Just saw this and I thought it was pretty funny. Looks like Jones had a few cups from the "green" carafe. Does he see ghosts too when reading defenses like Zach Wilson?

Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024). Pretty balanced between nostalgia and the new storyline. It was quite enjoyable, particularly since I saw it in the theatre with my son, but the originals are still the best.

Except for the first, the next one is always the one I want most.

I watched a little before the Elite Eight games on Easter Sunday. It was okay, but lacking because there are no names, promotion, connection to fanbases, or emotion. For as popular as the NFL is, one cannot simply yell, "football!!" and expect people to come running. The NFL is too big, offers...

Why does Vegas put out O/U win totals five months before training camp, and before the Draft or 2nd wave of Free Agency, post Draft? Should have locked in the unders for Buffalo and Miami, but I'd of course give it all back on the over for Washington, who even without a QB have a decent shot at...

It's a very nice minor league park and a great value compared to going to Fenway, Yankee Stadium III, or Citifield. Plus all three of the area franchises have affiliates in the Eastern League, so it's a good place to stay current with one's favorite teams' prospects. The stands are filled with...

I don't start many threads, but there didn't appear to be a Red Sox thread for the current season. There is now. They finished last year at 78-84, despite being 57-51 and only 2.5 games out of the wild card at the trade deadline. To me, the issue with 2023 actually started in 2019, when they...

Not touching that one (Though I might have just then).

That's a AAA baseball model, of sorts and it will collapse under it's own weight (particularly at the college level), once the most important factor is considered: Money. No one cares if the WooSox win the International League (just like no one cares if the Yard goats win the Eastern League)...

It was a long time ago (35 years or so. Maybe longer), but I remember watching a random game on ESPN between Pitt and UNC. Three things I remember about that game were 1) I watched it at my grandmother's house, just outside of Albany NY, 2) Pitt (who was nowhere near as good, particularly in...

The lead may have been too large to overcome, but it wasn't yet garbage time.

Watching the game be played in Barclays Arena was weird, bordering on uncomfortably dark. Darker than MSG, where stage lighting is also utilized, but MSG seems brighter. I wonder if the darkness affected depth perception, similar to past Final Fours since they started playing in Football...

I guess it was a good thing SDSU didn't play Auburn then.

Sure, UConn by 17, but they were up by 30 and gave up 14 points with the starters on the court.

Ever see the movie, The Lateshift, about how Jay Leno succeeded Johnny Carson and David Letterman wound up at CBS? "They aren't offering you The Johnny Carson Tonight Show. That's gone forever. They're offering you damaged goods. The Jay Leno Show. And they're not even offering it to you now...

About a decade ago, the ACC schools were complicit in destroyed a perfectly viable "Power 6" football conference, locked each member institution in for roughly $30 million/year, for 20 years, locked everyone else out for nothing, with no escalator clause, and now they are crying? Is that about...

At 64-49, UConn in the second half, UConn had two possessions in a row that resembled the '86 Celtics. Just tremendous passing, cutting, and unselfishness.

Jets fans to Rodgers

Great signing for the Patriots. Gibson was a WR at Memphis and became an every down back in Washington, before taking a backseat/3D roll to Brian Robinson. He'll probably start off as a 3rd down back in NE as well, but will be able to spell Stevenson and slide seamlessly into a starting roll in...

As someone who also follows the Commanders, talking heads and insiders in the DMV might be ebbing back towards Maye at #2. Logan Paulsen, former TE in SEA, ATL, WASH, & SF, and early Daniels advocate, is even leaning that way after the Combine. He mentioned his frame, ability to see over NFL...

Not many surprises. Deonte Harty is not an All-pro because of his production at Wide Receiver. He had 21 targets last year over 16 games and 940 yards over 5 years. It was probably among their easier decisions to try and find another punt returner and save $4 million. On the other hand, he went...

I love cooking, grilling, and smoking. I find it mostly relaxing and cathartic, but I don't know how much I would like doing it for hours on end, everyday, for other people of varying standards ranging into the impossible.

14 is to many teams. Notre Dame is given too much deference "G5," too little So much money breeds corruption and the only reason for a committee is to deflect blame from any one individual, yet backslap and take credit when it goes smooth. The old bowl system would work better at this point...

I had an advertising client in the 2000s in Connecticut who offered in-house daycare. I'm not sure if it was run by a 3rd party, but it was in the building. I'm thinking of Apollo 13. The Patriots are facing about 1,000 issues preventing them from making the playoffs, let alone a deep run. They...

These means nothing. Washington is no surprise at 32. They have the worst stadium in the NFL, but changed ownership mere weeks before the surveys and have since acquired a new coaching staff. Notable that the 2x defending Super Bowl Champion Chiefs came in at 31. Is the daycare only for game...

The jump in salary cap looks like it took front office franchise personnel by surprise. Most in the know were expecting in the $240s M. It provides significant relief for New Orleans, Miami, Buffalo, and Denver, among others. The Bills are still 43M over the cap, followed by the Saints and...

The Patriots are in good position because they are $70 million under the projected cap, and high draft picks. That the Bills and Dolphins are projected to be $50M over the cap is merely an interesting development.

The final Cap number will be made public next week, and while it could be $250 Million, NFL.com projected $240M back in December and Pro Football Talk is projecting $243 Million, according to NBCSports just yesterday. So the figures projected by OTC, PFT, and the NFL itself is 100% in the ballpark.

The 2024 Cap is indeed projected to go up about $25 mil next year, but that does not wipe out half of either the Bills' or the Dolphins' deficit. Both Spotrac and Overthecap have them both around $51 million over next year's projected cap. It's not a matter of hoping other teams get worse based...

I don't know what to expect from Rodgers. He's 40 years old and coming off a significant leg injury. Warming tosses on the sidelines is worlds different than evading Nick Bosa coming off the edge.

From what I've read, Brady took diet to an extreme, but he was also still a world class athlete at 45 years old (as you say: "Results"). There is no reason for John Q. Football Fan to take dietary restriction that far unless there is some sort of a food sensitivity. The overall holistic approach...

Straight ahead speed is a component, but I wouldn't necessarily consider it THE lead indication of athleticism. I don't think you should feel embarrassed about by muscle pliability, hydration, sleep, diet, or anything else that may allow a world class athlete to perform at such a high level...

Reid has two years left on his contract and turns 68 soon after it is set to expire. He also had to address and fend off rumors of retirement earlier in the week, so to say he isn't retiring anytime soon is totally dependent on one's definition of "soon." Mahomes' athleticism doesn't contribute...

Yeah, maybe I jumped the gun slightly... Most of his negatives are measureables (Ht, Wt, hand size). His technique is not flawless by any means, but effort and heart can rarely be measured. He'll have an opportunity to show what he can offer on Pro Day. Anything can happen in the 7th round and...
