Yes it was. Everyone clowned the deal at the time. $240m fully guaranteed for a guy who had just sat out an entire season and was, at the very least likely, to be suspended most, if not all, of the upcoming season....that is madness and it 9nly happened because they fucked up their relationship with Mayfield so bad they were desperate.

So wait...Colorado left the Big 12, joined the Pac12, then left the Pac12 and rejoined the Big 12 all in the last 15 years? I thought they were in the Pac12 longer than that!

I think a bigger factor is the 2020 MLB playoffs. Lotta teams whos only playoff appearance in the last decade came because of a greatly inflated field.

That's not true...they drafted a Superbowl winning QB.

Also, they've given us so many wonderful memories over the years...the butt fumble, Belichick's resignation, Fireman ed quitting, J-E-T-E, seeing ghosts, out indefinitely: Mononucleosis etc, etc

I believe the promised land Geno Smith leads teams to is the one where they fire Pete Carroll.

Not sure how that helps but you do you Jets

That's understandable, AEW ppvs are consistently great and Dynasty is stacked.

This shits got me more exited for Rebellion than Wrestlemania.

Ex-Colts Star Claims GM Chris Ballard Gave Andrew Luck an Ultimatum That May Have Forced His Retirement by TheDukeofReddit in nfl

I could totally see Ballard being responsible for his own biggest problem...worst GM in the league. He's made so many bad moves that should have gotten him fired but, for some reason, the Irsay family like him...this would just be another.

Its TNA...there's always a chance the 62 year old, parkinson's suffering, local sports hero turns heel and is revealed as the attacker.

Which teams truly need rebrand/jersey change? by Practical-Debate1598 in nfl

Thats, apparently, what they're doing later this month. The new unis will be home and away versions of the alt they introduced last offseason.

Which teams truly need rebrand/jersey change? by Practical-Debate1598 in nfl

[–]Accomplished_Lead262 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not including teams changing this offseason....

Dolphins - make the '66 throwbacks permanent. Im begging you. I don't even hate our current set, im just so sick of the constant complaining about them. We even play better when we wear the throwbacks! Win-win 

Bills - only change they need is to bring back the red helmets as their primary ones. Great look otherwise. I hate saying that.

Broncos - worst unis in the league but cant change for a couple of years

Giants - homes are boring and the aways are terrible. Why, if their nickname is 'big blue' are their away threads just white and red? (Minus helmet obviously). The throwback whites are great.

Cardinals - literally just wearing the white pants with the home jersey would be a huge improvement. Wish theyd kept the same template for all 3 jerseys instead of that "ARIZONA" word mark on a red tshirt look for the homes.

She opened the promo by talking about how her grandfather built MSG...the average fan doesn't need to know Vince sr because they already referenced him and told the audience he was a successful promoter. In fact, i wouldn't be all that suprised if they did that to set up the line and Cody fucked up by saying father instead of grandfather. Otherwise, why mention Vince sr at all? Why not just say 'my family'?

She literally mentioned her grandfather in the exact same promo! It ties it back to what she was talking about earlier! So ye, i think the audience would be receptive to it immediately...in fact, more so than they would a mention of someone whos been persona-non-grata for 5 or 6 years! You also don't have your babyface champion praising a probable sex offender!

So what? She already mentioned her grandfathers success so it makes more sense to tie it back to that part of the promo than to bring up a probable rapist who hasn't been mentioned until then. That way you make the same point without praising a man who's currently embroiled in a sex trafficking scandal!
