  1. He'll get there eventually, although maybe not next year since he'll look worse compared to Brees (pretty much guaranteed to get in) and Rivers (pretty much guaranteed to not). We also saw the other limit of playoff power since Vinateri didn't get in. Still think he'll make it one day.

    I mean, he certainly did better than Judge in the playoffs....
  3. Why would it feel like the real 60s when that was never the goal? The official synopsis explicitly states it's "Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world," It's like those old world's fairs showcasing a city of the future.
  4. Come on, don't try to let something stupid like "the facts" interrupt our narrative about how the league is rigged.

    Yes, the organization indulged him with the Bronny signing, but last year they thought they had a zero percent chance of getting someone like Luka. If Lebron was a Laker lifer like Kobe or Magic then it would be different, but he's a hired gun. The organization shouldn't spit in his face, but they don't have to bow to his every wish anymore now that his replacement is theirs.

    It's because Dallas thinks he's going to become Zion 2.0 - salary is immaterial if you think he's going to stay a top 5 player at worst. That still doesn't explain why they didn't extract a few more picks or pick swaps from the deal.

    It would be like trading Juan Soto for Mike Trout.

    Do the Mavs have a time machine and know Luka's going to suffer a catastrophic injury in a couple of years? Even knowing that, why did they get so little in return? It's not even the trade deadline, get some bidding wars started! Of course, this is a godsend for people who think the league is rigged in favor of the Lakers.
  9. Or if the player is some marginal second stringer, then it's all about having no tolerance for despicable behavior. A star? Hey now, innocent until proven guilty, everyone deserves a second chance, who hasn't made mistakes, he's really sorry and is going to work hard at improving as a person, etc.
  10. I think she'll end up having some involvement, but there's going to be a catch. The real life optics of making her some amoral scumbag wouldn't work (the successful black woman married the boss's son and is also evil?). There will be bumps along the way, but unless there's an abrupt cancellation the series will eventually end with Matty and Olympia being on good terms.
  11. Since Bill is hip to the youths of today and living it up, maybe he was just trolling? He has to realize certain fans who are, shall we say, less than fond of Mr. Brady would have a conniption fit even though he has zero ability to enact such a change.
  12. Looks like another NFL player is being accused of sexual misconduct by massage therapists
  13. This happened with the TNG era shows too. When TNG first came out TOS fans called it a pale, crappy shadow of the original. You replaced Jim Kirk with this bald dude who is supposed to be French but acts and sounds like a Brit? God, this show is boring - where's the action? Then when DS9 came out they were criticized for not being "real" Trek - the idea of Section 31, a Trek series focusing on an extended war, etc. would have had Roddenberry rolling in his grave. Voyager was a dull TNG retread, etc.

    Especially when you're in your mid 30s and not exactly Dwyane Wade 2.0 when it comes to your popularity in Miami.
  15. Brady beat Mahomes in the Super Bowl and was MVP of the game. He's always going to have that over him.
