dvoa for individual performances seems dumb when some of them are gonna be "remember that time someone had 60 yards against literally the greatest defense in nfl history?" "no"

i mean, that's a month and a half of doing poo poo. per the NFL important dates tracker says mid july with cuts on september 5 which is basically the same.

overthecap has details up, usually they take a day or two to get the info but this was quick:

https://overthecap.com/player/patrick-mahomes/5594/

positive cap savings after 2022, 0 dead money after 2024.

I don't think anybody has talked about how Leigh Steinberg virtually came out of forced retirement for alcoholism/bankruptcy and one of his early clients on the way back in was Mahomes.


Have to think this skyrockets him right back to the top of the list.

what list? the poo poo list?

This is my point, that guarantees suck, the signing bonus sucks, and what good is it if you have 60MM in salary coming in in 2027 when you can get cut before that with 0 dead money

I read jenkins' quote as a direct refutation to the fake hitler quote.

It seems like everyone is apt to treat the black hebrew israelite stuff as a sideshow, and has been doing that for a while.

LOTR is basically an enduring footage roll for tourists and football would be like fifteen seconds of tony romo saying how great the golf is in NZ and maybe a blimp shot on MNF.

Also why pay NZ a billion dollars when you can get a tax cut and a free stadium from somewhere in texas/florida/arizona and not actually have to deal with any actual quarantining.

Arizona and florida could probably convert all their baseball spring training fields into fooball fields.

hifi
Jul 25, 2012

they're all doing spring training in their home cities. I think with the diamondbacks specifically it's at chase field too.

the cost of the fields is whatever and they'd have like... months to fix it

When does spring training start? It's before Spring actually starts, I know that.

feb 12 but you'd think the super bowl would automatically be at the cardinals or some florida team's stadium

So they'd have a month and a half assuming all the post season games are played at universities who lost too many students to covid to continue the season.

they've fixed sod on bye weeks. poorly, but a month and a half gives you a lot of time to fix the mistakes.

If the Chiefs can manage to give their quarterback the ~biggest contract in the history of sports~ and then also lock up the other key pieces, I really don't want to hear any other team using the salary cap as an excuse for failing to get a deal done ever again lol

it's easy, just get guys that are ok with basically 0 signing bonus

an interesting thing is that today a new batch of trademark applications were published for public consumption and there are 0 from the "pro-football inc" company that owns the redskins, or the attorney that does all (?) the nfl trademarks.

not really sure i believe that it's sexual assault and drugs and also somehow angled so that other owners are furious at snyder for it and it hasn't been leaked on twitter by any players

he wrote a song about trayvon martin for his band

it just goes on forever. i can't pick anything out in particular

e: he had a fan favorite player ejected and arrested for probably telling him to sell the team https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Oakley#Madison_Square_Garden_arrest

said this before KD and kyrie went to the nets:

Look, New York is the Mecca of basketball. We hear from people all the time, from players and representatives about who wants to come. We can’t respond because of the NBA rules, etc. But that doesn’t stop them from telling us, and they do. I can tell you, from what we’ve heard, I think we’re gonna have a very successful offseason when it comes to free agents.

there's like a dozen stories about various knicks media and legal outlets whining about the NY post/ny daily news

some combination of patrick peterson/kerry rhodes/daryl washington (big oof at that last one). warner was good and i was vaguely aware of the jake plummer years as a kid but that defensive core really got me paying attention to football

"was a first team all-pro at one time in their career" is a bad metric for this imo, and using devin mccourty as a specific example, kind of disingenuous to use all-pros by different publishers (SN, PFF, PFW)
