  1. I agree that he's a project. I wouldn't mind taking him with a low pick, but he's not worthy of a high round investment.

     

    Dre, you make an outstanding point. His flirtation with baseball has absolutely Hensoned his potential as a high NFL draft pick. I think if he laid off baseball, and concentrated on football, he would have had a far better season at Washington.

  2. He may physically look good, but he's nowhere near game shape. He will need at least two years to get to that point, just like Vick did with the Eagles. Any team that picks him up is really picking him up for the following season. He'd spend this season getting into mental and physical shape to play professional football again and staying out of trouble.

     

    I'd think the Ravens or Eagles would be teams he'd be interested in.

  3. Does anybody know who has the final say on uniforms? Is it the team solely? Or does the NFL provide significant input and the final say on the decision?

     

    I'd love if the Bills rolled out a simple throwback design. However, I haven't been impressed with any of the new uniforms of other teams the last couple years.

  4. Outside of the game itself, everything about the Super Bowl was an unmitigated disaster.

     

    The talentless singing, worst halftime show in at least a decade, USAF fighters flying over the enclosed stadium.

     

    F to the A to the I to the L.

     

    I like the idea of the audience singing the National Anthem. That would kick some ass.

  5. This revolution is all for show. The Egyptian military is the alpha dog in that country. It's well financed, well equipped, with an outstanding intelligence network. Every President of Egypt is former military. Sadat was assassinated by elements within the Army. Mubarak is former Air Force. His new VP is former Army.

     

    All of what you see...the riots, the attacks on western press, etc. is all casus belli of the big bad military crackdown soon coming. As long as the military runs the country, groups like the Brotherhood will be lucky to remain a relevant political organization and not to end up dead, in prison, or on the run.

     

    This revolution could be put down in ten minutes. It soon will. Just have to build enough cover story for the coming brutality.

  6. Time to be Debbie Downer on Pegula.

    I think Wilson has had a succession plan for a long time. I think it's been kept private because fans will probably hate it as it swaps out one type of uncertainty (does he have a plan?) with different uncertainty (what will his daughters do? Sell?) and Wilson does not want to subject his two daughters to the media and fan circus it'd create.

  7. 1. The very best of the NFL takes on the very best of college football.

     

    2. Move it back to the continental United States. New location every year.

     

    3. Require teams to use certain play packages, as voted on by the fans. Defense can only use schemes from the 70s, offense from the 80s, etc.

     

    4. Losing team pays the winning team.

     

    5. Winning conference "wins" the coin flip for the next year Super Bowl.

  8. Maybin does not have football smarts or intuition for the game, and that can't be taught.

     

    No team is going to be able to turn the lights on.

     

    For the hell of it however, I would have spent this offseason trying to see if he could be a TE.
