I stand corrected. Would have been funnier the other way. I would have said, "baby, they for you!"

He's never even been in any trouble, and I think the dolphins are just clueless honestly. They have turned into a laughing stock

Ok, I'm not trying to hijack this thread, but I have a fantasy keeper question for all you Fantasy Football guys. I had Ryan Mathews last year and he can be a 7th round keeper for me this year in a 10 team standard non-ppr format. We start 2 RB, 2WR and 1 flex. Is he worth keeping for a 7th round pick? or is he done thsi year and too fragile.... discuss.

I never understood the Ocho Cinco hate, personally. Look at what other players do, (Ray Lewis, Chris Henry, Haynesworth, Pac-man, Vick). We had Donte Stallworth and Larry Johnson on our team recently. Meanwhile, Chad changes his name and we're horrified.

Don't know how this arrest will pan out, but up to that point I don't understand why anyone would bash Chad/Ocho.*

*(Even though I'm glad Vinny wasn't able to trade multiple 1st rounders for him, a while back. Thank goodness the Bengals turned us down.)

haters gonna hate

no matter what

And you're judging this off of one half of a pre season game against one of the worst teams in the NFL? He played well but no one game plans for these games. I'll hold off on comparing Luck to Peyton.

I hear they are already chiseling his bust in Canton.

His act gets annoying after a while. Just play ball. Marrying reality stars, having multiple tv shows, constant twittering, putting on HOF jackets after you score...all that is all good when you can still get open and put up numbers. Now his skills have eroded and no one cares about his act anymore. It's a distraction that Philbin wasn't going to tolerate.

[MTK]

Luck looked good no doubt, but yeah I agree with holding off on saying he's going to be better than PM. PM is one of the all time greats, Luck is just getting started.

[Monkeydad]

I guess Chad will be starting his new career now. Puke.

Chiseling his bust....
Say that over and over without smirking.

Good read on RG3. The ball definitely jumps off his hand, and I noticed how quick and compact his delivery is. The ball comes out quick with his release.
