  1. I'm not terribly concerend about any unit on the team, but if I had to rank the areas that I'm the most hesitant about going into the season, I think I would rank them: 1. Offensive Line - they are certainly talented, but it's hard for me to believe that we'll just replace 4 starters (call it 3.5 if you want to give Goosby credit for starting some of the most important games last year and playing well in those starts) without some sort of issues. 2. Secondary - again, I like the talent we have back there but it's hard for me to believe that we can lose Jahdae and Mukuba and just keep churning along without any issues. This is offset by the fact that I expect the front 7 to be spectacular and not allow opposing QB's much time to operate. 3. Running Backs - not super concerned, but i think the ceiling for the room overall depends upon the health of CJ Baxter. 4. Defensive Tackles - really not concerend at all. Every year we worry about the DT's we have to replace and every year it feels like the the DT's perform just as well as the guys they are replacing. And again any worries about DT's is immediately offset by how deep and explosive the other positions in the front 7 will be. This is going to be a very stacked team that doesn't have many warts. We are officially at the point where we are a true football factory and should just keep churing out great players to replace departing great players each year.
  2. i'm afraid this is going to be universal to every public institution in a red state. some will jump in more willingly than others, but this looks to be the direction things are heading.
  3. They comped Benjamin to Earl Thomas on Coffee and Football one day this week. If the comps are Earl or Mathieu, then yes he should absolutely be a top priority for Texas and he'd immediately become my favorite player in the class if he committed.

    that was the cherry on top of the sundae. so freaking good.
  5. just looked at the field for the Maui Invitational this year. doesn't seem to be nearly as loaded as it typically is.

    most things that haven't been relevant for over 20 years are given $1.5 billion, correct?
  7. i was going to say something harsher, but decided that i'll just say that he got the reception he deserved in his final wwe appearance:

    holy shit that was incredible. fucking amazing.
  9. i saw it yesterday and agree that it didn't really have a firm grasp of what it wanted to be or what it was trying to say. it was entertaining and intense at times, but also required quite the suspension of disbelief in others. Joaquin Phoenix was excellent, but that is to be expected going in. it was a very, very strange movie in that it has sat with me ever since i've seen it but i'm still not exactly sure how i feel about it.
  10. i don't know if it will wow you but i just sent an offer.
  11. Pacquiao looked pretty solid for 46 last night. Barrios is not one of the current greats, but he's not a tomato can either and he's 16 years younger than Pacquiao. I'm not as upset with the draw as some on Twitter are, but that was definitely a fight between two pretty evenly matched guys and I think that says a lot for Pacquiao.
  12. Anybody at the top of the standings who is pretty sure they're going to be in the playoffs want to trade something that can help me right now for Spencer Schwellenbach? I love him but I need to win every single category that is possible between now and whenever the playoffs start and I don't have the luxury of waiting for him to return from the IL. I'm probably too far behind as it is but I've been winning some weeks lately and want to make a go at the playoffs.

    we have similar tastes as that's been the standout for me today.
  14. yeah that was super impressive. agree with everything that is being said about Usyk - guy is awesome and we're lucky to have him around.
  15. BigOrange1 replied to mdmost's topic in Music
    of the songs they didn't release as singles beforehand, Is There Anybody Out There is the early standout for me after a couple of listens.

    Stringer's fate was sealed the moment Omar decided not to finish off Brother Mouzone late in season 2.
  17. i think it's cool he went back to Portland rather than ring chase as some washed up role player somewhere.
  18. I feel the same way. I pay almost no attention to him outside of Gameday, but he has done a lot to help revive that show. He and Saban have been excellent additions that had made the show much better than it was 4-5 years ago.
  19. the way that Bobby has been talking about him lately made me think he knows something a lot of us don't yet know. hope that is correct.
  20. i'm fine trading him, i just don't want to give him away for nothing. i'm fine dragging this into the season if necessary. he's curenttly an 8th-9th man, not anyone who is going to be significantly relied upon. his being upset with his role is not going to disrupt team chemistry or anything like that.
  21. Man, I don't know. I don't like Giannis, but if I could get him for Sengun, Eason, Whitmore, filler and picks, it'd be very hard not to make that move: PG - FVV, Sheppard SG - Amen SF - KD, DFS PF - Giannis, Jabari C - Adams, Capela That is a very complete and versatile roster that would be a serious championship contender for the foreseeable future. Could probably use one more shooter but that is picking knits. It’s probably not on the table anymore now that the Bucks just signed Turner to a long term deal and I’m not sure they’d want Sengun and Turner as their two key pieces, but its definitely worth considering if its on the table.
