NFL 2019-2020

[FONT=&quot]The DC guardians might have the XFL mvp on their roster, QB Cardale Jones. I remember Cardale’s run through the college football playoff (think he beat alabama and Oregon?), he never really lived up to his promise in the nfl, being a backup for the bills and chargers, but he seems to be doing well as a starter in the xfl. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The lions have the #3 overall pick, so theyre in prime position to trade down with someone who wants tua tagavailoa. Or if they stay at #3 they can pick that cornerback from ohio state, jeff okudah. I’ve heard the Stafford trade rumors as well, and I suppose they could get rid of Stafford and start over with Tua themselves if they think his health isn’t a concern – tua got hurt the past 2 years in college, and the hits wont be any easier in the nfl. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Yeah, we’ll see what happens with Cincy and Burrow; years ago carson palmer was a #1 overall draft pick QB who, after 7 yrs in the queen city, said he would rather retire than continue to play for the bengals. So he got traded to Oakland, and then Arizona, and had some decent years then. Is it because he thinks the bengals are too cheap to get or keep good players? Every team in the league has to follow the 89% rule, meaning they have to spend at least 89% of the cap averaged over 4 years, and it’s a hard cap league so no one can go over. Even if the bengals are at the 89% limit, other teams can only spend like 10% more at most, so im not sure that’s a huge difference. Then again, it's enough to sign one elite player, a WR or DB etc, 15-20M/yr...[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Im guessing any team that signs rivers is going to bring him in for a comprehensive workout, make sure he can still make all the throws they need him to make, passes a physical, etc. So if the colts bring him in and he looks good slinging the ball, arm strength looks fine, I could see them signing him. Now, to your point, he could still look terrible against live competition, throwing errant passes and picks, if he’s washed; maybe like with luck coming back from the shoulder injury, the colts have to give him a steady diet of easy, short, quick throws.

im sure rivers still has plenty of arm strength left and given decent pass protection, he could probably make most throws
but with only a couple years left,i see him as a fill in at best
im not too sure how close the colts are to getting to the next level and the afc.s is a pretty tight division
/only 4 games separated the division winning texans from jax
matt stafford is going into his what, like 10th or 11th season with the lions
hes played ok over that span but this is the lions best chance to move on or maybe pick up a qb for the future?
i dont think they are going to let stafford go but they have a lot of options with that high draft pick
i heard an interview witha former bengal player and he was saying how the teams owners are some of the cheapest hes ever played for
they cut corners in the scouting department and facilities and just dident seem committed to putting together a good team from the ground up

[FONT=&quot]Yeah, even if indy signs rivers and he does reasonably well, at close to 40 yo he’s not the long term solution at QB there. So maybe they draft a project QB (Jordan love from Utah state might be available lower in the 1st round) or hope luck un-retires? The main problem might be that with a decent rivers at QB they’ll never be bad enough to get a top draft pick and pick a top college QB. Then again, Dak and Russell were 2nd day draft picks, so you dont absolutely need a top pick to find a franchise QB. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Stafford had a pretty miserable 2018 but in 2019 he was playing pretty darn well until he got hurt. If he’s healthy (he had injury issues his first couple years in the league but had been healthy till last season) I think he’ll be good to very good again, but it has to be tempting to the lions to start over with a much cheaper and possibly equally as good QB – Tua has mahomes-like arm talent and would cost like ¼ or 1/5 what Stafford costs, meaning they’d have 25M/yr to spread among 2 or more very good free agents. It would be a shock for them to make that move though, and of course there’s more than a chance it could backfire (tua keeps getting hurt, they sign bad free agents, etc). But ur right, this may be their best chance to win a championship, by taking some big risks and hoping they work out. Not sure the owner/mgmt has the balls to make those moves, but maybe 5 decades of mediocrity will motivate them.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Ive heard other teams were kind of cheapo too, like the raiders under al davis (when reggie mckenzie took over as gm, he had to beef up the facilities and scouting staff) and the saints share a training staff with the nba pelicans (tom benson owns both teams), which is one of the reasons Anthony davis wanted to be traded to the lakers. Most teams nowadays seem like they provide their players with all the bells and whistles: gourmet food prepared by professional chefs at the team facility, massages and physical therapists and fancy exercise and recovery equipment, etc. It just makes financial sense, with salaries the way they are now, you can provide your players the best care and food for the price of one moderately expensive player. If you’re spending 180M on player salaries, why cheap out on 5-10M by denying them professional nutrition and healthcare? Then again, there’s no accounting for the cheapness of some owners, especially owners who are not independently wealthy, like hedge fund or IT guys. I guess the bengals owner, mike brown, is like that. Marge schott used to own the Cincinnati reds MLB team, and her employees would tell stories of how she’d walk around the Reds office and turn down the thermostat during the winter to save on gas…[/FONT]

