  1. Our old friend David Kampf is the latest former Hawk to be placed on waivers.
  2. I hit submit reply when it was still 4-1. 😭
  3. We knew it was going to be bad with Boyd on short rest. It sucks, but this game isn’t over.
  4. After the initial disappointment of realizing I forgot it was the bye week, yes.
  5. On the contrary, I would find ESPN far more enjoyable if the mics never worked.
  6. Final score 7-3. Happ and Swanson both had themselves a game.
  7. Former Blackhawks Isaak Phillips, Matthew Highmore, and Josiah Slavin have all been placed on waivers.
  8. Maybe a Dawson Mercer autographed 8x10 and the Hawks would have to pay for the postage.
  9. Per Frank Seravalli, Lukas Reichel will likely be moved before the start of the regular season. I am honestly shocked he's lasted this long with the team.
  10. Korch looked good in the preseason. This is probably more about wanting to get him 20+ minutes a night.
  11. I am not worried about Boyd at all.
  12. Wild end to the Hawks game tonight. Dach with a clean hit that caused a scrum with about 3 minutes to go in the 3rd, no whistle, Oliver Moore kept playing and scored the go-ahead goal.
  13. For a moment you had me thinking cwood218 had organized a throng of anti-Jeantites.
  14. Am I missing something here? Why?
  15. Now, imagine you have a limited repair budget and instead of allocating a larger portion of that budget to a single issue, you choose to distribute it across multiple repairs, opting for cheaper, less reliable materials that will need replacement sooner. In doing so, you’re neglecting the fact that investing in high quality materials allows for more durable, long lasting repairs over time. Hence my point that you don’t build a competitive team in one draft/off-season. Your reasoning is flawed, as it ultimately results in higher costs and more frequent repairs over time. If you’ve ever remodeled a house, you know that it’s a long- term project if you want to do it right.
  16. No. Kickers, punters, and long snappers can't be compared with players who play 50+ offensive snaps in a game. That's just a silly argument. Jeanty's selection is justified as long as the Raiders believed he was the highest graded player on their board. Essentially, you're arguing that the Giants should have chosen Mike McGlinchey over Saquon Barkley solely because Saquon is a RB. The Giants also had a terrible O-line at the time. You're oversimplifying a complex decision-making process and overlooking the reality that constructing a competitive team extends beyond a single draft.
  17. Calling any 2025 pick a bad pick three games into their careers is waaaaay premature. You're oversimplifying a process that isn't by any measure simple. Most of the 1st round will end up busting or (to borrow a baseball term) become replacement level players, including those you would classify as being a "good use" of draft capital.
  18. Most people want to hate something more than they want to love something these days.
