  1. Wonder what the story with Ringo is. The NFL loves every other player from that UGA defense
  2. Lol who is this fucking clown
  3. ESPN’s app has him currently sitting 7th on the best available. Agree he’s probably gonna slip to tomorrow though.
  4. Achane to the Dolphins. They got some serious speed on that team.
  5. Torrance, Hyatt, Ringo all still on the board as I type. Which means they’re going to draft someone no one has heard of.
  6. I think it's fine. He's basically Jonathan Hankins but more athletic and a much higher ceiling. Should be a good run plugger right away, with the potential to develop some pass rush ability eventually. Fact of the matter is, there doesn't seem to be a lot of difference makers in the late 1st round range in this draft. Looking at who was picked after Smith and who is left, there's not a player that we should all be screaming about them drafting. Clearly all the TE stuff was a smokescreen, which the Cowboys have shown themselves to be pretty good at. I think they looked at the TEs and said none of these guys are truly freak difference makers. It's a solid TE class but there's no Kyle Pitts here. That's a defensible position. The guy out of Georgia is pretty interesting to me, but even he would have been kind of a reach at 26.
  7. I’m a Texans neutral (Cowboys fan currently living in Houston) and I really like it for y’all. Got cornerstone players on both sides of the ball tonight.
  8. There's a new house about 10 doors down from mine that is basically identical to mine - same builder, same floorplan. The new one has an extra half bath mine doesn't. It sold in late December for $X. Honestly I think the people overpaid, too. Other very similar houses sold earlier in 2022 for like $X - $60k. So of course Harris County appraises us at $X + $100k. Uh, what? Uploaded some comps into Harris County's system, including the new house and those earlier 2022 sales. They came back and knocked me down to...exactly $X, to the cent. So, according to Harris County, a buyer with $X to spend on January 1 could have bought a brand new house with an extra half bath, or spent that same money on my house that's been lived in for two years. Makes total sense.
  9. Mattress Mack in shambles
  10. I think he beats Trump pretty easily. On the flip side, I think DeSantis would be favored over Joe. The age thing will be a big issue, and honestly I don't think that's out of bounds. How many people in their mid-80s do you know who are energetic and 100% sharp? I guess nobody trusts Kamala to get it done? I don't know a ton about her, but she must be a dud behind the scenes or something.
  11. The average Fox News viewer has no idea what a podcast is. Maybe he can try AM radio.
  12. 93 pitches through 7. They gonna let him keep going?
  13. Agree that establishing a base will be very important, but $100k feels unrealistic. For a roster of 85 players, that requires ~35,000 people giving $20/mo in perpetuity. Maybe I'm way too pessimistic. Feels like the "best" model is to just be Oregon or Miami and have a single billionaire donor who has both the money and the desire to be at the top of the food chain year-in and year-out.
  14. I can't post tweets from work, but per Jeff Sullivan on Twitter, DeGrom said he "probably" could have kept going and "hopes" to make his next start. Fingers crossed.
  15. sent you a counter and a PM
  16. I’ll look at a counter tomorrow when I’m on a computer
  17. I wonder if the future is kind of like what pro sports has (mostly) become - push your chips all-in for a short title window, then dial it back and "rebuild" for several years.
