    That won’t mean anything to anyone around here.

    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    I’m an old fart who remembers Kiper, DrZ, and Berman doing it on a Thursday afternoon. Agree, would take that over the spectacle any day.

    Wow. I like Penix a lot, but that’s a surprise.

    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    Whatever people think of BB’s talent evaluation skills at this point, he is far from alone in considering Maye a talented, but raw, prospect/project. I think they had to take a shot with either him or Daniels, but having some reservations about him is not an outlier opinion.

    He still wants to coach in the league.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Ah, ok. I guess Monty could go that route, though I think the actual impact of media gamesmanship on the officiating by either of them will likely be minimal. Marchand got away with one last night, but I’m not real worried that he’s now going be subject to make up calls.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    I think they fire back the way they largely have been in this series: with tough, smart physical play. Their hit numbers are way up from the regular season(some of which is, of course, is attributable to the nature of playoff games). I don't think pushing the envelope with retaliatory...

    One Draft Hot-Take

    They trade down and up with the Huskie battery of Pennix and Odunze.

    Bello to IL with lat tightness

    Yeah, this is absolutely insane. I'm probably going to get flamed, but is there possibly a culture of over babying pulls, strains, "tightness", etc. with the Red Sox? Or something fundamentally flawed in their approach to conditioning or injury prevention? I'm honestly wondering/asking, not...

    2024 Lineup (What we actually have - no trade speculation.)

    If this looks like a season ending thing, I would hope/think an aggressive approach to finding an external replacement is on the table. The good start, outstanding performance of the pitching staff, and the pending return of other key players from injury all should mandate being committed to...

    The Krafts

    I think we largely agree. I was just taken a back a bit by that reported questioning of his integrity. Big ego, demanding, even arrogant would seem fair game to me in describing Bill honestly to one of the other owners considering hiring him. Integrity feels like a bridge too far. But I agree...

    The Krafts

    But if it were verified, would you view Kraft calling Bill untrustworthy just a salty ego thing? Seems like that would veer a little further towards a smear. I don’t disagree that believing Wickersham lock, stock, and barrel would be a major change of course around here. But combining this with...

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    All standard, boilerplate, liars poker season stuff. I still fully expect them to take Maye or Daniels at no. 3.

    The Krafts

    This pretty much sums up where I am, at least terms of his personal life/character. The orchids of Asia thing was phenomenally stupid, and showed terrible judgment. Beyond that, who he’s dating or socializing with means absolutely nothing to me. I am souring on him a bit over these pitiful...

    What is next for BB?

    It would’ve been a somewhat bold move to replace Siriani, but not out of character for Lurie. He pulled the trigger on Pederson just 3 years after he won the Super Bowl. I think he’ll get there soon, but touché, agree to disagree/see how it works out. Don’t disagree at all with your summary of...

    What is next for BB?

    Probably fair on Siriani, though I think he’s a clown whose limitations were on full display last year. But Hardo? He’s got more than enough of a track record of falling short, with arguably no worse than the second best QB in the league, to justify a change. Hell, he probably should’ve been...

    What is next for BB?

    Absolutely. And that belies the notion that teams with good, contending rosters aren’t, or shouldn’t be looking for a coaching upgrade to break through and win a title. BB would be a huge step up over McCarthy, Hardo, and Siriani. To name three. Beyond that, if the Krafts were trashing him...
