Wife's friend's husband has a new R8 V10 (not the GT), as well as an older (06-07ish) Maserati GranSport Spyder.
Bastard still hasn't let me drive either of them.......

No clue on #2....#3 looks oddly familiar, but I can't really say what it might be. #4 looks to be a 599XX Evo....

Neither are worthy of a first round pick. Geno was a product of a system that threw it a ton, so his stats were on point.

Only answer is Geno.
Even his tweets from around 2 days ago imply he was told in no uncertain terms he'd get picked at some point in the first. I really hope as soon as he was out of camera range he pulled his agent aside and asked him "just what the frick was that?".

The knock on Nasib as a passer isn't his arm strength - it's that he tries to rifle it in there way too often, and in too many situations where putting air/touch on the ball would be preferable to trying to throw a frozen rope....

Well no shite all bad decisions come back on a coach to one degree or another, but using your first draft pick as a HC (and a top 10 pick at that) to take the QB you coached the last 3 years in college, a QB that most consider worthy of a 2nd-3rd round pick at best, leaves you absolutely zero fricking...
