  1. Why is everybody talking about the Eagles all of a sudden? *checks scoreboard* Jags up 2 TDs early? What in the actual fuck
  2. Atlanta's coverage against the deep ball has been really good so far.
  3. Let me just say congrats to the ACC to not screwing it up for the first weekend in what seems like forever. Apart from Florida State and to a lesser extent VA Tech or Clemson, the league still isn't very good but how many years in a row did the ACC lose to the likes of Old Dominion, Troy, and San Diego St. Bravo ACC, bravo. I know it's early but one game in conference that I am looking forward to is Louisville @ Clemson on Oct. 11th. I am really interested to see how good Louisville actually is. They've looked pretty good so far but it's pretty hard to gauge them against their competition so far.
  4. It went Peyton, AP, Rodgers in order
  5. ESPN Custom League, picked 4th, snake draft QB Cam Newton QB Tom Brady RB LeSean McCoy RB Gio Bernard WR Brandon Cooks WR/TE Antonio Gates TE Zach Ertz Flex Reggie Bush D Rams K Graham Gano Bench RB Frank Gore QB Andy Dalton WR Kelvin Benjamin WR Mike Evans How did I do?
  6. I gotta say I'm all in on Leicester this year. They are a fantastic team to watch and give no fucks when they are playing teams with higher quality players. Hope they can keep this up all year.
  7. I think the category where the separation between one and two is the closest is in baseball. Mike Trout and Giancarlo Stanton are really close stat wise. Trout is better at getting extra bases and Stanton is hitting with better power and a slightly higher average. Even their wins over replacement is very tight with Stanton at 6.05 and Trout at 6.00. The reason I would give the nod to Trout is that I feel like you have to be a better athlete to play CF than RF. I really wish Andrew McCutchen had not gotten hurt this year as I would have loved to compare them equally. Trout is beating McCutchen right now in most stats that aren't average but Andrew is such a great fielder. I really think the only real stat that Trout could significantly improve on is his strikeouts. Still they are all amazing athletes and I'm glad that we will have many more years of watching them play!
  8. TL;DR version: Eat, Sleep, Shut up, Repeat
  9. Jason Puncheon commits a stupid slide tackle and gets sent off on his second yellow and Arsenal scores less than two minutes later. Crystal Palace worked hard enough to get the point here but they couldn't keep the composure for the full 90 and end up getting nothing today. Such a shame.
  10. That Everton/Leicester match was fantastic to watch. You could say that Leicester stole a point there but they played really well all game long and really earned their tie. Will be watching them again soon. Everton though really should play better in the second half. They had almost no build up like they did in the first half and it cost them.
  11. Ki Sung-Yong with the first Premier League goal of the season for Swansea in the 28'.
  12. I think so Stennick. Usually they are up pretty early so it gives the slackers time to get in.
  13. This kid wins the internet again! Joel-Hans Embiid @JoelEmbiid ยท 18h Hey I want you to come slide in my DMs @KimKardashian Joel-Hans Embiid @JoelEmbiid Follow Oh I didn't know you were married sorry @KimKardashian just saw it from the fan's tweet... have a nice day Joel-Hans Embiid @JoelEmbiid Follow I must go on another break peace
  14. I'm very glad to see Lance signed with the Hornets as I said earlier when I compared him and Gordon Hayward. If I had a texas hold'em hand of crazy shooting guards I might go all in with Lance and PJ though. This season should be fun.
  15. I really enjoy Zach Lowe's work on Grantland. The dude cranks out so many articles but they are all extremely informative. Any other writers similar to his quality right now?
  16. I understand how things can get out of hand in a pickup game. If you're PJ though you have to have better sense than to get into it with anyone right now. If he wanted to play ball why didn't he go play at NC Central which isn't all that far away? Judgment obviously has not been his strongpoint in the past two or three years but now you're allowing dude to get into your pockets. But it is what it is and I could let this slide but... http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/24610021/report-josh-gordon-driving-pj-hairstons-car-at-time-of-dwi He has to get away from Haydn "Fats" Thomas. Fats brought PJ down in college and if he allows him to stay around he'll do it again in the pros. I really want to see both of these young men get it together and make something of themselves. They have talent that I could only dream of and they are pissing it away in the name of keeping it real? GTFO here with that and get that money. Not that sad about McBob leaving. He got more than the Hornets should have paid him so I think everybody won here as there will be more touches for Zeller and Vonleh next year. It won't be that hard to replace his passing skills which was really the only thing he did very well. In other news don't be surprised if you hear Lance Stevenson's name to be brought up more in conjunction with the Hornets. We have the cap room to sign him even if it goes to 10-12 a year and it would fill a gigantic area of need while PJ gets his shit together. Also we've had Gordon Hayward have a visit but I just don't see it happening here as he'd require a 14.8 million (max money) to get him away from the Jazz and I would prefer if I had the chance to have Lance. Lance has a higher true shooting percentage, has a sightly higher efficiency, and a slightly lower PER that could be explained by playing on a team that values defense more than offense.
  17. It sucks that we lost...like really sucks, but I'm excited to see what Jurgen can do with four years to develop players to be more than just bigger and stronger than other teams.
  18. Come on karma you owe us one for Portugal
  19. Where in the hell was this team...I don't know the entire game?
  20. Holy shit that was the perfect play...we should be tied right now
  21. Holy shit what a goal!
  22. My goodness I hope Jermaine Jones is ok
  23. If Jozy can walk get him out there
  24. Ok my heart has said screw this I'm out. And this is just the quarterfinals...I can't imagine what this would be like if we were actually a threat to win the whole thing.
  25. I've given the US a lot of crap about defending but that was a great takeaway by Gonzalez!
