  1. not only would have traded for him, you would have had to give him the massive contract extension the bears just did. otoh, he is playing really well for the bears and having him across from hutch would make a nice 1-2. in hindsight, i would not have made that trade.
  2. michigan is trying to do it differently. using nil to reward players who stay rather than as an inducement to come (which is, in fact, the actual nil rule...and we KNOW how much the big ten is all about sticking to the letter of the rule, especially osu, get on it pettiti!) theyre also put behind the 8 ball a bit because of their ridiculous academic admissions department that thinks STANFORD credits dont even meet the exalted standards of the mighty university of michigan.
  3. cause i think he's a mercenary. that's three transfers in three years. the going gets tough and dante moore goes to get another bag. the larger "ugh" is that it means theyre not going to get bryce underwood. he'll take his bag from lsu.
  4. they also made it seem like the lions were actual contenders if only kevin glover, lomas brown, chris spielman, etc had stayed. ummm...no. they were not when they left and giving all those guys big bags of money wouldnt have changed that. the larger point is that the lions were a **** organization.
  5. chase young has done nothing eventful in san fran and is a free agent after this year. not sure why youre so fascinated with him. the real question is whether you would have traded a first round pick for sweat.
  6. ugh.
  7. they'll pay for whomever they want in the portal. osu will be ok.
  8. in season tournament games have been really fun.
  9. the bears dline is much improved. especially since they brought in sweat. i wouldnt assume the lions were going to run all over them. they'll need a good game from goff and no turnovers this time.
  10. they have a bunch of five stars sitting right behind him.
  11. there will be an impact on any qb from playing in the weather if that qb cant run. throwing in weather is harder than throwing in climate controlled conditions. justin fields can run so that will be a problem. again.
  12. he had an affair with his sister in law.
  13. if pettiti was in charge he would tell them when they were in the plane halfway to the bahamas.
  14. he definitely was. he was a hot commodity at the time. and instead of making him the coach, stupid ass tom gores made him the general manager too. something he couldnt do. cause tom gores doesnt know what the **** he's doing.
  15. i have no idea how the lions would beat either of these teams.
  16. chase young had zero tackles and zero sacks today. got a pressure when he was unblocked.
  17. ivey is just baby lavine on a rookie deal. why trade that for a 30 year old with bad knees and feet?
  18. please no. they'd have to deal ivey for him. they dont have any other assets since they cant trade #1 picks. lavine would be such a ballhog on the pistons. the last thing i need to see is cade hit lavine in stride for an open jumper only to have lavine dribble three times so he can try a step back three instead. or better yet, drive into four defenders rather than pass. lavine is one of the best athletes in the league and a really good shooter. he makes a lot of bad shots. but he doesnt play defense, doesnt pass, and never works within the offense. and he's on a max deal. to top it off, he doesnt want to play here and will likely sulk when things go bad. or worse, he'll just ballhog it while everyone else stands around, including cade. the only thing in favor of this deal is that detroit is never going to get another decent player with their cap space. weaver will just trade it for seconds and washed up vets on expirings. i have a sinking feeling this might happen. there's been quite a lot of smoke lately and we know how tom gores is enamored with shiny objects (svg, blake, monty...).
  19. would have been betting florida state as fast as i just bet alabama.
