    NHL 2017-2018 Season: Penguins already sucking dick

    It's probably just recency rankings. Tampa hasn't been nearly as dominant recently with Hedman out and Kucherov on a goal scoring slump (which he ended last night). Boston has been the hottest team in the league of late. Doesn't mean they'll be the best team down the stretch.

    Considering who some of these teams are paying, their GM's have no right to talk about "putting the best players on the field". McDaniels is a whole extra level of stupid. Says yes, then no.

    Rock made $65 million last year it said somewhere in one of those articles. Plus if Rock and Stallone are the ones prodding you, pretty likely they're friendly with Gronk and will at the very least get him side roles in some of their films. Agree that option will probably be there still for...

    @StoiCynic sounds like the Rags are going into sell mode. They do have some pieces that will be attractive to some teams, too. Wonder what kind of hauls you might get for Nash or if you go FULL sell off and look to move McDonagh.

    This is true. Of course, do you know how many games he has started? Seven. They didn't exactly beat powderpuffs either end of last year. That was with his best receiver Garcon out hurt too. If they get him some more help...I mean, Niners set NFL record for started 0 and whatever with all...

    Well of course you can, but the amount of "Brady blew the game" commentary has been a little puzzling given what he actually did in the game. I kind of just chalk it up to Brady hate (because it's really easy to hate on the guy and his team). I mean Dioblaire, you're a Broncos fan, not...

    Yeah I think 505 yards with 3 TD's and no punts is pretty much "everything" and more that can be expected of someone. Frankly, while Brady's not a great athlete and that played a part...the throw WAS a little high. Foles much easier catch.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    The argument is he was bobbling/ball was moving or sliding in his hands during him originally having feet in bounds, thus doesn't actually have control at that point (would be same thing if ball was tipped up while feet were in, but by the time receiver actually hauled the tipped ball in, they...

    Barnwell did a good breakdown of the Pats' D, and how protected they were by their offense. They were like 31st ranked D in DVOA rankings, but he was comparing how many actual drives against they faced over the course of the season, versus Jacksonville's defense, and he found that Jax D...

    Good for the Niners. I am extremely interested to see what they do in the draft to get him some weapons to throw the ball to. I'm sure Lynch won't neglect the D, either.

    Flacco not really able to be cut currently. Joe Flacco Even if they wait 2 more years to cut him in 2020, still $8m of dead cap that year. Possible, but still probably 3 years away. As I noted above, Dalton only has $2.4m in dead money if you cut him this year, so he can be cut.

    I love my NFL and NHL...although I'd say currently the replay problem is actually worse in the NHL with the ridiculous offside challenges taking goals off the board. They tried to reduce it by giving a team that incorrectly challenges that a penalty to discourage so many, but still just see...

    I get what you're saying about precedent in general...but that doesn't actually apply to almost every catch b/c they're all slightly different situations, rarely is each one going to be the exact same potential issues happening at the exact same time throughout two different catch scenarios...

    Him wanting the US Census data was interesting. I assume they're trying to get data on what % of the overall population was wiped out by the pandemic.

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    The ball can move and still not be a loss of control. When a guy completely has both hands off the ball to then re-grip it, that's when I think people have a case. If he doesn't get 2 feet in bounds after getting hands back on the ball, by current rules it would be incomplete.

    Makes me wonder if there isn't some other secret way, or if they're all just worried about factions popping up trying to dominate both worlds. You already have one that has been devastated (seemingly at least) by a pandemic, so trust will be low. One could easily suspect the other of giving...

    The final TD I agree. The earlier one frankly I thought was worth a look, and I'm still not positive according to current rules if they got it right. Collinsworth was loving him some Pats last night, but he had plenty of room in his mouth for Foles' cock as well...along with Pederson's...think...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    There's ball moves a little "loss of control" and, I had both hands off the ball and had to re-grip with both of my hands, loss of control. You could definitely see that on the replay. Now if it was about not being able to definitively see if he tapped part of the one foot in bounds before...

    So this is the new controversy? Should Eagles have been flagged for illegal formation on Foles' TD catch? Frankly, if it's a judgement call, I'm glad they didn't flag it. Shit like this would just be too much.

    They gave up a shit ton of yards and were poor in DVOA ranking, but they had the 5th best scoring defense in the league. A lot of that is because of how great their offense is at protecting their D, plus they have good special teams so their defense didn't face a lot of short fields. Probably...

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    He was clearly a runner, so didn't matter, soon as he breaks the plane, it was a TD. I'll be honest though, the other catch rule one I thought maybe should have been incomplete by current rules. Looked like he had to re-grip the ball and one foot landed slightly in the white after that. But...

    Pats lost game in which they didn't punt once. That's pretty much all you need to know about their D. They really need to find some help there.
