I hadn't even heard the rumor that Brock was re-signed. Was a complete shock to me. I heard the crowd chanting for him, but I figured it was just a smart mark crowd being a smart mark crowd.

I'm also interested in The Rock's comment about being WWE Champion again. And it seems Punk/Jericho is set to continue past 'Mania, which is great. I didn't feel they did nearly as much as they could have promo wise leading up to Sunday night. Jericho pouring the beer on Punk was great, and then smashing it over his head... the best is yet to come with those two.

Probably my favorite moment of the night, though: when Brodus Clay came out to help Santino and the crowd chanted "FUNK-A-SAURUS! FUNK-A-SAURUS!" - fuging classic!

That crowd was the loudest crowd and the smartest with the chants I've seen in a long time. I'm surprised Dana White let Brock sign with WWE, since I think he had one fight left on his contract and I'd imagine a no compete clause in it. Vince blocked Brock from fighting after he left the WWE for a long time. Maybe Dana felt bad for him and agreed to not be a dick about it.

You just knew Vince wasnt going to let Brock win and win for a long run with him being a former UFC champ. Vince is known for burying guys once they sign to the WWE just to make a point. The UFC and WWE arent close to the same thing but their demographic is.

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      That's part of being patient too. Not rushing players into roles they aren't ready for. Make them earn it. If you convince yourself that "so and so" needs to start because they were a first round pick, even though they have done nothing to earn it, you have set up both team and player for failure. You can convince yourself all day long that "there is no substitute for game experience" but if the guy can't do his job in practice, he can't do it in a game. Not consistently, anyway.  Teams like the Steelers, the Ravens and the Packers ROUTINELY bench rookies to start off with and no one bats an eyelash. Even if the team is losing. Because that's what they do. They have set the precedent. The players have to show they are ready. Then they get their chance.

      Let me provide you with some food for thought. Before this "now era" of the NFL, QBs were allowed time to develop. Everyone from the GM to the fans had more patience. QBs were simply better in the old because they were afforded the time to sit, observe and learn. It's no wonder that guys we threw away, or simply didn't want, have had varying degrees of success elsewhere.  Some Huddlers were talking crazy about Jordan Love and Lamar Jackson---just crazy...

      I think the JAG debates are largely people having vastly different definitions of JAG.  The OG JAG LB debate was James Anderson.  And James Anderson is probably going to be ahead of Shaq on my alltime LB list (it's really close though).
