WARNING... SOME NSFW SALTY LANGUAGE.

I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.

99.9% of these are staged. It actually happened one time many years ago and now it's a craze. It's not hard to relive a moment and pretend. And just like my farther-in-law said after the commercial of the new app/phone you can edit something out. You can't believe any photo you see.

It could be staged, but he did some damage to the mantel when the TV fell, and I'm sure the bottle he threw splashed on the walls as well. It appeared to be too nice of a house to do that in also. I did find it amusing none the less.

The Busch Light/Sarah McClachlan one was really funny. I also enjoyed the Will Ferrell GMC/Netflix one, the Breaking Bad popcorners one, the Ram EV one previously mentioned was funny.

That video was massively staged. It is just some BS to get attention. I have seen way better acting in an elementary school play.

A one and a two and a....



I imagine everyone defines hell differently, for me it's Lawrence Welk on repeat. 

My sister and I would stay with my dad's parents in St. Peter for 2 weeks every summer.  Those 2 Sundays (or was it Saturday?) were the worst of the year because we had to watch Lawrence Welk with them no matter what.  And I always preferred this old-timey group anyways:

As for the next SB show why not the Foos?  Spinal Tap? (will never happen but a girl can dream). I think Tay-Tay is inevitable and I will not watch. Kendrick Lamar? The Weekend? Lenny Kravitz and Stevie Wonder? Reunite Outkast?

I liked Rihana halftime show. The puffy dancers were great, and so many of them. I kept thinking -how can they remember all those moves?   
Breaking Bad was my favorite ad, casting was probably more expensive than the tv time.  I didn’t see some of the ads people are taking about. Tume ad that played a dozen times had no creativity, was forgettable and was annoying. They paid big $, it ran a bunch of times.

I spent 2 summers in Clearwater/Safety Harbor back in the 80's... 2 months in that hell hole. Twice.

It's to the point that spending a week down there in April will get my fill for many years to come.

I grew up in Brandon. People can’t believe I have no interest in going back. Summers are crazy hot and humid. We used to drive over to Clearwater beach and last maybe 2 hours cause the water is piss warm and offers no relief.

There’s also a yellow rating sticker still on the bottom left of the TV so they must have just bought it. I’m sure if it got 100K likes the TV cost is incidental to what you get paid by the platform.

Ravens are letting the market put the price on him. Look at the ARodg and DeShaun guaranteed money circus right now...it's a smart move on the Ravens. They COULD get him cheaper (relatively) than expected.

I don't think he's overrated, per say, but that injury sure didn't help his cause last season. I think he's top 5-6.

Who else were they going to get? There's the rub. Same thing Vikings had to do with Captain Kirk (FTR, still not a Kirk hater).

He really isn't.  People think he is because he runs well but he is a QB and he is a pretty average to almost mediocre passer.  He has broken 3k yards once.  And his playoff numbers are subpar.  

If you take away the running stats Lamar is basically Daniel Jones. (though he has way more TDs though the same amount of fumbles)  Hell in less seasons Jones has almost as many passing yards as Lamar.

Neither is worth what they are getting and neither will lead their teams anywhere.  

Geno Smith is cashing in but the risk is light.  Its a short term deal and they will likely draft a QB at 5 so they won't keep him long.

I kind of think that since the NFL doesn't value RBs anymore due to the fact that they get beat up and lose effectiveness that they beginning to apply that standard to mobile QBs as well.  I think Baltimore is happy to have Lamar Jackson near term but not as excited for five or six years down the road.  So I think Balt might be happy franchise tagging him for a year or two and then let him walk.

Supposedly he has been in close contact with the players union and they have been helping/advising him.

If the players union representation was any good, more players would use it.  A franchise QB trying to negotiate his own deal is a bad idea.

Lamar literally has no receivers and really never has had any. Bateman is always injured and that’s basically it. The guy is a good passer he just needs above average NFL talent to throw to and obviously he’s elite on his feet.

It would be cool to see him play in MN.. He is electric to watch, and he and Jefferson would be a hell of a dual threat. I am certain it wont happen but it would be cool.

I think Lamar is top 5-6. He is DEFINITELY needed on that Baltimore team. Look at his percentage of offense compared to the rest of the team...Now, in 5-6 years...who knows? Right now? Yeah.

How many QBs that play the game the way he does lasted long enough to reach sustained elite level status through the entirety of their "got paid" contract?  That team needs a lot more offensive pieces and the % of the cap he would demand - playing the position the way he does - is it worth the risk?

Yeah having receivers who can’t catch and not being a GM are his fault ?. You’ve got to be trolling

The ability to stay healthy for Lamar is his biggest issue. He's missed 9 games over the last two seasons. He is absolutely a top tier QB in this league when he's on the field and the fact that teams with QB situations as bad as some teams in the league have aren't interested in signing him is mindblowing.

They ran routes well and could catch the ball, if anything they’re a bit underrated because in the NFL you get a ton of top tier athletes that just aren’t that smart and flame out quickly at that position.

He scored 12 TDs last year in the first three games (10 passing + 2 rushing) and then scored only 8 more TDs his last eight games before finally calling it quits for the rest of the season.  I know he played hurt, but he went form incredible to average from a stats perspective. Is he completely healed?  How much do you pay to find out?

Might be a good idea to sign a one year contract and show you're back.

The decline in stats is also attributable to Rashod Bateman getting hurt. They were a very dynamic offense when he was in. When he got hurt, their top two WRs became Demarcus Robinson and Devin Duvernay. Duvernay is a very talented athlete but is still young and learning how to be an NFL WR. Neither of those guys is the type to take the top off the defense. 

Their pass catchers behind Bateman and Andrews are lackluster to say the least. Defenses know it and can adjust their gameplan accordingly, making it easier to bottle Lamar up. 

I think Lamar will end up signing the franchise tag and playing the year out. If he proves he can stay healthy and perform he'll get a big contract, from Baltimore or somebody else.

Haha, kind of a nice attribute to have being a professional WR.

ESPN's Dianna Russini reports "there's optimism in the Jets’ organization that they are on the brink" of acquiring Aaron Rodgers. 

Jets officials, including owner Woody Johnson, met with Rodgers in "extensive" talks this week, according to Russini, and Johnson left the sit-down "excited and satisfied" with Rodgers' potential fit in the Jets offense. Russini said the Packers and Jets "remain engaged in conversations about compensation and contract" and that "those conversation already started before the meeting." With the Packers reportedly ready to move on from their longtime quarterback, Rodgers could become a Jet in the coming days -- barring a last-minute change of heart for the mercurial QB. The Jordan Love era in Green Bay seems close at hand, and the Zach Wilson era in New York appears over.

Lamar won't get DeShaun or ARodg or Holmes money (and he shouldn't), BUT, he'll get at least Kirk money (he should). Add a bunch of Buxton clauses in there in case of injury, then yes, here's the money.

I’m not sure I think Stroud or Young is worth all that. I’m wondering if Carolina thinks they have to jump up to get Levis or Richardson. If I’m looking for a QB I’m thinking I’d rather be at the 5-7 pick and see who falls.
