Mets fan here in peace, I think a bit of both
To be fair, no rush to enter, the actual draw is on the 29th, you just have to enter between now and the 19th
Eating 20 cool ranch doritos locos tacos because the Taco Bell app tells me they're 0 calories
Big move in the race for the Eastern Conference 8th seed
Caleb juking 4 defenders, hitting 3 spin moves, for a 2 yard gain to make it 2nd and 8
Many bears games too
Vikings offense looks like Timothee Chalamet after he saw a slider outside
I am not convinced by the decision to put the game in the hands of Matt Prater who basically got to the Bills 2 days ago
Jaire coverage like
From what I've read I believe because Spurs were at one point listed on the stock exchange, they are still by UK law considered a "public company" for certain purposes and so if there is a certain level of formal bidding for ownership, they have to disclose it to the public
He was one of my Marie Kondo picks in one of my leagues, can confirm does in fact spark joy
Josh Allen when he sees the Bills WRs
I do believe this is a legal requirement
Too notable for 2 tight ends and a lie now I’m guessing
Brian in your non-expert opinion should you pay a quarterback you don't trust 53 million dollars a year
I fear it might be over for Michigan legend Jake Moody
Ok so maybe it was bad for the Lions to lose Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn and half their OL and
Bryce.....come on
Egbuka pick in fantasy was so free
Seems like the move this year might be play whichever defense is facing the Dolphins
Odds on how long before he goes full-on AB, week 5?
12 minutes into week 1, already feeling stupid for not prioritizing Tyler Warren more
I think trying to watch Justin Fields throw the football on 3rd and 11 would also push me into despair to be fair
I got 11, missed Santini and Hoddle, to be fair to me Hoddle took over before I was born
I'll take a drive where it fizzles out because Bryce can't make the play over one where they just surrender to runs any day of the week, 1 score game now
AN EXPLOSIVE PASSING PLAY WHAT IS THIS
Running it on 3rd and 6 and then trotting out Zvada
Mateer with a 2-play it's so over we're so back sequence, rough
1st down run was fine, just didn't work. Bryce barely misses a layup on 2nd which was rough, but that screen has been so telegraphed all game, come on
Ok fun back to the silly playcalling, nice
Well I'm fine with you not letting Bryce throw that much if you're gonna do that lmao
Only good thing to say about that first half is that it's only 14-0
Paying tribute to last year's team by refusing to play offense for a whole half
Took them hour and a half to figure out "let's let Bryce throw it on the move"
Don't love that playcalling
I will not overreact to the scripted drive I will not overreact to the scripted drive I will not overreact to the scripted drive
It is absolutely not "the Jets year"
Already sick of this float commercial
Best friend lives in Cincinnati now so I've had it....I can't lie it's quite good
i like the idea that there's some brazilian who thinks currently quentin johnston is just the best wide receiver in the NFL
The Chiefs kick returner is WHO?????