happening baba! its freaking raining cats and dogs outside and im loving it
/just heard a thunder clap and saw a flash; RAD!!
exactly brother, rivers is not the long term solution at qb for any team
if he could go to a team that was one piece away (elite qb) from making the next level it would be one thing, but i dont even know if hes that one piece that would bring it all together
/hes had some pretty good chargers players around him over the years, but he still never took the team to the next level; btw:f-spanos
i think the colts would be better off sticking with j.brissette and working that pick into something better
so what do you think about dak and his upcoming deal with dem'cboys?
i hear hes going to be asking for major coin but do you think hes worth it?
like youve mentioned the knock on tua is his durability
i liked the kid but wouldent be surprised if he drops a few spots because of something medical
its funny how some owners can be so cheap and skimp on things that seem frivolous
i would think its more like an investment in your team hiring top notch training staff
im cheap myself but some things you dont want to skimp out on

I actually wouldnt mind seeing what rivers could do on the bears, Pop. He's at least as good as trubisky, but the bears O-line was pretty bad last year, if it's not any better next season it might not matter who they have at QB.

Im not sure any QB outside of mahomes or prime rodgers/brady/manning is worth 35M+ a year. So much of a qb's performance depends on having good players (run game, receivers, blocking) around you that it can be hard to separate the truly special ones from the merely talented ones in a very good situation.

On the other hand, dallas had gone through probably 10 pretty bad QB's between aikman and romo, and so to luck into dak immediately after romo is pretty big for them. Im pretty sure they dont want to rotate through guys like drew henson or quincy carter again, trying to find a viable starting qb.

You can win without an elite qb, look at the niners with garrapolo, with that D and run game they were 8 minutes away from winning the superbowl.

But regardless, dak will be franchised by the cowboys if they dont come to a long term agreement. It's still a hefty price tag (30+M) but only for one year, so if his performance drops or he gets hurt they can drop him. Downside to that is if he holds out in protest, like leveon bell did. Doubt he would, though, that'd be 2M per game he'd be giving up, and he's generally been very healthy and the injury risk isnt as high for qb's as it is for rb's.

while i agree that a starting nfl qb shouldent be making north of 30m unless he is hof material
but it seems like thats the going price
like everything in this country, prices just keep going up regardless of the actual value
i could see a a bunch of qb in the league being worth top dollar with a tiered sstem of pay based on talent and potential, but dak holding out for top dollar is just out of line
i think he feel (its his agent) that he should be paid flaco money because hes so elite*
i just dont see him playing like one of the tops guys at his position
yeah hes really good and knows the system, but that puts him at m.stafford level or somewhere there abouts
you are totally right about the qb spot being one player who can only do so much
yeah there are guys who make amgic when they touch the ball, mahommie pat mahomes, l.jax, t.brady. top brees or rodgers (the list can go on)
but the majority of good qbs in the league need a rock solid defense and at least a couple good hands on offence
i think you might be right that dak will end up being franchised by the cowboys and then skip out on camp
you are probably right that rivers would be an upgrade from trubinski next season, but thats about it
i dont think hes going to turn it up enough to put the bears over the top and after next year, all bets are off
/will rivers want to come back for another seasons; will be be healthy enough to play at top level for another year?
looks like the lions might be open to offers at the #3 spot after all
/i was just weed talking last week but now it seems like it might be interested parties in det
this years draft has some potential tallent that could go quickly so i can see a bunch of teams wanting to move up in order to secure the player they want; who knows what det will do with the pick but if you really want a "certain" qb you might want to bust a move
hope you are having a great week my man and things are starting to warm up for you

