saying a football player looks sloppy and out of shape doesn't seem like body shaming to me considering they are paid to not be sloppy and out of shape.

and the dr seuss rhyme doesnt seem like a big deal either.

It popped into my head, and after mulling on it for awhile, I'm pretty sure it came from hit Will Ferrell show "The Oblongs".

The guys in the NBA who have a +9 ape index probably have a few inches on him in height too so their ratio ends up lower. +9 on a dude who is only 6'4" is unreal.

What matters is that he's clearly wrong.



Also, come to the TFF Chat thread. We already decided that bodyshaming is good and being fat is equivalent to being intellectually lazy.

Seriously, he's a funny guy who always had good press conferences.

His coaching left something to be desired, but I'd way rather watch one of his press conferences then just about anyone else's. He'll be a fine talking head for all the normal blather they do.

If he looked sloppy and out of shape in March then it makes sense to say that he looks sloppy and out of shape in March if he indeed looks sloppy and out of shape in March.

Yeah, because when you have superstar players like Yeldon and Ivory, how can you really improve the position. :v:

It doesnt matter who the RB is because the OLine is absolute trash. Probably the second worst behind the Seahawks, or at a minimum bottom 5. Yeldon has shown some flashes but has mostly been mediocre, and he gets injured often. I like Ivory but I think his style works better when he has a functional OL.

If the Jaguars draft Fournette (or any RB) at 4 I'm rooting for the Raiders in 2017.

But there isn't an offensive lineman worth a top five pick. Fournette arguably is. You already have a lot invested in your defense and receiving corp, so there is a logic to grabbing him.

I agree with your first sentence. I think there are better players to draft at 4 though. I really like Solomon Thomas and an argument could be made for other players that will be available at that spot.

I'm pretty sure Fowler is a bust, so a DE wouldnt be a bad pick. A trade back, even a few spots, to be in a more appropriate position to take a lineman would be nice, too.

I'm not saying I know what they SHOULD do, but I have a strong opinion on what they should NOT do (which is draft a Running Back at 4).
