Take time to watch the interview. It is pretty revealing and you'll get a kick out of it. Yes, his hands look huge, which is a good thing when playing in a cold climate. Brett has large hands like that. If you see Aikman his hands are big claws too. Most QBs do.

Stearns has to fix this pen or this season is a lost cause IMO.

This isn't a bad idea...

Goodell is the owners yes man. If the owners were unhappy with what he is doing he'd be out the door pretty darn quick. This inane idea is nuts. They don't give a horses' back end about the players safety - it all about the almighty dollar. Their stupidity is going to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Perhaps it is time for a fire sale...?

I did say "was". But in his heyday he was an absolute monster.

It will be interesting to see how you'll do without Gronk. He was almost impossible to stop.

I agree, it made it more entertaining but it does kinda screw it up if you want to compare it to prior years.

Did we stink out the joint right before the All-Star Break last year?

We were wondering about that last night. And one of the announcers said this year had a record number of homers but if they aren't waiting for the ball to land then this "record" is bogus IMO. I'm glad Yelich wasn't in it screwing up his sore back.

I don't know if we all suck but we all are beating up on each other seeing how close the Central race is right now. It may go right down to the wire.

It is so hard to say with a new HC and so many changes in the coaching staff. If we aren't devastated by injuries this defense might be pretty fun to watch. I like the additions on that side of the ball. I think AR and MLF will get along fine but it might take time for the offense to gel with all the new terminology and schemes. I'm guessing 9 wins and perhaps a WC berth.

Isn't it the goal to find the player no matter what round we find him in? There are many examples of players taken in later rounds (or not drafted at all) who become fine players or end up in the HOF. Hawk is vilified for not being the second coming of Brian Urlacher because he was taken so high. He was steady Eddie if nothing else. How many guys have we taken high never fulfill their potential because they couldn't stay on the field? Martinez is a fine player who we found in the 4th. We found a great one that late in Bak who is now considered one of the best LT in the game.

I'm a Brewer fan and I'm not happy he is participating in this spectacle at all.

I know Shaw has been struggling so I hope a stint in AAA will fix what is ailing him. Now lets get a couple of arms...
