**Thread. Instead of continuing to shout into the Abyss about consensus boards, I thought I would try to add some actual data to this conversation. The following thread is using Pro Football Reference's wAV stat, and @ArifHasanNFL 's consensus rankings....

Fox can’t be on the floor right now. He’s been terrible in these moments all series

Since 6pm, I have been in non moving traffic within a mile of the Patriots stadium. I’m close now but some people are definitely missing this match. Is this normal here? Crazy and frustrating

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

Is Paraguay really bad because I have NEVER seen USA look this good…

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

My first of what will probably be many dumb soccer takes over the next month: it really seems like our coach doesn’t care very much…

[Alex @ajak1033]

The Spurs know how to TAKE the lead, they just don't know how to HOLD the lead. And that's really the most important part of the lead: the holding

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

When it’s your year lol

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

I guess 28-3 is worse. But this is right there

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

This would be the biggest comeback/collapse in the history of sports?

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

Oh..my..God

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

I don’t think that wemby elbow was intentional but at this point I don’t know what’s keeping New York from brining in someone to clothesline him

[𝗙𝗜𝗔𝗚𝗢 🇩🇪 @fiago7]

Can anyone tell me more about this mushroom house in the middle of downtown Chicago I am amazed

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

@TommyK_NFLDraft Congrats man!

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

Lame take and completely misses the point. We don’t back individuals buying stocks but we do ban insider trading. Same logic should apply to sports betting

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

I'm all for second chances but this is the wrong decision. You have to have a ZERO tolerance for betting on the sport you participate in. He should be banned for a year and it feels like this decision was motivated by "Texas Tech being good at football is good for Lubbock"

[Ari Meirov @MySportsUpdate]

A surprise: Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby has been granted the injunction he requested by a judge in District Court in Lubbock County, Texas, per @PeteThamel.

Sorsby is now expected to be eligible for the 2026 college football season and will not have to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft.

Unfathomably bad base running there by Alcantara.

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

This is heartbreaking

[Chicago Bulls @chicagobulls]

We are devastated by the passing of 3x NBA Champion and beloved broadcaster Stacey King.

[Awful Announcing @awfulannouncing]

West Virginia advances to Omaha and the Men's College World Series for the first time in program history.

Here's how 'Country Roads' looked on the ESPN broadcast.

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

Wemby has had a shitty game but that’s a potentially iconic NBA finals moment. Only person in the history of the NBA that can make that and-1 without dribbling

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

If the Cubs turn their season around I want this rage thread to get all the credit

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

I really don't find anything about the Cubs team enjoyable, and I am becoming more open to the idea that drastic change is needed. There isnt really anything this team does particularly well and this is year 6 of a rebuild

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

PCA and Michael Busch are really good, young building blocks but outside of that I dont know what has you really excited about the future. And I don't think doing the same thing and expecting different results is the answer

[Matt Philbin @NFLDRAFTBLOG]

I think Craig Counsel is a good manager. He's also the highest paid manager in the sport-and doesnt do anything special to justify that salary.
