Quoted: Being dead and then not being dead is about as big as a personal accomplishment as it gets. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Obvious pick but he hasn't succeeded after the adversity yet. Other than not staying dead. Being dead and then not being dead is about as big as a personal accomplishment as it gets. The survival rate for CPR cardiac events outside of hospitals (typically defined as the patient lives to be discharged) is very low. Many who make it that far end up with some kind of disability. Hamlin surviving and going back to football things is probably bigger than any on-field accomplishment we’ve seen. |

It probably ups the odds by having the most professional responders and equipment at games from ppretty much anywhere or anytime. I see your point but he had better odds than most with professional help almost immediately. |

Quoted: Quoted: I assume we're factoring in trade value. How about your entire draft for Ricky Williams? That was nuts. Despite all of Ricky’s problems, he rushed for 10,000 yards in the NFL. In 2003, Ricky rushed for 1853 yds at 4.8 ypc for the Fins. Dude LOOOOOVES his weed |

As I previously broke down, Packers have 14 WR/TE on the roster right now. They combine for around ~120 career receptions... So they're gonna bring in a "veteran" who has 85 career receptions, but only 2 in the last 2 years combined. Also has terrible fumble fingers (9 fumbles). Seems like a great fit for them, I have no issue with this. |

Davante Adams via The Ringer : While he was in Green Bay, he existed in the shadow of Aaron Rodgers, with interviewers constantly asking him questions about the quarterback's heroics, rather than his own play. Adams would make one miraculous catch after another, only for Rodgers to receive most of the credit. While many did praise Davante's stellar play, he felt other narratives followed him, too, such as:
Davante's succeeding only because of Aaron. After leading the league in receiving TDs, career high YPC, and a third straight 1st team All-Pro, "Now people can't say that. That'll never be the narrative ever again. It proved that I am me. A quarterback doesn't make me. ... I make me. And I can do it consistently at this level. That's why [last] season meant a lot. Even if I went and played like dog shit next year, they can't say it. Because now I've already proved it throughout the course of a season, played every game, and put together a resume that says I do not need... You can erase all the numbers. You can just write in: He didn't need Aaron Rodgers." |

Warren Sharp went OFF on Twitter (over 15 Tweets and still counting/going) about the disparity/unfairness in the 2023 schedule. I won't include all of them, but here's a look. Spends a lot of time on Rodgers/the Jets receiving a historically large rest/travel advantage as well as the Chiefs receiving a historically bad rest schedule.

A prospectus prepared for Josh Harris' bid to purchase the Commanders is predicting financial windfall with Snyder's removal.
A 43 page document titled "Commanders Investment Opportunity" and labeled "Privileged & Confidential", prepared by Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment and its advisors was obtained by ESPN. It predicts that the removal of Dan Snyder as owner will boost attendance, ticket sales and sponsorship revenue, as well as the team's prospects for a new stadium. The Commanders think Virginia "will offer the best incentive package - potentially up to $1.5 billion" for a new home, the document shows. That sum would nearly double the American-record $750 million in public funds the state of Nevada put toward a new Raiders stadium in 2017. Last season, the Commanders made $173 million in local revenue -- dollars generated from tickets, sponsorships, parking and other team activities, according to the prospectus. In his base estimate, Harris projects that number will more than double to $380 million by the 2031-32 season - and could hit $466 million that year if the team builds a new stadium. |

"meanwhile, 6 teams play ONLY ONE game where their opponent has extra time to rest/prep for them: NYJ, BAL, CHI, TEN, ARI, CLE must be frustrating for those 4 teams to have to play SIX GAMES with that disadvantage, and look over to see there are 6 teams this year with that disadvantage in only ONE GAME" |

The Pat McAfee Show is moving to ESPN.

Quoted: My criticism was of Davonte's reasoning. According to the article, he wanted the reporters to massage his balls after each game instead of A-A-Ron's. That's childish and immature. Now there are certainly adult reasons to want a trade, like thinking another team might be a better contender, or because you wanted more money. But that's not the reason the article cited.

Yeah I think Adams left a hole too big to be filled by what we had to put on the field. I don't blame a player who's put in his time with a rookie contract and then an actual contract wanting to go play somewhere else if thats what they want to do. A lot of players get sick of Green Bay and don't want to go there in the 1st place. I wouldn't blame someone for that. Having tons of money and nothing to do has to get old. Blaming the media for not being 'the star' is a low tier excuse, though. |
