  1. I always thought he was mostly bull. Talented as hell but that ego was offensive pretty much. Then a few years ago I heard some Braves people talking about him from the baseball days and they had great things to say about him as a teammate and person and he was being all humble and religious and seemed cool. But now, he is like ultimate over the top sports dad, it is too much like the little league version with dad as the coach (which, some men can do that and not come off like it's all about their kid, but it seems to me that does not describe Deon).
  2. That's great. What other years are scoring badly? Seeing any other across the board 'leaders'?
  3. It's okay to discuss it now, not like it will progress to signing in a week or two from here. As far as his price on an expiring contract, having the inside track to a potent WR, if you think you are about to do something, that is a feature. It is an edge for your team, if you decide he fits (and also depending on the other UFA WRs which I haven't looked up). But it adds an incentive in the right market. We can also bluff that we are getting a comp pick either way so why would we sell close to that... You don't HAVE to trade him, but you can give people the opportunity to get some bidding fever going. As far as drafting we need to remember both our the top offensive coaches came up working with receivers. I think they probably have a good eye for evaluation relative to the fit they want. I don't think we need to tie our past WR flubs to these guys.
  4. If you are saying that as annual pay, I don't think so, but you are right that he is valuable and good.
  5. You guys are missing the big picture looking at your little dots. It's comical that you ridicule others for seeing what you are unable to process.
  6. Having your worst pick ever will pull down a grade.
  7. Yeah. Wallace is getting beat his ass beat right now and will be learning how not to get his ass beat for a while. It's okay as long as he learns and he will.
  8. Are you saying it is easier to fix Bryce Young than to find a better option? I think that is your point so I'll respond to that. Better is really easy; take one of the UFDAs like Bagent of the other one the beat us last year... I forget who it was. Doesn't matter. The point is that unheralded nondescript guys are better for the NFL than Young. or the right option meaning the best, It was pretty easy last year as long as you didn't forget it is the NFL we are talking about not college. Pick the guy that looks like he could be what we have seen succeed in the league before. And we had three guesses besides Bryce. They fuged up a slam dunk. As fas as fixing him, first I don't think you are really acknowledging his issues. They are so deeply fundamental to his play that he has to to be totally rebuilt. But you have the restriction that you can't improve any of his physical shortcomings, that's a factory issue. So taking him as he is, and turning that into an NFL capable player that can read defenses and beat them with his arm, may as well hope to bring peace to the Middle East.
  9. Me too. He has been horrible to watch play. I mean from the 1st game where he threw those two picks. Funny thing is, when that game happened I was bewildered, not sure at all what I was watching. But it was so bad. I remember trying to figure out what I had seen and trying to make sense of it. After watching him try to play for a season, I went back to check a couple of things and it didn't seem that bad. We have been conditioned to a new low bar for not that bad.
  10. Irma even got us up here. I think it was the first one in all my years here that put storm surge over here on the SC coast and was a gulf storm. I think we had 4-5 feet of surge on top of high tide it was crazy.
  11. That Miami Tennessee game is horrible. Not as horrible as we were before Dalton but not good.
  12. So, we are a farm team now. they take Young also, maybe we can talk.
  13. Sure. You have to know when to leave. After a point it’s too late to leave. Down here I have learned to understand how to wait to the last minute and which way to head. Lots of people left here before Hugo to go inland and get a room if you can find one, only to get whacked with high winds and tornados and stuff. I have it down… wait until I know where it is really going, and give the thousands and thousands of people time to get out and the roads to be clear of that standstill traffic. You have to know. I knew people that stayed in Garden City during Hugo they swore they would never be that stupid again lol A direct hit over Cat 1 or you are in the NE quadrant, you don’t want to be there.
  14. I’m gonna say that two weeks ago this was a lock. Maybe his info is not fresh.
  15. Thanks. I guess I have some reading to do I don’t have any local knowledge about previous water events. PS I think in the future the people who lived and paid little mind, don’t do that again. For years and years I have had to prepare for hurricanes that were less than predicted mostly because they missed us. You can’t afford to ignore the threat.
  16. You probably already saw the 'practice window' thread. No Brooks this week.
  17. So, you guys up that way... What were you expecting? Were people being warned? With the deaths, it sounds like a hurricane party and no one talkng it seriously, but I was not there to know so am curious.
  18. Lord Icege, get real. I hate to have to so strenuously object to your claims but no. That's comical, and I hope you don't really believe that.
  19. Yes sir. Broken, can I call it a factory second or something? A mini Cooper trying to do offroad. He is just a bad design with that tippy toe and the horrible footwork and the jumping and the whole. Man it's been ugg lee all the way. Anyway, peace.
