ESPN and PBS were doing a joint documentary on concussions in the NFL, and it looks like ESPN went total bitch mode when the NFL leaned on them, dropping out of the documentary altogether.

With other networks opening up their own sports cable networks and putting money behind them, will ESPN have to.... stop sucking? I feel like Fox One or whatever will wipe them off the map.

Brady

Alfred Morris

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #74 on:** August 25, 2013, 06:51:39 PM »

Brady is gonna have an off year. Like, still good, but his passing yards are going to be significantly lower. He's going to get them mostly from screen dump offs.

He and Ben will be about the same this year.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #75 on:** August 25, 2013, 06:54:03 PM »

If anybody needs a decent WR and has RB depth and wants to take a flyer on McFadden, I'll trade you one of my top 3 WRs and McFadden for any decent, DEPENDABLE rb that doesn't have a week 5 bye. Would rather not rely on McFadden.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #76 on:** August 25, 2013, 07:04:33 PM »

I have Bush and Shonn Green...Green will be a dependable 3rd down back behind Johnson, and might even rush more if Johnson has a stinker year (which I think he might).

What are your WRs again?

I have Ben Tate. With Foster still banged up a bit, he'll get extra carries.

Tate looked really solid today too, for what its worth.

I was at a family cookout today during the draft.

Didn't turn out too bad...

pilonv1 · « **Reply #81 on:** August 25, 2013, 07:59:24 PM »

Holy crap, I got AP.

Not entirely sure of the rest of my team though. Also the auto team name is really bad.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #82 on:** August 25, 2013, 08:31:42 PM »

My team is not nearly as good as last year, but still a B rating. Should be more fun this way.

Huff · « **Reply #83 on:** August 25, 2013, 08:39:16 PM »

It's also 12 teams this year. Always a bit more scrambling for decent players

pilonv1 · « **Reply #85 on:** August 25, 2013, 09:38:35 PM »

I'm expecting AP to lose a leg now, especially since my other RBs aren't much to write home about

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #86 on:** August 25, 2013, 09:39:54 PM »

I don't see how AP can replicate last season's amazing performance with Christian Ponder at QB again, but without Percy Harvin

Less than a billion is honestly probably a win for the league. IMO.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #95 on:** August 31, 2013, 01:29:09 PM »

Only place I can imagine giving him a shot (outside of the Pats again, if Brady or Mallet get injured) would be the Jags. Good way to sell tickets and their QB situation is shit.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #96 on:** August 31, 2013, 01:36:48 PM »

I think the Jags aren't interested, and he's not interested in them. CFL, Arena league, or motivational speaker.

...but etoilet is right, we'll never be rid of that fucker, unless he wakes up in a hotel room surrounded by the dismembered bodies of a boy scout troop and the knocking of the law on the door...

etiolate · « **Reply #97 on:** August 31, 2013, 01:41:21 PM »

Can he go back to the Jets? Because that would at least be hilarious. Or maybe the Mets.

Featured speaker at the 2014 CPAC, Tim Tebow.
