  1. So some team is going to draft him in the top 10 when he really needs to spend another year in college.
  2. Seems like the Packers have had enough.
  3. Matthew Stafford was up to 61% completion in his senior season and he struggled at times early in his career in accuracy and even in his Super Bowl season he still lead the league in interceptions. Richardson is at 53% completion. That's almost Tim Boyle bad.
  4. Are we serious trying to put Elizabeth Warren and George Santos in the same category? We don't even know if George Santos is his real name.
  5. Cam Newton was overrated. He had the one good season. He's like Richardson, big, fast athletic and poor accuracy.
  6. And yet the Bears signed a 30 year lease after the condo was renovated for hundreds of millions.
  7. Lamar Jackson doesn't use an agent. I think Baltimore wants other teams to do the negotiating and low balling before they jump in and match.
  8. I highly doubt the Lions would go down this route but it seems more pluasible than drafting a backup QB 6th.
  9. For the record, I wouldn't be opposed to signing Jackson. The Lions would still keep the 6th pick and could trade Goff to recoup some of the draft capital, but you better be sure Balitmore isn't going to match or else you've burned your relationship with Goff.
  10. If the Lions go after Jackson, they better be sure Baltimore isn't going to match because it will be awkward when they go back to Goff.
  11. Did Rod Wood hire them or did Martha? I feel like Martha was bamboozled by Ernie Accorsi who spoonfed her his former Giants connections.
  12. Yeah I thought very few teams actually own their stadiums. Anything built recently with tax subsidies is going to be owned by some stadium authority.
  13. Progressives hate Democrats. Hillary had to take it from both sides. Some of them voted for loonspud Jill Stein who had Russian connections. A lot of those same progressives are carrying water for Russia in regards to Ukraine.
  14. The Bernie or Bust people were all about her paid speeches but now Maple Jesus is doing paid speeches.
  15. Correct. Sign him to a contract that basically makes his next two years guaranteed and allow the Lions to get out of it after two or three years. It gives Goff some reassurances but doesn't neccesarily take drafting a QB in the next year or two off the table. if Goff continues to play well, you have him under control for four years.
  16. Goff's contract currently is not guaranteed and the Lions can cut him at any time. I don't think players want to play on the franchise tag. A Carr like extension gives Goff guarantees in the short term and the ability for the Lions to move on on the backside of the contract. I think it's a win for both sides. It doesn't really take the Lions out of switching QBs and gives Goff some guarantees.
  17. I wouldn't be opposed to signing Goff to a similar contact as Carr.
  18. Edmunds could be a fit for the Lions.
  19. I still don't get the Hillary hate. I'm told I'm suppose to hate her but I don't know why.
  20. Yeah the Soldier Field renovation was ridiculous. I would rather have a development that adds housing and retail than a 70,000 seat stadium and the necessary parking. Suburbs just make more sense for an NFL stadium.
  21. If the project you are talking about on the North Side is Lincoln Yards, that would be much better for Chicago than a stadium. New York turned away the Jets in Manhattan to build Hudson Yards. That a much better use of an old railyard than a stadium.
  22. Wasn't there a plan in the 90's to build a dome at McCormick Place called the McDome? That may be the one ok place to build a stadium in a city because you can share parking with McCormick Place and use the dome as part of the convention center. I have to imagine there are limited tailgating options at Soldier Field. It's also the smallest stadium in the NFL so if parking is adequate, would it be adequate for 10,000 more people?
  23. Didn't Chicago lose out on the Lucas Museum because they fought to keep a parking lot at Soldier Field?
  24. There's really nothing to work out. Are you saying the Bears never asked Chicago for money for the stadium? Are their locations in Chicago for a large stadium and parking in an accessible neighborhood? I'm not sure why Chicago is coming back with half baked plans to keep the Bears like a dome over Soldier Field. I would just be telling the Bears bye.
  25. It's too bad the Bears are going to be building this nice new stadium and will constantly be looking up in the standings at the Lions.