[FONT=&quot]Yup, ur totally right about prices going up on everything. Look at rent prices, I think those are a good 30% higher than they were 8-10 years ago, in the big cities/highly sought after neighborhoods, at least. And I remember when peyton signed with the broncos back in 2011, 9 years ago he was making around 18-20M/yr, now the going rate for top QB’s is twice that.
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I think the ‘boys could use a ‘non-exclusive’ franchise tag on Dak, which would be worth 27M instead of 33M for one year, but he would have the right to find another team to match or beat that. But like u said, what other team would pay Dak even 27M/yr? The QB needy teams are either going to find one in the draft (for 1/5 that price) or go with one of the available Free agents for much less, except for maybe Brady and Bridgewater, who might want 30M/yr. Dak led the league in passing yds last season but got shut down by the bills and bears defenses late in the season, until garbage time at least when he was able to finish the games with 300+yds in those losses. So ur absolutely right that he probably still has to prove he’s a top 5 QB, he has a new head coach in mccarthy who brought out rodgers’ best years and has the same OC as last year, Kellen moore, if he balls out again next year maybe we’ll have to eat our words?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Where rivers goes and how he does next season will be one of the stories worth watching, after starting for SD/LA (eff dean spanos!) for 16 yrs it’ll be wild to see him playing for another team. Who knows, if he plays well next year maybe he’ll win a superbowl and join his draftmates Ben Roethlisberger and eli manning as championship QBs. That would be an ideal way to end his career although highly unlikely. [/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]We’ll see if anyone wants to trade for the lion’s #3 overall pick, jump in front of Miami at #5 for the right to draft Tua. Raiders have 3 first rounders, could make something happen. Or Miami could trade up, they have multiple first rounders also. Lions are sitting pretty at #3, we’ll see if they can manage to not screw this up. I remember the Rams traded the #2 overall pick to Washington (they picked RG3) back in 2011 but I don’t think all the extra picks the rams got turned into much?[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]It was in the 40’s this past weekend so that was nice. We are almost in March so that helps, overall the winter was pretty mild, we’ve had like 1/3 the snow we usually get so that helps as well…[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Saw some of the XFL game between the LA and DC teams, 0-2 LA trounced the 2-0 DC team. Yknow, these xfl games look like real football, fwiw, I think the talent level is at least as good as top college teams, maybe better for all i know. And the slightly different rules and increased access (sideline interviews, coaches mic'ed up, live shots of the booth ref reviewing video) makes it interesting as well.

i like the xfl overall, especially the way they have pulled back the curtain and given more access to the behind the scenes action
i agree that the talent feels like something between a good college game and week 3 of the pre-season
i also like some of the new rules they have, especially how they run the kickoffs
we will see what happens to rivers and im sure he will play another seaons or two
depending on how the draft and free agency shakes out we will have to see where he ends up; but it seems like a lot of teams are at least considering a change at the qb position
the lions are in a great spot @#3 and i think they need to get the most out of their pick
if they arent going to draft a qb the can easily trade down to either miami or the bolts at #5 or#6
both teams are looking for a new qb and the #3 spot would almost guarantee them the guy they want
you are right about the raiders having a lot of draft capital to work with and they could also make some interesting trades with all their first round picks
/i tihnk they will stick with d.carr for another season
so chase young said hes not goign to work out at the combine
the reaction among the head shed* was mixed about if this will help him or hurt him in the draft
i think hes pretty much a top-5 pick and if you want to see him in action you just watch his tape but i also agree with some of the guys about it may bring up some question marks for some of the scouts
/why dosent he want to show off what he can do?
40' weather sounds like you guys are in a heat wave; time to break out the shorts and t shirts yet baba'
i know its all relative and i bet it feels nice, especially if you are in the sun
we are heading out camping this weeeknd and its supposed to be a mild santa ana this week
/warm winds out of the east from the desert
but that also means there will be no clouds at night so its going to get cold (high 30 low 40)
im bringing some cold weather gear just in case it gets chilly
/plus we will bring a telescope because the star gazing will be awesome
hope you are making your waty through your week and having a great fat tuesday!

