No worries, I get what your saying. I am not a huge proponent of trading up in general either especially when we were already so low on pics. I did like Aiyuk that much though. While the front office has been doing great collecting/finding talent they don't seem to value draft capital near as importantly as us draftnicks do and I think it will drive all of us alittle crazy every now and then.

nobody overrates draft picks quite like dudes on a message board lol

Football Sunday is back! LFG!

One way Shannys philosophy has kind of blow my mind since we’ve been here is how much stock he puts into the defensive line, bother interior and edge, and then how little he puts into the guard position. He clearly values tackles and the center position. One of his first moves was bringing in Richburg, then they drafted McGlinchey and traded for Trent Williams. It just seems counter intuitive to value one side of the trenches so much and then turn around and neglect the other side. Just a random thought. I was really hoping McKivitz would win that starting RG spot out of TC this year. I really hope we get to see him plugged in next to McGlinchey sooner rather than later.

This year, the NHL had a draftee named Gunnarwolfe Fontaine. Next year, there is a kid named Red Savage who will be drafted.

These are things that bring me joy.

Those must be user created players in an NHL 21 franchise mode...

I’m just saying, if we don’t see a Y-M-C-A style celly with George, Deebo, & Aiyuk throwing up the Y-A-C, I’m going to be a little let down.

The Ray's manager totally screwed them over. That was the only baseball game I watched this year, but man, what was he thinking pulling Snell?

Lake Show beeeeyatch!

Don't be a hater. I said nothing when the Dubs were doing their thing and collecting rings. And all these newfound Warriors fans came out of nowhere lol. But the trophy is back in So Cal where it belongs my friend.

I'm indifferent to the Dodgers. Congrats to them, they have a helluva a team. Hopefully when Cohen gets control over my Mets we can get our **** together and be back in the title hunt.

Underrated story is Tampa...I really wish they would have won. TBL won the stanley cup, TB loses to the dodgers in the world series, TB has to be considered the favorite to come out of hte NFC at this point in the NFL.

Ahhh yes, the delightful menace that is sports fandom gatekeeping. I'm sure you go back to the Showtime Lakers era yourself

I mean I have no problem with 'new' fandom coming from the youth who only know Magic Johnson through YT highlights. But grown men in their 40's, walking around with a Curry jersey NOW screaming "Dubs" when they were a proudly sporting a Kobe jersey 5 years ago is just cringe-worthy and happened far too often for my liking.

It might be a different experience on the West Coast but there was so much Warriror bandwagon fan-hoppping on the east coast , it was unbearable.

That's basketball. People are fans of players and not teams. That's just how it goes. It's a star driven sport and not a team sport, filled with mostly bandwagon fans for this reason. 

People just root for the stars they like, who change teams
