  1. How many "could have been picks" has Lee thrown today?

  2. This is all Tommy Armstrong's fault somehow.

  3. Ironically firing his defensive coordinator buddy will likely be Riley's downfall.

  4. Rex Burkhead got the start for the Patriots tonight.

      I haven't paid close attention to the game but it seemed like they didn't plan on having him play much after giving him the start.

      He just had a couple big runs, but his first run was poorly block and a 1 yard loss. Then Brady threw him two balls when he eas blanketed and he dropped them. One probablycould have be PI.

      Brady and the OLine really didn't look good last night. Rex looked like he was doing the best he could with what he had given to him. :dunno

  5. Would you rather eat at a eatin' place called Diaco's Tacos or Pelini's Paninis?

  6. Yards Per Pass and Yards Per Rush were both actually decent numbers on both sides of the ball.  

     

    Arky St.

    Pass - 6.1

    Rush - 3.9

     

    NU

    Pass - 7.4

    Rush - 5.9

      ED, there always seems to be moments with Riley's teams that NU can put a team away, but don't seem to do it, and let the team right back into the game.  When the D makes a big play and gets an INT in the red zone, the offensive line turns into a sieve and allows a safety.  Then, Arky State comes down and scores on the next drive.  So, NU went from a 10 point lead to a 1 point game.

      The questionable holding call on our long run in the 4th was really the difference between putting ASU away and what happened. That's football sometimes.

      The back to back holding calls were both sketchy.  On the draw play that would have put us at 3rd and short or something, Conrad just had his hands on the d-linemans shoulder and rode him to the ground.  Definitely no hold.

  7. Stan is the man.

  8. I don't know if I'll ever be comfortable seeing Penn State participate in major college football.

      Pretty much everyone associated with those crimes was scrubbed from the college,  but the fan's indifference to what happened and by who is disgusting.

    2. The Dude

      They certainly didn't have an issue glorifying Joe Pa in broadcast segments today.  I find everything about their continued participation to be disgusting.

      Didn't get to hear that. His name should be burries along with him.

  9. Floyd and Conor should form a tag team and take on CaneloGGG for the WBC shark skin tag team strap.

      Connor would get rocked by any offensive minded boxer.

      And Connor would kill any kind of boxer with the balls to step in a cage.  So....great point.

      I'd be willing to bet that top mixed martial artist are better at mixed martial arts than people who aren't mixed martial artists.  And it's probably the only sport in which this phenomenon occurs.

  10. Edelman being out increases Burkhead's receptions this season imo.

    1. Hoosker

      Hoosker

      That was my initial thought as well.  Great news for Rex, but it still sucks seeing such a great WR go down.  Edelman is awesome.

      Yea shame, these pre season injuries are the worst. Wouldn't mind if they cut pre season down, added a early game or two while being able to give teams and extra bye during the season.

    3. ZRod

       I'm really excited for Rex in New England! It's a great fit for him. Just wish Jordy ended up there too...

  11. Didn't catch it the first time but it was a crippling body shot that led to the 2nd round knock down.  I think he was hurt the rest of the fight and when Crawford hit him in the same spot in round 3 it was too much.

    1. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      That makes sense. I missed most of the fight but that final shot sure didn't seem like much. Figured there had to be something prior like a broken rib or something.

    2. ZRod

      ZRod

      ED, it doesn't look like much on the slow mo replays, but it was about as loud a connecting shot as you will hear on tv. 

    3. The Dude

      In real time, in person, it was absolutely devastating. 

  12. That was badass, Bud.  #Undisputed

  13. Anyone going to the fights tomorrow?

     

  14. I did not account for the eclipse traffic when I purchased tickets for the Crawford fight.

      Pretty common mistake imo

  15. My credit score dropped 19 points because I put $140 on one of my credit cards. The credit limit is $1,000. Is that normal?

      Mine dropped about that much everytime I opened a new credit card.

      My suggestion, do yourself a favor and raise your limit as much as possible. Percentage of revolving credit used affects your score.

      I've never seen a double digit drop before, but maybe I just wasn't paying very close attention. I wouldn't have batted an eye if it was a single digit drop.

  16. Spent the last few days watching every Vasyl Lomachenko fight. He's going to be in the greatest boxer of all time conversation when it's all said and done. Unbelievable athlete

      I realize it probably seems that way. Watch him tomorrow night on ESPN and you be the judge.

       

      He's already considered by many to be the greatest amateur of all time. Amateur record of 396-1 with 2 Olympic gold medals.

       

      Won a world title in his 3rd pro fight and a second world title in his 7th pro fight.

      Lomachenko rukes. Canelo v GGG might rule more.

      If it's any consolation, I'm convinced Vikings is as good as GoT, it's just not as involved or wide ranging. More of a focused storyline but very, very good.

      Funny thing is, I saw this quote and Floki came to mind immediately. Had to Google it to see what it was and was surprised it was in fact him.

      Floki is such a fantastic character. Great actor.

      Had 3 of the good beer brats though. Simmered them in beer 'n' onions for about 45 mins then threw 'em on the grill.

      The name of our bar... Puzzles. People will be, like, "Why is it called Puzzles?". That's the puzzle!

  22. I would compare Wonder Woman to the Captain America movies, which I like quite a bit. I still think Logan is easily the best comic book movie of the year.

      I've had a huge Gadot crush since her first appearance in Fast & Furious. I really enjoyed the movie but didn't love the ending and final fight with Ares.

      Having not seen it yet, I always thought the most apt comparison for WW was "Thor meets Cap. America: The First Avenger".