[FONT=&quot]Yup, the XFL kickoff rules encourages more returns; the players cant even start to block until the returner catches it, and the teams are lined up like 10 yds from each other so blockers aren’t running into each other full speed, lessening the chance of injuries. So most kickoffs are returned to at least the 35yd line, whereas in the nfl most kickoffs are touchbacks. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Rivers will get interest from the Bucs, Colts and possibly the Bears. Maybe the panthers come calling if they trade cam away. And who knows, if there’s not much interest in him he may have to lower expectations and sign for a premium backup job, maybe the steelers would be interested in a capable backup if big ben gets hurt again. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I forgot the chargers are still looking for a franchise QB. They have tyrod, who can win you some games, but ur right, theyre a team that is looking for the next 15yr starter at QB. I would think they’d be happy to take Herbert if they stay at #6, but if some other team falls in love with Herbert maybe they’ll have to trade up, like u said. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The very top prospects often don’t do all the drills at the combine, but they do perform at their pro day at their college campus later on. Guys like Chase Young, scouts know he’s big and fast and talented, why risk injury doing combine drills before the draft? He’s already considered the #2 consensus pick in the draft, he’s really got nothing to gain by competing with other players at the combine. What if he tries to beat all the other D-linemen in the bench press and tears a pectoral muscle? Or tries to beat them in the 40yd dash and pulls a hamstring? He’ll do all those drills at his pro day without any added pressure to show off. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]As soon as I said it was warming up we got a winter storm warning of up to 6 inches of snow, lol. Luckily it was only an inch or two so that was ok. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Camping in the desert and watching stars sounds cool as hell, and ripe opportunity to get blazed and contemplate the universe. But yeah, almost freezing temps would suck, definitely bring some heavy layers. Do some tents have heaters or u just depend on body heat to warm them up? Having a nice fire going (not in the tent of course) would be ideal, but is there a lot of wood out there to burn or do u have to bring ur own? [/FONT]

Yeah Jelly, the bacon mixed into the burger meat didn’t really stand out, imo it would have been much better just as a burger topping like normal. For chorizo, I normally get a brand called Supremo, all their products come in a green and white packaging. It’s fine, a carniceria that makes their own chorizo might be as good or better. I guess you’d just walk up and ask for chorizo? Should be displayed right in the case if they make their own…


You're still a pioneer in manly cuisine for trying the bacon/hamburger thing. Thanks for the answer about chorizo. I'll have to look for the Supremo Chorizo, sounds like just what I need!:biggrin:

you cant go wrong with good chorizo and fresh corn tortillas jellyfish
i usually have chorizo for breakfast, cook it up in a pan and then scramble in a few eggs
but you can also make some mean tacos with the chorizo meat and some fresh chopped onions and cilantro
if you do try it let us know what you think

that was my taek in c.young
hes pretty much a top 5 pick so he dosent have much to gain by working out
but like you mentioned, he has a lot to lose so why risk it
as it stands now, i think the chargers could draft a good qb at the #6 spot
washington and ny dont seem to be in the qb market and we will have to wait and see what det does with their #3 pick
the fun part is, a lot can change between now and then
if det dosent want to draft a qb i could totally see them trading down to someone who does, the same goes for the giants
/both teams could move down a few spots and still land themselves the player they want
that would be so weird if rivers went to pitt; wasnt he and rapelsburger drafted in the same year?
him goign to the bears would be kind of a lateral move; comparing the two o'lines i dont see him being much more productive than he was last season inless chi upgraded its pass protecton
/i would like to see a more mobile qb land in chi'town and think cam would be a great fit
colts would prbably be the best place for him, but would he really be the best player for the colts?
yeah brother, its going to be rad camping this weekend
tomorrow is my friday; we are taking real friday off and heading out to the campsite early
/check in is at 2p
nothing beats hanging out in nature next to a nice fire having a chill time
plus we also have a mystical journey planned if you get me
you know im going to think about the sun and the moon and the stars and all that shit!
oh its gone'be on!

Hey Jelly, how do YOU feel about possibly, maybe having Phillip Rivers as the Colts starting QB for 2020? Good, bad, iffy?


The best bacon/hamburger mix I did was when I chopped up the bacon rough and then made smashburgers on the cast iron pan, burgers smashed down to like a quarter inch thick. That way the bacon meat got some good heat to it and some of the bigger pieces even turned nice and crispy.



It's funny you mentioned the chorizo/burger mix, some time ago i went to a local carniceria (hispanic grocery store with in house butcher) that had a small deli counter that made their own burritos/tacos. It was called Martinez Supermarket and located SW of downtown, they were famous for making their chorizo inhouse and giving you giant burritos for under $10.

