30 for 30 stayed true to its form and put out another great show. Pretty much the only thing Espn has going for them these days.

I never knew the full story about the Duke lacrosse team - just that it was BS. But holy poo I can't believe what really happened. I feel terrible for those kids and for the lady too. I'm stil pissed after watching it.

Watching it now but saw nothing but amazing things on Twitter about it (except from a couple people like Nolan Smith).  

Thinking back, it seems like 99% of people immediately jumped to conclusions, started making jokes, whatever...but as always, let the legal process play out. A shitty situation all around that was made worse by people doing nothing but protesting to protest, or by others sticking up for the players without knowing a thing. If nothing else, a case like this hopefully teaches people to stay moderate on an issue until the facts come out. Or at the very least, just shut up until facts are known. 

 

Oh, and Nifong? Get fuged.

Really didn't need to watch. This happened just a few years after the OJ trial. Nifong was just try to make a name for himself and cash in. That said...I can't blame for wanting to believe it, but you have to stay objective, especially when you work for the public. lol Bad investigators are bad

    • First on T-Mac, I 100% expect him to be the top WR from this class, however I think expecting him to put up 1k+ as a rookie isn't necessarily fair, especially since you're putting it in perspective of how many other rookie WRs have done that in recent years. And Thielen is the reason for that. Not many (if any) of those 1k+ rookies had someone like Thielen there when they were drafted, and no matter how good T-Mac is this year, Bryce is still going to lean on his existing chemistry with Thielen unless he's drastically lost a step this offseason and just can't get open like he's been able to in his career. As I pointed out in another thread the other day, looking at MHJ last year is the way to look at T-Mac's season if Thielen plays a full and healthy season.  MHJ had McBride "steal" 110+ catches and 1,100+ yards in what was a pass happy offense (Kyler was 9th in the league in attempts), it's going to be hard for any rookie to put up more than the 800ish yards he had last year in that scenario.  Especially if we follow a similar game plan to last year and be a run heavy team. In terms of XL, you're completely right, jumping up to get a project 2/3 isn't smart, and if we knew we needed a future slot from that pick, yes, Ladd would have been a much better pick. But at this point, those are all sunk costs, even taking T-Mac at 8 is now considered a sunk cost. Forgetting the past or who we maybe should have taken last year now knowing future roles, I still think T-Mac, XL, Coker can be one of the Top 1-3 WR rooms in the NFL in a few years, I honestly think they really do have that potential in them.
