There are fewer top line cornerbacks in the league than quarterbacks. If you have one, you pay them, even if they have a down year. Sauce Gardner is a two-time All-Pro and will be 25 when the season starts and is one of the few corners who can match up physically with large receivers. This signing is a no brainer. At his worst he's a top-10 player at the position but he's a top-3 talent.

I feel like Q.T. Marshall's group was a great collection of dorks when he was around. We need more lower card stables. It would do a lot to get some shine on new/young guys who probably shouldn't be beating established midcarders, but want the wins to matter more than they would against anonymous job guys.

This is a great topic, what are other examples of a great wrestling program that is carried almost 100% by one side. My #1 draft pick is Savage w/Sherri vs. The Ultimate Warrior going into Wrestlemania 7. The Ultimate Warrior could have been replaced by a cardboard cut out and we would have got the same exact program. Savage and Sherri are masterful and The Ultimate Warrior gives them almost nothing. One of my favorite uncomfortable wrestling moments is Sherri essentially propositioning Warrior, and Warrior just kind of standing there breathing heavy. Maybe it was because I was 9-years-old at the time, but I feel like that's exactly how I would have reacted if that happened to me.

I read about Cole's last concussion recovery and I'm surprised he came back at all. It's really hard to be a professional wrester if you can't be in a moving car for more than 15 minutes at a time. Post-concussion syndrome is a real thing and it can be devastating. Absolutely no good can come from getting hit in the head. Every single hit to the head adds up to a point of no return. It fucking sucks, but I fear he's past that point. He seems like a legitimately good guy who worked his way to a upper-midcard player for over a decade. He's had a great career, and is the type of guy who I'd imagine would be a welcome addition to the backstage staff in either AEW or WWE. If it's over, he should retire with no regrets. He overachieved in every single way.

The Cleveland Browns are over .500 all-time. Being great for a long time before any of us were born gives a great head start.

If you are the type of person who can look at Ghosts of Tsushima and say, "I don't want more games that look like this," please go ahead and block me. We will never be friends, acquaintances, or associates. We're better off as strangers. It's easily my all-time favorite game when it comes to not just graphics, but presentation. I'd be pissed if it didn't look and feel a lot like Ghosts of Tsushima.

I have to say, BYU is amazingly successful for a school who will suspend 18-22-year-olds for having sex. That's like suspending kindergarteners for finger painting.

Except, he got the job in a secret vote put forth by one player in a super secret vetting process that probably didn't exist. That player was then given a job high in the union that has never existed before it was bestowed upon him. It's a union filled with too many players, most of whom can't give up the time and money it will take to actually fight against any of this shit. It's amazing that something like this hasn't happened before, it's a union that is extremely necessary, but the people inside of the union are split between people who can't afford to fight and people who make enough money that they don't have any reason to fight. I don't remember what radio show it was, but I remember someone calling Gene Upshaw a pawn when he stepped down. The guest he was talking to said something to the effect of, if you knew all of the fires he put out over the years, you wouldn't say that. I'm interested in the DeMaurice Smith book that is coming out, because I have a feeling that he has all the stories.

That Pablo Torre story is going to be important. This is crazy.

Umm...I always thought the difference between a camel toe and a moose knuckle was the Canadian border. Seriously, I used to date a woman from Canada, and I was legitimately confused when she said some woman at a restaurant had a moose knuckle. I asked what she meant, and she said, "you know when a woman's pants are so tight, you can see a print." I couldn't have been more delighted when I learned that a Canadian camel toe was called a moose knuckle. Then while we were talking about random Canadian shit, I had to ask, "what do you call Canadian bacon?" In an answer that couldn't have been less delightful, she said, "ham, we call it ham."

