    Three day out check-in

    This is the eloquence my prior posts are lacking. @Ferm Sheller pointed out that 6-0 loss which to this day still baffles me how that can happen in the NFL. But it can, with poor QB, OL and WR talent the Pats have proven it is entirely possible to suck that badly. However, if I'm triaging...

    Three day out check-in

    Agree, mostly, but hate passing on what could be a cornerstone offensive playmaker in MHJr, and getting an OT in the second. Have them both play at the highest level this year. Then next year, if you are in the top 10, you can choose between another WR (like MHJr teammate Egbuka, or Lovett...

    Three day out check-in

    I'm thinking they will be in a position to grab a QB in round 1 next year, because I think this rebuild will take some time, and I think the Pats are drafting in the top 10 next year. I wouldn't be comfortable rolling with those two until 2027, but I am happy to have them drive this year - and...

    Three day out check-in

    I voted draft best available WR, even though I mostly agree with your analysis. In mocks I've been playing with, assuming that Williams goes in 1 or 2 (which happens in most cases), I sometimes wonder if it is good to load up on skill positions like WR/OT/TE/RB/CB/EDGE and give them a year of...

    What do you want Pats to do with #3?

    Legitimate question here - the Pats have drafted a QB high and, by most reports, have missed. Does drafting a QB in the top 3 do anything but defer the cost of signing a good FA QB 5 years down the road? Asked differently, wouldn't it be wise to draft Harrison or Alt at 3, and get an NFL-ready...

    NFL: News and transactions

    My FIL knows him casually. He is a giant asshole (tepper not FIL). he grew up with somewhat modest means, wasn't exactly popular as a kid. got passed over for partner at goldman twice I think, and made it his life's work to get enough FU money to live a life of financial revenge porn against...

    2023 Mocks

    Tried to get Mac a bunch of toys to see if he is worth extending at QB, Tomlinson so I can see LDT sitting on the sidelines of Gillette again (I'm a petty asshole), O'Connell to keep Zappe honest, Zack Kuntz because of his name and potential, Thomas bx I feel like a UAB guy at 192 could turn...

    Mocking you in 2022

    I've never bothered with these before, as I rarely get a "grade" I'd not be embarrassed to share - but, I'd still be pretty OK with this from PFF:

    Brian Flores suing NFL, Giants over "sham" Rooney rule - "mistakenly" (?) sent Belichick text may be linchpin

    This is where I land as well. Why on earth would the Giants let BB convince them to hire a talented OC out of the AFC East? Why would the Giants even care what BB thinks - beyond a superficial "plays well with others" comment? Would the owners secretly huddle with BB and lockout their brand...

    First time baseball coach

    None. I am guessing the feedback comes from watching him throw somewhat sidearmed?

    First time baseball coach

    Thanks for this thread. My son is 9. Played on an 8U select (?) team last year, and is on the same 9U team this year. He pitched, primarily, last year, as he was one of the few kids who were athletically inclined enough to (A) throw from ~45' to the catcher and (B) actually throw strikes more...

    Xfinity (Comcast) Mobile

    FWIW I called Xfinity about the WiFi calling and the BYOD and the rep said hang tight a few months then they are rolling both out. I’ll be keeping an eye on this because as an Xfinity subscriber this would appeal to me over the super costly Verizon plan we’re currently on.

    Daniel Flores, 17, passes away

    Yahoo Sports mentioned he had late-stage pancreatic cancer. My father died of that back in 2002. Insidious disease - no real symptoms until its too late. Horrible news and an extraordinary tragedy to hear it cut down a 17 yr old.
