I think the Bucs might beat the Saints before returning to form for the rest of the season.

Burfict plays solely to hurt people, the games are incidental

Football is funny that way. All it takes is a play here, a play there. Like how if the Patriots weren't inveterate cheaters Baltimore would be 4-0 in the playoffs in Foxborough instead of a just 2-2.

There’s a semi-pro league, but it’s probably going to shut down now that they have to pay their players.

It’s still early in the process, but I think that’s not how it’s going to work in practice. The compensation the players receive will largely be payments to attend rather than actual sponsorships and advertising. Certainly a few players will get some outsize deals, but the majority of payments will be inducements to play at a specific school. Maybe it won’t come directly from the colleges, but boosters or other hangers-on; regardless, it’ll be pay-for-play.

College sports are corrupt as hell and injecting more money into them is not going to fix the systemic problems. At least it will be more equitable.

They do that to try to create marquee matchups or something and it's always like the Cowboys playing the Giants in the afternoon and it has sucked for sooooooo long.

I typed that before I looked at the schedule and of course the Cowboys are one of those games tomorrow. I mean that's actually a half decent matchup with the Packers but there are years and years full of weeks where that wasn't the case.

It owns that Cincinnati, Washington, and the Jets all play Miami this year. Really ups the chances that the Dolphins botch their tank and only get like the third pick after intentionally “building” one of the worst rosters in history.

Miami gives up entirely after the first half and they’re already bad, so it’s kinda in the bag.

First half is used as a long term scouting for next year while second half is uhhh a shitshow

quote:

Responding to the news that the NFL had pored over last week’s Raiders-Colts game and found another illegal hit in addition to the one that got Burfict suspended, (Lamont) Smith said the NFL is treating Burfict differently from other players.

“Hmmmm . . . I wonder how many other players they’ve done that for in the last two or three years,” Smith told NFL.com.

Smith says Burfict should not be suspended longer than the five-game suspension Albert Haynesworth received for stepping on an opposing player’s head.

“It’s different when someone is trying to make a football play, not a deliberate act where someone is trying to hurt an opponent,” Smith said. “Haynesworth was trying to hurt someone and he got five games.”

exactly the argument i thought burfict's agent would use.
