This is an awesome breakdown. Been waiting for something like this.
Super nerdy, but worth it to explain one of the strangest “did he/didn’t he” kicks I’ve ever seen.
@FabFiveFreddi@ThePoniExpress It’s entirely possible they didn’t assess his value correctly. But simply not meeting Porter’s demands isn’t good evidence of that.
Because you jerks won't stop asking, here's the SP+ top 50 without any preseason projections. I'm definitely here for top-2 Utah, top-16 New Mexico, NDSU and JMU (GAMEDAY TO ALBUQUERQUE FOR UNM-NDSU, PLEASE) and top-40 Georgia State (and barely-top-50 Michigan).
@FabFiveFreddi@ThePoniExpress They have the highest paid defense in the league, what makes you think they’ve been particularly financially disciplined?
@ThePoniExpress Maybe they should try some Madden addicts. Madden tells you who the top 100 players on, maybe send a few messages out and pick their brains a bit.
@FabFiveFreddi@ThePoniExpress It’s a capped league, money you throw at one player to show him you respect him as much as the Titans respect their CB is a money that can’t be spent improving your team elsewhere.
Financial discipline is how you field a good team.
Outbidding the Titans is how you suck.
@jmcc2424@ThePoniExpress From the Steelers point of view, it’s not about morality, it’s about whether they want to tell the other 52 guys on their roster that lying is the best way to negotiate with them, you get the behavior you incentive, not incentivizing this crap is more important than having 1 cb.
@NoMrBody1@ChrisMuellerPGH Yeah, Rodgers “it’s always someone else’s fault” routine is extremely tired. That’s a terrible example of professionalism for a hall of fame player to be setting for younger teammates.
@ChrisMuellerPGH@NoMrBody1 Seems like they should be seeing if anybody want to give them anything (really ‘anything’) for Ramsey.
Seems like there are several bad culture guys making a lot of money they need to move beyond.
@BreidenFehoko He’s free to decline it if he doesn’t think that represents what he worth, we have different definitions of disrespectful though. That represents more money in 1 year, than nearly every hall of fame player made their entire career. It represents generational wealth. Spare me.
@DKThomp Does discussing class material with your classmates, TAs, or professors ‘interfer with thinking’?
It actually obviously does, but not obviously negatively.
It’s lazy to assume that discussing class material with an entity that has memorized the internet and is endlessly patien
I couldn’t love this more… keep proving it for the rest of the guys who can play in pads, but don’t “look the part” in shorts!!
When will those in power understand: “if you can see it, you can see it” (no matter how tall) & no matter how tall you won’t be able to see at times, so you have to understand it!
