a neat cape posted:Antonio Gates ruled Yeah, they also do a full decade list, which is just so many words about Gronk: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/quick-reads/2020/quick-reads-decade-review-te-totals But Gates is 5th, despite the 2010's starting in year 8 of his career, and with this note: Gronkowski's 461 DYAR in 2011 was the best in this or any other decade. The second-best mark of the 2010s was Antonio Gates' 361 in 2010. Grittybeard posted:I can't forget his last season when he was completely done and moved like a backhoe or something and Bob Sutton still couldn't figure out how to cover him. Yeah, it's funny just how slow Gates and Witten were in their last years... but still catching stuff, just doing these old man shuffles to pick up 8 yards then going down immediately as someone 12 years younger then them comes screaming at them.

For the June thread people, have 4 minutes of slow rear end QB running plays: (okay, they aren't all slow as hell QB's, but they sure are all white). There's the most Tony Romo rear end play in there, like just wow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-WxE_LZTOg&t=28s

The Texans top end talent was real scary for awhile. Health/BoB hosed that all up, but Watson / Hopkins / Watt / Clowney is pretty high up there on a list of 4 best players on a team.

Grittybeard posted:I haven't verified this but I heard someone on the radio saying you can only spread signing bonuses out for 5 years or something like that. Yes, prorated bonuses can only be spread out over 5 years. I *believe* you could put in vesting roster bonuses that kick in down the line to have easily obtainable guaranteed money in those later years, but I don't think there's much reason to. If Mahomes is smart, those later years do have non-vesting roster bonuses set on the first day of the league year to force them to lock in early though, but that's a different thing.

I mean I'm sure there will be some, and I know I'm going to hear a lot of laughing about the Chiefs not being able to put a team around him together. But I feel like most will just be 'well poo poo, but if anyone it might as well be him.' Eh, win a few more playoff games and everyone will hate and be sick of him. It's pretty great to be honest, highly recommend it.

That was with the Yankees right? If so , that was at least in the zeitgeist of when the Yankees were just buying all the best players so everyone hated them for that.

Mystic Stylez posted:I don't think anyone in their right mind would hate Barry Sanders even if he won 15 Lombardis Change the situation a little bit and he'd be sure hated by at least a chunk of fans. He's cute and cuddly because he's wearing that Lions blue. Let's say it's '97, he forces his way out of Detroit quietly, he ends up on the 49ers, and rides Steve Young to a Superbowl over the Broncos. They have a rematch in the Superbowl the next year and he makes some innocuous comment about loving to play the game before the superbowl that the Denver media explodes as a rip on Terrell Davis's migraines. Barry runs all over the Broncos sad D again sending Elway into retirement as a quintuple loser, and Barry Sanders is mega-hitler in Denver now.

TD retires due to Migraines early and the Broncos trade for Barry, boom done. Now Barry Sanders is the guy who made Elway into Elway. Kalli fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Jul 7, 2020 |

fsif posted:What is the charitable explanation for Jackson here? Like he went onto clarify "hey, I don't hate anyone! I only meant this one part!" and he pointed towards the excerpt that talked about the Jewish world domination plot. The closest I've got is that a lot of black liberation stuff ends up with anti-semetic elements due to a combination of factors from decades of everything from trolls, to absorbing the same media as the rest of america, to government psyops, to religious groups and influences. Same thing with the leadership of the Not loving Around Coalition that was demonstrating against white supremacy at Stone Mountain this weekend. So his best case scenario is he fell into a extremist hole and hopefully learns how to dig up.

Catfish Noodlin posted:I think they both realize that they're probably not going to successfully run a season and they want to position themselves for cancellation. The NFLPA wants to do everything possible to get to week 1, and trigger game checks and be able to make the argument that players getting on the field for one game represents an accrued year on their contracts, and the NFL wants to be able to kill everything before that if possible. That makes a lot of sense on the part of the owners come to think of it.

I really wish Tebow had had like a .... 5 year run of being an aggressively terrible QB that kept winning 9-10 games every years, so stuck around. That would've ruled. Just constant 25 yard scrambles to make the score 16-13 late in the 4th quarter of games.

The quotes are from Black Hebrew Israelite stuff, not sure how many layers of irony poison nonsense ends up with it being attributed to Hitler, but there you go. It's also a super fragmented belief system, with tons of different tiny churches and sects, but my guess is it originally came from the Church of the Living God, the Pillar Ground of Truth for All Nations because they've got a presence in Philadelphia and they have the coolest name.

Grittybeard posted:Wouldn't surprise me, also wouldn't surprise me if they're one and done as far as championships. Right. Winning a superbowl is about health, luck, and having enough talent in the right places at the right prices to win. And the more you win, the more wear and tear are on your best players who are playing 3-4 games more a season then others, the more they're getting paid way more then you can pay them in free agency, and, oh yeah, all your coaches and front office people are being picked off to run other teams. The front office thing is typically the hardest to deal with, because drafting is very cyclical, and your best windows to win is ~2-5 years after you had a run of excellent drafting. Let alone that almost any position outside of QB has a shelf life shorter then a video game console generation. Hell, look at the 2012 seahawks, which had, 3 likely hall of famers on that defense and a great young QB, and won... 1 Superbowl

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Back in 2010 would anyone have thought that Rodgers wouldn’t win another Super Bowl? What about Brees? Right, yeah, Rodgers is a great example 2011: Goes 15-1, at the height of his power, defense is mediocre, gets their doors blown off by the Giants in the playoffs. 2012: Fixes the defense, goes 11-5, has absolutely no answers for Kaepernick in the playoffs 2013: Rodgers misses half the season, lost season. 2014: Rodgers is back! runs into finely tuned Seahawks buzzsaw in the playoffs. 2015: Roster is starting to fade, Rodgers still Rodgers, go only 10-6 and lose to.. the Cardinals? You lost to the 2015 Arizona Cardinals in the playoffs? 2016: Retool the offense, but run into the Falcons buzzsaw in the NFCC. Then the roster falls apart until last year, and now Rodgers is gonna be 37. Could've won the Superbowl 3? 4? 5? times in the last decade, but just couldn't put the right healthy roster together or ran into a hotter team.

It's especially dumb in the NFL where you have linemen lined up inches from each other then slamming into each other for 3 hours. The NFL where players literally jam their hands up the asses of other players in the pile to try and dislodge the football will prevent them from shaking hands after the game.
