  1. Zach Wilson has a Russian mail order bride? Trey Lance, I don’t know what your agent told you but that suit says you’re collecting empty plates.
  2. The Sabres are still playing games?
  3. Splendor Solis was a revelation, Zeppelin fronted by Jim Morrison. lucky for Hugh Dillon he is better at acting than either singing or catching his own spit but he was decent at both. Going a direction other than “best” IMO, some underrated and underexposed bands of the time period were 54.40, hHead, Chixdiggit and particularly 13 Engines, I still spin this disc at times. Great poppy grunge of that era that should have gotten more well known, and not a clunker on the disc. Stands the test of time. Would be on my list of top-10 or so albums from GWN. It’s like if Bush wasn’t as annoying and derivative.
  4. it was only in Rockpile that Dave ever acknowledged there was rock music that wasn’t pre-Beatles
  5. It just seems far too often when he tries to bounce outside the tackle and someone just grabs his shoe and drops him.
  6. Singletary gets what he can between the tackles, and he's pretty good with those quick hitters, but because he really can't threaten a team outside, he's limited.
  7. Whenever I'm feeling down, i spin this up This Kevin Gilbert cover actually shocked me And just released for 50th Anny, I suppose that's Ian and Martin in silhouette/caricature And the two above combined made me think, hmm when did JT do harmony vocals? I guess shortly after Ian roached his vox on the Stormwatch tour... Bonus from the overlooked "A" album being the sublime keys/violins from prodigy Edwin Jobson, late of U.K. (with John Wetton, Allan Holdsworth & Bill Bruford) Which reminds me of Bruford and Holdsworth teaming up with bass prodigy "Les Claypool before there was Les Claypool" Jeff Berlin leading to the pleasingly fusion "Gradually Going Tornado" album... and future teams with Kazumi Watanabe, but that's a tale for another time And this is just because nobody knows that Marc Ford did so much better stuff before the Black Crowes poached him
  8. Give it up for the Zacher & Ertzans reference ppl
  9. Almost as if he was a rookie? His strength and top-line speed was actually markedly subpar for his size heading into the draft, that's how he dropped to the bottom of round 2. Yet he still made impact plays consistently for Iowa with superior leverage and motor. The coaches had to tear him down to build his speed, and next comes building the strength. His development will be like Allen, I hope. Overwhelmed at times as a rookie, flashes and progression year 2, impact year 3.
  10. Ah crap. Now I'm in an era.
  11. Bee Gees are seriously underrated in their late 60's/early 70's work. Superb craftsmen of pop songs.
  12. The Megadeth of their era. Virtuosity + vitriol. Can't believe how Lake's voice quit. Keith had to downtune the songs to bounce down to Greg's lack of range at the time. Lake's vox on the first few KC and ELP records was legendary, it was as sad as Ian Anderson or Elton John's blowouts.
  13. Carl being an animal for 50+ minutes People don't understand how violent this band was with respect to the music scene in 1970. Black Sabbath was heavy; ELP was menacing. They were high cerebrum and high testosterone. They used all their music on those boomer sports highlights because there wasn't X-game X-treme foolery at the time.
  14. Don't recall where I read the insight, but it said the secret of Brady isn't extraordinary athleticism (clearly) or off-platform improv (clearly) but in executing the on-script stuff perfectly, every single time. Some guys can run the plays correctly but without the physical gifts to execute with live bullets (see: Peterman), and some guys can get by on athleticism alone (see: Lamar). If JA17 ever gets close to the Brady standard while being an absolute lab-hatched QB unit and having broken play superiority as a safety net, has the sport ever seen anything like that?
  15. For as long as memories of your loved ones live, they too shall live. May the memory be eternal.
  16. I thought he was a Liberian warlord...
  17. I come to bury Mahomes, not to praise him.
  18. Red snapper! Very tasty! Edit: Beaten to the punch
