Comcast/NBC execs need to know by now that Peacock isn't gonna happen.  

But I guess they're trying again after Disney bought Comcast's (NBCUniversal's) remaining Hulu stake. 

So now NBC is trying their darnest to push Peacock and no one is biting.  They're gonna keep trying.  Prepare for more annoying sh*t

 

Two words about last night game. Taylor Swift. They banked on all the swifties paying for peacock to broaden the market. They didn’t give a poo about actual football fans.

It’s a much larger deal than Swift. People are overblowing how much the NFL and networks are hyping her or whatnot. So what, they show her in a booth like they do with owners for a few seconds during a game. It’s really not a big deal.

She’s become arguably the most successful music star in history from a monetary standpoint. She’s in that Garth Brooks/The Beatles/MJ tier when it comes to sales, tours and cultural impact. As a guitarist, not my cup of tea but I say, so what, it’s really overblown IMO.

Oh I agree on all fronts but I think you are underestimating swifties or what ever they are called.

I cut all my streaming services.  I may sign up for Apple when Masters of the Air comes on, but the cost of all of them was getting ludicrous. 

Also, at one point in time, boxing was one of the biggest sports in the US.  Millions watched Sugar Ray Leonard or Ali on network TV.   But all their main events were PPV.  Don't get me wrong, boxing had a lot of problems, but PPV is one of the reasons that it is no longer a major sport.  

NFL should take that lesson to heart. 

Yeah, but UFC essentially took boxing out didn’t?  And UFC uses essentially the same PPV format boxing did.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce

      Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
