  1. They get a goalie prospect and a first next year for Reinhart. I guess they finally gave up on Ukka Pooka Sambuca.
  2. My analysis in 2018 was not on the mark. It was something like this: Mayfield-cocky prick who will be an average QB. I wouldn’t draft him until the 20s. Not way off Darnold-Turnover machine that might improve. Maybe the best of a bad bunch. Off…at least so far Allen - A most likely losing lottery ticket who can’t throw. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off Rosen - Entitled douche bag who will suck. I nailed that one Jackson - More of a passer than people think and less of a runner. Probably worth a late first. Backwards but ended up in the right spot. I didn’t want the Bills to draft any of them and considered that maybe trading for Cousins would have worked better. Oops.
  3. I’ll grant you that Tim Murray was the worst GM in the history of professional team sports and that the Sabres haven’t exactly executed well in trying to recover from that. But they are ungrateful pukes. Are they entitled to just walk into a room and be handed a Stanley cup and a villa on the beach in some glitzy locale or should they have to work? WTF has Reinhardt ever done to be in some sort of position to demand a trade to a specific geographical area? The Boston raised Eichel is really showing the classic Boston personality lately with the experimental surgical demands that will magically disappear if he is traded to a team desirable to him. That’s really C material right there. At least Risto tried hard. Good luck to him. I get that it isn’t all on them….I do. But mature individuals prefer to be part of a solution. Jack and Sam are not mature individuals.
  4. Bruins fans amirite?
  5. Looks like they got a first for Risto...I'll take that.
  6. Can't be as bad as a team that makes me think I just pulled into the Gulf station.
  7. Honestly thought Risto or Sam would be gone by now. Eichel I expect to take longer. If they don't make a trade tonight I think it means this front office may try to rival its predecessors in the ineptitude department.
  8. Jerry is lying as he has absolutely refused to hire or to be a good GM.
  9. I disagree about Mittlestadt..and Thompson too….but understand your point. Mitts has top 6 potential on the Sabres I suppose but is 4th line at the absolute most on a real team. Agree on Risto; we need a good return.
  10. Were there rules on how the positions were protected or did teams just follow the same formula? Borgen was certainly more protectable than friggin Mittestadt.
  11. I wish I could find one that says they'll take Skinner. I did see one on Youtube that mulled the possibility of Okposo going which I found astonishing. I think it will be Borgen or Miller.
  12. From the article: "Unprovoked"? Spandex mafia apologists at it again.
  13. I don’t think this was the right thing to do under any circumstances but understand she was troubled. Perhaps she should have waited until she saw a spandex mafia parade before using this strategy.
  14. Did Hughes play the entire season hurt?
  15. Trade deadline is July 30 after which he’d have to clear waivers. They could cut him though.
  16. When I opened this thread I was hoping it would be about some broad running over some spandex mafia.
  17. First time Skinner has played a team game in quite a while.
  18. Definitely a serial killer even if he hasn’t been caught yet.
  19. It is petty by the Eagles. Ertz probably deserves it for acting like a pouty puss but it will probably hurt the Eagles more in the long run with other players who might be less inclined to sign there. They should realistically just release him like any team would with a malcontent player worth about a third of his cap hit. They’re probably focused on something short sighted like denying him a path to re-join Wentz or something silly.
  20. That is a little weird but it is probably because no one wants him. That’s not a comment on his playing ability as much as it is his salary. The Eagles probably don’t want to eat any of it but no team in their right mind is shelling out 8.5 for him.
  21. Did Wentz injure him, cause him to take so long to recover, ask him to go through the motions upon his return or jinx the connection with Hurts?
  22. Excuse-o-meter set to kill. The two offenses are not the same and comparing Ertz catch numbers to Knox is flat out silly. Look, Ertz was decent, albeit overrated, at one point in his career but those days are obviously gone. Throwing a chunk of the salary cap on wishful thinking is not Beane’s MO.
  23. Perhaps that went over your head. The point is that Ertz primary appeal at this point in his career is his “big name”. He was absolutely horrible last year and his name won’t help him in 2021. Is a bounce back to above average possible? Sure. So is a leap forward from the younger, stronger, hungrier guys we already have. Tony Gonzalez still has a big name but would be no help to the Bills in 2021. Ertz wouldn’t be either IMO. As for “we don’t know what is happening right now”, that is true but it is clear that there isn’t some sort of bidding war for Ertz. Why might that be? Beane has managed the roster and cap in a highly efficient manner and has some big contracts to core guys coming up. Throwing draft picks and big money at a washed up tight end does not align with really anything else he’s done since he got here.
  24. He changed his name to Phil and hid out for a while. Then his head got squished.
