  1. Essegian was a great get from Wisconsin. Sharp Shooter and can create his own shots. Immediate starter. I don't think he came here to be 6th man. I don't know about On3, but Griffiths from Rutgers was a 5 star and rated as the #20th rated HS recruit in 2022/2023 by 247. Ranked #1 in Connecticut - which is a pretty good hoop state. As a 6'8 scorer on the wing, I think Gavin Griffiths is the best get of the bunch. I am so glad we added these two scorers. But all of these new guys seem to be pretty nice pick-ups. Edit: Griffiths Ranked 20 by 247 Ranked 30 by Rivals Ranked 36 by ESPN Ranked 39 by On3 (and their super hard & mysterious ranking guidelines)
  2. Getting TJ would be huge! Keeping him here even moreso
  3. It's still early. Start in June or July. Give me the White Sox. Have a good feeling about them.
  4. What's next, eliminating fullbacks too ??!?
  5. That is athletically amazing !!! To put into context, he basically jumped from beyond the NBA 3-point line to the baseline. And he's 5'10

    I agree 100% Since the 90s I've been waiting for the Chicago Bears to return to white jersey with white pants on the road, every year.
  7. Hartzog felt like a liability near the redzone. Not because of talent, but because teams could pick on him at 5'8. Also deep one-on-one matchups. If Hartzog was 6feet I'd feel better. I think Matt Millen said he was really short when he stood next to him, and looked 2-3 inches shorter than the listed 5'10. But, I think Hartzog is talented and does pretty good cleaning up on tackling. Might be more suited for FCS
  8. Love seeing 2AM getting flowers and having success. Kid gave his best to Nebraska and was all class the entire time. He dealt with the hard questions after every game, regarding losing close games, turnovers, being benched and even got his degrees at UNL. Even though it didn't exactly turn out the way we hoped, he's still one of my all-time Husker favorites.

    Denver Broncos bringing back the 1977 Orange Crush Uniforms https://kdvr.com/sports/denver-broncos/denver-broncos-release-1977-inspired-uniform/
  10. The reason why I prefer to see the Huskers play at 11am.... And hate when they play at 230pm.........Is the Networks And with the same tradition and format, the NBA screws the viewers the same way. Grrrrr Games are scheduled 2hrs and 30mins between games...... But aired on the same network/station. Grrrrr I don't like missing part of the first quarter because the previous game is dragging on with timeouts or overtime or post game interviews. I get amped up for the tipoff/kickoff.....for days..... But we get joined "in progress" halfway into the 1st quarter.... Grrrrr There has to be a better way to broadcast these back to back games. No offense to the previous game, but my whole day or week is amped up for the other game...... And you screwed me out of seeing the kickoff and tipoff.... /Vent
  11. Do any of yall remember 1992, Braves clinch World Series postgame? How times have never changed From the LA Times McCarver said the first time Sanders doused him, he was so shocked that he pulled a muscle in the right side of his back. After it happened a third time--while he was doing interviews--McCarver said he went in search of Sanders in the Braves’ clubhouse. “I didn’t know what I would do or say, but as I was going toward the middle of the clubhouse, Sanders was creeping up with another tub of water,” McCarver said during a conference call with reporters Thursday. “He said, ‘Where’s McCarver?’ and I said, ‘I’m right here.’ “He tried to hit me with another tub that missed me, and I said, ‘You know, Deion, you’re a real man, you are a real man.’ I thought it was a deliberate, cowardly act.” Deion Sanders, in a taped interview with TNT’s Ernie Johnson, said: “How can you be a coward for throwing water on someone? The guy just didn’t want us to win and we did. He just got a little wetter than anybody else. He’s flat-out ignorant. He’s more of a coward. I never met the man, and I never spoke to him in my life. We were just having a good time.” For the record, McCarver was not just the analyst during the broadcast, but was a Major League Catcher from 1959 to 1980.
  12. Chicago also drafted the punter from Iowa, Tory Taylor in Round 4. Ray Guy Award Winner, 48.2 ypp, can flip the field and pin the ball inside 10 yard line. Nice get.

    Pretty good counter about Winston And others have benefited from domes and others have failed as well. The bottom line is really this.... I'm just a Houston Texan hater CJ Stroud is actually pretty awesome.

    They get a cut (NFL) if worn. They get another cut (bigger) if players switch to one of the new 6 helmets they rolling out this year. No one here (me) is downplaying brain injury and lawsuits as an option. But I knew someone would touch on that as a pivot, instead of agreeing that guardian caps look horrible and stupid.

    The guardian cap is an embarrassing look for the sport, and it looks stupid. But, someone has to make money f#&%ing things up, as long as the NFL gets their cut. That's how it goes. Speaking of keeping things unreal, CJ Stroud doesn't play for Pitt or New England or Cleveland or Jets, Giants, Buffalo, etc..... CJ Stroud plays 9 games underneath a dome for 9 home games, with no wind factor or temp below 55 degrees..... And plays road games in Indianapolis, Jacksonville Florida and Tennessee. He practically playing 13 games out of 17 with perfect weather like the combine. I'm not buying the hype. Because most QBs can do pretty good in that environment week after week. He sucked at Baltimore. The proof was there.
  16. Yeah I noticed that too about the grades and rolled my eyes. I like the Bo Nix pick. Wish it was Penix instead, but Atlanta knows Cousins has 2 1/2 years of guaranteed money with Achilles injury. For a team that plays under a roof like CJ Stroud does, it was a smart move. No matter how unpopular. The future matters.
  17. DR will start in 2024. We will throw better and score more. Frankenstein was our quarterback last year. Got us 5 wins.
  18. My Chicago Bears drafted QB Caleb Wiliams and WR Rome Odunze with the first 9 picks in the 1st round. So happy that they nailed it. The future looks very good for Chicago.....
  19. Sneaky good indeed, Sensei... Hai!
  20. Sorry Homie... We are usually pretty good with the puck into the net thing. Except in OT and Conference Finals
  21. During "the covid period" ? The time when the world was turned upside down? People dying. Zoom meetings, masks, covid shots, etc... I mean they even played games with cardboard cutouts for fans. I don't mind teams getting fines, penalties and probation. As long as it was outside of that nerve-wrecking crisis time (covid).
  22. Yeah that's the point I was making, is that it really isn't caught until it's too late, and often times accidentally. I have lost loved ones from it too.
  23. NBA Playoffs 8 teams per Conference Teams seeded 1-6 are in. Teams seeded 7-10 play to become the 7th and 8th seed. Western Conference #1 - OKC #2 - Denver #3 - Minnesota - vs Phoenix #4 - LA Clippers - vs Dall #5 - Dallas - vs LA Clip #6 - Phoenix - vs Minn Tonight - Tuesday #8 LA Lakers at #7 NO Pels - the winner earns the 7th seed and will play Denver in the 1st round. That is what is on the line for this game. #10 Golden State at #9 Sacramento - the loser of this game is eliminated from the playoffs - However, The winner of this game then plays the loser of the Lakers/Pels on Friday, for the final spot and 8th seed, against OKC. All rounds in the playoffs are best-of-seven series. Even though I think the first round should be best-of-5 series, because the playoffs are long and we really don't need a game 7 in the first round. It's already a long season, and we don't need guys getting tired. Either you are good enough to advance through 5 games or you are not. We are in April and the NBA Finals will be in June. But I digress.... I am adding this so that I can have it handy when watching the "play-in" games tonight and friday. It is still a little confusing at times. But it's ok
