Good thing he's playing BYU this week, they're all Mike Taafes

I think that would have come across like he was whining about it, but I agree he should have been more forceful about it. "You've got a commissioner not wanting to give us the championship this year so we are going to take it."

Flaming hot take. He literally changed the whole trajectory of the aggies. They said the football foundation raised an extra 200 or 300 million than ever before after his freshman season. He was a great college qb who didn't have the tangible needs to make it in the NFL and more importantly the work ethic, but to say he wasn't a great college qb is a wild take. He's like Tim Tebow, but completely different brains.

Fair point, but their realism doesn't kick in until conference play and ours comes 1st or 2nd series of game one. If you aren't drinking the burnt orange kool-aid from Febuary-Fall Camp how can you even enjoy Texas Football.

It's better to have expected greatness and lost it than to have never expected it at all.

Exactly. Bulls are faster than humans and Matadors have been making them look pretty dumb for a long time. There isn't a great option but that's got to be better than your chances with a bear or a lion

I'm sure you've seen it, but About Time is a fantastic time travel romcom / father-son relationship movie. And for those of you macho men that would be turned off by the sound of that just do yourself a favor and watch this movie.

Cluthpoints says it would take 4th, 20th, Jabari, KPJ, Jae'Sean, and 2 future 1sts to land him. Hard pass

I've read reports that Harden has really changed his ways and attitude and only wants to come back to Houston because he thinks they're championship ready

Just catching up on the all the Paris threads. My wife and I are heading to Paris at the end of May for the first time in 15 years and mainly curious on restaurants and which areas to explore in our open times. @PenelopeWitherspoon seems to be the resident professional, but curious for any and all to pitch in. I have a tendency to cram pack a schedule which I'm trying to make sure I don't do here, but here's a rough layout of what I have so far. We've got 4 days in Paris and 3 days in Nice and are staying in the Latin Quarter so most dinners / breakfasts will be around there. Day 1 - Arrive to hotel around 930AM, check out Notre Dame / Saint Chappelle area then either head to Sacre Coure or Champs area depending on how we are feeling after travel day Day 2 Versailles in the morning open in the afternoon Day 3 10AM Eiffel Tower Summit, Sienne River Cruise open in the afternoon Day 4 Open in the morning 11PM Moulin Rouge show (I've heard Pink Mamma is a good trendy restaurant close to this) Day 5 train to Nice relax in afternoon Day 6 Explore Monte Carlo Day 7 Explore Cannes Day 8 Fly back home Thank you for taking a look!

I don't think it affects draft picks in the 3rd+ rounds, but it's definitely does in the 1st and maybe some in the 2nd. RBs are the least expensive in the league along with safeties and LBs I think. With the latest WR deals those are up there now as well. QB, Edge, WR, CB, LT would be my guess.

It's more about salary cap than anything else. The 12th pick in the draft will make around 5M per year for the next 4 years. Maybe in 2 years Bijan is Joe Mixon good who makes 10M a year. Or say we pick Van Ness or JSN who could be Christian Kirk or Arik Amstead good in 2 years who make 18M a year. With the salary savings of going WR or Edge at 12 you could get a Ryan Jensen quality OLineman. Biggest problem with the number 2 pick being a non QB is we are going to be stuck in mediocre purgatory with no chance of getting a decent QB on a value contract
