  1. You don't know enough about corner play to know how gawdawful his technique was last year (and frankly, has always been). He was barely a good enough athlete before to flip his hips or stay low on his slide step and the calculated gambles he used to take have devolved into nothing more than guesses that he can no longer recover from. Everybody that knows what to look for can see it, which is why nobody in the NFL has offered him a contract and he's currently begging for the Bills to resign him. You can pretend you know what you're looking at and that everybody else doesn't, but you don't.
  2. Rasul Douglas' repeated problems in coverage last year had absolutely zero to do with anybody else on the field.
  3. Kevin Bacon has to be Ken O'Brien though...
  4. Morning coffee at 10:00? What are you, a banker ? - )
  5. I live in a rural area with limited supplies and I remember it eventually getting to the point that I would have to get up really early and buzz down to the gas station to grab a USA Today before they all sold out. Presumably to guys who were running other leagues and doing the exact same thing as us.
  6. What would make you think he's likely not to perform all that well? A guy in his contract year that is all about the money is going to be in great shape and playing his ass off to get paid. A 3rd rounder now vs a 3rd rounder down the road is nowhere near enough of a difference to just throw away a key piece to a championship run. The idea that it is even close is nothing more than pointless posturing.
  7. They look like they're not comfortable being pressed by Houston's extended D and aggressive man.
  8. What do you think the Bills could get right now for a 2 down RB who wants an exorbitant salary and is seemingly willing to sit out if he doesn't get it? Maybe a 2nd rnd pick? Compared to possibly getting a 3rd round comp pick if you don't deal him and he walks via FA? You're talking about losing arguably your most dangerous offensive weapon while trying to make a SB run; is that worth moving up just one round on Day 2 of a draft that's over a year away? Having as many hands as possible on deck for a SB run right now is faaaaaar more important for moving up a single round in the draft 13 months from now.
  9. This comically bad review process is just sucking the air out of every game in this tournament. It's far worse than any of the idiocy the NFL was guilty of over the last several years. How do you expect to maintain any tension or drama when you repeatedly bring the galdanged game to a screeching halt for no reason 5 times in the last two minutes to double check that the tenths/second on the clock are perfect? Between this and the transfer nonsense, the boneheads in the boardroom are making the greatest tournament in the world unwatchable. Eat your heart out Wilt Chamberlain!
  10. I would not be opposed to you adding the word "wildly" to this sentence
  11. I just told Spencer Brown where you live...
  12. And just last week I was extolling the wisdom of Kelvin Sampson. He's so smart he can even make me look smart!
  13. I really loved him when he worked as a draft analysis with Mike Mayock back in the day. Very smart and definitely knew his business. I don't hear him enough as a color guy to have a legit opinion though. And here's a shirt you may need:
