  1. Rizzo found his bat. 2-4 with a HR in the 7th
  2. Bot 2nd and Quintana at 35 pitches...
  3. Nice throw by Schwarber to get Carpenter out at home
  4. I married a Czech and can only say that her issues with poles didn't start until after the marriage.
  5. This is true, and frankly I don't understand how world class athletes smoke on a regular basis and maintain the lung health and capacity required for their jobs. Can you imagine these guys puffing away on Camels? I mean, many of the same carcinogens, irritants, and other lung-damaging toxins that tobacco has are in marijuana too. Including tar. I never enjoyed it, so I don't get it in the first place, but that part of it always seemed odd to me.
  6. Lol. Depending on the franchise... But yeah, it's not impossible to walk on to an NFL squad. Incredibly rare, but not impossible. The only thing they care about is what you can do for them, and if you can do something for them not much else matters. Armanti will probably have a shot somewhere. But if a guy only shines when it's on his terms, employers can be reluctant to hire him.
  7. Well he'll get a shot in Minnesota. I don't know crap about these things but people say that UDFA contracts can be better than late round picks.
  8. It can be possible for both to be stupid. But only one suffers for it.
  9. Quintana dominated today. Seven scoreless in a 3-0 win. Maybe we just need to play the Brewers forever
  10. Darvish played well today. DVR'd the game. We need more of that from him. Hope he keeps it up.
  11. Look man there's rules, you know? You never get married: - On a Saturday in the fall in the south - On opening weekend of hunting season (duck and deer certainly) - On Mardi Gras weekend And if you're invited on one of those dates then you're only obligated to go: - If it's immediate family (and there will be a reckoning) - Dad/Mom say you need to And if your wife is turning the screws to get you to go: - See what you can get in trade, or - Misbehave to the point she thinks twice next time
  12. Uh. As a weakside backer he'll be doing plenty of that. With his speed it would be surprising if he isn't a pass rusher. His major weakness is pass coverage, and a lot of scouts identified his lack of a killer instinct (alpha qualities I read) and his tendency to get blocked.
  13. I wonder if part of it is skipping the bowl game. Would've given him an extra game against good competition. Most of the top guys played their bowls, even the ones without anything to play for but pride. Someone said that players play.
  14. This isn't the place for it, but I still chuckle (bitterly) about the Florida 5 4 3 2 1.
  15. Dickson was the only one that didn't leave any question about his ability. Hopefully TH and staff can use this in the future when guys are being told to leave early and get the money. They'll have a counterpoint to say, oh really you think you're a lock?
  16. It was Pete Prisco on the underrated/overrated bit. Maybe it's still our rep. Malcom Brown went to the SB last year. Jordan Hicks got a ring. Diggs and Vaccaro aren't slouches. But maybe. Whatever it is about Connor the scouts saw something that cost him a lot of spots. Lots of lineman drafted before he was. Malik went about where expected.
  17. If I never watched a game and only looked at stats, I would agree.
  18. Well, I never watch the Bangles but I hope he does well there. Can't help but think another year would've benefited him.
  19. Guice picked up by the Redskins
  20. Orlando Brown dropped more than I thought too
  21. A guy on CBS said the word about him is he's soft. First I've heard someone say that.
  22. Well at least he stays home
  23. What do you deem credible and who are the idiots you are referring to? Todd McShay said he was the 2nd best OT in the draft. Mike Mayock called him the 3rd best OT and a first round talent. Nearly every national paper called CW55 a first round pick. Bleacher Report mock draft had him going #4. 247 Sports had him going in the 1st with one article suggesting he could go #1. NFL analyst Lance Zierlein said he was a possible 1st rounder, but didn't like his regression his Junior year even pre-injury. That's just a quick run through. Most said he was first round. A few said maybe not. A senior year would have likely guaranteed a 1st round spot and 1st round money.
