    Mourinho is such an enigmatic figure. He is a football genius, im sorry but he is, yet he is utterly incapable of humility or perspective. Lets face it, United has been in shambles since Furgeson left, when Jose came in he did right the ship, winning silverware in the process and securing a CL...

    The Niners just gave one of those shmucks 7 million dollars to carry the ball. Also, all homerism aside, McKinnon's 4 seasons he has never been given the chance to feature. He was an understudy to Peterson before he left/was injured, and then went on to only start 14 games in 4 years. He has...

    For the Rams it is. Dark horse SB picks are....dark horses. No one believes that shit before the season. But the 49ers were the hottest team by the end of the year, and we might have the best QB who's ever touched a football field. In all seriousness though, I don't expect them to make any...

    Even my 49ers are a shining example of how fast a team can change by chance, luck, circumstance etc. They started 0-9 last year, had dismal QB play, and just weren't a good team (they did lose a record 5 straight games by 3 points or less, but still). They were literally competing with the...

    Yea, it's really the lifeblood of the NFL. There is parity, and constant changes in who competes and who doesn't, with a few exceptions (Patriots). Look at what the Saints did last year in the draft. Went from being literally one of the worse defenses in NFL history, to a solid unit in less than...

    This is such a strange time in the NFL, with QB's and whats happening with their contracts. Cousins might be a pioneer with his guaranteed contract, and Garoppolo is gonna make 40 million dollars next year, having started only 7 games. It's a weird market. Guys like McKinnon are getting 7...

    Am I a heretic for abandoning this game 5 hours in after being swamped by a massive backlog, and never picked it back up? I loved it, its an amazing game, I just never committed and finished it.

    Ronaldo is every bit as good as Messi, Its a tired argument, and Messi has had better form of late, while also adding a new dimension to his game by scoring on set pieces now. Yet Cristiano has 8 goals in 8 CL games, and just seems to continue to produce. He has also been pretty great at...

    Niners could have and should have drafted the honey badger when we came out of LSU. I probably wouldn't take a flier now, as taking another injury risk is too much too stomach, and they still have Jimmy Ward to play that Cover 3 deep man. They still need a slot corner and maybe another corner...

    Sherman's contract is similar to Keapernicks like I said. Heavily incentive based, the front office is really pressuring guys into signing these trigger based contracts. It's good because they save money on bad investments, but it's bad because free agents will be weary of going there when...

    The Corner was also really good. Was done by Simon a short time before the Wire and it has many of the same actors. The Corner is a bit more dark, and is really tough to watch at times, but it's a great show. Reg Cathey is in that show too and he plays a legendary dope fiend. I think it's a...

    Sherman is betting on himself, like Kaepeenick did. The 49ers should actually be in salary cap hell given what happened with Kap and them signing him to a monster contract in 2014. Thing is, Kap was an idiot, and so was his agent for loading his contract with all kind of incentive based...

    How the fuck is giving Sherman 7 million guaranteed a risky move? He might hit some incentives and reap in the 13 million, but if he does, its worth money because he would have played at a high level. The guy has been the best DB in the NFL since 2012. Six seasons is forever, I hate the guy but...

    I know your trolling, but Jimmy G and Kap are the furthest thing from similar, in any respect. That sidearm touchdown throw Jimmy G made while moving to his weak side pretty much encapsulated him as a QB. He is able to.. Make multiple reads, and only when there is nothing available, escape...

    See and some of you guys were hating on me because I questioned the Rams linebacking core. Ogeltree is still a good player and like Daez said, he was actually pretty decent in 2017. But the Rams were apparently ready to move on, as the unit as a whole wasn't that great and now Barron is going...

    Word is they are trying to trade Earl Thomas as well. What is Kam Chancellor's status? If they end up getting rid of Thomas and cut Sherman, with Bennett now gone, their entire legion of boom and defensive identity would be dismantled. This is for salary relief, but its also a shift in their...

    He only tested positive for that because of some tainted mexican tacos he ate. Seriously, he said he unknowingly ingested the substance because he ate tainted "meat".

    Lol I can see LeBron playing till he's 47. I bet he could post 15 pts 5 assists and 5 boards a game at 44-45 if he avoids a major injury. He is going to play as long as he can just to obliterate all the records he can. By the time he retires he could feasibly own the points record, most...

    I agree. He isnt likeable at all. His Addidas shoes are trash, his monotone personality and beard is trash. I mean, he might be the MVP of this season and is a menacing player when it comes to scoring the ball and affecting the game from a floor control standpoint, but he does complain a lot...

    I was watching that game live and it was a clear catch. What more do you want the fucking guy to do to "complete" a catch? They mine as well require him to hot potato the ball to himself as he goes to the ground to prevent it from touching the turf at all.

    I dunno maybe I was lulled into a false sense of reality by viewing the Chiefs defense through a fantasy lens. They have been a great fantasy points per defense the last few years. Most of my football knowledge is kind of filtered through the fantasy scope besides information on the 49ers. So...

    Peters is OK. He is better than most corners, but has played with an awesome core of d-lineman and backers for most of his career, this will continue somewhat with Aaron Donald and company, but it will be interesting to see what he can do on another team. I still want the 49ers to sign Malcom...

    You cant play this game without the lockpick or save mod. I also feel combat is incredibly unresponsive and clunky.

    The market will balance itself out. I dont think the league will step in, what will most likely happen is the quality of the QB position will start to increase (it has had ebbs and flows since the 70's, with the late 1980's/early 90's being the golden era for QB's, with Montana, Marino, Elway...

    Im not saying im on with the numbers, as 20 plus million a year for a RB is obviously not realistic. But when the QB market is so lopsided, rosters are very limited in what they can do when they have to pay franchise QB money to any QB who has a pulse. If you broke down all of the top talents...
