  1. Respect your take, my friend, but disagree...
  2. Yeah.... game never grabbed my attention... A bit like this MNFer... gonna look in on the Manning simulcast.
  3. And I often put the em-PHA-sis on the wrong syl-lab-BLE. Sue me... Just starting my Italian lessons... hoping to go to Sicily this summer. Would be my first time there... freakin love Italy an hear Sicily is even more laid back... at least so long as one minds his own business. Bout time I learned the language...
  4. Yup.... special subset... "Off-Targets"
  5. Never liked them but for me it was the NBC TV deal that damned them... Did love that they sucked their way thru that entire contract....
  6. It's business, gum... not personal. Take the canolli...
  7. Was the dude's income under $80k? If yes, no cap gain tax... surprised me as well. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/100515/5-ways-reduce-your-taxes-after-windfall-gain.asp I guess you did hear about the deficit-busting, 2020 tax cut for the middle class? Wait.... that was the Corporate giveaway and the elimination of the estate tax. So the dude could have held onto the ball for life... no tax. Of course hold an asset 12 months and now you are in a long-term hold staus and the tax bite is a mere 15%. LMAO....
  8. Sorry Spain, but great trade there for us.... hell... I'd throw in Ward just to seal it. At 6'1, 198 Howard has a shot at playing a full season. Hunt? Once great.... and gave it his all to date this season... and got hurt in the process. Dude was a baller, but now he is in his 6th year of a job where the average life is... 2.6 years. Doesn't help that he runs like a much bigger man to boot. Admirable? Sure, but... career shortening. Can't get sentimental... Sancho... , but say hello to Dulcinea for me. I did not know the league average was so low across all positions....
  9. First off one has to decide if you are a "seller" or a "buyer". With no SB in sight that I can see, I am a seller... not a "tear it all down" seller, but a seller. Combine that with my evolving RPO/ZBS "theory(?)" and I get... DT/ 2022 Draft/LB Conklin still has decent value, but not living up to contract. Possibly Ward... Nope... I'm selling... not renting soon to be UFAs.
  10. On paper... Issue I continue to see is the cap impossibility of keeping a loaded roster together. Have I mentioned that here recently? Still love Baker's fire, his leadership, but his escapability is a concern. Give me a Jackson, Mahomes or even a Murray tad small, but elusive as hell for a SB run when they can survive a season. Should have seen this trend coming given the successes of Dak and Wilson. Imma bet DePo did.... but football-Guy Dorsey? Nope. Plenty of course-changing QBs in this upcoming draft. No instant turnaround types, but I see solid building-block developers. The Big Bens and Wentzes of the world are the true dinosaurs... that's why MG goes after 'em. Only the pocket guys with the fastest minds and quickest releases need apply for the old way. I only know of one of those... Rodgers. And even he seems resolved to cap-limit induced, time passing him by now.
  11. Well... when Rudd did it the game was not over.... so there's that. And as you said above "game-wining" which carries alon with it "game over". Don't you hate it, Bob, when facts get in the way? Pretty common 'round here albeit in another section... the section 8 section to be precise.
  12. Gotta love folk with so low of a regard for OPM.... … Money, well, get back I'm all right Jack, keep your hands off of my stack Money, it's a hit Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
  13. My head is whispering Don Newcomb.... I'll check.123 starts in the top 3 does not leave much. 154 game seasons back then IIRC. Podres got 22, but at lrast his name appears.... so points to you No Newcomb... but Osteen, not an unfamiliar name, with 287 IP .in 40 starts looks to have been the #4. have e
  14. Never underestimate the power of anticipation in a QB. Case developed it after his very structured U OF H years (5 of them setting a ton of records in the process) playing behind Matt Schaub in HOU under Gary Kubiak... another such QB and former Ag. When you have an average arm, it is what you have to do. He's a great #2. Will win you the odd game here as he just did stepping in, but not gonna take you to the end of the rainbow... just a step closer. Kinda a cheaper Kurt Cousins
  15. And again there goes the spirit of the thread courtesy of the most self-centrred ass collection on this board...
  16. Coffee Fetcher? Is that code for "football guy?" Same guy who brought OBJ to us?
  17. Well... had they won today (TN blew them out), to go 20-0 it could have been with next Man up at QB... https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/patrick-mahomes-injury-chiefs-titans/1024e9zvwup241nod33h6223xc Knee to head apparently... shades of our playoff game with them.
  18. Well reasoned as usual, Unsym... All too aware of organizational reality distortions that form in pursuit of the Almighty $$$ and lead to organiational behaviors ranging from merely poor to criminal.
  19. Sadly true or very close to it (I might allow for one iota).. but they are very concerned about their liabilty after the fact. That said.... the continued debate is really not in the spirit of the thread, so I'm out. My sympathies to any and all feeling a loss here.
