  1. Maybe Lebron thinks he can manipulate some sign and trade to Phoenix? I assume he doesn’t want to (1) play with his son and (2) win enough to opt out of his player option and sign with PHX for the vet minimum (which is the easiest way for him to play with Bronny). Trying to make some stupid super team is pretty on brand for him, and KD.
  2. So Bronny only works out for Lakers and Suns but Rich Paul says they are open to anyone? Then today he says they will not accept a two way contract that is pretty standard for second round picks. Basically if you aren’t the Lakers or Suns, you have to take him in the first round….or let’s finagle this so the Lakers or Suns can wait and take him late in the second round.
  3. It’s been a good offseason, but I wouldn’t give him an A+ after needlessly extending Joe Mixon and cutting years off Diggs’s contract. Time will tell if either or both moves to “make them happy” translates to above expected performance on the field. I think Diggs was a behavior risk before and after the contract change. And if it was about putting Diggs on a one year “prove it” deal, that is literally what we had with Mixon and now I’d put money on him mailing it in after getting the last decent size bag of his career.
  4. Good chance the baby was conceived in his conversion minivan. Awesome that the greatness of the Raiders will continue for another generation!
  5. “The second man to die, who was 77, suffered "rapid-onset confusion and aggression," the researchers said, and died within a month despite treatment.” These symptoms describe me in the 3rd quarters of many 2022 Texas football games.
  6. Thanks to TexZilla588 for leading our celebrations of SuperSizeMe being one of the greatest documentaries of all time and acknowledging that we are all worse off without Morgan Spurlock.
  7. I just really hate sand and nerd group think that ROTJ is somehow a much worse movie than ANH.
  8. Y’all dorks from the 70’s love to shit on ROTJ for the Ewoks’ 5 minutes of screen time in what might the most emotional and character evolving movie of the franchise. It brings conclusion to Vader and Palpatine, and the nerds forget it also gave you Slave Leia, whose action figure you used to beat it to every day after you got off the school bus. ESB and ROTJ are 1a and 1b to me. In my stupid opinion, ANH is only loved and important because it was first, not because it was a better movie than the others. I actually rewatch Episodes 1, 3, and 7 far more than ANH, where Luke is a whiney sand boy, the first half of the movie drags on, and gave us a Obi Wan-Vader duel that is epically retarded in hindsight.
  9. So Cardale won’t even have to pretend to “play school” anymore?
  10. Like a turkey, aggy always gets roasted, fried, or smoked every Thanksgiving
  11. Extreme weather is fun to talk about, but Green Bay cold isn’t (near as likely) going to harm a player or fan the way 110F heat index games. The late August through late September games in the South should be played at night IMO.
  12. 7U team finished season off 16-0 with +191 run diff. The Space Cowboys let them go on the field Sunday before the game, and they got to hang with Chas McCormick, Hensley, Leon, et al. for 10 minutes and get their gear signed. Jose Urquidy was the starting pitcher. Urquidy appeared to neither speak English nor pitch baseballs well. Unforgettable experience for the boys.
  13. I like Goff and agree with Detroit on resigning him. I asked who they thought they were bidding against and if they could’ve got the deal done for closer to the $45/year that Cousins just got, or $33/year that Baker Mayfield just signed (yes, Goff > Baker). They probably spent an extra $10/year that they could’ve used elsewhere at OL, DL, DB. They just spent a lot on WR.
  14. Was another team about to swoop in and offer him $50m x 4 years? Who would…Raiders? Giants, Steelers, or Dolphins a year from now if they ditch their current guys? Seems like the Lions were bidding against themselves and now will be house poor trying to remain competitive.
  15. You can play the entire second string. It’s about the plays that get called. Are they cohesive and aggressive and represent plays that any of the backups, not just the QB, may be faced with when it’s their turn to play with the 1’s? Or is it just pointless dive plays to kill clock?
  16. A key to “meaningful snaps” has always been letting QB2 run the full playbook and try to score. Running draws and off tackle to RB3 doesn’t get your QB2 ready to step in when needed. Mack was the softest, but most of our coaches have been too “classy” to do it much. Screw the other team’s coach if it’s our backup O still putting up points.
  17. Re: Garrett Gilbert…Mack was pissed because VY got screwed out of a Heisman in ‘05, Colt in ‘08, and the ‘08 team got screwed out of the BCS championship game, so in ‘09 he decided to leave Colt in games for style points. Gilbert could’ve played much more and seemed somewhat competent against Alabama and maybe not have been ruined for the rest of his time as a Longhorn. Keeping QB1 in rhythm is a valid point. Unconventional idea that will be deemed stupid: Let Arch play the opening drive of games, then hand it over to Ewers for the rest of the game until it is decided, then Arch can come back in to finish it out. Better idea: blow people the fuck out so Arch can play most of the second half of games.

  19. Y’all have trained meta ai well. I asked it for “disappointed aggy” and got this:
  20. We dominated while using 4 different kids at every position and a different batting order every night. Looking forward to the double jump to 8U-AAA next season. The league says they are enforcing a rule of 3 players max per team on the All-Star team. I’ve got 8 kids who would be the best player on any other team. Pretty sure an “all star” team comprised of players from the other AA squads would still get beat by my regular roster. I don’t know what argument to make would get them to bend their policy, but they clearly won’t be fielding the best team by blocking 5 kids who hit 0.750+ with good gloves in favor of kids from bottom feeders that strikeout half the time in coach pitch.
