Well, it is gamble on his part. He is building up a nice history of leg injuries and once those begin, there will be more to follow. However, if he can play the full season, get those 100+ points that we all know he can get, then ka-ching. But if he can't, oh boy, he left a ton of money on the table.

The Buffalo Bills were down to the Balmer Ravens 40-25 with only 4 minutes left to play in the game. You'll never guess what happened next...

I think they're just scared of the DOJ that is a) just a personal sue machine for Trump and 2) just a bottomless pit of tax money to pursue those whimsical lawsuits.

As a Pack fan, this whole circus is pretty hilarious and kind of reminiscent of the Prime circus that rolled into Boulder a few years ago just to have pretty meh teams. But hey, lotsa merch being sold which, in the end, is all that really matters.

2 first rounders? I'd say that's a good haul for the Cowboys.

I haven't listened to that one yet, but the guys do talk about things. Mostly about coming up in baseball, but if they're enough of a character, they'll get into the good stories.

He's been awesome for the Hurricanes and the Caniacs. Our team is now a perennial playoff monster that just hasn't been able to win it all, but man, it was a dark journey to get here. I don't remember the 20teens and nor do I want to. Absolute dreck. Also, he could've been more like David Tepper. whew!
It seems that he has a thing for teams that are red, black, and white and have cyclone-shaped logos.
