I wrote about the Western Conference Finals, a playoff series so colossal that somehow it feels like there is even more than a trip to the Finals on the line. https://t.co/IIRsor5G8g
This #Bengals’ defensive line is stacked and deep - and it’s something this team has been missing.
It will be a game-changer with the potent offense they have.
While it reads as a 1 year extension worth $28M, that’s not the full story.
Lawrence is owed $20M in 2026; $22M in 2027; and now $28M in 2028. That breaks down as $70M over 3 years for an AAV of $23.333M for a 28 year old game wrecking DT.
Compare that to another player (older) wanting an extension. Again, just a great move by Cincinnati.
3 years of team control for one of the best DTs in the league and their average pay is only $23.333M. Interested to see the breakdown of the 1 year extension.
There simply cannot be a negative spin on this.
I was on the phone with a GM less than an hour ago running through top 10 scenarios. The way we had it going, we both said, “the bengals are screwed.” Well, not anymore. This trade makes a ton of sense for them.

"Capitalism created the possibility of the win win win. It used to be a zero sum game where somebody won, somebody else lost.
The biggest mistake people make, intellectuals in particular, they still think we're in a zero sum world. They're obsessed with some billionaires because Bernie Sanders thinks that Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk somehow stole the money from the people.
They don't understand that it's this prosperity machine that's creating more, not just for those billionaires, but for everything that they're touching. They're creating value for their customers, they're creating value for their employees. Their suppliers are flourishing, their investors are seeing their capital go up. It can be reinvested and compound.
All philanthropy ultimately comes from business. That's where the profits are.
Where does all the taxes come from? It ultimately comes from business as well.
This is the engine that's lifting humanity out. The entrepreneurs are the drivers of that engine. Somebody like Elon Musk, he gets a very, very, very tiny sliver of the value that he creates for the whole world."

QB recruiting has been a massive program problem for Kentucky. What we saw in the last 24 hours with Matt Ponatoski is why this flaw should no longer be an organizational weakness.
The buck stops with Will Stein -- and that's a good thing.

Based on Horton’s sharp 3.47 ERA and Hancock’s 4.48 ERA—with both pitchers trending toward low run output—you’ve got a strong case for Under 12.5 total runs. In their last 30 games, it’s hit 24‑6‑0 (80%) with Chicago averaging 4.8 runs and Seattle 3.9. 📉 Expect a pitcher’s duel at Wrigley.
