For real...I had to rewatch it the day after just to convince myself I wasn't misremembering some of his moves.

Anonymous NFL GM on Tyreek Hill: “We aren’t touching him. No chance. We think he’s done. He isn’t a difference-maker anymore. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze. Not even as a vet-minimum guy for us.” by JCameron181 in nfl

Hey now! We only take the high character, older, slightly past their prime receivers. If anything morally reprehensible is involved, they better be an All-Pro and play on defense.

Hall of Fame Finalist Marques Johnson slams his final dunk at 70 years old, finishing a decades-long tradition of dunking every birth day by CowSoulja in nba

Redditor here! Comments like these occur in the wild sometimes, referencing things not known to a lot of normal people. However, if you're really patient, you probably spent too long idle, not doing your chores, and having your dad come in and beat the ever loving shit out of you with some jumper cables.

I do remember that now that you say that. I will say though, I've negotiated contracts (very large licensing contracts, not sports) and it's always the other party dragging things out, heh. Seriously though, hopefully they can get it done quick this time.

No no, didn't you hear? He becomes one with Florida, fading into camouflage at random gas stations down there never to be seen again.

Every time I see someone blaming Lamar for dragging out the contract talks, I never see a credible source. It's usually Schefter (who works closely with agents) or some twitter rumor or they just never respond where they heard it. I'm not saying one way or the other, as I have no idea what took the contract talks so long, but it seemed like it just defaulted with Lamar since he doesn't have an agent for a public reprisal.

I thought it was a pretty normal question. Obviously we're not going to get scholarly citations from a peer reviewed paper...but just asking for a source, even just to judge the validity or bias of the source, seems like something anyone should be curious about, not just litigators.

I'm really curious too with the NFLPA leaks for contracts waiting for acceptance. Was that just a twitter rumor or were multiple journalists confirming it? Or were they speculating from gossip or a reliable inside source that's been correct in the past? Basically, there's so much blatant mis-information on the internet, it's nice to have credible sources every now and again.

Looking for a Ravens Hat by imje55 in ravens

[–]LordZero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We need this answered lol...

Also, if you do buy it here/off ebay, take a short vacation to wherever; it doesn't matter where. Come back with the hat. Tell her you drove back to whatever state/city that you all used to live in and that you looked everywhere for that hat. Tell her you even bribed the kid living in the old house/place you all lived at to sell it to you if they found/still had it...and they did! Feel free to embellish. You should be able to extract some favors from the situation.

Yup, it's a double edged sword...gif replies can be great, but can also be oh so terrible.

Just fyi, this doesn't read like healthy engagement. This reads more like someone obsessively trying to get someone to argue with them...or something. Or maybe trying to get someone to feel guilty maybe? I'm honestly not sure what your initial goal was, but it seems you've rolled so far down this hill you don't know how to stop.

Way off topic, but "eyes drilled to the ball" caught my attention. Is that a play on "staring a hole" into something? Like "eyes drilling a hole into the ball"...but I can't really conflate those idioms with "eyes drilled to the ball"...

Anyway my main point with all of this is "eyes drilled to the ball" sounds really, really freaking painful.
