NFL Offseason, 2017

All sports. We don't even mind if its women's Curling or junior badminton. Although we won't have strong opinions on the latter.

Great article on why the Aguayo pick was destined to fail and how nobody in the NFL knows how to evaluate kickers.

Ever try to teach someone how to do something and they physically cannot do it, or have to find work around that impact the end product? You see the batted balls on tv but you do not see the shorter guys altering their arm angles and sacrificing accuracy trying to find lanes to deliver the ball.

We have a guy on the food truck who is constantly bending and fucking up the spatulas. It was frustrating and it took a bit to figure out that was what he needed to do to get leverage to smash the burgers, as the person who designed it is a foot taller and 100 pounds heavier.
A 6'3" QB is going to face a lot less physical problems on the field than a 6'6"+ QB with long legs and long arms that cause a delayed wind-up release. Low release points are also a constant problem with giants that negate about 4-5 inches off their height.

Future star of the Broncos offense, De'Angelo Henderson. Only fitting the year TD makes the Hall of Fame, another 6th round pick RB begins his ascent up the depth chart.

He made another great cut the very play before the 2nd gif that brought it to 1st and goal. He's already got a job and will probably be the #3 guy right off the bat.

ESPN just removed an Asian broadcaster from a University of Virginia football game this year because his name is Robert Lee.

That's actually all there is to the story.

Oh my god.

What? That's mental. Unless he's named after the General and is part of the confederacy.

Yeah. I replayed his highlights a few times. Those were some great cuts, but my knees tremble a bit when I watch him do it.

The unsung moments from Charles were the blocks he picked up, and giving the Packers DE an APA clothesline from hell.

If he was healthy his whole career, he would be in the GOAT talk.

I love it when Denver picks up a free agent who still has a little gas in the tank, a guy I respected the hell out of but watched him demolish us for so long. Manning was one guy, now Jamaal is another. I would totally feel bad for the K.C. fans because K.C. was usually the division rival I didn't hate like I do Oakland Las Vegas and Sandy Eggo Loss Angeles, but they have this weird, jealous hatred of Denver or something and they threw a giant fit when Jamaal went to Denver. Then when he rubbed it in and said he always wanted to play here was the icing on the cake.

A successful Chiefs season is sweeping the Broncos. They don't care if it ended in a first round exit, last season was equivalent to a Super Bowl for those cucks.

TJ wasn't going to be re-signed next year no matter what but the timing of this is bad.
