Meanwhile the owners are all laughing in some smoke filled room somewhere.

yeah. The room honestly looks like shabby poo poo and smells even worse. every owner is there and they haven't showered in weeks or months because they don't like to be doused with water. It stinks like stale rubbery dumplings filled with the juice from garbage bags. they're all laughing like you said and their gray tongues Are sticking out. it's called a smoke bath. They do It once every 10 days. everyone has to have a cigar even if they aren't smoking, but most Of them are sucking on it. Always side with labor no matter what. The room is extremely small and laughable. I don't know why they don't use a big room except that it might help them to get more smoke running across their bodies and 'Cleaning' them, and it might help them to keep laughing. If you have giggling fits sometimes or used to but don't anymore, and you would say "durr" or something that isn't funny but it just made you keep on doing lodes of laughing, it's similar

It's also kinda funny because the Ravens selected another guard (Ben Grubbs) with the first round pick in the draft where they got Yanda in the 3rd

Hopefully the players elect new, less poo poo reps at the earliest opportunity. But we all end up reelecting the same scumlords to congress year after year so lol probably not.

Lazy, ceaseless speculation about 2 or 3 big market teams and recycled, outdated storylines about the remainder of the franchises.

I kind of feel bad for them. Not the executives who have Golden Parachutes but all the mid level people who have to think of something, anything, to bail out a sinking ship.

I remember watching sumo in the middle of the day on ESPN2 back in college. That poo poo ruled. We even started throwing pillows when we thought the match was excellent.

Also Bodyshaping was a hell of a show to wake up to. Whoever thought having the female hosts wear thongs over leotards as workout apparel deserved a drat Emmy.

With Schobert walking as well we're down to 1 player from the 2016 draft that might be back.

Sort of.


https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2020/03/2ks-new-nfl-video-game-will-be-a-non-simulation-whatever-that-means/

quote:

While any new NFL2K game will be able to use the names, logos, and stadiums of real NFL teams, the licensing deal does not cover virtual versions of the players themselves. Rights to those players would have to be covered by a separate deal with the NFL Players Association union, which was pointedly not mentioned in 2K's announcement. A 2K representative refused to comment on the existence of any NFLPA deal when asked by Polygon.
