  1. Smitty definitely wasn't a great teammate, but it's not like any of those WRs we had during those years went on to do anything else outside of Carolina. He was notoriously hard on the young WRs but on that particular "bad teammate" issue he may have been right. Those dudes just didn't want it. It wasn't a lack of talent, it was a lack of desire. From Colbert to Jarrett to LaFell to KB to Funchess. We had WR talent over the years, we just didn't have any talent that was hungry to be great. It wasn't a lack of drafting the right talent, it was that we drafted the wrong men.
  2. Yep. A big part of it is that we've always had a defensive focused coaching staff.
  3. It's just really bad. Jacking threes or driving and flailing. The traditional post game and midrange game is practically dead. Defense is hacking and grabbing counting on the refs not to be able to call it all and flopping if the offense makes any contact. Golden State ruined the game for the time being. You can't efficiently run that offense without some of the greatest shooters of all time sharing the court.
  4. Pretty unbelievable that we've really only drafted and developed three legit starting NFL WRrs in Smitty, Moose, and DJ in 30 years. We average one a decade.
  5. I honestly just don't find basketball all that entertaining these days without emotional attachment. Sucks, because basketball was by far and away favorite sport growing up. The modern version of the game just isn't very good if I'm being honest.
  6. I hope so. I'm hoping the staff sees some serious untapped potential in our current guys. We certainly seem to be operating as if they do.
  7. No. I've pretty much watched only UNC in basketball for a decade or so now. If UNC isn't playing I'm pretty much not watching.
  8. When you talk poo you deserve to get it back when you faceplant. UNC fans accepted that we sucked weeks if not months ago.
  9. I'm just making fun of the UVA fans for all the poo they talked then their team shits the bed in the tourney. It's hilarious.
  10. at UVA Their fans sure were squawking when they ended our tourney hopes then they go and lose to a 13 seed. They did win a championship with Bennett but other than that they're best known under him for putting viewers to sleep from boredom and being on the wrong side of historic NCAA tourney upsets. Nothing will ever top them getting throttled by a 16 seed. I always knew a 16 would beat a 1 eventually but I figured it'd be some crazy buzzer beater in OT or something and just feel overall flukey as hell. But no, that game looked like a typical 1 vs. 16 game, the roles were just reversed.
  11. If we can land a legit vet and take another promising WR in the draft then I'll fell okay at WR. Seems pretty clear that it's not going to be a great unit next year outside of some shocking development by players currently on the roster landing a steal in the draft, or swinging a surprising deal for a vet but maybe they at least won't be awful.
  12. Just drop it and move on. Good grief. If y'all want to argue about what grown ass adult choose to put in their bodies go to the TB.
  13. #1 overall pick at QB should net us at least one primetime game
  14. Don't make petty post reports while doing the same thing even worse was more of a PSA than a personal statement. But you're right, I should've framed that better.
  15. Just future advice, but if you're going to report a post for "personal attack" don't go on a ranting significantly worse personal attack yourself at the same time. Y'all knock it off. Take this to the TB.
  16. Nobody is trading anything for Ian Thomas. We probably told him he was getting released as a post June 1st cut if he didn't agree to a reduction and his agent probably told him "Bro, you're a vet min player on the FA market. Take the reduction".
  17. Here's what my good buddy hardcore Giants fan had to say
  18. Probably what Colts fans were saying when they saw Panthers fans shitting on Devin Funchess after they signed him.
  19. My good buddy hardcore Eagles fan never cared for this guy. This is what he sent me.
  20. I honestly don't care who the pick is as long as it's the guy that the football people want and Tepper stays out of it.
  21. The main problem with Pickett is that he just wasn't very good.
