  1. They better spend the next year working on ball movement. Was very poor all tournament. Probably won't be a real threat until 2020; like the Sixers I suppose.
  2. My pick right now is Jacksonville. Just throwing it out there so you know who to mock later. I believe in Bortles and Gus Bradley. They might not quite be ready for prime time yet but week one at home I'll roll the dice.
  3. Damn it Matt Barkley you had one job.
  4. I'm undecided on biggest bust at running back. Comes down to Lawrence Phillips and Richardson I think. Their rushing numbers are pretty similar. Richardson was a much better receiver. The thing that makes Phillips a really awful pick, besides the horrible production, is he already an assault on record when taken. Didn't play most of his final college season as a result. Another argument for Phillips is the Rams traded Jerome Bettis since they drafted Phillips. Strongest argument for Richardson is that he was taken 3rd overall when running backs have lost value as top draft picks. Only 1 first round pick was in the top 10 in rushing yards last season. Marshawn Lynch. Also Jamaal Charles has the highest yards per attempt for a running back in league history. He was a 3rd round pick. Plus because he was traded 2 teams have spent a first round pick on him. Browns also gave up picks to move up 1 slot to take him. Bo Jackson first overall by Tampa Bay is still the worst pick though of a running back. Since he made it clear he wouldn't sign with them under any circumstances before the draft. Since they lied and killed his college baseball eligibility.
  5. Argentina and Canada are playing right now on ESPN 3 for anyone looking for something to watch to kill time. Some young players worth watching on the Canada squad.
  6. Trying to get over the retire Big Show chant. Probably had plants in the audience trying to start it as well.
  7. I liked it better when they didn't know Sting can talk now.
  8. Too bad they don't put as much effort into getting the new guys over as they did with Triple H tonight. Might have some people actually lined up to take over for Cena. Sting promo was unbelievable.
  9. I'd buy Hogan's apology if he also said what brought that racism out is jealousy and his sexual desires towards his daughter.
  10. I know the natural instinct of an Eagles fan is be cynical, and preseason of course, but this looks like a really good football team. Sam Bradford's arm is a thing of beauty. Also lol Tebow 0-2 on 2 point conversions so far.
  11. Ground turkey tacos are the best. Thought ground turkey had no value but it makes great taco meat. Slow and low cooked it just keeps absorbing flavor and gets more and more tender. I'm at the 4 hour mark and it is crazy good right now.
  12. He is not far off from what Draymond Green gives a team defensively. Pretty much the same size. Can guard 2s, 3s and 4s. Plus he is 4 years younger than Green. They should be developing his 3 point shot though. I think that is on the team. His form looks better overall but not a lot of improvement in his scoring/percentages. Non at all really.
  13. What's going on Can you correct my vision? Helping my decision What's going on If you know what I'm meanin' You won't find me kneeling Should I be standing on a chair? My hands are waving in the air You know as well as I do now I'm going to get to you somehow What's going on Everyone acts crazy Yes or no means maybe What's going on Can you correct my vision? Helping my decision
  14. I guess that Bruce Jenner and Sting photo comparision someone posted here last time Sting was around no longer works. Wouldn't be surprised at all if the theory of the extra long promo as a rib on Sting is true. Might have missed it had I not had by DVR set to go 15 minutes past thanks to when the Rock returned. Stale sure but on the brightside Bubba is fat again. So no need to worry about another main event push falling flat like the one in TNA.
  15. So John Stewart coming out as a Flair fan and cutting a Flair type promo could save that ending. Since at least the promo could be good. Saying he didn't want Cena to break the record. Would have been easier to point out the record isn't 16 though. At least the horrible Undertaker ending was the timekeeper ringing the bell. Not telekinesis by the Undertaker. Could get worse though I suppose. If it turns out Kane arranged it and the Ministry Authority debuts.

    MR. ROBOT

    Wasn't a surprising direction but it was the one I was hoping they weren't going to take. For a moment there I thought my guess was right when Tyrell tried accessing the rootkit. Knew it was wrong the moment they had Mr. Robot and Tyrell meet. It isn't completely inconceivable to me that someone would have that kind of break. There use to be a guy in my neighborhood growing up that had full blown hallucinations. He would live out scenes from Saved by the Bell and Beverly Hills 90210 at the basketball court. There is no way he could function in the real world at all though. The side effects of the medication is too strong when on it. Off it his breakdowns weren't internalized at all. Clearly he thought Screech was there. He ended up hospitalized a lot since he would basically do Forrest Gump occasionally in the Summer. He would just sprint and keep sprinting until he needed an ambulance. There was no stopping him. He shouldn't have been on his own.
  17. The crying would have been intense. Since people would have been expecting a 5 star match, justifiably. Justifiably expecting 5 stars that is not crying. Crying over something presented as a kids show warrants therapy.
  18. I might be too low on them. I will go over it again before the regular season. Right now I'm trying to get a grip on what I undervalue and overvalue. I think I overvalue the short term impact of developing youth on a team's win loss record. So I might go too high on some younger teams. Nets might be closer to a fringe playoff team than I have them at the moment. Seems like I give all young teams a boost based on potential except the Sixers. Sixers don't deserve it though. Last year we had a nice run when we were winning some games and making really impressive second half comebacks. Based entirely on defense. Lost 3 of our 4 best defenders from that point. Moving Noel away from the rim. Going to be a long season defensively. Hopefully we get enough offensive improvements to make the games at least palatable. I'm trying to get better at incorporating strength into judging a players defensive skills as well. When it comes to things like fighting through screens. I think I undervalue it. I'm not the only one either.
  19. Saric and Nowitzki going at it was a joy to watch. His handle, passing and rebounding remind me of an old Celtic great. Just so fundamentally sound. Hope his shot continues to develop.
  20. Nick Foles is similar to Brad Johnson. Quarterback he reminded me of most.
  21. Attempt 2 at seeding. East 1. Cleveland 2. Miami 3. Washington 4. Chicago 5. Milwaukee 6. Toronto 7. Atlanta 8. Charlotte 9. New York 10. Boston 11. Detroit 12. Indiana 13. Orlando 14. Brooklyn 15. Philly West 1. Golden State 2. Houston 3. Oklahoma City 4. LA Clippers 5. San Antonio 6. Memphis 7. Utah 8. New Orleans 9. Sacramento 10. Phoenix 11. Minnesota 12. Denver 13. LA Lakers 14. Dallas 15. Portland Sept 24
  22. Upgraded and just working on getting accustomed to how much faster everything is now. Might need to slow down the double click speed in mouse settings. Nice to have good problems for once.