Is anyone here a true sicko? I found this handy dandy spreadsheet to keep track of your Dynasty. It works really well if you download it as an Excel file. The only real issue I found is that the logo VLOOKUP doesn't work(you'll have to make sure the pictures are in the cell, not placed over the cell). That's a pretty easy fix for a document that will keep track of your entire College Football Career through 2054. I haven't played enough to know how this years record keeping compares to last years game, but I found last years game lacking. This is the exact type of thing that I wish the game had, but I'm enough of a crazy person to keep up with all of this shit myself. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GB3uXjuPBqnslh2968WLOhVvm2f9ENyBGjZQ9UCEB08/edit?usp=sharing

The Dame thing makes sense for everyone involved. His family kinda fell apart based on the trade. His wife filed for divorce and asked for sole custody of the kids because he couldn't be a parent from Milwaukee. If he didn't get injured he probably would have asked for a trade. The Bucks need flexibility more than an injured Dame Lillard. They don't have any picks, so they might as well get him off of their books so they have money to sign free agents. Dame gets to go home and be a dad, the Bucks get to try to build around Giannis. No one loses in this situation.

As someone who loved The Cat's drunk country karate uncle gimmick (we really haven't explored the diversity of goofy black uncles in wrestling), I'd be all the way into him and Duggan having a feud. Hear me out. Do a series of vignettes where The Cat and Duggan are neighbors who are both having cookouts at the same time, they begin to argue about who makes the best barbecue, and after a day of drinking they start brawling. The entire angle is about two men who have too much pride to admit the other man's barbecue is just as tasty as their own. The blowoff wouldn't even be a match, it would be a barbecue cookoff at Great American Bash where the judges taste both men's barbecue and give both perfect 10s. They then look at each other, and realize they're both right, they toast a beer, and hug it out. I might shed a tear after that.

If people are interested, I think we should probably set up some ground rules. I'm looking for feedback, so if you have an idea on any of the below, go ahead and let me know. I think we should set a start date for August 1st. I don't quite know how to set up the dynasty yet, but I'm pretty sure I'll have all the info I need by the first of the month. There should probably be a schedule. I'm thinking each in-game week will take a real-time week, but I'm willing to shorten this time depending on how many people sign up and their schedules. It will allow everyone enough time to play their game and do their recruiting. I don't see any reason why we would need to extend this time, but I could be overlooking something. Let me know if you have any questions. What difficulty should we use? I don't think we should do Heisman, but we damn sure shouldn't do Freshman either. So, I'll probably take a vote for Varsity/All-American. I feel like the difficulty should make the season reflect our skills as players, but not to the point that it isn't fun for our less talented players. Should there be a star cap? For instance, we can only pick programs three stars and below? I don't like the idea of having everybody going after the Ohio State/Alabama/Georgia level teams and hoarding all the recruits from everyone else. I'd also be all for everyone picking a one star team, and allowing everyone to take better jobs until they get hired by the college football elites. Should be do a lottery and draft? Should there be a limit on how many teams per conference? One person being in a conference with one user and another being in a conference with 8 users would destroy competitive balance, awards, etc. I'm open to making custom conferences to enforce the limit. I don't think we should limit custom playbooks, I personally think half the fun of the game is changing my playbook to fit my team. We can vote on this. We will have to figure out how to schedule user-vs-user games, especially once the playoff/bowl games start. If you agree to a time, you'll be held to it. Once a user-vs-user game starts it is official. We can't have people getting "disconnected" after an injury or during a blow out. Does anyone have any opinion about spamming plays? I don't know if there is a way to limit this in the options, but I'm all for limiting exploits. There are 32 slots, if you have any friends outside the board who want to play, I'd like to fill up the entire dynasty if possible.

Wait, what?!?!? I don't think any of the things you said here. I'm not saying it's smart to be irresponsible with your money, I just can see how someone who takes an 87% pay cut can fuck around and find themselves with financial issues. I feel like we act like moving cross country is cheap and easy. If you live in expensive ass Los Angeles and have Los Angeles bills, a $15 million dollar salary is probably great, but if you move to Milwaukee and have to pay both L.A. and Milwaukee bills on a $2 million dollar salary, you might struggle. I just saw that he's currently in the second divorce preceding with the same woman. The first divorce he was filed after Beasley started dating Larsa Pippen during his marriage, but they reconciled. You know what, forget everything I said, he's probably dumb as hell. Because of how the salary cap works and how you can't trade expensive assets for cheap assets. So, if you want Kevin Durant, you can't trade a mid-level exception for him. You have to put together a package of players who make a relatively similar salary. Most of the time, you will have to mix and match a bunch of pieces to not gut your entire team for one player.
