Guice is overrated anyhow...sucks because now that's gonna drive up the cost of players I want...

Saquon Barkley's first touch as pro was a 40-yard run after being contacted behind the line. Woo.

#Browns DE Carl Nassib’s grandma would like to wash his mouth out with soap. That’s after his “Hard Knocks” expletive-laced business speech.

Apparently there was a scuffle at the Jaguars practice this weekend. In itself, that isn't really remarkable, but Jalen Ramsey threatening the journalist in a tweet was...never change Jags.

Free Bud Light when (if) Browns get first victory.

Little NFL trivia if we want it...

Drew Brees is going to the HOF soon enough...that will give Purdue three HOF QBs (Len Dawson and Bob Griese)...what school is currently the only one that can claim three QBs in the HOF...?

[tifosi77]

I was going to vote Notre Dame, then I Googled it and was wrong. I now know the answer, but as I cheated I will not spoil the game.

Edit: And I will say I regard two of the three QBs as dodgy HOF entries.

[Dickie Dunn]

Pitt. Obviously. Marino, Tino, spot reserved for Nathan J. Peterman.

Bama. Namath, Starr, Stabler.

4 when Orton formally retires too.

Gonna go Bama. Was between them, UCLA and LSU

[mikey]

Yup, Bama takes it.

UCLA has Aikman and I think Bob Waterfield...

My initial instinct was Pitt because of how many great QBs game from Western PA...but alas, only Marino went there...

So for the first time in like 5-6 years I'm getting back into fantasy football this year. Does anyone have any good source material in terms of drafting/etc.?

[mikey]

Everyone strives for consensus among free material...so it's all relative garbage...

[shafnutz05]

Honestly, I use the free stuff on Fantasy Pros and then google the Rotoworld stuff. Everything beyond that is a crapshoot, aside from just being aware of injuries and whatnot.

[Freddy Rumsen]

I always draft wr's and tight ends on bad teams that no one pays attention to. They always get good fantasy numbers.

Jalen Ramsey should be drug tested immediately, because he’s lost his **** mind.

[tifosi77]

He just do what he gotta do.

Thought this was gonna be about that girl he was creepin on...

Watched a video of Max Kellerman and Stephen A. Smith debating whether Eli or Ben was more clutch in a need-one-win scenario. Max was hardcore Eli.

1) I was sort of sad to recall that I enjoyed MK on the radio in LA;
2) SAS is a dope;
3) Ben has more playoff wins than Eli has starts;
4) Eli only has four playoff starts in non-SB years, where his record is 0-4;
5) Ben also has four one-and-done playoffs;
6) If you take out the four one-and-done years and the two SB championship years from each, Ben still has 8 playoff wins;

So, Mr Kellerman, if you need a guy to win you one game, maybe you take the guy who's gotten out of the first round more than twice.

[mikey]

Just take the more talented, more multi-dimensional player...that's Ben. There's no need for any of the bullet points...

Ben Roethlisberger: "Decent." "It's not Big Ben, it's [Antonio Brown]. Big Ben slings the ball a lot of the time. He just slings it, and his receivers go get it... I played him twice last year, and he really disappointed me."

So can we expect AB to come out today on social media and blast Jalen Ramsey, call him a clown, and defend his teammate/QB/partial meal ticket??? Yeah, I kinda doubt it too.

[NTP66]

Who the hell knows. Also, with regards to the children's hospital thing, I saw this on AB's Twitter:

Besides the fact we called in to let them know when I was showing up people say anything on your name these days for the injures late I done seen it all

My dad used to tell me he'd take Romo over Ben in a playoff game. I hope he was trolling me...

[NTP66]

The apple didn't fall far from the tree, eh?

[Lemon Berry Lobster]

Lots of sass from someone with ligma.