Norm what is your Premier League allegiance
Also reminding people of Eric Adams' fishgate story
Thank you to past me at a restaurant for drafting Brian Robinson Jr. in Round 15
Very happy so far with my side of the Jalen Hurts vs. Saquon Barkley battle in fantasy against my best friend this weekend
Javonte Williams already top contender for "guy who sits on your bench week 1 and you feel horrible then sucks the rest of the year when you start him"
The minute long commentary cutaway making it seem like we're just going through to the start of the next quarter then cutting to commercial is nasty work
To be clear 0.5 of what you normally get for 1 yard so it'd be like 0.05 per yard
What if you got 0.5 points per yard drawn on pass interference in fantasy
Kinda confused as to how much longer the Eagles are going to make Adoree' Jackson embarrass himself before they put Mitchell on CeeDee
Drake Maye 2nd year leap, yay or nay
If they let Vinai run things and hire a real DoF and kick in some money (which it's easy to forget, it's not like Lewis is lacking money, just lacked interest in spending it), that would be a dream
I hope we make smarter decisions in the market and such but it's going to be really funny when people realize Levy was not the one deciding not to blow up our wage structure or balloon our net spend
I don't think it means absolutely nothing and the point was less about top 4 itself and more to point out that we were pretty firmly a mid table side when Levy and ENIC took over, the last 5-10 years before they took over were were regularly finishing 10th/11th
That's fair, I just think you can't really decouple one from the other, but I obviously was not the biggest fan particularly once we had established ourselves as a club of that stature of his footballing decisions
We have underachieved relative to the club Levy has built, we have vastly overachieved the club he and Lewis inherited. We had not finished in the top 4 in over a decade when they bought majority control of Spurs
I completely agree that Levy was not the right person to lead what Spurs have become, but you cannot ignore, in my opinion, that Spurs were far from guaranteed to become that without him in charge
The fact that we are able to compare ourselves to Liverpool is purely because of Levy's work over the past two decades! Spurs in the 2000s were very much not on the same level, if it wasn't for Levy we could easily be West Ham or Brighton or whatever right now
I don't think one is possible without the other without going the Man City route
It also completely ignores that we are the only club that became one of the "rich clubs" not because of outside investment, but because of Levy himself
FPL is the most popular fantasy soccer competition I believe which is....not like fantasy american sports really at all. It's a bit like season-long daily fantasy
Unless they secretly have a deal agreed and the new owners wanted Vinai and a restructuring with Levy out? Which seems possible, but not quite as likely as this is 100% Tottenham being sold
My immediate reaction was "absolutely" and now it's more "possible, but this seems logical regardless"
Don't think it's 100% as moving towards this model makes logical sense regardless, but we all know it's been the least kept secret that the club has been open for sale for the past decade+ anyways
I think so
Do you think it's unlikely then that this precedes a sale?
But Tottenham never would've gotten to the stature where we needed someone to run a big club if it wasn't for him
Agreed, and I think the 20 much outweigh the 5 for me because we would've never been in a position where he could be not a good chairman if he hadn't done an incredible job with the 20 (i.e. he himself and as a stand-in for the whole of ENIC were not prepared to run a big club)
Genuinely was an incredible chairman for the club, even if towards the end he and ENIC/Lewis were not equipped for the status/stature the club had grown to, we would've never been in that position if it wasn't for his work. I suspect we'll be seeing a sale soon, nervous about those implications
I'd assume the club is being sold quite soon
Somewhat low on Sproat in general, pretty low on his ability to make an impact right now, but the bar with Manaea/Senga where they are right now is so low that I'm cool with this
I think Sproat is going to be really bad if he gets called up rn tbh
Darin Ruf has to have been worse
I think Ortiz is probably the weakest of the three cards in terms of attributes/competition for the position but it’s always super cool to use his cards
I do like this draft although it violates my sole rule which is do not trust the Jets in any fashion (Braelon Allen sorta goes against this which is why I took him late because him being a valuable fantasy player implies Jets problems)
Mad fer it
Payton Tolle is nuts
Just seen N'Geme walk into Chick King with a Spurs scarf on
Wondering if Louis Saha could help pad out the depth
Alex what is the ruling on "returning holder" Tyler Buchner, should he be holding employment instead
Gotta say that man looked like a player going on Thursday in April if he can keep that up all season
Rueben Bain Jr. might be going on Thursday in April I tell you what
These throwaways from CJ Carr are nightmare fuel
This is the most telegraphed shank of all time
Unfortunately for them they do not have a "returning holder" like Tyler Buchner
They’re not gonna keep ‘em out the living room tonight!
Surely he won’t need that third timeout
WHO is the holder????
Jeremiyah Love buddy you are allowed to not press triangle
*Carr
Pretty sure Card tried to point to a receiver like 15 yards away lmao
OTOH, Miami had a great chance there to string some first downs, chew a lot of clock, and even kick it anyway if you don't punch it in. Feels like a wasted opportunity even if they did end up going up 2 scores
Certainly seems like malpractice with a QB making his first start to barely give your star RB the ball and now put yourself in a position where you can't give him many touches bc you're down 2 scores with 10 left to play
Lmaooooooo
