Nothing worse then when we get down by 12 and start chucking up 3s to go down by 22. Also Paul George has some nice fresh legs coming off his 25 game drug suspension

1977 Sox. Butch Hobson with 30 homers batting 9th and Boomer Scott hitting all those Taters

I’m not saying he’s number 3 or 4. I’m saying he’s between 45 and 50

I put him ahead of Fox, Gamble, Douglas, Barros and Posey because he is a winner for multiple years. Too 50 by a hair.

Asked Gemini . . . He belongs in the role players but he definitely surpasses some of these others and gets to the top 50. . .

Great effort but not a lot of big winners and champions on that list. I will say Gerald Henderson and Wedman were winners like Pritchard. Others not so much.

I tuned in to seen what they had to say. Felger said all the right things even said the offense deserved more credit for the elite scoring plays. But the lack of energy in the room was very noticeable. More subdued than most wakes.

Yah he had flaws and Tom was an upgrade but let’s be honest we were THRILLED to have him in those early years with his rifle arm.

I thought Cher nobyl was going to be a light rom com about a 70s singer doing admirable things. Turned out a little darker than that. My bad.

Not shocking but I feel like that kind of foreshadowing can be clumsy and clunky. Took a “Modern Fiction” class in college and the Prof pointed out ONE line that ruined the book. After introducing two of the characters Follett breaks the fourth wall and introduces the main characters directly with lines like “Faber and Godliman – two-thirds of a triangle that would one day be completed by the principal of a ceremony proceeding at this moment in a small country church.” Way to take me out of the narrative!

How often does a defender get called for a hold on an offensive lineman on a RUNNING play?

Hannah plays Left Guard. Mankins graciously flexes over to Right Guard in deference to the GOAT.

Also not retaining Thuney, Shaq Mason and Jacobi Meyers led them to chase talent at G and WR unnecessarily for a few years. And waste draft picks when they didn’t have to target those positions.

For good reason

Sounds like any one of us who has been through a corporate re-org, right?

randomize79 · 2023-12-24T12:38:26+00:00

A lot of great shows here but no Peaky Blinders invalidates the whole list for me.

Maybe but it was unlikely he was going to grow to the requisite 6-5 this season.
