Mr. Scot

Again, not getting my hopes up. Not even allowing myself to be excited about the potential... ... No, seriously

I don't wanna get my hopes up. I don't. ... I really don't

Opinions on our two entries? (or any of the others)

The toughest job draft evaluators have Is not predicting How good someone is going to be, but how long they can stay that good.

This is a memorable quote

Expect it likely means the draft coverage will be tak n over by ESPN personalities... ...which sucks because I much prefer the existing NFL Network coverage.

Got to talk to Tiny Lister once back when I worked for AT&T. He was a nice guy.

The team signed undrafted rookie JJ Weaver from Kentucky. The 25-year-old Weaver played six seasons in college (with injury waivers), and had 21.5 sacks. He was a three-time team captain for the Wildcats. To make room for him on the roster, the Panthers released outside linebacker Amare Barno. Barno, a sixth-round pick in 2022, tore his ACL late in the 2023 season and began last year on the physically unable to perform list. He had 3.0 sacks in three seasons, appearing in 29 games. Sad to see. He seemed to have a lot of potential when he was drafted. Injuries really derailed him though.

Off topic (apologies) but big... Posted a thread in the lounge

Seeing reports that Hulk Hogan has passed. Feels like he took my childhood with him

Meanwhile in Cleveland...

Houdini or Cena?

Eisen is already rejoining ESPN. His daily show is headed to ESPN Radio (with a corresponding live stream on ESPN+)

From the article: (A)ccording to sources briefed on negotiations, ESPN and the NFL are inside the 5-yard line on another ground-breaking deal for ESPN to acquire NFL Media, the arm of the league that focuses on content and runs the NFL Network. The deal, though different from the way the league and the all-sports network deepened their ties in 1987, comes as ESPN makes its programming available in a direct-to-consumer product this fall. ESPN is hyping this upcoming iteration as “The Next Era,” at a price of $29.99 per month. While a contract between ESPN and the NFL is not signed, the two sides have been closing in on talks that first began four years ago, heated up a little more than a year and half ago and now are the closest they have ever been, with the league even informing its owners they may be needed for a vote on it early next month, as first reported by Sports Business Journal.

Don't think I'm gonna be a fan of this idea

Yeah...ouch Hate that. He's a full throttle guy, always gives his best. They said the door is open for him to return but after that long a stay in the protocol, I'd have to think it might be time to start thinking about retiring.

Was talking about 2003

The beginning of a very special and amazing season...

It's a new day for him...

In a word...no (there are actually several other words that come to mind, but I won't post those right now)

You're confusing it with "Leave skid marks' 🫥

Yeah, sorry but if you don't get this one, you deserve to be drummed out of Panther fandom

Boy, did we miss him

He switched careers and joined the WWE. From what I understand, he's currently teaming with Kofi Kingston
