  1. I'm clarifying, because I know jack and horsefeathers about the draft and signings and how it all works. Which is fine, especially in this weird year, but by the time you asked there were about 20 posts talking about where he would slot in to our system, how he is going to rank, etc. with minimal to no discussion on signability concerns. Mostly just giving you a hard time, but....come on, pick up some context. Raisin's response is what threw me (and he has since clarified)
  2. 0% chance he signs, or 0% chance he opts for college? Derwood, read the room. I'm clarifying, because I know jack and horsefeathers about the draft and signings and how it all works.
  3. The normal % of most prep kids picked in the 1st round, close to 0%. 0% chance he signs, or 0% chance he opts for college?
  4. MLB Network said he was committed to Oklahoma. What are the chances he signs?
  5. He's asking how there are only 4 black head coaches in the league. Most head coaches work their way through the coaching ranks under other head coaches, and Shanahan only has 8 black assistant coaches on his staff. My point is that he can help by giving more non-white candidates opportunities on his own staff you think a staff being 36% black has a lack of representation? I'm saying that Kyle can help solve the problem by giving more non-white coaches a chance to work their way up the coaching ranks. And yes, I think 36% is a lack of representation when more than 36% of the players are black.

  7. Only 8 of Shanahan's 22 coaches are black, so....
  8. Doesn't each poll have the ability to set a limit of days it's open? Maybe TC set a limit?
  9. Because they don’t mean it?
  10. https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/29225074/nhl-adopts-24-team-playoff-season-resumes
  11. It was both a "Jordan is the GOAT!!!" piece AND a "did you know what a giant dick Jordan was???" at the same time
  12. It definitely wasn’t glorifying Jordan.
  13. Were any of those things untrue, though?
  14. Name calling AND a Simpsons video. Trying REALLY hard to be Mojo right now, aren't you? It's cute
  15. We define "dominance" differently. That's ok, you don't have to be right all the time. the dominance of that team was established in the damn 103 win regular season you clod And now name calling. You feeling okay? Quarantine got you down?
  16. it's cool that you totally understand, after all these years on this particular board, that the relative dominance and/or quality of a baseball team can be boiled down to 4 games. it is clear that you have read and learned a lot on here and probably don't spend your time horsefeathers and skimming past all the discussions. We define "dominance" differently. That's ok, you don't have to be right all the time.
  17. It's cool that team is on the list, but going down 3 game to 1 in the World Series doesn't feel "dominant" to me
  18. I actually prefer it this way. I wouldn't want to hear from him... Steve Kerr on the other hand. Yeah, I wish they featured him way more. It would have been worth it just to see Jordan watching Krause on the the director's tablet and laughing and laughing and laughing....
  19. Jerry Krause is a giant ass face, but its a shame he didn't live long enough to contribute to this doc
  20. It doesn't matter, because Phil wouldn't come back, and Jordan (claimed) he'd never play for anyone but Phil (until he played for the Wizards, but let's forget that every happened) Right, I'm more referring to what MJ said at the end when he said everyone would have come back including Phil and Scottie if Reinsdorf asked And what I'm saying is that Jordan can say that, but I don't see any way Phil would have gone back with Krause for another year, even if everyone else came back
  21. It doesn't matter, because Phil wouldn't come back, and Jordan (claimed) he'd never play for anyone but Phil (until he played for the Wizards, but let's forget that every happened)
  22. Fun fact: I went to look up Ball's stats in New Orleans, all of ESPN's NBA roster and stats pages are broken links. Tey've given up (lol)
  23. I had never heard the "five guys might have poisoned Jordan's pizza" story
  24. I'm sure NFL fans will have nothing negative to say about this "draft picks for diversity" plan
