So the deadline has arrived today, March 7. The Ravens and Lamar Jackson were unable to reach an agreement on a long term contract, and so the Ravens have placed the “nonexclusive” franchise tag on him, which is valued at $32 million a year. Of course, nobody really believes Lamar is going to play on… Read More I Wouldn’t Give Lamar Jackson the Contract He’s Asking For
I am not a fan of Ja Morant. After a couple of years in the NBA, it became clear that, while very talented, he was an immature showboat who talked a big game despite not really accomplishing much. The Grizzlies, largely due to Ja and Dillon Brooks, have become the most hateable team in the… Read More Ja Morant is Ruining His Career
Now that we are in combine/draft season, I have started thinking about the whole process and how difficult it is to draft quality players consistently. No position is more important than quarterback, and yet no position is more difficult to get right. There are teams like the Browns, Bears and Jets who have been searching… Read More If you want a franchise QB, you had better have a very high draft pick
The new-look Los Angeles Lakers are now 5-2 since the Westbrook trade. On Sunday, they completed the largest comeback the NBA has seen this season, erasing a 27-point second quarter deficit and beating the Dallas Mavericks 111-108. There were good things to say about just about everyone on the Lakers squad in that game, including… Read More Health is the Only Thing Standing in the Way of the Lakers and a Championship
In 15 years, people won’t talk about this call when they bring up this Super Bowl. But they should. It just feels like the Chiefs always get the calls in those “you just can’t throw a flag there, in that moment” moments. It was ticky-tack, weak, soft, bullshit, rigged–whatever you want to call it. It… Read More Worst Flag in Super Bowl History Ruins Otherwise Classic Showdown
I want to pick the Eagles. They have a stupidly great roster and have the ability to absolutely smash the Chiefs. But we all know how this game is going to go: Fox is going to debut some terrible new TV scoreboard format that everyone on social media will complain about. Probably -250 odds on… Read More Super Bowl LVII Prediction
Last night, I was up late watching some analysis of the Russell Westbrook trade and listening in on some Lakers Twitter spaces (which are the an absolute riot, by the way). I was just about to fall asleep when someone in the Twitter space said the Nets and Suns were nearing a deal for Kevin… Read More 🚨 Kevin Durant Has Been Traded to the Nets | Thoughts on the New and Improved LA Lakers
The Chiefs will be wearing white next Sunday when they square off against the Eagles for all the marbles. And 17 of the past 23 Super Bowls have been won by the team wearing white unis in the game. So the Chiefs have this in the bag, right? Well, not exactly… You will see why… Read More The Super Bowl Team Wearing White Unis has Won 17 of the last 23 Super Bowls… With a Catch
It’s official. Straight from the horse’s mouth: I really thought he was going to come back and play another year. I thought he would take one last crack at it in San Fran. I thought there was no way he could go out like he went out. This past year in Tampa was miserable. They… Read More Tom Brady Has Officially Retired, “For Good This Time” — Is Brady Truly The GOAT? An In-Depth Examination of His Legacy
I was watching Brett Kollman’s video on how the Bears can pull off their rebuild this year. He was saying the Bears should trade with the Colts, giving Indy the #1 pick with the Bears taking over the #4 spot in the draft. The price for this for Indy would be obviously the 4th pick,… Read More I Don’t Think the Bears Will Be Able to Trade Down in the Draft
