@minakimes No matter how many times I watch this video (and it has been many, many times through the years), I ALWAYS crack up when you first see the swarm of goalies 😂

@metaboss84 @BrettKollmann This is absolutely and entirely legitimate to be fair lol. South America has its share of sketchy stadium interactions at times too. I guess I'm curious to hear from global places what the streetside manner is like, as I think it's a fair call that in-stadium is pretty civil here

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@BrettKollmann Yeah the more I think about it, this is a minor directional school making the Sweet 16

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@BrettKollmann I think this was closer to something like a low-teen seed making the sweet 16 in March Madness. Or maybe in NFL terms if a team like the Browns made the wild card during the pre-Garrett days of the late 00s, early-mid 10s.

@BrettKollmann Not sport-related, but Monty Zander does AMAZING long-form content critiquing and analyzing video games. His video essays are incredibly detailed and compelling work.

@BrettKollmann Sweet Jesus, as a MSP-based Colts fan, this would be an absolute disaster

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@BrettKollmann I'm fine to keep dunking PFF output in perpetuity for getting rid of actual talent and content producers.

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@BrettKollmann When people bashed Dante Moore for going back to school, I found it so backwards. "He'd go #2, he can't do better than that" is so myopic. The goal isn't to get drafted highly, the goal is to have a long and successful career. If Draft night is your finish line, you fail yourself

@chosen8075 @BrettKollmann **not saying I think this trade will/should happen, but any trade to get something for a piece that has zero place in your shirt or long term plans is good business. Even tiny comp is better than wasting a roster spot on someone who isn't part of your plans in any way.

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@chosen8075 @BrettKollmann I would argue that AR had higher peaks, more often, than JJ

Both are plagued w/ their own issues, but I think weve seen "THIS is what your success looks like" on the field more from AR.

But no doubt both of their stories have ended w/ their OG teams. Any assets back help MN/IND

@chris_hendley @billbarnwell @DMRussini Those are not guarantees. DR said the deal was $88M that could go up to $100M (which is the big number everyone is talking about), but she didn't say it was $88M in guarantees.

@KBowen1070 I think people who want to fire Steichen have had the Titans next door and learned absolutely nothing from them.

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@HolderStephen I love sports, but somehow fandoms are simultaneously both the best and undeniably the absolute worst part about them lol

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

Holy OL regression, Batman

@KBowen1070 Not really looking for realistic, just fun water cooler talk/Madden mentality:

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@KBowen1070 I seem to remember Ballard liking Bradley Chubb when he was coming out of NC State if Q wasn't going to be there. Think he's still their flavor?

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@BenjaminSolak In good news, suddenly everyone who hasn't been a politician will stop voicing political opinions. Also, movie critics can only be former actors, so that's good, Denzel.

I, personally, am a lazy fatass, so I will not acknowledge criticism from those without that experience 😂

[Stan Cal @stan_cal]

@HolderStephen @RomeovilleKid Money is on "these b$$$$es can't cover me"

I'm not pumping him up, I literally am just guessing that that's what the comment was 😂
