The snow game was so much fun to watch though.

I also can't believe Trent Edwards and Derek Anderson started NFL games for multiple years.

Justin Gilbert barely ever played and when he did he was awful, and his draft position was very high, but I don't know if I can call him a bigger overall bust than Weeden or Manziel considering you expect so much more from a QB than a CB.

Because they haven't drafted a quarterback in the first round since the Kennedy administration.

How much did the MOAB cost? I was hearing like $200 million yesterday but now they I have read the bomb cost $18 million. I mean you need a lot of fuel to fly something that heavy, but still.

Also, why are we losing the OAB race? Russia has a FOAB that is 4x as powerful!

The MOAB project cost about $300 million for research and development of 20 bombs. Cost per bomb is about $16 million, so lunch money for congress for a day.

He's light about 20 players and a non-zero number of coaches/staff from the last Pats white house visit. He thinks he controls the optics on this, but only with fox viewers.

It's fuckin' adorable :allears:

Technically less people went. The problem is the NYT showed pictures out of context (no coaches/staff in the group photo) which makes it seem like a substantially smaller group. That is what fake news is.

Probably the wrong thread for this, but no, that is not what "fake news" is. It's either 1. the original definition of intentionally fabricated news stories designed to go viral on Facebook or 2. the new definition of accurate news that portrays Trump in a negative light.

I'm sorry but posting the pictures the NYT did with the implication that 30 guys showed up total is indeed fake news since it is misleading and does not represent reality. You don't have to be pro-Trump to see how that might be the case.

I get that it's largely a semantic argument, but an error in initial reporting that is later corrected/given proper context is not "fake news". The term originally had an entirely different meaning, but it's been appropriated by Trump and allies to try and discredit legitimate news outlets.

https://twitter.com/NYTSports/status/854866272592461825

It's good they corrected it, but the damage was already done with the inaccurate reporting in the first place. Most people won't see the retraction or read beyond the headline.

It's really not important I just can't believe there was an argument about what fake news is in a loving football thread.

Teams using shotgun formation have increased in percentage noticeably over the last decade.

Still, somehow a college QB from a shotgun system is seen as a negative.
