No, they are the money drains.

They lost three of the five from their starting lineup in the championship game, along with their six man, so there were going to be some teething problems. They came into the Senior Night with an outside chance at a share of the regular season title in the ACC. Oh, and before you come and say something about the ACC being weak this year, Maryland is the only Big Ten team with more wins than Virginia at this point.

... you could always stick with the Hoos ... we give you good basketball!

no no, that would be your owner.

Amongst other options: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Smith_(footballer,_born_1945) Just because he's British, played a completely different sport, and well, dead ... he could still do a better job at running the franchise than Grunfeld did. Given their defensive woes to date, perhaps bringing him back from the great beyond as a coach in place of Brooks wouldn't be a bad idea either. (obviously meant Tommy Sheppard)

(I couldn't not make fun of the Wizards on my return) Just as a point of reference: yes, they beat your over. However, with 75% of the season over, they just got above your threshold at 23 wins. As another point of reference: They are 4.5 games back from the 8 seed. They're also 4.5 games ahead of the Knicks, who are the 3rd worst team in the East. The only reason they are in "contention" is because the East so top heavy. Making the playoffs as the 8th or even the 7th seed (the Nets only have a 0.5 game lead on the Magic, so I suppose it's possible) would be devastating to the franchise's long term health. The will be fed into the buzzsaw that is Milwaukee or (maybe, if they get really lucky) Toronto and end up with a mid round 1st. No shot at the lottery, no top player, just another guy. Maybe Tommy Smith is able to work magic from the 15th or 16th pick, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Well, given that the Skins have given Trent the green light to look for trades, I think we can assume he's gone no matter what. In that case, the question is what compensation do they get for him. That all said, I'm not sure I would go defense-defense in this particular case since they would have a glaring hole at left tackle. If Simmons is gone by 10 (and all projections have that as the case), then I think you would have to consider one of the two remaining tackles.

Everyone right now: In a couple of days:

If I were Dan, I would simply have said: "Jordan, I love you too much to let you keep playing. If you want to go somewhere else and play, so be it, but as much as it pains me to say this, I cannot let you out onto the field again because I want you to live your life after football."

[points to @Thaiphoon and @naptownskinsfan] You want to talk to those two.

I don't think there's enough therapy in the world that deal with the ramifications of that ...

*points to @e16bball* He's tanned, rested, and ready.
