  1. Roman Wilson dropped the first pass thrown to him last season. He finished the year with one (1) dropped pass. He's also an extremely willing and effective blocker. I don't know if he has out of nowhere superstar potential, but he seems like the kind of guys coaches love and trust.
  2. Fun little run on Michigan players there a bit ago
  3. A couple of Michigan Men. I'm really curious about Mikey's NFL career. He's undersized and not a particularly great athlete (by NFL standards. He's more athletic than damn near everyone damn near any of us have ever known) but he was such a fantastic player at being in the right place at the right time (except the Rose Bowl) and I hope he lives up to going this high.
  4. 10 wide receivers and we aren't even quite up to pick 40. For a position that is historically one of the hardest to predict success.
  5. Looking this was a bad year to be a defensive player with a high grade.
  6. I think that's legitimate concerns about his ability to operate on schedule in the pocket, but, in draft terminology, the upside is tremendous. At least you didn't draft a QB who is going to turn 24 in a week and a half and you seem to be planning to have sit his first two years.
  7. J.J. to Minnesota was always the best possible team-QB combination in this draft. His skill set is a near perfect fit for the Shanahan offense, and they have the weapons to jump start his career.
  8. FWIW, before the title game I said something to the effect of "both of them are deserving, but I would vote for Young"
  9. A&C were also the most popular entertainers in the English speaking world during WWII, though the monster movies are the ones that kinda revived both their career and the monster franchise when both seemingly had ran their course.
  10. On one hand, I never thought he should've gotten that Heisman (also, though Bush was incredible, Young was not only better that year, but also, imo, more exciting.) But taking it away because somebody bought his mom a house or whatever was such incredibly stupid bullshit.
  11. And the NBA last two minute report basically said "yup the Sixers got completely fucked. Oh well, time for game 3."
  12. Oh I don't give a fuck about the Heat. I just hate the Celtics.
  13. It's obvious Harbaugh loves JJ, but he turned down the Denver Broncos flat multiple times over a year ago and then spent a year winning a national title and keeping half an eye on the Chargers both specifically because he wanted to coach Herbert and prove he was the guy that could fully unlock his potential. I'm more curious to see if he makes a stab on day two at Corum or Roman Wilson.
  14. I know I'm partisan, but I honestly don't have a clue of anything Drake Maye actually does better than McCarthy except "be tall."
  15. God I want Miami to ruin Boston's season so fucking badly. I hate the fucking Celtics so much and it would be hilarious.
  16. I am so unbelievably tired of the sports gambling ads. And incorporating lines and similar into the broadcasts.
  17. Shit A Matter of Life and Death is leaving the CC? I might need to rewatch it before that.
  18. And we're right back to "the human body just isn't meant to be that big and that explosive at the same time."
  19. As well as betting on multiple games through a proxy, including thrice betting against his own team (good news is he didn't play in those games.) It turns out the upside to legal sports betting is that people get to see "that's weird, that's the second time in three months that there were huge payouts on prop bet unders for some nobody on the Raptors. Huh, he left both those games early because of health reasons. That's weird."
  20. Apparently bet on multiple NBA games along with the parlay fuckery. He didn't play in any of the games he bet on, but he did bet on the Raptors to lose three different times.
  21. And now they have a game Friday as their last chance to get in... Terrible double whammy
  22. Pistons are looking for a new President of Basketball Operations to sit above Weaver though.
  23. This is what, the third DC stab at an Ultimate line? After All-Star and Earth One (fourth if you count the Nu52) The problem Marvel ran into was the whole "classic stories and characters without the weight of continuity" wears off after a few years when continuity starts to build up. (Though I personally was a pretty big fan of the late era Ultimate Universe 1.0 when it instead became the place that the writers could do anything. Kill Peter Parker and Wolverine for real, split the United States into chunks, etc etc. It didn't sell worth a damn.) Depending on creative teams/characters I'll at least give these a look though.
