  1. Anybody hear a weird scratching noise on the broadcast? Almost like someone's eating chips
  2. You would have hated root beer barrels because of #2 and #3.
  3. Baez out of the lineup tonight with an "injury" to his heel...which didn't seem to be a problem as he pranced up the foul line yesterday
  4. Ugh. Root beer barrels were the WORST Halloween...just ahead of candy corn.
  5. This pretty much sums up anything related to Rodgers this year thanks to a clown show in the media. Honestly, people should hang out some of these reporters to dry. It is a joke. It was a few days ago some reporter was convinced Rodgers was going to sit out like 4 weeks of the regular season. Thing sure changed quick. Rodgers showing up day one to training camp always seemed predictable to me. In the end, money talks, always. Rodgers was not likely going to subject himself to $50,000 a day fines for holding out of training camp; and was never going to cut the Packers a check to pay back the bonus money the team would have been entitled to if he held out. He had "his people" feed the media nuggets of a story while remaining virtually silent so he can have plausible deniability to the notion he would never play for the Packers again. If the reports that he turned down a bajillion dollar extension are true, then the money didn't talk.
  6. I'm operating off the assumption that Rodgers wants out of Green Bay and will never sign an extension. Given that, I think GB did ok.
  7. The team that trades for Rodgers would probably be the team willing to sign him to an extension. So I'm not sure the one year left on his deal matters all that much.
  8. Please define "badly" I, for one, am happy that there is now a logical endpoint to all this crap. This cloud of uncertainty will be hanging over them all year along with the media circus that that follows it. Anything less than a Super Bowl will result in more finger pointing. If they don't win a Super Bowl there would have been finger-pointing no matter what happened this offseason.
  9. I think players understand the business side of football much better than the fans. I don't think any player on that roster will care about the offseason. At the end of the day, he missed mini camp.
  10. Not sure how. I think GB made out pretty good. They get one more year of Rodgers, can still trade him after the season, can keep him another year after that (doubtful), get another year to see how Love has progressed, got some cap relief....doesn't seem too bad to me. I think the only way this ends badly is if Rodgers tanks the season on purpose and as petty and grudge-filled as he is, he also has an ego and a concern for his numbers and legacy so the odds of that are minuscule.
  11. Locking until someone else picks up on this. Source for rumor is quite sketchy.
  12. We shall see. There are plenty of desperate GMs out there.
  13. True but QBs are barely hit these days. I think guys can play longer and be successful more than they could 10 - 20 years ago.

    The Olympics

    That’s a big part of it. Looking at this year’s All-NBA Team, 3 out of the Top 5 players were born outside the US (Giannis, Luka, and Jokic). Fournier is really good. Gobert is an All Star. It's not like these are the Washington Generals out there.
  15. I don't think there's a snowball's chance they lop off the last two years of his deal and let him walk after this season.
  16. Mike Florio is sad. Edit: He literally tweeted this 10 seconds after I posted that:
  17. "Per Rittenberg, the Big Ten is only interested in adding schools from the Association of American Universities (AAU). Per the AAU’s website, the only Big 12 teams included in that group of schools are Iowa State and Kansas. Rittenberg also pointed out that the Big Ten would have interest in Pac-12 schools that are AAU members, such as California, Washington and others, and that Notre Dame, while not included, would be an exception to the requirement."

    The Olympics

    I think it's simply a matter of the rest of the world catching up to the US.
  19. Ted Lasso season 2 has begun. We just discovered this show recently and it's really good. Just a breath of fresh air.
  20. Book about championship season (Eric Nehm from The Athletic) https://www.triumphbooks.com/built-for-this-products-9781629379609.php#.YP7NhT7oe58.twitter
  21. "Bucks in 6" has been around since like 2013 so it's very possible they've had that for a few years.
