And to go a step beyond that, I DESPISE in shows when characters that aren't "supposed" to get together do. It's just unnartual and feels wrong. Barney and Robin should have never, ever gotten together and certainly not married. Same with Joey and Rachel, it just feels icky. It'd be like Shawn and Topanga getting married. It's just not natural


I dislike love triangles and despise people dating multiple people in close friend groups, especially when there's a back and forth. I never liked Barney and Robin but the show beat me over the head with it so much that watching them quickly divorce was actually a let down. I think it was because of how much time was dedicated, just prior, to them being together.

But it wasn't, and that was the problem. The last season was literally about Robin marrying Ted's best friend. That's why the ending doesn't work. There's too much negative history between Ted and Robin and fans had checked out on that relationship. I don't even like Barney and Robin together but they were the focus of entire last season, with even Ted saying that he and Robin don't work.

Similar happened to me which is why this time I passed on Graham, traded down and picked a DE in the 1st. This seems to be a strong draft for DTs but weak for CB and top heavy for DE.

Big fan if you had an early round DE but sometimes that's not how the board falls.

Quite content with my mock.

23. James Pearce Jr. EDGE Tennessee
44. Tyleik Williams DT Ohio State
54. Jonah Savaiinaea OT Arizona
71.TreVeyon Henderson RB Ohio State
87. Mason Taylor TE LSU
93. Denzel Burke CB Ohio State
112. Jonas Sanker S Virginia
124. Smael Mondon Jr. LB Georgia
184. Dont'e Thornton WR Tennessee
2026 GB 2nd
2026 DAL 3rd

Built up the trenches, some new weapons, depth for the defense with a chance to develop into starters, lottery ticket WR, and future early round picks.

Absolutely disagree. The last season is terrible. It drags on and on in a way that none of the other seasons. It is incredibly slow paced for 22 episodes and then breakneck speed for the final 2. I don't know if it was because it was singularly focused or not but I had to force myself to finish. Then, after dedicating 22 episodes to the wedding, it's undone in 5 minutes. Just a complete waste of time. I don't even mind the mom dying. I really liked Tracy and the actress did an amazing job with her limited time but that actually fits and explains why a father would take the time to in detail explain to his kids how he met their mother. There were clues dropped in the show that she was dead that people picked up on. I don't like Ted and Robin ending up together. The show goes out of it's way to show multiple times why they don't work, including a couple of episodes prior to the finale. I know there are years between the wedding and finale but because of rushed final episodes it's immediate to us as watchers. I think the finale could have been fine if they ended the show sooner but by season 9, everyone is out on Ted+Robin.

Well I was dead wrong about him getting $20 million. I’ll take the loss on that. It only takes one stupid team I guess. Terrible contract for raptors


He would have had to have gotten a foot amputated to get $20 million.

The offense didn't choke it away in the end. It was, always has, and always will be the defense.


No they choked it away the first 50+ minutes and the defense bailed them out time after time.

I completely disagree. It was a great playcall, all day to throw it, and threw to a wide open WR. It was a bad throw by Carr and nothing else.


Exactly. It was perfectly timed. Just missed it

They drafted Terron Armsteads replacement as funny as it is to say that.


This is true and Fuaga may not work out but it disproves the OPs assertion that no one listened. It was obvious that Ram's career was likely over and the team made a contingency plan.

The salary cap should sky rocket.

Currently, ESPN and TNT pay a combined $2.6 billion per season.

With these new deals, ESPN pays $2.6 billion, NBC $2.5 billion, and Amazon $1.8 billion.

So the NBA is going from $2.6 billion in TV revenue to $6.9 billion.


Does anyone know how soon the salary cap increase will be? Max contract are going to start approaching 100 million per season. Locking some players up might be the right move if the increase will happen within the next couple of years.
Money didn't seem to protect any of the other athletes that have been caught using peds. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. I'm not going to sit here and assume one way or the other without actual proof. He was investigated and cleared. The day he tests positive, I will be here to call him out like all the other cheaters.

Kids these days don't know and never will, Jordan would break Labron mentally before they even stepped on the court to play 1 v 1.


Post like this weird me out. Argue stats, play styles, defense, rings, etc. Breaking someone mentally though? It's basketball. LeBron has been one of the most famous basketball players on earth since he was 16 and probably one of the most hated (definitely most scrutinized) for just as long. He's still playing 20+ years later at the highest level. What do you truly think Jordan would have done to have LeBron crying in a puddle on the floor of the court?
quote:

We do have CJ, who's currently 32. But if we trade Ingram in the near future, then (aside from Matt Ryan at 27), our next oldest players will be Jose at 26, Herb at 25, and then Trey -- who just turned 24. Zion would be next, and he turns 24 next week.

Getting rid of Jonas, Larry, Zeller, BI, and Naji means that our team will be extremely young. We could use some veteran leadership.


You forgot Murray.
