  1. Jesus Christ, man. Please tell me you at least typed that on a keyboard and not your phone.
  2. Jacobs would fit in very nicely as a FA signing for the Saints.
  3. I’ve been reading a lot more lately on MiLB, and not seeing much positive about him as a prospect. Is there a possibility he’s a thing? He's the one that went bonkers in the Arizona Fall League. He's probably not a guy. But there's some chance. Yeah, the bonkers in the AFL and still hitting is why I ask. He just keeps hitting.

  5. In case you’re not watching, this Nets/Celtics series is really good. Also, Boston fans are kind of gross. It takes a lot of work to make Kyrie an sympathetic figure.
  6. I was thinking the high school exchange student in a fish-out-of-water 80’s teen comedy.
  7. Road unis, it’s not even close for me.
  8. Damn you Kyle. Don’t make me cheer for the Phillies.
  9. The Joey Votto open mike night on the ESPN broadcast was fascinating and unnerving at the same time. He just never shuts up, live talking to the booth through every pitch. Also, what a soulless shopping mall the Braves stadium is. I’ve been to a game there. The whole thing is like a chic mall in rich suburbia.
  10. Watching the dumb ass Braves championship banner raising makes me remember how cool the Cubs opener in 2017 was. God, the city of Atlanta is so cheesy.
  11. Jessica Mendoza got canned from Sunday Night Baseball while she was about the only good thing on there, but she is great on BBTN.
  12. Gotta say, the city and the Dome have put on a great show this weekend. Nobody puts on a show like New Orleans. Now, please don’t let the power go out.
  13. That could’ve been your lottery pick but now it belongs to the Pels. Eff off AD.
  14. I honestly am pretty surprised that the refs let Duke lose last night.
  15. Wow. Kansas is good, maybe the best team left.
  16. Orange Crush? I had no idea we had another adorable redhead.
  17. 100%. In the words of Payton's mentor, Bill Parcells, Sean sometimes "gets a little too cute". Don't get me wrong, he is maybe the best offensive playcaller of his generation, but sometimes he couldn't leave well enough alone. The double reverse to Reggie Bush in field goal range against the Bucs always comes to mind. Or the times when prime Brees would be rolling and Taysom would come in and kill all rhythm on offense. I am cautiously optimistic that a HC Dennis Allen with Pete Carmichael continuing as OC will be most of the good things about Payton without the head scratcher moments. Putting Taysom into a roll that fits his skill set is a great sign.
  18. I watched part of the game he started at QB last year, there may have been a couple. I never paid much attention to him, but my god he is athletic. I always said that he was great in a limited role. Think Randal El. Sean Payton fell in love with him and overused him. I do think he could be an awesome TE/slot.
  19. According to them, it's the SEC's inability to get CBS to renegotiate their TV contract. Years ago, the conference signed what was at the time a mega deal for CBS to broadcast football and some basketball. As years have passed, the SEC thinks that it should be getting more, thus a new deal with ESPN and ABC coming in 2026. Compounding that feud is that the SEC thinks that if they are bringing in two major markets before the current deal ends, they deserve even more money, but CBS isn't budging. Moser added that Texas has all the money in the world to buy their way out of the Big XII schedules and contracts but OU does not. If the SEC struck a new deal with CBS, the conference would basically foot the bill for OU to join right away.
  20. Post your Venmo and we can make sure you have enough cash to go out drinking every night and report back with more drunk coaches reports. My wife would not appreciate that. I actually had a pretty cool conversation with Porter Moser and some guy who’s assistant SEC basketball commissioner (something like that). CBS and lots of politics keeping OU and Texas from joining the SEC right away.
  21. Stopped for a drink on my my home. Multiple wasted college basketball coaches around town. No drunk Calipari or Pitino yet but on the lookout. The Hofstra head coach is a runaway train.
  22. RIP-Taysom Hill's QB career. As expected, the chatter last offseason regarding Taysom's contract was much ado about nothing. All that money is not guaranteed and only kicks in if he's the QB. I do think he couyld be a really useful TE, though.
