Do Hard Things

[Drew Forrester @itsahooded4iron]

Bad situation in Baltimore.

A lot of the blame goes to the process and the wonky, weird way the NFL does free agency. No deal should EVER be announced until the physicals are done and everything's signed.

Now you have the Raiders unable to pay Crosby... (cont., 1/2)

Mike Tomlin reacts to John Harbaugh's firing:

"I just have so much respect for Harbs. Our stories will forever be interwoven. ... In terms of him being let go, unfortunately, I just think it's a component of today's sport culture. ... I just think it's a larger example of today's sport culture in terms of not a lot of patience and the entertainment component of what it is that we do. I'm sure we all would like to be Don Shula and Tom Landry, but I think those days are gone."

Genuine follow-up question:

Are you asking specifically why rich people want to play or what so many people, including the rich, want to play at some point in their life?

[BSOLZ @BSOLZ_]

Genuine question:

What is it about golf that makes so many rich people love playing it at some point in their life?

@NFL_DovKleiman you’re a scumbag

Legendary: Chargers star tackle Rashawn Slater finalized his divorce from his wife recently.

Today, Slater signed a $144 MILLION contract extension with the team, including a $29 million signing bonus.

Talk about good timing 👏👏

@AdamSchefter Nice to see I’ll have 3 Sunday Nights free to do something else this coming season

The Colts apologized to Tyreek Hill for a now-deleted video.

"We removed our schedule release video because it exceeded our rights with Microsoft and included an insensitive clip involving Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill. We sincerely apologize to Microsoft and Tyreek," the team said in a statement to ESPN on Thursday.

@BFW Based on your list, I think you agree that the SEC has the most toxic fan bases…making it the most toxic conference fan base. Which I think we all knew cleared any other conference. Just an observation🤙

Sincerely, your (apparently toxic) Iowa Hawkeye fan.

@minakimes In terms of what he meant to the organization and the valuable edge and unforgettable moments he gave us, yes this is great tone that points out exactly that. “Singing the praises” is a bit too strong to describe the rhetoric used here by EDC. Well done in my opinion.

[Sean Salisbury @SeanUnfiltered]

If this is how we are going to do college football, then they should be able to cut players any time they want, attach buyout numbers to every player, and put a salary cap on the money available in the portal. Time to give these players a taste of reality. Also, need to tie academic progress and performance with their ability to get any money. We no longer have college sports!

Nothing to see here, please move on ...

NHL embracing the violence in their sport and making things competitive and actually matter.

NFL take notes.

NBA…try to be less pretentious.

Only 4 picks all year…don’t care if they were all his fault

[nick wright @getnickwright]

Lamar threw 4 picks all year, and Ravens media would tell you literally none of them were his fault.

So what do we make of Lamar already having a pick & a self inflicted fumble?

Just bad luck.

Or maybe, just maybe, I’ve been on to something all along?

#Vikings S Harrison Smith says the NFL should keep its current playoff format, rewarding division winners the first 4 seeds:

“Win your division, get a home game. Thats the NFL. Thats how it’s done in the NFL, that’s how it should stay.��

[Brady Meinders @MeindersBrady]

Christ, just tell your Front Office to make a blockbuster trade for a Franchise QB…that is quite literally what you are missing. And, imo, you need to find a stud OC…not Arthur Smith.

I’m fucking sick of this. Go Steelers. We need to change fire Tomlin

[nick wright @getnickwright]

Great game by Henry, obviously.

More importantly, the first playoff game of Lamar’s career where he’s looked like “Regular Season Lamar” from the opening snap & overall his second good playoff game ever (‘23 vs HOU).

Great sign as the Ravens look awesome heading to Buffalo.

[NFL on Prime Video @NFLonPrime]

The @Ravens are hyped and ready for the #NFLPlayoffs

What an incredibly tunnel visioned take…

[John Ziegler @Zigmanfreud]

Congratulations everyone who wanted this 12-team playoff, you somehow managed to make the two biggest upset losses of the regular season COMPLETELY meaningless, and probably helpful to the teams which got beat…

Oh, and neither finalist even played a conference title game!
😂🤮
