  1. I like how GymBroFisher has a reasonable take…so he must be an idiot or, even worse, a sip
  2. Is this a bit or are you really being a dick about Helm for no reason? Especially that second sentence. Go back and read the fucking thread before you subject us all to another three pages of histrionic bullshit.
  3. Coveralls with all this shit painted on it seems like something I would wear ironically but eventually it would become the go-to outfit for daydrinking. That actually raises an interesting question - how many otherwise normal people go to A&M because they couldn't get into Texas and rightly reject the idea of going to Tech, start adopting all the weird Aggie shit as a joke, then slowly turn into the very thing they've been mocking?
  4. I've gotten to the point where when Sark hires someone I've never heard of, I am excited to see how it goes. Maybe it doesn't work out, but it seems like these unknowns keep becoming the next big thing.
  5. But this time it's without the mullet weight
  6. Your point about team needs is good and reminds me that pretty much all of this is academic until we see how free agency goes. Guys could shoot up or drop based on whether teams can fill gaps before the draft.
  7. That's a great signal that you can ignore that mock as garbage. Honestly, the mock that is reliably "good" is Daniel Jeremiah's. PFF's big board is also a good indicator, although it doesn't take into account team needs / trades / etc.
  8. If he tests well at the pro day, I could see him rocket up the draft boards. Otherwise, I think it's hard to justify taking him in the second on his size alone. He's only got one year as a starter under his belt and he was very mistake-prone. But you're absolutely correct about it only taking one team. Maybe he gives a great interview or just blows a coach away with his physical presence. It's definitely happened before and I hope it does for him.
  9. I'm genuinely asking - do you mean move up into the second round? When people say "slip" I usually think of a move down, but I haven't seen anyone suggest that Cam would be in the first round. To the extent you're saying he could move up to the second - I'm not sure I see it. He didn't do anything at the combine other than get measured. Although he has the size teams definitely want, he will need to show some athleticism to go with it if he wants to move. Seems like he will be somewhere around the 8th to 12th OL taken, which would put him generally in the third round.
  10. An age-old rule of the internet, from Usenet, to AIM, to facebook, to anything you use today - ignore shit you don't like. Engagement feeds assholes, narcists, trolls, and crazy people. Ignoring them (beyond acknowledging their existence and moving on) starves them of engagement. Either they move on to easier sources of engagement or they'll change their behavior. It's a like child who thinks there's no real difference between punishment or praise because they're both kinds of attention and that's what the child really wants. Denying them the attention they crave is the only way to get them to change and seek positive engagement. The only alternative is banning someone from a forum, which I generally disagree with on principle except for egregious situation. You can't control other people's behavior, but you can control how you react to them. Put them on ignore until they learn to behave in acceptable manner.
  11. Zierlein is pretty awful at mocks. Dude is just throwing darts. It's all conjecture until FA anyway.
  12. I wish people on this board could learn to control their temper better.
