@Chutebox: Josh Rosen isn't eligible until the 2018 draft. Next year it looks like Deshaun Watson (Clemson) and Deshone Kizer (Notre Dame) will be to the top QB prospects. Of course, if you guys were willing to pony up a first rounder for Jimmy G that could also be a possibility.

Jimmy G looked pretty decent, but we juts lost Malcolm Mitchell for what will likely be the first half of the season by the looks of it, which is unfortunate because all reports coming out about him so far had been very positive. I also got a good laugh from this

Fucking Kevin Durant. I couldn't have cared less if he went back to the Thunder or even if he picked the Lakers. But the fucking Warriors? That's a bitch, title-chaser move. Why even watch the season anymore? Any illusion of real drama is gone.

As absurd as these deals seem the cap is going up another 20% or so next year. Last year's questionable deals like Reggie Jackson for 5-year/$80M and Khris Middleton for 5-year/$70M are already looking like relative bargains, wouldn't be shocked if we aren't saying the same about some of these deals next year.

@Chutebox: I don't think they're losing because of the refs

And they've clinched it. I'm not sure that there could ever be an equivalent to what Leicester has done this season in American sports, the only thing I think I could put similar odds on for this upcoming season would be the Browns not just winning the Super Bowl (500-to-1 odds), but also going 19-0 in the process. I only wish I hadn't missed the excitement, as I started doing HW at halftime presuming it was over and didn't turn back around till right after it was made 2-2.

@Chutebox: Nah, the better Brady performs the more he embarrasses Goodell. He could have gone out last year, saw a down-tick in production, and had 31 fanbases and Goodell pointing at him as if it somehow proved he benefited from allegedly deflated footballs, but he didn't. He had a career season at the age of 38, came in second in MVP voting, made the AFC Championship, and shut the story down after a few weeks. Legally I understand the reasoning, but I do hope Brady continues to pursue this, to the full court of appeals and to the Supreme Court if that's what it takes. The only reason Goodell continued to pursue this case is retain his complete player punishment, the court unfortunately ruled today that he had it. Much as I'd like to see the process changed I"m not sure that it will be. This decision egally obviously gives Goodell the power to give whatever the hell he he wants, the NFLPA isn't going to trade money for something that effects 1% of players every year, and the owners prefer to let Goodell be the face of discipline as forcing it into a committee might cause them to look bad.

I think it's fine at 7 games. This year might very well be a dud, but last year we had a great Spurs/Clippers series and the year before that maybe the greatest first round of all-time (5 of 8 games going went to 7 games).

You don't pay a QB $7.5M a year and plan to only use him as a backup.

I'll probably be seeing it on Saturday anyway, but honestly this is worse than I expected (55-65% range) which is concerning. The fact that Snyder is directing doesn't seem to be helping anything and makes me very concerned about the two-part Justice League is scheduled to direct. Making matters worse, according to some reviews I've seen is the fact the first trailer basically laid out the plot of the film, and there are no 'tricks up the sleeve'.
