I dont believe in santa claus, let open our present already

I’ll say it until he’s in the pro bowl. And likely after that. #ilikemitch

HC Ya, no chance Eagles would let him take an OC interview anyways. Hes a QB coach, i doubt the Iggles could block a move up. That being said, he and Pace would be one of the youngest GM/HC combos in the league

Is Flip your choice for HC? OC?

18-24 230 yards 2 td's and 1 int and I'd be good with Mitchell's first year

sure, but they cant take a guy off the IR, play him, and put him back on the IR for the same damn injury. That's akin to the Dodgers using the 10 day to expand their roster. And the fact the NFL okay'd it is exactly the issue. they scream parity but play the favorites that go against parity. What other team has gotten away with this? the Dodgers didn't get in trouble for that, and they legitimately just made up injuries. I'm sure you remember when the Vikings ruled Favre out on a Saturday before they played the Bears on a Monday night, and then played after being ruled out. Nothing happened to them and that was far more egregious than what the Packers did. I don't see what the big deal is when they placed Rodgers on IR for Joe horsefeathering Callahan in two completely meaningless games. Corey Wooten ended Favres career that game before the Vikings had the opportunity to put him back on the IR for the same injury, so not quite the same. In fact, not even close to the same

Im not sure that is done “all the time” maybe not all the time, but it's not like it's an uncommon practice. teams place players on IR at the end of the year to get roster spots open, even if they're not 100% injured. kind of like in baseball when teams make up an injury to get someone on the DL. And again, the NFL has to approve whether or not a player can be placed on IR, which they did both times for Rodgers. sure, but they cant take a guy off the IR, play him, and put him back on the IR for the same damn injury.

I don't get what the issue is. Teams manipulate IR all the time as the season ends. The NFL had to approve Rodgers being sent to IR the second time anyway, and obviously they did. Im not sure that is done “all the time”
-
any reality to the idea that the Packers will be forced to release Rodgers for taking him off the IR, then back on for the same injury? Or is the nfl just going to overlook that?

i wish i knew whether this was a bit or you just literally never have any idea what the hell is going on primarily the former. sometimes the latter.

Sounds like heroin combined with creep.

weren't you the guy who knew the girl with the weird john mayer story, or am i thinking of another poster? Nope, that was me; she was dating alterna soft-rock never was Howie Day at the time, and Day and Mayer were nobodies playing shows together and she says that on the regular Mayer would come back to the dressing room where she was waiting after performing and would just sit or lay down on the ground and just stare at her in silence until someone else came into the room. Was this in his heroin faze?

Wooop looking forward to this -
Who who who TELL ME WHO ARE YU

Yeah, I guess in that case I pass on both of them. I agree that Darvish is the better value at that point, but I don't actually think it's necessarily good value. if your plan is to develop young hitters and buy established veteran pitchers, you have to accept the fact that you're not going to be getting awesome value on the pitching side. the cubs really need another good starting pitcher, and there aren't a ton of options out there. i'm all about the future and longevity, but i also want to be really good next year. Yup. You can get the “value” ones year to year, but you need the aces too

Are there any big name pitchers available next offseason? Who would the most likely ones be?
