  1. Wow. Yeah this certainly suggests that QBR, at least, is broken. Honestly I don’t pay much attention to either stat. There’s much better advanced stats out there. Problem with both I think is they try to condense overall QB performance into a single value. QB play is too complex to distill into one value. They sacrifice usefulness and accuracy for conciseness.
  2. Gotta be 6 right? diggs - sanders - beasley - davis - mckenzie - kumerow. unless one of them has been inactive this year and missed it, I think all 6 usually dress.
  3. No. The Times named a few other recipients- one was the founder of Hooters, another ran some bowl game in Tampa, another was an owner of a fried chicken joint. edit: fun fact - the bowl game guy is Jim McVay, uncle to Sean. He makes a mil a year to put on the Outback bowl.
  4. Well, you happily omit one pretty key distinction in your little exercise in whataboutism - one party was a prominent NFL employee in a leadership role, the other parties are entertainers who work for themselves being contracted for one day of work. Pretty sure the league is on solid ground applying different standards to the two. points for squeezing “free speech” into this, when it has nothing to do with free speech.
  5. Yeah he got that wrong too. Federal is known as FOIA, the NY state law is usually abbreviated FOIL. It’s a not a big deal.
  6. So many inaccuracies here - the investigation that uncovered these Gruden emails was an internal league probe into WFT’s workplace culture, let’s say “issues.” It has nothing to do with the federal criminal investigation into WFT’s trainer. FOIA would not apply, at all. FOIA would not work for the criminal investigation either at this point, since that investigation is still active. You’re conflating things here. Read the thread you’ll get a clearer picture. And how do you think the papers got them? My goodness edit: it’s FOIA if you’re talking about the federal law.
  7. Tasker is back in studio today, for those wondering.
  8. No we won’t. He is playing great now. He wasn’t previously. He had a drop rate of 19% his rookie year. That’s abysmal. He stunk. No one needs to apologize for pointing that out then.
  9. You should gather that context. Beyond that though, there’s always youtube. You can watch him there. Because he’s gone for good.
  10. They had the perfect opportunity and ample evidence to do it this past year or so. They chose not to. He’s being protected by the more powerful owners in the league.
  11. Funny how that works, huh? Smh. I’ve said it a million times here and elsewhere, Dan Snyder is a horrible human being. The fact that the NFL continues to actively defend that guy through their coverups and “investigations” is appalling.
  12. That’s an important distinction to make thanks.
  13. Indirectly, Snyder. But the league has plenty of his emails already, trust me.
  14. Not like the Bills have any real threat within the division either, but yeah i agree
  15. Baltimore needs to pay Lamar yesterday. They aren’t saving themselves any money with games like that.
  16. I get you and sure, most aren’t going to demand your login information for your gmail account. But they will employ firms to thoroughly comb the internet for public facing social media statements, and they will ask you to disclose such accounts. But there’s also a level of trust and chance involved, as you said. In a place like the NFL, where the applicable talent pool is small and nepotism and cronyism are infected throughout, there are many, MANY bad actors like Gruden still waiting for their day in the sun. I hope they expose all of them. I never use my work phone for anything other than work. My cheap friend uses his for everything. PSA: don’t be like my friend.
  17. bud those cheerleaders were WFT cheerleaders. Not just random porn images. Big difference. being against female officials isn’t “evil?” You seem very fond of that characterization. Eeeeevill. No, Gruden’s comments are not evil in the biblical sense. Crass, idiotic, distasteful, and, most of all, grounds for termination? Most definitely. (Also, why wouldn’t we want to give females a shot to referee? Not like the men are doing any kind of adequate job. We witnessed that yet again just last night.) Uh, employers routinely look into prospective employees’ social media history. Been doing it for years.
  18. 💯 and on top of that - Gruden was a leader. A head coach 3 times over. Leadership gets held to a higher standard. Not a hard concept to grasp.
  19. The emails involving Gruden are not all 10 years old. Reports say the emails sent to the Raiders and subsequently leaked spanned 7 years. There may be emails even more current than that. If you check earlier in the thread, you’ll see how they came to the league’s attention. (They were discovered because the emails were between Gruden and his good buddy Bruce Allen, former GM of the WFT.)
  20. not sure how being “woke” has much to do with this. If I denigrated my CEO’s decisions, passed around nude photos of female colleagues, and called the CEO a f——-t, and then he/they found out? Yeah I’d be fired for cause and wokeness had nothing to do with it.
  21. I’m sure they’re digging. The DEA isn’t as leaky as the NFL. They reported on the raids.
  22. We would know more about Snyder and WFT, but the league was so horrified / embarrassed / scared ****less about what they found that they purposefully instructed the investigator to not create a written report of her investigation. An oral report of her findings was given to the league in private instead.
  23. Probably because the Feds are still actively investigating that.
