What was the thread where that njbuffcuse (or whatever his name was) guy went off the deep end? Watching people completely meltdown is always funny.

No changes on this end!! I just know how to have a good time. I do need to issue a warning though to anyone that hasn’t been to Wrestlenania. It is by far, the longest event that you will ever attend. You will be there 6 to 8 hours. It is a different feeling.

I went this year. It’s a good time. There are so many wrestling events that go on that week. I have a friend that was at a show that started at like 2:00 AM on a Tuesday. I will always go to WM when it comes to New Orleans. I don’t know if I’ll ever travel to attend one.

He’s in year 5 in the league. That’s not a complete failure.

He’s has outlived the average NFL career despite a mental breakdown where he ended up with no pants on. I would call a day 2 pick a solid pro. He probably has amounted to an average 2nd rounder.

I kind of agree too BB. I don’t know what is a better solution. It’s weird because if the offense fumbles on the sideline they maintain position but if it goes through the end zone you turn it over. It doesn’t make a ton of sense.

I think that this is exactly right at this point.

We agree with that. That’s kind of the exact point that I’ve been trying to make. Their talent is elite. I can’t stand them but recognize the quality of player (and coach) that goes to the that program. Also, Cyrus Kouandjio was the 44th pick in the draft. He wasn’t some elite prospect that failed. He was a guy with some talent and some questions that is now in his 5th NFL season despite some clear off the field issues.

...and Robert Foster has more yards in the last two games than he did last season at Alabama. He wasn’t good enough to crack the lineup there but is playing a lot here. It works both ways.

I thought so too. He struggles in the power scheme. my gameballs: Allen, Hughes, Kyle, Milano, Poyer

Yes, I would accept that trade. I like Allen. I am not an idiot.

Dwight Howard?

This is EXACTLY where I’m at. Paradis and Saffold in FA and another guy that can play OT in the draft.

Throw it down the field and take the dive

They are getting run over

Speed!!!!

We just disagree. I don’t think either of us is ever changing our opinion and we will never know the answer.

We don’t necessarily disagree here. I think that they probably have 10+ first rounders and 20+ guys that are top 2 day picks. The Bills don’t have that. They are clearly further along but I don’t see this massive talent disparity. They are at different stages of development. 31-10 has been my prediction and I’m sticking with it.

They had 12 drafted because others weren’t eligible or wanted to raise their stock. They will have another 12 or so this year. The same again next year when Jeudy and Tua are eligible. They have 30+ (conservatively) NFL players on their roster.

You are supporting my point. Teller played very well. He is no more than months removed from being a mid-round pick. Perhaps, the OL would have been better if he had taken the role earlier? He didn’t become a completely different player than on draft day. The same for Tre White the year before. He was a good college player and a few months later a good NFL player. “Potential” NFL players isn’t fair either in some cases. “Future” NFL players is more accurate for the top guys. Quinnen Williams will be a top 5 to 10 pick. He’s not “potentially” an NFL player. He just isn’t there yet.

Vlad Ducasse doesn’t even play!! He lost his job to a middle round rookie. That’s the guy that’s going to push around and physically dominate a top 5 pick.

I actually think the exact opposite. They have 2 defensive tackles that will be round one picks and starting in the NFL in 9 months. I don’t believe that a decent NFL back is going to run all over these guys and injure them. Russell Bodine, John Miller and Wyatt Teller aren’t pushing Quinnen Williams and Raekwon Davis around!! That’s crazy. The 2 best players of those 5 both play on Alabama. People think that there is some magical improvement between big time college football and the draft. There isn’t. The elite players are elite. Because of the nature of recruiting the elite players are concentrated in a few programs. If you follow recruiting you will see that the top classes are the same schools every year. That means that they have the best freshman, the best sophomores, the best juniors and the best seniors in the country. This isn’t like the salary cap world where everybody has a handful of elite players, a middle class and back of the roster players. At a program like Bama the back of the roster and middle class players get recruited over. They play 4 and 5 star recruits. They play future NFL players.

We can probably kind of figure it out. The Rams - Alabama hypothetical spread is 49.5. If Alabama is a 45 point favorite against UCONN you are looking at 94.5. I would think that they’d cut it some just because it’s hard to score that many points. Say that 45 is cut in half to 22.5. I’m thinking a spread of 72 for the Rams over UCONN. I’d lay the points.

I wish that it was that easy. Long story short, some crazy guy ended up at a party in my house at college. I threw the guy out after he punched 2 random guys in the face, I got punched in the head and all hell broke loose. That guy is now in jail on murder charges and a hate crime. He got into a racial war And hit a guy over the head with a bat (he did that at my house too). He was also the prime suspect in a murder where a guy got killed with a hatchet. I have no idea how that ended (despite my grand jury testimony) but think he’s in trouble. Last I heard he was serving like 25+ years from the hate crime. I google the guy every so often to see what he made of himself but don’t get too far.
