Not defending Burfict but why do some goons find it unusual or weird when players support their unpopular teammates, have you guys never been a part of a team sport or had a buddy at least

I haven't known to many people over the years that try to cause serious bodily harm to others as part of their job let alone repeatedly try to cause brain damage to people for wearing a different jersey. poo poo I grew up mostly in the south and I didn't even witness a fight between kids in a baseball or basketball game. I really missed out. There's someone being an rear end in a top hat and there's people like Burfict

If you're on my unathletic recreational soccer team and repeatedly injure people or start fights, I'm much more likely to call you out than if you're some random opponent, because I'll have seen you do it multiple times and know you're being a piece of poo poo, vs a one time thing potentially being an accident.

holy loving lol @ the mental gymnastics required to somehow equate "intended to cause serious bodily injury several times" with "oh he's just an unpopular player." is that a loving bit or gimmick post or what? you can't be serious

Do your hypothetical buddies sucker punch random people on the sidewalk? This analogy sucks. If my buddy racked up multiple assault convictions, not only would he not be my "buddy" but neither would anyone that sat there and tolerated that in the friend group

Pretend I posted the Kellen Winslow "I'm a soldier!" video because I'm in a rush and cant. That's what an NFL lockerroom is like. Burfict isn't their rec soccer friend, he's their battle buddy.

The inside the NFL bit where Ray Lewis goes on a rant about wanting to hurt the other person and dominate them, and remove their will to play the game in defense of Burfict was a bit too on the nose.

Also, Brandon Marshall kept clowning him and I loved every minute of it.

I had a pretty severe case of mono in college. It took me 6 months to recover and I lost like 50 lbs and my body was so weak for years after

Late to the mono party talk but I feel for you. I had it when I was 19 or so. Best way for me to describe it is imagine having 25% of your strength and wanting (and can) sleep 20 hours a day. My bout lasted a couple months. Darn kissing random body parts.

As for football talk, wondering what kind of a clusterfuck the Colts will do.

So Diggs is on a pretty nice 5/$55m deal going forward and is in his year 26 season. He’s worth at least a 1st rounder in trade, right?

yeah, ignoring his production which is the result of a bad head coach and QB, he is extremely elite at all aspects of being a WR especially running routes he has a bit of Antonio Brown/Stevie Johnson ability there

They were $1.5m under the cap prior to the Mike Nugent and YoungHoe signings. The cap is a lie though and any team can convert bonuses in order to free up whatever space they need.

Personally I don't think he's all that special and would be surprised to see him go for a first rounder. But you never know what's going on in teams' heads, if they convince themselves that they're one veteran wide receiver away from being a great team . . . perhaps a player swap could even happen

I'd be down with a 1st for Diggs to Baltimore. It's probably overpaying, and we definitely have need elsewhere, but I love it when Maryland boys come home. I'd also be down for giving Shaquil Barrett the biggest pass rusher contract in history for the same reason.

Diggs went to Maryland so if he won't suit up for your team you know they've got issues

Minnesota shouldn't trade him for less than a first-round and extra. He's a young Pro Bowl caliber receiver on a ridiculously team-friendly deal.

Diggs is always a minor injury from a massive dropoff in ability.
