I've been gone a few days. Checking back in on the Joe Marino situation. He ever DM @HerdMentality about the "brand issue"?

I love this crazy and strange twist this thread is taking. Some peak offseason posting and we're only in February. At this point I'm starting to think that YOU are Joe Marino and using these posts to draw attention to your own site. Because no one would really think they own their username. If anything, Scott owns all our content since he owns the servers and pays for the service. Also, you have a lot of other people to sue considering there are "Herd Mentality" boardgames, books, etc But I appreciate the bit of entertainment in the slow part of the year. Please keep us posted on how this goes.

IMO, Josh. And I'm a big Thurman fan. But QB is the hardest position to play, and to put up those numbers while having to do all the QB stuff as well, makes it the most impressive.

lol, whats the issue? is he using the phrase "Herd Mentality" or something?

And a part of that is Marv not setting curfews like our opponents and letting Jim stay out all hours boozing and carousing with Berman.

wonder if he doesnt end up back in KC

Myles Garrett

Classic Mark Davis

Oh, I didnt mean to imply he doesnt. I'm all about getting Garrett. He's "much" (football wise) younger than even Von was when we signed him. But there is a difference between trading for a 25yr old and trading for a 29yr old. With that, I think it evens that comparison, even with inflation.

I think its a good equivalent since Mack was entering the prime of his career and Garrett is at the tail end.

Beane would certainly have plenty of input since Terry needs his GM and HC aligned and working well together. But Beane would not lead the search. Nor would Terry like he does with the Sabres. He relied heavily on Russ's advisement for the Rex hire. He brought in a consulting firm that presented a number of candidates and recommended McDermott. I assume he'd use the same firm, get Beane's input, and make the decision from there.

"She's my hottest cousin"

I was just wondering what's the worst thing they could do to botch this up even further. Mike Brown never disappoints. Although this does align with the Peerless Price comparison who was tagged and traded. Brown is probably dumb enough to think a team wants to throw big money at his guy AND part with a 1st round pick. I dont see the Pats being that dumb. Maybe the Raiders?

Im perfectly ok with the Pats tying up $25M/year on Higgins as their #1 WR. If that is their big weapon add, we're doing ok.
