Yeah that's where you've got to give some benefit of the doubt. On the flip-side (not directed at you), it seems there's a perception for some that gun possession for 18-19 y/os, male, in a college town, at 130AM, is somehow common or not a baseline issue here...so that's where there's some gap for me. Must be a generational thing. I don't think, as some say, its a high horse type thing or being self-righteous. Seems like common sense to veer away from gun activity when you have a highly public career on the line and millions upon millions of dollars at stake. Especially considering this was coming to the hands of someone who had been drinking and you are apparently sober...but Miller was initially trying to get in the club/bar with them. So his initial intent was to hang out with these guys at the bar? I guess he was just considering sober chilling with them until his next DD call? He simply didn't have to drive back there and seeing that text should have prompted any "normal" person, as some put it, to not come. The risk unto himself as an individual should have made him not go. Anyways, the PD shut the case down quickly to confirm Miller was not an accessory. So that's what we've got. It's still sketchy as hell. A woman, young mother died. You don't have to be at the beck and call of your sh*tty teammate. Especially when you're the blossoming star. Considering the personalities of his new coworkers, like Bouknight & Bridges, it makes me super nervous. If this team wanted to look serious about Miller's development and the build, they would ship Bouknight, not bother re-signing Miles, and get some better dudes around Mark, Miller & Lamelo. That's my wish. This dude is on the team now so it is what it is.

Some rather obvious options: D. Miles: "Bring me my gun" B. Miller: "No" -- D. Miles: "Bring me my gun" B. Miller: <never answers, turns around & goes to bed bc it was early morning>

Our ability to space/open the floor for 3s is entirely reliant on the return of Mile Bridges. That makes my stomach turn. This guy does not excite me in interviews but it seems he's got a dart. Hoping for the best.

Yeah, there's a few fine lines here. Pushback will say he didn't do anything, shouldn't be punished, it was a teammate, he was a "DD" sure. Fine, let's accept he's not culpable under the law, and was just at the behest of his older teammate as a DD...that doesn't mean you should take him with the #2 overall pick. It means he shouldn't go to jail. The text said "Bring me my gun". He made a bad call and has to live with it. The Tuscaloosa PD, Sponsored by the Crimson Tide, deemed he was not an accessory. So at this point, let's take him for his word and the PD for their investigation. K. Bad judgement, shady situation. Where I'm even more nervous is his demeanor and interviews. Personality is everything in an NBA locker room. It's not 53 guys and 15 coaches. We don't have any real vet leaders and a bunch of goofy kids, Bouknight's partying-to-pass-out self and potentially a legit wife beater coming back in Bridges. I already don't trust the brothership Lamelo+Bridges have, Lamelo needs to be shown how to lead. Miller seems introverted, very pushable, and has the personality of a wet paper bag. He just makes me so freaking nervous being thrown into this locker room. He's got a shot. We've got a guy who has off ball skills from deep. Nervous about his defense in the pros when at the 3 & his on-ball driving skills. Rim stats were bad. A lot to be quite hesitant about and fair that so many fans are ticked off.

Deal with BOA could still get done. If not, needs to be a company with enough to support the naming rights contract (which will be bonkers). It will probably be Delhaize America Stadium or some sh*t

Overall, it still looks like even the socials has no idea on what's new v. old. The striping is different on multiple new posts, the helmet blue doesn't match the jersey. C'mon Panthers, get it together!

The black & white un-distracts from the weird color miss between helmet & jersey.

Rhule: Now:

Well shucks be the pickleshoe

IT HAS HAPPENED

I felt a deep tone from the huddle and had to drop in...

I kid, I kid

Can "Not Levis" be an option?

The Steam Room is big enough.

Today it’s 30 min on the stair stepper and live from the steam room

We could also do what I call the Fresno package: Derek Carr (FA) & Jake Haener (R3) Trade back a tad for an extra future 1st (Could be a high 2024 pick or ammo for Caleb if it doesn’t work) Land Jordan Addison, Dalton Kincaid & Charbonett and flier mid round weapons QB: Carr/Haener/Corral RB: Charbonnet/Foreman/Blackshear TE: Kincaid WR: Moore/Addison/TMJ/Reed

But to the point… Irsay and Rodgers are the two that could swerve the entire trajectory of things league wide. More than Carr, NY teams and Todd

Or we just go for a SB this year and trade 9 and some for him. The only non negotiable pick being 2024’s first which we draft Cam Ward or J Daniel’s with late 1st who learns behind him while we get 2 Lombardis. Land Rodgers, get desperate vets wanting a ring on discount. Musgrave R2 Some defense for the rest… SB jk or am I?…

Who? THE COLTS & AARON RODGERS Oddsmakers aren't counting out Indy-Rodgers by any means after Steichen joined the fold. https://www.si.com/nfl/colts/news/colts-aaron-rodgers-derek-carr-daniel-jones Now THIS, I find interesting. Jonathan Taylor, Michael Pittman, a good OL coming back from an injury plagued season, the easier division in the AFC, and the most wildcard owner in the league. If Indy lands Rodgers, Pick 4 is far from being guaranteed QB. Bears may not have as many suitors for #1 overall, and we could be in a great spot to not have to trade it all away. This right here could crack this league wide open. Scenario: 1. Bears: Carter DT 2. Texans: Levis QB 3. Arizona: Anderson EDGE 4. Colts: ....or is it the Packers who have Love? Then come pick 5, Stroud, Young, Richardson are all still available...

It is crazy how much of a spiral Denver has been in, even compared to us. SB Karma.

Honestly, Richardson may benefit more from shadowing/being an understudy than just going to a pass-heavy/stat padding Pac-12 offense. He needs refinement as a passer and needs to learn the NFL game, maybe the sooner he starts at that the better? Where he ends up will definitely be interesting.

I've got Collins, Proehl, & Kuechly, would consider a Chinn one but I don't even wear them on gamedays so they just collect dust honestly. If I had bought any of the QBs, they would likely already be at goodwill. Wouldn't want to keep a Rhule remnant.

Yeah the Titans are a well coached bunch. And have a defense getting better but are about to miss Henry's window. Mike V. is loved around the league and by the org/team. Can def see them crafting a reworked offense beyond Tannehill for him. To follow up to where they are this season after being the 1 seed last year, with that roster, is impressive. But I do feel they made some head scratchers this offseason.

You are a GREAT contributor here, but it's kind of a silly thing to bring up. He's not a first rounder, regardless of a random CBS guy having him in his mock. Moving along...
