  1. This backup Tennessee QB has a fudgin GUN for an arm
  2. Clemson kicker has missed 3 FG in the first 18 minutes of the game
  3. Who am I thinking of? Neagle?
  4. What does this mean Sign a guaranteed, multi-year deal and then have an injury that makes him miss huge amounts of time (or he never plays again). If the medicals are enough to scare off one team and give the second team pause, it's significant enough to worry about a long-term contract
  5. He could be Mike Hampton v2.0
  6. Pirates sign the corpse of Rich Hill

    NFL Week 16

    If the playoffs started today, three teams at or below .500 would be in the field.
  8. I thought that was still Elway (thus my comment)

    Sorry if this has been posted. Sunday Ticket is moving to YouTube TV.
  10. Hackett fired in Denver. Elway should be fired too, but he has plot armor.

    Broncos fire Hackett. Terrible hire to begin with.

    If the season ended today, Jacksonville would be the #4 seed in the AFC

    Lions are completely [expletive] the bed
  14. I’m in Florida, so no Bears game in TV. This state sucks in every way.
  15. That’s a lot for Conforto coming off a terrible season
  16. Reds are eating $20M+ to DFA Moustakas
  17. Barnhart is the definition of “meh”
  18. So, is this deal still valid?
  19. Sexy, and with no talent around him. Imagine what his numbers would look like if he were on a team like Philly, or basically any other team with NFL talent. Our imagination is all we have, as this dumb team will never get him Philly-level talent
  20. Nah, the 100 Million he's giving them in luxury tax payments will buy him plenty of goodwill 1/29th of $100 million isn't enough to offset Cohen exposing their grift
  21. He just became the least popular owner at the next owner's meetings
  22. Cohen is paying everyone in Crypto, so the actual value of the payroll will be $27 million by 2025
  23. [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
  24. That's true. That's also true in Alabama, Clemson, etc.
  25. Yea I was admittedly surprised as I looked up thr overtime rules and found out wasn't a golden goal situation. Sounds like they did it for a while before abandoning again. Is there some purist arguement against it? Golden goal makes for terrible soccer in most cases because teams play so conservatively for the fear of that one slip up. In theory that should be better with the current extra time rules, but often it's similar and teams are just waiting for PKs, which aren't great but save us from endless bad and static play. Player health/conditioning becomes a concern at a certain point too. My favorite variant on this is playing golden goal, but every few minutes(let's say 5) both teams take a player off the field. So by the end of the normal 30 minutes of extra time you're playing 6 v 6 which makes basically every possession a transition moment because of how much space is everywhere at all times. It also encourages teams to go for goal when they're closer to full strength before the chaos of being short handed sets in. Yeah, I was curious if this would work. The 3v3 OT in hockey is a fun way to open up the ice and allow more scoring opportunities. Is the soccer field just SO big that reducing the players becomes ridiculous?
