Speaking of Dennis, what’s up with the sideburns? (or lack of them) Allenopecia? [img]https://i.imgur.com/uyoue0X.jpeg[/img]...
So the Saints picked Fuagua to replace Ram and Kool Aid to replace Lattimore. So status quo 9-8 record? ...
Looks like Embid has Bell's Palsy or some similar nerve issue. Look at the left side of his face. It droops when he talks; only the right side moves. When his right eye blinks, his left eye doesn't. Something's wrong....

re: What were the Falcons thinking?

In about 8 years, when Penix develops into what Geno Smith is now, you will rue the day you scoffed at the Falcons decision-making. ...
Dauda has a smooth stroke and is a nice rim protector. Length, 3&D. I’ll take it. [embed]https://youtu.be/x9SpXv-ddK0?si=KYrid4OJeMEVzlra[/embed]...

re: Dillon Brooks wrote the book on BI

I grew up in awe of fade-away mid-range shot that Larry Bird & MJ would routinely make in the clutch, in the playoffs. That shot was a trend-setting separator move much like the step-back 3 is today. I never thought I'd see the day I'd hate that shot. Brandon somehow has made me hate it. He shoot...
Blow it up. IDGAF anymore. New Orleans as a franchise has had its fair share of teams make darkhorse noise in the regular seaon but they've had only 9 playoff appearances in 21 years and only twice did they advance to the second round, where they then lost both matchups. This is likely its 7th fi...

[quote]The game was much more brutal and violent back then and players literally died on the football field. It got so bad the sport was nearly banned.[/quote] Yep, from 1900 to 1905, there were 45 deaths, usually from broken necks/spnes or internal injuries. It was practically gladitorial. Tedd...

re: 1908 National Champions?

I thought for sure I saw the 1908 team recognized among the section of upright metal plaques of championship teams outside of the Tiger Stadium entrance with player names listed like Doc Fenton. If so, that's an official championship claim, no? Or am I misremembering & going crazy via the Mandela...
It absolutely blew my mind as a teen when I read a "Making of" book that Lucille Ball & Groucho Marx were both considered/auditioned for Scarlett & Rhett in "Gone With The Wind." The pictures in the book of the young 20-something Lucy were pretty glamorous and convincing. Groucho, not so much. Tr...

He definitely is open to moving into the Top 10. He must've mentioned it 6 times (albeit vaguely). It's like he has a credit card with next year's picks burning a hole in his pants. When I clicked on the vid, I wondered if he would mention trading up to around 10, where many mocks have Olu Fasha...

Not sure if you realize but the '25 HS guard doesn't play until October of '25. This thread is about getting portal players for the start of the season in October of '24. And how is anything I said considered a meltdown? I only listed facts that I view as underwhelming. I don't see how anyone can...
[quote]All 3 underestimate CKM’s resolve and intelligence!!![/quote] I'm hoping Kim gets involved, & not just as a closer (bc some don't even make it to campus to hear her pitch). I've lost faith in Redus after witnessing a whole year of hollow tweets. Dude has whiffed on every PF/C in HS recru...
[quote]How did we get there originally?[/quote] During WW2, when Britain was getting their shite pushed in & asked us to save them, they agreed to turn over their colonial/foreign bases to us. That's when we became an empire and (most of) the world's police, while England became a shell of its f...
I could be wrong, but from what I remember reading last summer when Alisa Williams left in June, there's no difference in rules regarding graduates & undergraduates entering the portal. IIRC, anybody can enter the portal at any time, however, if they want the chance to return to the school they i...
