    Seems like a bad trade.  My friends from Ottawa seem to think that Norris is a hit away from retirement.  Cant keep his shoulder healthy

    Cozens is softer than baby poo. They can enjoy him.

     

    To clarify, Lord Terrance and his minions have ruined this sport for me so I frankly don't care and the most interest I have is as a heckler and for the disaster porn of it.

     

    I flipped a game on out of boredom a week or two back and the Missus (whose only knowledge of hockey comes from watching pee wee hockey) looks up and says "My God their defense is terrible." Even she can see the positioning garbage and half assed effort. What hope do they have?

     

    That Samuelson wears a letter is a complete joke. That Cozens also wore one is just sad.

    We are in the best spot along the offensive line we have been in a long long time 

     

    There's a reason we let the NFL in six offensive lineman packages last year by a wide margin 

     

    Our team came to the conclusion.. and Anderson's tape shows... That he was an asset on the field last year so they tried to get him on

    Until the AFCCG when he apparently just forgot to keep reporting in. Even though he had been doing it all year they would have you believe that he just up and forgot at the most important time. Sure he did. Sure he did.

    The rush against Arizona late in the game still stands out to me.  
     

    It was a good “get right” season for him derailed by the suspension.  
     

    Keep him at 30 percent of the snaps; free up cap space.  I think his presence is important.  

    Arizona. Week 1. Great.

    Say what you want about Von, but not many pro athletes are willing to do this sort of thing

     

    props to him if he takes another big paycut

     

    & who knows maybe he could stay healthy and manage to get 8-10 sacks 

    Did he look as fast at any point in the year as he did on the first play against New England when he needed that sack to hit his bonus? Did he look that fast at any point after?

    Reminds me of the death of Matt Simmons an icon in the oil and gas finance industry.  He had a vacation house in Maine and passed out in the outdoor hot tub that had and drowned.  He wasnt discovered for several days but apparently the hot tub kept running till it finally shut down.  He was found like a piece of meat, all the body fat had been poached out till the tub stopped working, they found him under layers of congealed fat.

     

    One of my "favorite" stories, besides I didn't much like him.  Visualize that, who go the lucky job of cleaning that out.

    And this is why you never buy a used hot tub.

    All of these guy are expecting insane money, all are on the downside of their prime, and all will cost significant assets to get. Beane would essentially be betting his job that we win the SB within two years by pulling off a move like that. I don't think he's willing to do it.

    And if they don't win the SB in the next two years you're staring at the reality of an over 30 QB at the start of the inevitable decline.

     

    Win now.

    He is still under contract for next year. Mike Brown will ignore any and all trade demands and make players play out their contracts. Diggs would have played for the Bills if Mike Brown was the owner. There is nothing that a player can say or do to force his way out of Cincinnati. He doesn't extend until he absolutely has to and doesn't give huge signing bonuses. Hence the Chase situation. He's also going to make Higgins play on the tag for the second straight year. He's very much an old school owner who treats his players like labor to be exploited. Yes, he broke all these rules for Burrow but that was very much an exception and not a change in management philosophy. 

    Brown gave him permission already.

    I've heard that just a tiny amount, like the tip of a pencil, of fentanyl can be deadly, but in every drug bust, they seem to find full-sized pills. If there are so many pills out there, why aren't we seeing millions of deaths? I know the death toll is still high, but I'm curious — is the idea of the pencil tip just a way to emphasize the danger? After all, a single pill contains more than just that small amount.  

     

     

     

    Because, like most pills, there is a significant amount of filler material that isn't the medication in order to make the pills larger, bind together into a pill form, etc. 

     

    When making these sorts of things if you don't have a consistent homogenization of ingredients you will have some pills with too much of the medication and some with too little. The margin of error in fentanyl is very small and the people making the pills don't have the same quality control as say an actual oxycontin factory would. When they have hot pills come out people die even if they are taking their usual dose.

    Cherry picking past drafts is silly.  Every single GM passed on both of those guys twice.  I don't see you giving any credit for Shakir in the 5th, Benford in the 6th, Spencer Brown at the end of the third.  I could go on...

    The scouts usually do the end of the draft and the coach and GM do the top. One has been a lot better than the other.

    Are they going to focus on wrist strengthening?
     

     We had an awful lot of wrist injuries last season.  

    I've gotten enough warnings tonight. I will allow this absolute beach ball to pass me by.

    Gonna be bummed if we don't make a move for one of the elite talents available.   Crazy offseason. 

    At some point we should just start drafting the right guys at the top of the draft instead. It's a lot cheaper.  Could have had either Metcalf or McLaurin in that draft (or both). Got Cody Ford and Devin Singletary instead.

    Yikes...here's another fun fact. Joey made this year's Pro Bowl with 5 sacks and 5 TFL's....let that sink in.

    When Tyler Huntley made the Pro Bowl that cemented it's place as a worthless endeavor.  This is bricks on top of that cement.

    I’d rather sign Bosa the Clown.
