Doc Brown

I don't know. We'd have Watson and AJ Brown right now if they decided to call and ask for my advice. Unfortunately, we'd have Rosen if they called me a couple years ago.

I remember wanting the Bills to draft Aaron Murray as a backup to EJ. Glad I'm not making those decisions.

Jesus christ. I can't believe I'm saying this but put Hutton in.

History says no. There's a post Superbowl depression disorder that usually disappears within a couple of weeks that the AFL took advantage of in the early 2000's to get a contract with NBC. Maybe this league will beat the odds though.

They're pinning all their long term hopes on a lucrative TV contract.

Let's see how it does over the next few weeks. The AAF ratings were great the first weekend and then dropped off quickly. I'd love to see elite college players join the league and make some money they can't at college. Come on Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields. Be the pioneers.

If Beane does his job Duke will be an afterthought by the time September rolls around. Duke should've been converted to a TE in college like Jordan Reed was.

That's a criteria for Bills WR's?

Pry better than an openly gay male. I'll give you +169.

Not for another 10 years minimum as the country becomes more secular. Only one state has an openly male gay governor and he was just elected in Colorado. If I made the political betting lines on who'd be president first. A woman or a gay male. I'd put woman at -400 and openly gay male at +250.

Fun article. The one trade that caught my eye is the Ravens sending a 1st and a 3rd for Stephon Diggs with the premise that the Vikings need to clear cap space. IF Diggs would be willing to come here (maybe sweeten his contract) I'd pull the trigger on that. He's a proven commodity in his prime.

I didn't read any of this thread but just wanted to say that Todd McShay's an idiot if the title is true.

Yup. Buttigieg is in for a rude awakening in South Carolina and more socially conservative states.

Where'd you get that? I'd like to see the vig on those odds.

I look at it as using your leverage to get a raise like any employee would do in the business world. I don't have a problem with players holding out if they feel they're undervalued or want a long term commitment in case injury strikes. The reason the player's union didn't fight to remove it in 2011 was because it impacts such a small percentage of players (less than 2% at least). I have my doubts about whether they'll seriously address it this time around as you rarely see the 99% go to bat for the 1%.

Oh god. I have no doubt the DNC will try to rig it. The last thing they want is Bernie to win as they'd rather see Trump in office than him. The lobbyists on both sides are happy as lobbying spending is at a nine year high and this 2019 was the first year we had above a trillion dollar spending deficit when we weren't in a great recession. They usually do it in more subtle ways like only releasing 61% of the votes even though it looks now that Bernie might take Iowa when all the votes are counted.

Mormons haven't taken to Trump like evangelicals so Romney can get away with it politically in a predominantly Mormon state. It's a political calculation. That's it.

Get rid of caucuses and switch to popular vote primaries. Divide the delegates by vote share percentage. I get the rationale but it seems antiquated at this point when voters are demanding more transparency.

Never going to happen as the Skins won't release him given his 32 million dead cap hit (21.4 million if they keep him). We'd never want to take on that salary via trade.

Ideally, I'd love if this regime was able to sign Mariota, Dalton, or Keenum. I doubt Beane goes after them though as this regime seems sold on Barkley. So....realistically I'd rather have a somewhat mobile QB that sucks rather than a stationary one that sucks. So, I'd sign Blake Bortles and let him battle it out with Barkley.

Or......they didn't do a trial run with the app and used it when it wasn't ready because they're incompetent. Just from a common sense perspective, the last thing the DNC wants to do after the bad reputation they got in 2016 is to make it look like they're rigging the primaries. The funny thing with the Dems making the process more transferable due to Bernie Sanders complaints in 2016 have created all this chaos in 2020 (now reporting the popular vote, first round votes, 2nd round votes instead of just the delegates). Now, it's rigged against Bernie again even though it hurts Buttigieg more as he won't get that traditional Iowa bounce. Maybe, just maybe, you shouldn't try to appease the radical/conspiratorial portion of the base.

I agree. An amazing talent who recognized a slight media bias to the left at the time so he was smart enough to go far right and gained a mass following. He is also very funny at times which is hard to pull off as a conservative.

If those results prove accurate that's good for Sanders and great for Buttigieg. Horrible for Biden. Paper ballots and primaries should be the standard. Get rid of caucuses. Bernie and Biden pry had to be explained what an app is.

Don't let him leave the building. Giving Allen a sure handed veteran TE safety valve would do nothing but help his development.

I thought this was only a Florida phenomenon.
