    Carolina Panthers General Thread

    Clowney has never lived up to his No. 1 overall pick status, but he's had a decent career. Say a disappointment (for those who care) rather than a bust. His biggest issue that I've seen over the years that I've watched him is that he noticeably takes plays off. Sometimes entire series or...

    2025 NBA Playoffs

    Lakers simply lost because the T-wolves are a better team. Sure they play dirty, but the lack of any inside game from the Lakers doomed them. Anthony Davis is a shell of what he used to be, and when he's out the Lakers have no size to deal with the interior mugging taking place. LeBrown looks as...

    Detroit Lions General Thread

    What a great story! I'll be rooting for this kid for sure. I wonder if he'll be able to wrest the #10 jersey from the future HOF WR on the team who is currently wearing it? Regardless, he will certainly bring some electricity to the Lions offense. ;)

    2025 NFL Draft

    Agreed. My hat's off to the intrepid posters here who slogged through the entire grueling draft. I watched none of it and even ignored social media with the exception of CF. I did hear all of the hand-wringing over Sheduer which was very gratifying. So how many teams did the 100% black thing...

    We Are Living In A Cartoon

    Wait, I didn't think that commercial aircraft flew over Antactica. You know, ice wall, Antactic Treaty and that there is no reason based on the map of Flat Earth for any planes to fly over it anyway. That said, the video author does not give his source for his graphic, but any search shows that...

    UFL

    One of the problems with the UFL is that they don't pay much. Many potential white players just say to hell with it and get on with their careers.

    MLB 2025 Season

    The Royals have a similar top prospect in their minor league system that is the talk of the town here. Looking forward to Jac Caglianone at the big league level. https://www.si.com/college/florida/baseball/gators-baseball-royals-top-prospect-tearing-up-minor-leagues-01jrg6yhcwfk

    2025 NFL Draft

    Of course one of my biggest measurables complaint is "arm length" for tackles. How many of the all time great tackles had an arm length of less than the magical required 34"? I understand the theory behind the measureable, but an inch of reach on the gridiron is nothing compared to technique...

    Mike Trout

    Watch this defensive play by Trout. Unbelievable.

    March Madness 2025

    Not much commentary on a championship game. I didn't watch it simply because I can't stand watching Houston, and the mugging and slobbering that would have occured had they won. Besides, I was working late out in the yard, seemed more important! Glad that Florida won, takes some of the sting...

    Recent BUSTS

    I found this post to be interesting on X. Pitts was the #4 overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft and he does indeed suck. Read through some of the comments. I would say that the majority are the DWFs that you are familiar with: "he's just in a bad situation" "his QB play has been poor" "bad...

    MLB 2025 Season

    I haven't seen any analysis on the production of players with the new bats versus the old. Aaron Judge is leading the Yankees in home runs and he is still using a standard bat, not the torpedo.

    NFL News, Rumors and Musings

    Yeah, but the media coverage for each game was radically different! McKee's was "meh. who is this career backup?" and Milton's was "Wow, he looks like he can be fantastic! Look at that cannon arm! He breaks every tackle! How was this amazing QB overlooked! bla bla bla"

    Yeah, but do they have mouth-watering upside? I thought not!

    We Are Living In A Cartoon

    All magnets, whether permanent or electromagnets, always have two poles. If there’s a magnetic north on Earth, there must also be a magnetic south. Cut a magnet in half, and each piece will have both a north and a south pole. And the azimuthal equidistant projection of the globe has nothing to...
