ouch man.

Some people take disrespecting the police as a whole very seriously. If you can't do the time...

I don't know. I do know that peak incidence of mood disorders is in your early adolescence to early adulthood. I don't know when Richie was diagnosed, what medications he was stabilized on, or even if he was stabilized at all. I don't even know what he was diagnosed with. He may just be a dick. It's probable that he is. But I don't know. How much do you regret that Colin Kaepernick tattoo?

We already know.

No.

It's so easy to be right. It really is.

Putting that level of offensive talent around him is impossible long term. Free agency would gut your talent.

What could I have been mistaken about? Besides you jumping in making an unclear point.

How do your friends act when they are in acute psychosis?

Nor do I, but it could certainly be perceived that way, which is what I was trying to say. Agreed.

I thanked Hokie for his stats sincerely, but nice assumption. You know what they say about assumptions. I REALLY don't care to argue this nonsense anymore. Winston was not traded for a 3rd rounder by a team this offseason. Winston did not join a team with a #1 overall selection to replace him this offseason. It's okay, dude.

In 2054, now for a look back at Tyrod Taylor: Was he good enough? MY COLUMN

2.0 rules are so tough. I just remember "lower is better" and wing it. Doing an ironman playthrough right now. Only reloading on MC death. If you drop, you drop. Makes it kinda hilarious, leaving statues of petrified people everywhere.

You jumped in the conversation with "weapons mattering" between Jameis and Tyrod. I countered with "talent mattering" between Jameis and Tyrod. It's okay. The TT talk is almost all over. A handful of games in CLE and that'll be curtains.

He didn't play great on the road against CLE, but few Celts did. He did drop a cool 25 point on 53% shooting in a close out game against Philly. He also dropped 24 on 46% shooting after losing two straight to the Cavs in a huge win. He outperformed Simmons in the biggest stage as a rookie. He's second in NBA history in 20+ point games in the playoffs as a rookie, behind a HoFer and top 10 player in history. Tatum got so much praise because of HOW READY he looked in primetime and big games. I hate the Celtics.

Jayson Tatum says hi.

Yep. But honestly, that makes the most sense to me. Ceilings over floors for the most part. Give me Robert Foster (the Bama WR idk if that's his name) as my $500k #6 WR and let me see if he can become something, rather than signing a 30 year old Andre Roberts type for $1M. I know they tried to combat that with cap relief for vets, but it's not gonna cut it.

Ainge: So Kyrie, I know you demanded a trade last year because you were sick of Lebron. How do you feel about playing with him this year if I bring him on? Kyrie: No way man, I don't want to play with Lebron Ainge: Okay okay, I completely understand. You're now a Phoenix Sun. Good luck this year. The biggest problem with the 6ers, IMO, is they got EXPOSED by the Celts. They have a bunch of young guys that played to their experience level. The Celts went out there with an equally young team and looked like experienced vets. The Celts could be in the Finals next year, but the 6ers still have a couple of years to grow, IMO. If they get Lebron, then I take them over the Celtics every single time, but they should be in the market for an experienced superstar regardless. Kawhi or PG, maybe. I haven't given up on Fultz, and Embiid/Simmons can still grow and develop their games, but, IMO, the Celtics young core of Tatum, Brown and Rozer are already better. I hate the Celtics, FWIW.

I think the NFL FA market is one of the most interesting in sports, because it sometimes seems very whimsical and based off recency. Case Keenum, for example. 1 very good year for him and he got $25M GTD over two years. The Brocketship had 6-7 games of "decent" play and signed a 4 year deal, with $37M GTD in the first two years. To me, that's the market taking a step back, not forward. Then you have Sammy Watkins getting 3 years, $46M, $30M GTD. And Allen Robinson gets 3 years, $42M, $25M GTD. Now Sammy has slightly better numbers compared to Robinson, but Robinson missed basically a whole year on an ACL. Per game, Robinson has better numbers, and played with a mediocre QB on a mediocre offense his whole career (so did Sammy for most of it too). So why the difference in contract? To my eye, Robinson should've gotten paid more. Then there was that wave a few years back of QB "prove it" deals. Kaep, Tanny, Taylor all got big contracts with "outs." But that seems to have fallen to the wayside compared to front loaded deals. Bradford comes to mind as a guy given a once off payday, paid like a franchise QB for one year. It's odd, really. I think it's impossible to predict. To the OP's point, the wave of the future may be incentive-laden midlevel deals. Rather than paying a Manny Lawons type player more than everybody else, structure his deal so that he can EARN more than what everybody is offering. If he doesn't earn it, he makes the normal amount at market value. Could teams fill out their mid to bottom rosters better with deals like this? Everyone is offering 2 years at $2.2M AAV to a vet LB, but if you have 80+ tackles at the end of year one, you got a $800k bonus?

It was a harmless tongue in cheek comment about playing again in the NFL. Everyone take sixteen deep breaths. Richie was reported to have acted EXTREMELY psychotic based on his Baker Act documentation. I think we are well-past "suspected."

Not feasible. I disagree (a little). The bottoms of the rosters, say the bottom 15 or 20 guys, are basically UDFA/vet min replaceable. 3rd string OG's, DB's, LB's, RB's are dime a dozen.

Huh? I said #1 picks have more talent than sixth rounders. You came back with "Tyrod is starting over a #1 pick," as if that invalidated my argument. What was your point, exactly? No no, John. The Browns spent a third rounder on Taylor and their #1 overall pick on Mayfield. They CLEARLY believe in Taylor more than Mayfield.

Transplant says Tyrod is more talented than Mayfield. Wow. Saved.

You can't have it both ways dopey. That's my whole !@#$ing point.

The distinction is irrelevant. Both comments should not have been made as they were stated. Period.
