  1. I think you'd be surprised at how often it happens in other sports. College football regularly ejects players for targeting but I'm not going to search around to find out how many since there are so many teams. I really couldn't find any data on NHL in a quick google search but with fighting and game misconduct penalties with ejections I'd imagine they have quite a few ejections too. If you'd include soccer, they regularly have ejections as well due to red cards but I couldn't find something quick for EPL or MLS. - NFL had 16 player ejections in 2022-23 regular season/playoffs - about one player every 9 total games. LINK - NBA had 70 player ejections in 2022-23 regular season (based on fines for ejection, not sure if all players received a fine for being ejected or there could be more) - about one player every 19 total games. LINK - MLB had 62 player ejections in 2022 regular season/playoffs (total ejections were 177) - about one player every 40 total games and about one player or manager every 14 games. LINK
  2. This. Quick Pitch on MLB Network had something on this last night/this morning and they have the camera view of O’Neil going from second to home and it looks like he’s going at like 3/4 speed with little effort to me. Couldn’t happen to a better franchise.
  3. I know this is a few days old, but I just had surgery so I’m just sitting around and this caught my eye. How do you justify considering his college completion percentage to hold more weight than his pro completion percentage outside of being a homer or wishful thinking? Even with the Bears being able to add more talent with their draft capital and thru free agency with their massive cap space, they still won’t hold the massive talent gap between teams as Fields had playing at OSU. He also likely had a significant gap between coaching, scheme and resources compared to many of the teams played in college that he won’t in the NFL. Fields wasn’t more of a pass first QB while at OSU (didn’t run as much at Georgia but hard to put much stock into about 80 combined attempts as a backup across 12 games) compared to what he’s done with the Bears. In fact, he has less rushes per game (and essentially the same amount of throws per rush) in the NFL than college - he’s just been more productive when running in the NFL. Rush/Game: OSU - 9.91 Bears - 8.59 Pass Attempt/Rush: OSU - 2.66 Bears - 2.53 I’m a Packers fan (and most definitely biased in the other direction), so I’m obviously hoping he’s terrible in the long run and the Bears waste these draft picks trying to building around Fields. Heck, I’d love for him to show some unsustainable progress this year that leads the Bears to sign him to a massive, long term contract that blows up in their face.
  4. Giannis is playing. This team is going to be lots of fun as they keep getting healthy. ETA: he literally left the floor as I made this post.
  5. I really don’t understand the bolded statement. Were you less of a Brewers fan when they’ve gone to arby with players in the past and did the exact same thing when making their arguments to the panel? Why aren’t you also upset at Burnes team for not meeting the Brewers in the middle and avoiding arby all together? The remaining 10 players who were all arby eligible managed to settle with the team and avoid this.
  6. I have to imagine there was at least speculation of that based on his previous role under Fickell at Cincinnati. Wonder if he feels there is a better chance to get an OC role somewhere coaching QB’s instead of TE/Passing Game Coordinator?
  7. Interesting…
  8. Crowder to the Bucks for five 2nd round picks.
  9. Howard commits to UW.
  10. Yup.
  11. I suppose we can get on to 2023 with the miscellaneous college news thread. B1G commissioner is leaving to become the President/CEO of the Bears. Any guesses on who replaces him?
  12. Shouldn’t that theoretically help all of our OF prospects when they come up?
  13. As if we needed it, but another reason why Giannis is awesome.
  14. This is a little old, but the Bucks were picked to win the Eastern Conference and NBA Title in the annual GM survey. https://www.nba.com/news/2022-23-gm-survey
  15. Figured we should start a thread for the upcoming season. Bucks play their second preseason game in Abu Dhabi tomorrow and third overall. So far they are 0-2 but that doesn’t really matter. Any predictions for the season?
  16. I don’t care if teams have good or bad draft grades. I’ll read some of them to get additional opinions of the draft but I’m happy with who the Packers picked and feel like they got some good players at positions of need - won’t know if it was a good draft for a few years. I hope the Vikings, Bears, Lions and every other team in the NFL all have terrible drafts as I want the Packers to be better but I’m not going to pretend to know much about how those players will fit in schematically for other teams. My question to you came about because of your statement “The Bears did a lot to improve their team with scheme fits. So did the Lions, Vikings, Rams, Patriots, etc.” that was then followed up with this statement “It is even more fruitless when you have a new GM, HC and offensive/defensive scheme and you have no idea who is on that roster, what that scheme is going to be (zero tape) and how these players fit with those schemes.”
  17. So, how do you know the Bears (or Vikings, etc) had a good draft when it comes to players that will fit their scheme?
  18. Is pick 74 the latest the 2nd QB has been drafted?
  19. Adams did have issues with drops in his first year as a Packer.
  20. What would we need to package with #59 to move up into the late 30’s/early 40’s?
  21. Pickens or Watson at 28 if they are there?
  22. What are some good mock drafts to look at? My buddy talked me into doing a Draft pool and I’m not against using some other experts to help me do it.
  23. He deepens the pen, yes., and the option players can come back this season or next to help out. We agree. And yet you are totally overlooking his stats against lefties the last two seasons! That is the real story…. Whip under 1, ERA around 2. Stats against righties are down right awful if you take out his work against lefties. Loogy. How is a .677 OPS against him “down right awful”? Those were his numbers from last year against righties.
