Really good draft class this year... 49ers are going to need it

Nobody in the general baseball audience cares perhaps, but there's been plenty of talk about it in more Saber based circles

A little part of me died reading the previous page. Just... no.

Oh, it wouldn't be a sports thread without Ry championing his Boston teams in the first 8th of a season. Only two games man. Pats look good but you know they won't steamroll everyone all season. The defense is too suspect.

Breakin necks and forgoing game checks

A likeable, well run Jets team that's winning? Oh, NFL.

They beat up on two horrible defenses

Which is what they require to win in the postseason

As a die hard Seattle hater, I still don't believe that. Too much voodoo devil magic with Pete Carroll run teams and they have some easier games coming up. Don't need to start 5-0 to be a top 4 NFC team this season.

He's already in Adidas commercials. Real kid. Very fast.

Well at least it looks like the NFC is wide open this year

The choice of "clunky white males" was sort of the point, right? It lampoons of both sides of the debate.

You break your arm, your bones, tissue, muscle heals. You injure your brain, you do a certain amount of irreversible, unfixable damage. There's a reason most of the diseases that we haven't yet figured out (Huntingtons, Alzheimers, ALS) are in the brain. More importantly though, the difference between the things you're talking about and football concussions is the magnitude of the force. That and exposure to those forces again much sooner after a concussion than you or I would.

I hope Mallex Smith moved towards top-25, but he's not a power guy so I doubt he gets much hype. It might be a down year for big prospect call ups considering how many of the top 20 were moved up this season.

In all fairness, even 50% would be a scary number.

Yeah about 50 yards

Hey my team is competing for pick #1

I meant that I had them both in one league. Admittedly poor wording.

At least Ortiz works at a Dunkin Donuts sometimes when the Sox suck. I love Dunkin. That's a check in my book.

Guess who started Julio and Hyde this week?

Trent Dilfer needs to learn to calm the fuck down. Was too excited about everything.

Easy for you to say. I'm over here pacing. Fuck the defense looks good with Bow back.

You have to give it to Ortiz, nobody visibly loads up to swing as hard as he does only to ground out 36% of the time.

I really want to root for the Bills. I just really don't know if I can root for Rex Ryan.

I'm interested.
