  1. Who said he's a hero? Let's face it, most of the players we like from the present and the past are jackasses and horsefeatherss. Short of committing a horrendous crime like Wander Franco, or being in the nearly unprecedented tier of horsefeatherss like Schilling/Huff, no one should be blackballed from their organization.
  2. I still have no idea why it's a negative that he broke down in tears after that game. If anything I love that he cares so much that losing caused that kind of response.
  3. Yeah, I'd more or less agree with this. Really the only issues they share is that they both try to play hero ball and it leads to turnovers. If Caleb learns to take what the defense gives and throw the ball away when there isn't anything there, he's going to be a vastly better player. I still believe that Fields has nearly unprecedented tools and therefore ceiling, but Williams is the much more likely of the 2 to be an above average or better QB.
  4. Probably right since they lost the head to head vs Marquette and Arizona and I doubt Tennessee's loss moves them down far enough. Also Iowa State just took out Houston so they might even sneak into a 1 now.
  5. Horton has that kind of upside.
  6. While I didn't expect a 3rd or anything, I'm baffled as to why Pickett netted what he did and Justin only brings back a 6th with potential to be a 4th. I mean Pickett super sucks at least as much as Fields.
  7. With their 3 seed more or less locked, I wonder if they have a shot at a 2 if they beat wisky tomorrow.
  8. For a 6th they should have just made him the back up. A 6th is damn near just cutting him.
  9. That is an embarrassing as hell return.
  10. He used amphetamines aka "Greenies" as did many players of his era.
  11. No one should condone Sammy cheating, but lets not pretend just about the entire league was doing the same thing at that time. Even beloved HoF legends like Hank Aaron cheated, but I don't see anyone trying to run him out of town. Sammy messed up, he knows he messed up and apologized. it's not like he's a monster like Wander Franco. Meanwhile players like Frank Thomas and Jeff Bagwell sit in the hall of fame despite playing in the same steroid driven era because people have for some reason decided that they didn't take steroids.
  12. After yesterday's games, Illinois probably locks a 3 seed with a win today. #5 Tennessee, #6 Arizona, #8 Creighton, #9 Kentucky and #11 Duke all went down early in their conference tournaments.
  13. Hopefully he feels the same way I do about Rodgers and let's people have a free run at that jackass.
  14. I'd let them have 9 and one of the 2025 2nds for 11 and 23. Not sure that would get them who they'd want though.
  15. They're really going to trade 1.1 aren't they?
  16. Honestly I think they could completely fill their needs with their 4 picks. Draft Williams at 1.1, Draft Turner at 1.9, Draft Xavier Legette or Sedrick Van Pran in the 3rd and draft either Van Pran or Roman Wilson in the 4th. They could still probably use a Dline man, but I think this covers all the major needs.
  17. Mississippi St is blowing the doors off #5 Tennessee right now.
  18. If we're moving 9, please send it to Indy for #15 and #46 then grab Verse and either Ladd McKonkey or Tyler Nubin. Please and thanks.
  19. I hope not either,, but doubts are creeping in.
  20. One of Latu/Turner/Verse will be there at 15.
  21. Well that's exciting, but 1.1 or 1.9 is 100% getting traded.
  22. God that would be a criminal offense and such a huge waste of trade value. At that point Caleb's trade value is far less than it was when you drafted him.
  23. While I'm cool with signing an actual center, I can't believe Poles is going to depend entirely on the draft to fill Edge and WR2/3. You absolutely cannot entire the season where you're one injury away from Tyler Scott being your #2 WR.
  24. Why add a few top tier free agents when you can add a dozen mediocre to crappy ones?
  25. A run, I can sleep now.
