  1. 5 years of rookie wage contract with potential star WR with no history of being a malcontent? Diggs having a 50-50 chance of melting down once he realizes he’s going to get less than 30% of the targets? Even if Diggs plays well, he’s a one year rental, I’d expect Mitchell or Worthy to be more than capable as WR3 with Tank, Nico, and Schultz. [this is all fan fiction. Caserio wouldn’t flip Diggs] Effectively they’d be trading the Vikings 2025 2nd rounder for this year’s #32. Chiefs wouldn’t do it unless they thought Diggs guaranteed them their 3 peat and they had to pay a premium because Buffalo wouldn’t trade him directly to them.
  2. Can we quick flip Diggs to the Chiefs for the #32 pick and take Mitchell or Worthy instead?
  3. Can confirm. $19 per beer (both big boy draught Karbach and the tall boy cans of whatever). $8 hot dog, $13 corndog, $15 chicken “tenders” and fries. 🤮
  4. Took my boys to the game today. I really believed they were going to take the lead in the 7th and later they’d pull it out in the 9th. Bats suck, Junction Jack out front shoulda told me.
  5. How often does it get covered by insurance under 50 without symptoms or personal/family history? Seems like it becoming common in younger people but they don’t tell people to do it until they turn 50.
  6. 7U AA team off to 5-0 start, +64 run differential. All your rec AA baseball are belong to us.
  7. I was talking about the new kickoff. The ball has to land behind the return team’s line and I think it’s dead until a returner touches it. I was proposing with the new kickoff format, to make it a live ball as soon as it touches the ground or any return team player and could be dropped into the neutral zone between the lines, rather than behind both lines.
  8. Exactly. Who wasn’t nervous about him given how Ohio St QBs had fared in the NFL? I’m sure today everyone will say it was obvious he was a better passer than Bryce Young and will provide their 2022-2023 message board receipts to prove it. CJ apparently was an accurate QB that could’ve hit tight windows but didn’t need to in college.
  9. You always have to wonder about a college QB who throws to wide open future first round pick receivers, is he an awesome QB or just in a very favorable position?
  10. I think if the ball lands in the end zone or hits short of the landing zone (including hitting kicking team players), the ball comes all the way out to the 35.
  11. Why can’t they make it where the kicker can drop it anywhere past the 35 (or the area between where the two teams line up) and it’s a recoverable, live ball? Keeps the onside and surprise onside still in play.
  12. Manfred and MLB won’t do shit against the Dodgers or Yankees. What they say happened is the least logical and about every other explanation would terrible for them. Their changing stories a couple times makes it even less credible. That was a well crafted denial written by the Dodger lawyers though.
  13. Both LOL. Kindergarten age kids went from whiffing to at least making contact. But the foam covered pvc did not last long after real baseballs were mixed in. It worked with tee drills, but got most value from soft toss using soft balls.
  14. I too am frugal so during our fall 6U season, I went to Home Depot and bought some rope, pvc pipe, pipe insulation foam, and black duck tape. I made a poor man’s version for every boy on the team. They were as sturdy as the real ones, but worked fine when the kids were hitting squish balls or tennis balls to work on their swing. Inevitably most of the boys started hitting baseballs with them and they exploded.
  15. WTF they are allowing video review taken from iPads and cell phones? Can you start protesting balls and strikes soon based on Grandma’s tik tok reel?
  16. Not sure if spoiler, probably addressed in first 5 minutes of first episode: Some of the things you mentioned about Jedi or rebels getting their hands dirty, yeah but it was always a greater good thing. I think there are people out there who want to rewrite it like the Jedi were actually the villains, or at least non-good misguided force zealots. They were clearly ignorant, but I don’t believe they ever had bad motives. Painting the sith, night sisters, or other dark side users as the heroes is some Lucifer worship type shit.
  17. Read some nerd reviews yesterday who say this creator loved The Last Jedi and pitched to Kathleen Kennedy that they could redeem that movie by exploring more on the themes that the Jedi are wrong, or bad, or morally ambiguous. I don’t know why Disney keeps coming back to this. Andor showed you can make great SW content that is not related to Skywalkers. You don’t have to tear down motifs and characters that people have loved for 40+ years and upon which your franchise is based.
  18. You jest, but I heard they made Morph into a trans and the creators intended for there to be ambiguity in “his” relationship with Wolverine.
  19. Onside kicks are an awesome part of football, and they already hamstrung it by forcing half the kicking team players to line up on each side of the kicker. This proposal eliminates the possibility of a surprise onside. I would be open to a safer set up like they discussed with b both teams lined up farther down field, but they should get creative and work a way to do onside kicks into it.
  20. My boys can’t wait for their first surly tailgate of the SEC era. They started offering beer to any coed who walked by.
  21. Not so bold prediction: they left Yoda out of the trailer so there can be an ooo and ah moment when he comes on screen. This period is probably peak for him #nocane
  22. All true points. But the question was if ATL was better off reaching for a QB at #8 or blowing a lot of draft capital to get up in the top 3 for Mayes or Daniels, vs. signing Cousins and taking best player available with their draft pick. It isn’t a slam dunk that signing Cousins was the incorrect move.
  23. The recipe isn’t a mystery: good QB, good OL, good DL, and as many playmakers at WR and DB that you can fit in your salary cap. Since non-rookie contract QBs are the most expensive, drafting a star QB gives the most roster flexibility. OTOH first round QBs are busting at like a 75% rate in recent years, so do you want to play those odds? What was ATL supposed to do, draft JJ McCarthy or Bo Nix at #8 and hope for the best? Trade 3 first round picks to the Redskins or Patriots and take their chances with Maye or Daniels? Signing Cousins (who is a known commodity) allows them to keep their picks and get a difference maker at WR or DE with the #8 pick. 4 of the last 9 Super Bowls were won by acquired QBs with a well rounded roster (Manning, Foles, Brady, Stafford).
