  1. Lindsey is a badass guitar player. I admire his skills and musical contributions a lot, one of the larger figures in the golden age of rock music. I personally probably wouldn't put him in my top 10, but it doesn't sound completely absurd.
  2. Lance is here as a prospect, but he's not ready. Too shellshocked to get back as a starter now. It would be further disaster. They would just be continuing the job of ruining him that San Fran started before they bailed. Next offseason you get more serious about what he's showing and whether he is a candidate to start. He's still a shot in the dark, very raw, and just starting over in a new offense...or whatever this is that Dallas has.
  3. People think that about the top drafted qbs every year. Only about 10 percent of them ever come close to expectations. If it were true there would be about 25 of those guys in the league instead of 3 or 4. Then you have guys drafted later that become stars or just really good productive qbs. Everybody wants that superstar badass qb. Not very many teams can have one, no matter what they do, no matter how much they spend, no matter how high they draft. The odds just aren't good. You have to build a badass team and then hope to have a qb functional enough to not fuck it up, or you can win the once a decade lotto and get Mahomes at number 10 and let him carry your team when nobody thought he was going to be that blockbuster guy.
  4. No, you just have shitty comprehension. I literally compared the two as washed up qbs that some other team would overpay for. Wilson has just already been unloaded and his former team doing better with a recycled average qb.
  5. Shitty teams make shitty qbs look shittier, and vice versa. If anyone really thinks Brock Purdy is that unbelievably awesome, just send his ass to Cleveland and see how it goes.
  6. Funny, I'm the one that actually made the comparison between Dak and Wilson. Wilson is just older.
  7. Dallas didn't get curbstomped because Dak sucks. They got curbstomped because their great defense was shat upon and made a laughing stock, and the OL sucked, there was no running game, and they relied on Dak to throw them out of the hole they dug together, which was never going to work.
  8. I never thought Dak was any more than he showed in the field the last few years. That's why it was necessary to invest in everything around him, interior line that they have neglected, a solid center to back up and take over in a year or two, guards that are young and worth a shit (Tyler Smith should be at tackle already and Tyron moved out or moved over), and an offensive scheme and game plan to get the most out of what you have. A bigger running back with some power and juke would be nice, too. Then you have to figure out how to get consistency out of the defense. Dak sucks hard when the team sucks, but he can be tolerable when his supporting cast is awesome, which we haven't seen in a long time. If Seattle can look decent with Geno Smith, better coaching and more balance and consistency, Dallas could go pretty deep even with Dak and his limitations. As far as contract, it's the NFL, and contracts are contracts. What looked monstrous a year ago looks like pretty average next year. And there's always another delusional team that will trade way too much for a washed up qb, like Russell Wilson.
  9. Didn't expect different, but hoped that this one time I was wrong. You could see it coming. Schedule is a bitch the next few weeks, too.
  10. I liked Parsons better when he was roaming the whole field, not as a full time pass rusher. He might have been able to slow down some of the misery with someone out there willing to make tackles upfield.
  11. Actually, firing the GM would be step 1, but that ain't gonna happen until the grim reaper makes it happen.
  12. First thing is fire the head coach/OC/play caller. McCarthy was always a system guy and got away with having Aaron Rodgers make him look good. He's a bloated, outdated fat fuck. His own "Texas Coast" offense has looked shitty from day 1, just recycled crap from yonder day. They talked about running the football, but they don't seem to have followed up on it except when shortening the game in blowouts. Defense got exposed big time, as did the O-line. Not so effective when the hapless opponent doesn't hand you a three TD lead early.
  13. Does taking a cheap flier on Trey Lance still seem like a bad idea to some of you peeps?
  14. He got his massive payday, he don't give a rat's ass. He's a douche.
  15. Looking like the bullpen we know so well, now.
  16. Bluetooth Machete is a great band name. Y'all holler when you have Surlyfest GuitarPron All Stars. Maybe I'll come and take pics.
  17. Had to pull over tonight to get a phone pic of this sky.
  18. Big in Japan seems like a good fit for him. They like kinky stuff out there.
  19. They don't get that strike call a couple of days ago.
  20. Players series Tele in black, $579. https://www.adorama.com/fe0145212506.html
  21. That rookie looks like he might be pretty good.
  22. For anybody here who's still crying about losing Randy Gregory, he's available again. I guess the Broncos awesome defense didn't have room for him any more.
