Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 After all this draft coverage, I loathe ESPN even more. Effing Herm Edwards giving out grades of team's drafts. Really? He of the 3-22 record in his last 25 games. He of the famous speech about why we play the game, after a loss. His comments on Tanneyhill, saying the Fins are crazy to draft him 8th and then say they are going to groom him for a year or two. Ummm, fckhead, he only played 19 games in college as a qb. He was a receiver before that. Maybe he needs some seasoning. Pretty sure Garrard and Moore can babysit the team for a year for this kid to get up to speed. I mean, its been 29 years since they took a qb in the 1st round, what's another year? I hate all of ESPNNot even gonna mention Aaron Boone and Doug Glanville playing the pyramid on Baseball Tonight. Wtf? HIGHLIGHTS, that's all I went. Maybe a Chris Connely piece Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I have watched 7 years of PTI and now that DLHQ is on, I don't even watch that anymore. I do enjoy Mike and Tony but even they are both homers and won't crush someone they consider a friend. Plus, they still do "eye tests" or sniff tests. Damn you Lebatard, you've ruined me!!!

YonYonson 156 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 yeah lebatard has ruined me too. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Tony's radio show is way, way better than PTI. I probably like his radio show minute to minute more than lebatard, because Tony bare mentions local sports at all, and does more general topic stuff, and takes zero phone calls from listeners. I would say lebatard has higher highs, but Tony's show has a better average. Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Being from south Florida and a dolphins, heat and marlins fan, it helps the show for me. I never tried Tony's show but I barely squeeze in 2 Lebatard podcasts a week Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 his radio show is 2 hours long, so it's like only 80 minutes a day on podcast compared to the 2 1/2 hours of lebatard. Also, don't get his official podcast feed, it's on a one day delay. Get unofficial " this podcast stinks" which comes out that day, usually within a half hour of the show finishing.

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Is it just me or do you love the clause in Revis' contract that states if he holds out again, 3 years gets added on to the contract? It's brilliant. Go ahead, hold out, we'll never negotiate and you're tied up for 5 years. Good luck mofo. And I'm usually pro player. Link to post Share on other sites

It's brilliant. Go ahead, hold out, we'll never negotiate and you're tied up for 5 years. Good luck mofo. And I'm usually pro player.Wait, I don't really understand that. 3 years at what amount? And what if he gets injured and he becomes kind of sucky? Can he just hold out to get himself an extension? I guess since the NFL doesn't have guaranteed contracts the Jets could just cut him at that point. That is a really interesting clause.Along those lines, the new Penn State coach had a clause in his contract that stated he gets a year extension added for every year of probation they are penalized. So he just got himself a four year extension. He has a nine year contract without having ever been a head coach. Link to post Share on other sites

DJ Vu 176 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Is there any precedent to signing a free agent QB for big money and then naming your 3rd round rookie QB the starter? I can't figure out if it's really smart or really stupid. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 smart coaching, dumb GM-ing. Link to post Share on other sites
DJ Vu 176 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I'm not so sure. They obviously needed a QB, so they paid for one that they thought was good. Then they used a non-first round pick to grab some more QB potential. If Wilson was named the starter because he was just that good, I feel like the GM deserves some credit for that and for not locking yourself into someone simply because you paid him a lot of money. Somewhat related, on Grantland, this was great:The Buffalo Bills acquired quarterback Tarvaris Jackson in a trade with the Seahawks, and subsequently cut Vince Young from the roster. And finally, after years of coming excruciatingly close, the Bills have now completed a transaction that matches the city of Buffalo in pure sadness. "This is our 'closing the public libraries' moment," declared triumphant owner Ralph Wilson. Link to post Share on other sites
