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

@BillSimmons @kevinwildes @NathanCHubbard @jowrotethis This is one of the best episodes of all time

@BillSimmons @kevinwildes The Punishment Reward System for the half-baked idea “Life-Time Learning” is obviously a sports based punishment. You get a A you can go to pats games, B watch on TV, C or lower you lose YTV Quad Box access. 🤣🤣

@flasportsbuzz How long before the optimism wavers and we can finally start chanting: #TankForTuasReplacement

After what @KirkHerbstreit and @espn did to @FSUFootball and Mike Norvell in 2023, I don’t want to hear a single person say @OleMissFB should be in the @CFBPlayoff
The committee should see this for what it is a significant reason this team was successful is now gone @dannykanell

The Miami Dolphins shall henceforth be referred to as the Miami Tuna Cans. Absolute trash team and miserable franchise does not deserve a cool name.

[Dr. Chris Ince @Chris_Ince]

Sort of annoying when the NYT Connections picks a theme where each component is in each of the four other categories, but it’s not quite so obvious that it’s what they’ve done.

Additional words in Batman movie titles? Sorry, nope, one guess gone.

[Nicholas Cartossa @NickCartossa]

@MiamiRich38 @OmarKelly If you had the next Josh Allen, I could see that. I haven’t seen much from the biggest names in this group to take that kind long term approach. The smarter investment is to build the trenches and strike gold in the better QB class in the 2027 draft.

[Nicholas Cartossa @NickCartossa]

@OmarKelly Not to mention, very few of the QBs in this class have been very impressive. So far Beck, who has the best resume seems the only enticing player.

[Nicholas Cartossa @NickCartossa]

@OmarKelly It makes very little sense to draft a quarterback here while still having Tua on the books for $50M+ next season. Better to draft best available (Bain or Miami or Utah’s OT).

Full rebuild has to start with the trenches which have been abysmal during the last 7 years.

This is the roster Chris Grier built.

On last night's Bill Simmons Podcast, @BillSimmons and @TheCousinSal brainstorm new nicknames for Mike McDaniel.

[Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley]

If the last 25 years have taught the Dolphins and their fans nothing else, it should be this: Unless you have a generational quarterback, you must try to improve at that position every single offseason.

College football gets it. The NFL should too.

[Barry Jackson @flasportsbuzz]

I can't believe the Dolphins were 3 games up on the Bills 21 months ago, with the sense the teams - and perhaps the QBs - could go toe to toe for years. Sadly, very fleeting and a mirage.

[Nicholas Cartossa @NickCartossa]

Not to get ahead of ourselves here but Stephen Ross needs to be prepared to throw an obscene amount of money (25-30M/yr for 4-5 years) at any of the following:

-McVay (Contract expires in 2026)
-Saban (reunion GM/HC)
-Belichick (GM/HC)

Starting this school year: Free breakfast. Free lunch. No questions asked. 

That’s how we set our kids up for success.

[Nicholas Cartossa @NickCartossa]

@KyleTheBrokeBoi @flasportsbuzz True, but we are already paying him anyways. Why not give him a shot?
