  1. Carter “wet blanket” Hawkins
  2. Speaking of terrible reporting, PlaymakerDave is slowly lowering the Cubs odds of Ohtnai. Once at 90%, now at 60%
  3. Thats terrible reporting
  4. I do find it interesting that Angels manager Ron Washington said he doesnt want to say anything because he doesn't want to "let the cat out of the bag". But could just be trolling
  5. Seems like he’s guessing Again I don’t think these guys have any idea what’s actually going on
  6. I get the desire to sign Ohtani, but we can't leave Carter Hawkins at the Winter Meetings by himself for too long. Who knows what trouble he'll get himself into?
  7. I knew I was forgetting someone. Yeah he's definitely an exception
  8. Just watching him play, every pass beyond 5 yards that he makes he looks like he's struggling to loft it over the defenders that are closing in on him. I watched a decent chunk of their game yesterday and once I noticed that its hard not to see it. Russell Wilson is the only QB in the NFL I can remember having any success despite being under 6 feet tall (Brees and Vick were exactly 6 feet).
  9. I dont like that rumor 😅
  10. There's rumblings connecting Cam Ward and OSU from what I've seen today
  11. Dunno but Julian Fleming also just entered the portal. Was a top 5 recruit in the nation (not just WR) a couple of years ago and was being utilized in OSUs offense though was a bit of a disappointment being behind MHJ and Egbuka on the depth chart. He made multiple big catches in the Michigan game. With the top guys both likely going pro there should have been a huge opportunity for him to take over as number 1 WR next year, though it’s possible Day told him that wasn’t going to happen.
  12. 8 would have been my preferred playoff. No byes or on campus games. P4 conference champions, top G5 champion, and 3 at-larges. Seeing the 12 team mocks out there, does anyone believe that Ole Miss or Penn State (sorry Derwood) should compete for the championship? Looking at it this year (with P5 champions since the Pac 12 still exists) 1. Michigan 2. Washington 3. Texas 4. Alabama 5. FSU 6. Georgia 7. Ohio State 8. Liberty In a deep year for contenders, that accurately captures the 7 teams that can legitimately win a championship (minor gripe about Oregon not making it but they lost to one of these teams twice so I don't hate leaving them out), plus even if its stupid ass Liberty, it gives G5 a legitimate chance to play for a title.
  13. Not sure if this is saying much but its a report about the Cubs
  14. I quit baseball if Ohtani goes to the Braves.
  15. Right....and now we have a month off before the next "round" which was kind of my point. Next year you'll get conference championship week, then the 1st round next week, QF the week after, etc etc. That said this complaint is purely for selfish fan entertainment reasons. It does bother me a little bit that some teams will be playing up to 17 games now
  16. How much does the doctor that did your TJS factor into where you choose to spend the next 10 years of your life?
  17. Panthers down 3 with the ball and 3:30 left. A win would move their pick to 2nd overall due to SOS tiebreaker with the Patriots edit: Bryce young throws an INT. My dude!
  18. Not sure if this was posted already but from Sahadev in the Athletic today. Emphasis on the last line
  19. Really can’t wait for the 12 team playoff. I hate the fact that we get all this excitement for the conference title game and then have to wait a month for the next meaningful game. I’ve never been a fan of watching the other bowl games even the ones Michigan played in so to me it feels like the whole season just pauses for a month until all of the sudden out of nowhere the season resumes with the biggest most important games. imagine having playoff games next weekend
  20. Re McCarthy I thought he was legit impressive early this year but he’s a deer in headlights lately with poor offensive line play and potential other intangibles affecting his play. wait what intangibles? Oh well it’s been well documented that he’s been pretty banged up the last month effecting his elusiveness among other things. What intangibles did you think I was referring to? Lol but yeah I’ve come way down on his prospect potential. I think he’ll be an NFL player but to be honest he could spend another year at Michigan to refine his game. He can look absolutely spectacular at times and head scratching at others. Pass on him for the Bears
  21. In the hunt!!
  22. not really news at all but he speaks the truth
  23. Multiple $500m offers is crazy