Tried them out and wasnt that impressed, first of all they were out of chorizo, so i ordered steak; i wasnt too put off because they were well known for their steak as well, but the burrito didnt impress me that much with either its size (didnt seem that much bigger than offerings from similar stores), taste (steak was well seasoned but overcooked and rather dry) or price (think prices went up, it was over $10). Wasnt bad though, just not worth a second trip imo.



picture.php



Decently hefty package but not 'big as my head'.


picture.php



Most taquerias around here offer the same green and red sauces, red is generally more spicy. They were good but not noticeably better than similar offerings.



picture.php



Looks good, they pressed it in a grill press/panini machine after rolling to get those nice char marks.



picture.php



Tasted pretty good, plenty of steak but like i said, meat was somewhat overcooked. Maybe my fault, i got there an hour before close, lot of these places tend to leave a pile of cooked meat on a cool spot on their grill, which makes it quick to prepare but also can dry it out over time.



Like Pop said, mixing eggs with a chorizo is great for breakfast, or any meal really. Chorizo in general is a very fatty sausage, when you cook it is makes a lot of (spicy) grease, like cooking bacon, so when you mix it with eggs the eggs soak up that extra fat and flavor. It can also be pretty spicy so just fyi if you have a sensitive palate.



There is a faint rumor that the redskins, at #2 overall, might pick Tua over Young. So much like what the cards did last year, picking kyler when they had just spent a 1st rounder on rosen the year before, if a team thinks they can get a much better QB, they wont hesitate to move on from even a recent high draft pick. Not that haskins was as bad as rosen was in their rookie years, but it's very possible haskins is an average at best starter, whereas tua has mahomes-level arm talent, just the staying healthy part is his big issue. But supposedly he went through 9 hrs of medical testing at the combine and doctors say his hip fracture/dislocation looks like it was heal fully, no nerve or circulation issues.



The giants have publicly stated theyre willing to deal their #4 overall pick, not sure how much they'll get if burrow, young and tua are gone in the first 3 picks. I guess somebody with a hard on for herbert or okudah (ohio state DB) could trade up?


I think it'll be a definite priority for the bears to upgrade their O-line through the draft and maybe free agency. Both trubs and the run game will look better, maybe much better, with a decent blocking unit. Kyle long finally retired this offseason after injuries made his play subpar, so at least the bears can move on from his years-long struggles (soon as he signed his extension in 2016, he's been injured every year).



Cam is supposedly healing well and if so should stay with carolina, at 18M for next season he would be underpaid if he was a top 12 QB again. Rivers and Ben (alleged rapist but now, much like kobe, considered a solid family guy) were in the 2004 draft class, not sure rivers would consent to be anybody's backup but if the market for him doesnt pan out and he wants to win a ring then he could do a lot worse than latch onto the steelers, they have a great D, some talent on O and Ben is somewhat injury prone, just need a capable QB to be a playoff team.

^who the fucks this guy?!?
/jk; its my main man from another thread sunshineinabag!
dident know you were into football
i hear you about w.payton being one of the goatiest of goats to ever step foot on a football field and growing up i always tried to run like him
im glad to see you around here bruh and hope you join in the fun

the top-5 picks in this years draft look like it could get really interesting and i a lot depends on how the combine goes and what the scouts think of some of the top talent available
i could see any of the teams with the 2-4 spots being open to a trade
i can also see the fins' @#5 and dolts@#6 wanting to move up to guarantee they get the guy they want
its going to be interesting
so it sounds like there might be some truth to the rumors t.brady might want ot leave ne
it was confirmed by rappaport that hes been talking with a few teams (la'Cocks being one of them) and could be interested in signing elsewhere
i still think hes going to stay with new england and is only doing this to get a solid dollar figure to put on the table when he negotiates a new deal with the pats
(team-X is willing to pay me this much, what is your counter offer)
but we will see
it was also mentioned that the colts might be interested in old man rivers
ive said before how i feel about rivers going to indy so im not on board but it would be cool to hear what an indy fan has to say about all this
i heard the same thing about how the cats are going to stick with cam this year rather than take the cap hit and give him one more season to make it happen
thats interesting that the skins might want to trade down and i see a lot of upside to that
depending on who they trade the #2 pick to, they could still land c.young and possibly get another draft pick or two in the deal
i still think ny is likely to bust a move, they have a new qb and their franchise rb in barkley
but we will see
while that buritto looks way grinding i can see how its not all it could be
like you said, if you are paying $10 for a carne assada buritto it should be full of flavor and rolled fat
nice choice going with both the red an green salsa; i like the tomatillo sauce but a good red sauce cant be beat
do they have any other sauces? most mexican joints around here have a full on salsa bar with no less that three or four choices of salsa plus a nice pico
/most will also have the carrots too
does the carcinera also sell meat thats been pre marinated that you can take home?
/plus,is it any cheaper?
i was at a friends house recently and he had this bomb ass adobada meat that he got from a local mexican grocery that was awesome
hope you are wrapping up your week nicely baba' and all set for a great weeknd ahead of you my friend!

