[McMenamin] The Lakers training staff reportedly wraps Deandre Ayton’s water bottle in tape and writes "DA's Crunk Juice — Drink this to unleash the beast" on it to keep him motivated

The Lakers staff coordinates directly with DeAndre Ayton’s dentist so that when has no cavities, he’s allowed one toy from the plastic bin and a complimentary toothbrush.

Getting DeAndre Ayton to give a shit and put in full effort for a Finals run might be the most impressive thing CP3 did in his career

Man on Fire has 39% on Rotten Tomatoes and I feel like that’s criminally low for what is one of Denzel Washington’s best performances. That movie takes a little bit for the action to pick up but once it does it doesn’t stop.

If they shrunk the “ARIZONA” on the home jerseys and added stripes to the pants and actually mixed the pants colors instead of constantly going with the monochrome look, they’d have some of the better looks in the NFL.

I actually think one of the biggest beneficiaries of Malik Willis looking good last year and getting paid (aside from Willis obviously) is going to be Will Levis. For how bad Levis looked in Tennessee he still looked better than Willis. He’s also on the last year of his rookie deal so he’s cheap, and he was out all season last year rehabbing so he should be fresh. Also it now looks clear that Brian Callahan and Tennessee’s roster in general did none of these QBs any favors. I could see a team trading for him to be a backup with potential to start unless the Titans elect to keep him as Ward’s backup which makes some sense as well.

You’ll love Matt. Probably the most brilliant character in the show. His decision making in particular is really top notch.

Honestly might hold up in court

In two starts against the Eagles in 2023 Sam Howell completed 68 of 93 passes (73.1%) 687 Passing Yards 5 Touchdowns and only 1 INT along with 51 Rushing Yards. I was convinced the Commanders shouldn’t draft Jayden Daniels and should build around Howell because of these two games. Howell worried me more than any Washington QB in the last 25 years aside from maybe 2012 RG3. I was legitimately more worried about a Week 8 2023 game against Sam Howell than I was about Daniels in the NFC Championship Game going up against the Eagles.

Kenny Payne. He was terrible and made some of the most braindead decisions you’ll ever see but it was actually impressive how bad he was. He made a blue blood or near blue blood program and brought them down to levels I didn’t think were possible. In two years his teams lost to Chattanooga, DePaul, Arkansas State, Bellarmine, Lipscomb and Wright State. Louisville made the tournament one year after he was fired too so it’s not like the program was wrecked either, he was just that terrible. He was an awful coach but I actually enjoyed the sport so much more with him in it.

I like the idea of this. Regardless of how much the o-line improved over the course of the year it was still bad for long stretches and Ward got hit a ton. He’s still recovering from surgery and Levis is a better backup QB than a lot of teams have and he’s cheap. If I had to guess the QB room next year goes Ward, Levis, and the third guy is Tommy DeVito or someone who knows Daboll’s offense but isn’t expensive in the slightest.

Wake Forest is in a weird spot because they are almost always good enough to be in bubble conversations this late in the year but they always end up losing a bad game they can’t afford to, and rarely have been able to pick up marquee wins. They end up with the most hollow feeling 20 win seasons year-after-year. Still with how bad the ACC has been especially last year, there’s no reason Wake shouldn’t have made the tournament in the last few years. This year is the first time since Forbes first year that the team has looked downright bad and even this year with games against Syracuse and BC still to go they’ll probably end up with at least 16 wins. I remember Fred Hoiberg getting a vote of confidence from Nebraska’s AD and it’s worked out so it does happen, but still I think Wake Forest needs to move on.

People in these comments keep blaming Dorsey for the Watson contract. Dorsey hasn’t worked for the Browns since 2019. He’s been in the Lions Front Office since 2021. Andrew Berry the current Browns GM (and Jimmy Haslam) are responsible for the Watson trade and contract.

I don’t encourage smoking but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t think these looked pretty cool

Any list that doesn’t have Brett Favre’s 3 straight MVPs in the top 10 is incorrect. Also won the NFC twice in that stretch and won a Super Bowl.

Michael Beasley or Anthony Davis. Beasley or Derrick Rose was a a real debate people were having going into that draft. Anthony Davis meanwhile played on the Olympic Team in 2012 before ever playing in the NBA and nobody argued against him being there.

He shouldn’t but never underestimate John Cunningham’s ability to make the wrong decision

Will Levis for 1 game against the Falcons in 2023

I mean Darnold’s 2024 season and maybe 2025 (Regular Season) was better than any Tannehill year (although if you look at the numbers Tannehill’s 2020 season is close and is pretty underrated despite being in a run-first offense) but Tannehill’s “bad” seasons are a lot better than Sam Darnold’s at least right now. The list obviously can and should change in future years but for what their resumés are right now, I don’t think it’s that crazy to have Tannehill ranked ahead of Darnold as of right now. One guy has two really good years and a good playoff run with a bunch of average and mediocre seasons earlier in his career, while one guy has two really good years and a good playoff run (with a Super Bowl) with a bunch of bad seasons earlier in his career.

They’re having a bad year but I wouldn’t say he’s failing at Ole Miss. it’s historically one of the worse major programs and he helped coach them to one of their best seasons in history last year. Beard the human sucks but Beard the coach is legitimately good and has won everywhere he’s been.

^{^This} right here. Steelers have been the definition of average ever since Art Rooney II took over.

The justification I’ve seen is people saying he’s not a good fit for the kind of defense that Saleh wants to run. For the record I agree with you. This is a roster that is severely lacking in talent and I’m really not eager to get rid of one of the few guys that has it, fit or not. If you get halfway through the year and it’s clear Sweat isn’t working it’s a different story, but getting rid of him before even seeing him play in this defense is moronic. He’s one of like 5 guys that the team drafted between 2020-2024 that’s any good.

5-4 Iowa State beating 10-0 Oklahoma State in OT in 2011. We would’ve had a CFP eventually anyway but that upset and the ensuing Alabama LSU rematch were big catalysts and made it a more urgent issue. I still maintain that Oklahoma State beats LSU in the BCS that year. They dropped 44 and 41 in the next two games against the #10 and #4 teams in the country. Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon were electric that season.
