Yeah, that's what people like Alex Jones say when they're slinging mud at the wall like a meth fueled chimp. The vast majority of conspiracy theories are complete BS but inevitably a small percentage will end up being at least partially true. The problem with conspiracy brain is latching onto all of them and then spiking the football when the blind squirrel finds a nut. It's be like bragging about going 1 for 20 from the free throw line. Yeah, you made a free throw but my god you shot 5%.

Conspiracy brain is real and it doesn't make you smart.

I wouldn't call indulging from time to time being a "cokehead".

Most of it is made in China but Mexico is ramping up.

There's a lot of fake pharmaceuticals out there too. Don't buy those things off the street. It very well may not have played a role in this case but pain killer addiction is low key a serious issue in football. Football is hell on the body and a lot of these guys end up with problems trying to play through the pain. Brett Favre was probably the most high profile case.

He probably bought fake pills off the street.

I wouldn't do anything off the street right now. Wanna smoke weed? Grow it. Wanna trip? Grow mushrooms. Wanna rail a line? Go lie to a doctor and get you an Adderall prescription.

I don't think it's fair to act like Bene just fell off a cliff because he turned out not to be good. That injury ruined him.

Yeah, it's not if it's when. It's gonna happen.

There's an even bigger problem lurking further north. The Cascadia Subduction Zone. When that thing pops it's pretty much game over for the entire coastal Pacific Northwest. Portland, Seattle, Vancouver. They're basically washed off the map.

We're already on a three way. Tepper and Rhule are straight raw digging us.

I honestly can't imagine still thinking Darnold might be the answer as an NFL starting QB. That's a complete disconnect from reality.

As long as we suck at QB we're going to be connected with virtually every QB available. Just the way it is.

If we're going to do it let's just get it over with and do it because this is starting to feel like the Watson saga version 2.0.

The Observer is trash but business is business. Yeah, all things being equal I'd rather cover a team I'm a fan of, but offer me significantly more money and a better professional opportunity to cover another team and I'm gonna be gone. Just the way it is. If you're an engineer who grew up a Ford fan and go to work for them but GM offers you 50% more to work for them you'd be crazy to turn it down.

I think this guy has been banned more than chuck at this point. I can't even remember what his original username was at this point. It's gotta be 20+ deep at this point.

If it was then I think it would've already happened. Truth be told I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't a ploy by the Browns to try to get us to blink. That would be a very Browns thing to do. You want to throw up a false rumor smokescreen and you pick the team that the GM of the team you're trying to bluff just came from recently where he undoubtedly still has close contacts and can likely pretty easily find out if it's pure BS.

Probably both. Honestly, journalism has taken such a massive hit with the rise of the internet that every position is probably very competitive. That isn't exactly a market conducive to great pay either. Seems like the only way to make bank as a "journalist" these days is to rave like a maniac on cable news.

Houston is a much bigger market than Charlotte though.

Stew never really got his wheels under him. Best vs. best I'd take Davis over everyone on the list outside of CMC. I could hear an argument for DeAngelo. There's no argument for Stew IMO.

Easily. Davis is the 2nd best RB on the list IMO. I'd take CMC at his best over Davis but CMC better get over the injury bug quick if he's going to have any shot of having a better career.

Cam ($5) Davis ($1) Smitty ($5) KB ($2) Samuel ($1) Since he wasn't on the list, I guess he's free so my TE is Shockey. I still have a buck in my pocket, so give me Robbie Anderson just so I have the pleasure of cutting him.

If he's released this would probably be the only place he could likely enter camp as the starter.

You don't have to be rich but it is certainly extremely helpful. I bet the average net worth of the families of PGA golfers is SIGNIFICANTLY higher than that of most if not all other professional sports. Golf is expensive.

Your personal experience isn't universal. That seems to be the disconnect you're having here. Based on what I can gather, it seems to be quite the exception in fact.