[FONT=&quot]Hehe, sunshine has posted (once) before in this thread, didn’t know he was a payton fan. Sad to say sweetness retired before I really followed football so I haven’t seen much of his games, maybe on YT I can catch up?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I think Free agency opens up March 16 so it’ll be interesting to see what sort of deals are made in the first day or two, if Brady really signs elsewhere, who rivers ends up with, etc. And then of course the draft in April, where like u said there may be a lot of trades down and up, depending on what happens in FA.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]I think ur right about brady though, he’s just going to end up back with the Pats. He’s taken discounts the last 7-8 years (back in 2010-2012 he was among the highest paid in the league) so like Michael jordans last few years in Chicago he’ll want a hefty, hefty raise after years of being underpaid. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The combine is going on now so most of the prospects are being tested and evaluated. Jalen hurts led all qb’s in 40 yd dash time but justin Herbert wasn’t too far behind him even though hes significantly bigger, so Herbert may jump up draft boards because of his athleticism, like carson wentz or josh allen. I still don’t think chase young falls below #3, and that’s only if both burrow and tua go 1 and 2, but maybe there’s a chance Herbert goes #3 and chase falls to #4?[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Just about every taqueria around here has the standard red and green sauces, usually in squeeze bottles at every table or given in small containers with every take out order. Im with u, im all about the green tomatillo sauce, trying the red one just to see how spicy it is. I don’t mind some heat but I do like flavor more than just heat. If it’s a place that gives out free chips when you dine in, you’ll get some sort of red salsa or pico de gallo with it also. And yeah, sometimes they’ll give you the spicy pickled veggies on the side with your meal, I call it Mexican giardiniera, thick sliced carrots and onions and jalapenos pickled together, not too bad heatwise so long as you avoid the jalapenos. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]All the carniceria places make their own marinated meat, stuff like fajita meat (chicken and beef), chorizo, taco meat. I hardly ever get that stuff though, usually just buy cut up chicken. Their prices are usually pretty good though, lower than comparable American groceries, usually…[/FONT]

You guys ever go to a Mexican restaurant that serves cole slaw with your chips and salsa? It sounds weird.... but damn it's addicting...


I hope the Browns resign Joe Schobert.. but I think he is going t find a new team... If that happens... I expect The Browns to try and move up to pick up Isaiah Simmons instead of a Stud OT

[FONT=&quot]What Mexican place is this? Never seen cole slaw or anything close to it at any of the taquerias ive been to, even the ones that have American food (burgers, etc) on the menu.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Schobert was a good, all around LB for the browns, could rack up tackles and passes defensed and sometimes multiple turnovers in a game. Is he expected to sign a big FA deal, like 15M/yr or more? Then I could see why the browns would want to replace him with a cheaper rookie. And that simmons kid from Clemson could be the next great coverage linebacker, someone perfect for today’s all out passing offenses, he could even cover wideouts if he had to.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Ja, lange Zeit war es viel weniger beliebt als Baseball, aber in den letzten 20 Jahren war es Amerikas beliebteste Sportart, obwohl ich denke, dass Fußball schon länger existiert.[/FONT]

Yep, I think Schobert is going for big money, plus I don't blame him for wanting to move on.. The team has been a joke his entire career..


The place that serves cole slaw with the chips, is a hole in the wall joint I go to from time to time, the fajitas are usually my go to! I just wondered if it is a local thing, or if other people have seen it
