  1. +1 (or 1up?) on this. My 4 and 6 boys both loved it. The story wasn’t stupid or a remake. Each character had some depth and their own motivations. Lots of Easter eggs and NES and MarioKart throwbacks. Bowser was probably the best character, but all the Kongs were funny as well.
  2. The Rockets will beat the Wizards to secure the #7 pick.
  3. They could’ve done what they did for Bo Katan and casted the voice actress, who campaigned for the role but was never given an audition due to insufficient screen acting experience. She’d have the voice sound and inflection correct and would possibly look more like animated Ahsoka with a younger looking and less grizzled face.
  4. I think Lamar and his mother have miscalculated his present and future worth if they think he’s going to be paid over $50m/year beyond 2026 or so (whenever front offices anticipate he starts to lose a step or the injuries and age have impacted his game). If he plays in 2023 for $32m and balls out without bailing on his team late in the season, he’s likely to to get a better deal for 2024 and beyond than if he keeps up what he has been doing and sits out a year (while also missing out on that $32m).
  5. My bad I may have heard incorrectly that the regular franchise was in the $40’s. Seemed like the top 5 salary average should be considering what Rodgers, Watson, Wilson, and Mahomes are getting paid. Regardless, the point was that Leveon Bell never made up the money he lost by sitting a year, and the rust hurt him more than “saving tread on the tires”.
  6. We only get 8 episodes every 2 years. Wasting any of them on filler or poorly acted celebrity guest roles is rage worthy.
  7. It’s starting to feel like they planned all along for “The Mandalorian” to refer to Bo Katan, until we get to a final season and realize it referred to Grogu all along. Beskar was in the prisoner ship, so Moff Gideon probably has some sect of loyalists from the time he held the dark saber. Hell, someone (Thrawn or that “rehabilitated” boy haircut lady) might have paid the Nite Owls to liberate him. It could’ve been Gideon or Thrawn that ordered the tie fighter attack on Bo Katan’s family vacation home, but I don’t get the motive at this point. Both of those dudes are hyper-strategic.
  8. Didn’t DKR also say “if he’ll bite you as a dog, he’ll bite you as a pup”?
  9. Le’veon made $4m his first 4 years, $12 million in 2017; then rejected both a two year offer for $30m and the franchise tag (one year at $16m). He ended up collecting only $28m from 2019-2021 from the Jets, Chiefs, Ravens, and Bucs. Playing 2018 for $16m probably wouldn’t have decreased the $28m he earned later. Truly dumb decision.
  10. When Leveon Bell refused to sign the Pittsburgh franchise tag and sat out a year, the question was not resolved that if the Steelers kept the tag on him again and Bell signed, would he get paid based on a Year 1 of tag (since he never signed or played under the first tag) or would it jump to the much higher $$$ Year 2 tag value. If Lamar sits this year, he rejects the ~$45M. If the Ravens tag him again in 2024, if it is ruled as the first tag he played under, he’ll get the average of the top 5 QBs (probably in the $45-50m range). If it is ruled to be his second year, he gets a 20% bump so ~$60M. Ravens would probably pay it either way but it’s a $15m issue for Lamar and for the Ravens’ cap space. Completely fucks up their plans to compete in 2023 so this is stupid. The Ravens would cut to the chase and offer him thr $105 for two years today. They already offered him $133m fully guaranteed for 3, in addition to the longer deal that came out to like $175m guaranteed. Lamar’s mom is an idiot.
  11. From who are they “taking back” Mandalore? The mutant creatures or the eyeball robots that live underground?
  12. The post I replied to said Quinn was a better QB or better to watch than all QBs from 2010-2021. If I was building a Longhorn team, Ewers should be the top pick talentwise among those we’ve had since Colt left. I was stating their stats and performance relative to Quinn. If you are Quinn’s white knight, ok. But you can’t say his experience before his first start (in addition to being 5++++ star rated) was equivalent to Ash or Sam coming in as true freshmen. Is the new argument that RS-FR Quinn played slightly better than true freshmen Sam and Ash? Ok congratulations. Let’s anoint him the 2024 #1 pick.
  13. Slow your roll on David Ash and Sam Ehlinger if your point is to fluff Ewers. As a true sophomore, Ash completed 67.3%, 2699 yards, 8.5y/a, 19 TD, 8 INT. Before he got hurt as a true junior, he went 60.9% completion, 8.7 y/a, 7 TD, 2 INT. As a true sophomore, Sam completed 64.7%, 3292 yards, 7.7 y/a, 25 TD, 5 INT. As a true junior, he went 65.2%, 3663 yards, 8.1 y/a, 32 TD, 10 INT. Quinn as RS-freshman was 58.1%, 2177 yards, 7.4 y/a, 15 TD, 6 INT. Quinn has the talent go 1-1 in the NFL draft. But if he doesn’t make a big jump in production he won’t go that high, or may not even be a first rounder. He needs a big jump just to match Ash and Sam when they were the same age.
  14. If your strategy is “Wemby or nothing”, then you are correct that anyone in the bottom 3 has the same odds. But the third worst team also has a 14.8% of picking 5th, 26% chance of picking 6th, and 7% of picking 7th. If you finish worst, the worst pick you can get is #5.
  15. Silas is trying to pull a Lovie Smith here.
  16. For a while the “experts” have said if this group of WRs (JSN, Addison, Johnston, the 2 Tenn guys) would be second round picks in most drafts. The more educated mocks seems to go that way and have most of them dropping to the end of the first. One or more of the top 5 will likely be there at pick #33. DL and CB are the first round value this year. I don’t know if they’d take another corner after getting Stingley, but very good ones will be on the board at #12. OT2, possibly OT1 could be there, and all these fringe top 10 edge guys.
  17. Who are the slow learners, the people who want the worst record or the people who say being in the bottom 3 is all that matters? I’ve always understood the odds. The 5th pick is better than the 7th pick if things go shitty with ping pong balls.
  18. Roger Goodell is such a cunt bitch. The majority of owners could force the move if Goodell wanted to move on it. Nobody in America outside of Adams’s daughter, Adams’s corpse, and the raccoon/toupee would disagree the world is better with the Houston Oilers in it.
  19. The Raiders took Jalen Carter off their board. Something about previous first round picks having issues with drinking and street racing.
  20. At least now Omega has a big sister and her stepmom to talk to when she gets her period instead of having Tech and Wrecker awkwardly explain her changing body, which was how this season was trending. Good point about major plot line to both Mando and Bad Batch is related to cloning, and Filoni having to divert his creativity to plug holes for the shit sequels.
  21. Grogu is more underutilized in a battle than DJ Monroe in a Greg Davis offense. He’s a gadget player that can make big plays!
