I would absolutely LOVE to see him and Bundalo together - two versatile bigs in the DH offense would be beautiful to watch.
This dude specifically says someone close to the Creighton program. Listen, we’re all sharing crumbs of optimism, wherever we can find them. It’s part of the fun of this whole recruiting exercise, reading tea leaves. No one knows what’s legit and what’s not but usually where’s there’s enough smoke there’s fire. Just keeping it toked HS. Sometimes you feel like the warden of this asylum called the Boneyard.
I hear you on the combination being the strength. Maybe Coach B is working on the personality side of things a little bit more now that he's got a new female companion.
Or, the team got old.
They had their best draft classes after Pioli left.
Those were great picks. After 2017 not so much. Not nearly so much. The overall roster construction and free agency signings were much better in the early years.
Very bad picks in last several years before Brady left, but the 2020-2023 drafts were pretty good.
Very well said
I know this is painful for Patriots fans but Brady was 42 going on 43, the Patriots roster was thin, we saw how bad it was WITH Brady in 2019, they weren't going to rebuild for a 45 or 46 year old.
Both as a joke?
Brady the player is an all-timer. Great player with great accomplishments. Now this may be unpopular but as a person he is kind of unlikeable if you are not a Pats fan and it's not because of all the winning. He just comes off as awkward and trying too hard and it comes off a little forced and unnatural. Maybe it's his sense of humor or lack thereof. It almost reminds me of a less ridiculous Alex Rodriguez a little in the sense that he wants to be liked but something is just missing and people aren't buying it. I'm not a Pats fan but I am a Sox fan so I have no anti-Boston thing.
Part of Brady’s challenge is def that he tries a bit too hard and he’s too perfect on a cosmetic level. You can feel it in the booth. Most humans don’t relate to a dude that looks like a super model at 47. We want to see some flaws, some wrinkles, a love handle. The average guy at his age wants to feel like he can grab a beer with a guy, not worry that what he orders will be judged by a guy that eats avodacos all day.
As a Pats fan, this kind of stuff never bothers me. I appreciate Hurley, because he has the team playing so well and because he's nuts. I'm not sure I want to have a beer with him. Probably not. Same with Brady. I can see why you feel that way. I liked him because he was monomaniacal, and that's all I cared about. People in Boston complained about Belichick's attitude toward the press. Personally I loved it, but either way, I did not really care. Certainly not to complain about it for 20+ years like they do in Boston.
Money is not working against us, it’s not entirely helping us. But I get your point. Danny and this staff have broken the system. They are too good and too smart for anyone w deeper pockets. And in the end, in college, that still matters. We don’t need the top ranked player but this staff will undoubtedly always get who they need to continue this success. Fwiw, I think eventually w lose Kimani. I think Luke stays and is next coach in waiting.
Belichick is awesome, dude doesn't give a fark.
Well, that "golden age" lasted 20 years. I'll be into my 90's if this one goes that long.
