I agree it's overreaction. MLB quickly put the rule in place after the incident with the drunk driving player that died (can't remember the name). The players are grown men.
Any company buying the booze at work functions is just begging for a lawsuit. In the old days, this was commonplace, not any more. It only takes one person getting into a drunk driving accident, and lawsuits start flying.
My work used to provide, but now they only pay for food, you're on your...
While I'd welcome a new league, this has failed many times before. The XFL lasted one season. The USFL lasted longer, but lost tons of money. The World League failed, too. How Cuban thinks this will succeed, I have no idea.
His argument that there is more demand than supply is correct. However...
Easily one of my least favorites. The way the sun shines in that stadium because of the hole in the roof really makes games hard to watch (and play).
And the old "..so God can watch his team" makes me want to :barf:
I'm not so sure that Smith will improve much beyond last season. I just don't see him as a very solid QB. I've said it many times, SF couldn't have picked a much worse year to have the #1 overall pick. I think Norv helped him a lot last season, and he still had as many INT's as TD's.
For me...
1. The previously mentioned Steve Bono 75 yard TD. I was at that game and watched in dismay as that play went down, it felt like it was in slow motion. The damn over-pursuit of the Buddy Ryan defense left NO ONE in the defensive backfield, and Bono (who runs about a 5.5 40) runs free...
I still don't see how people can say we reached in the second round for a guy who was valued as a high to mid first rounder. This guy will be solid for us.
Adding two rookies certainly doesn't guarantee a playoff berth. They will be better, but let's see who they take before putting them in the postseason (of course, they do play in the weak Eastern conference).
Is the draft order in the supplemental draft the same as this year's draft? If so, we have a high 2nd and I say we use it on him. 1st round is a bit of a risk.
I've never reacted that strongly to a Cards loss, probably because I've grown accustomed to losing :sad:
However, if I were to ever actually break anything, it would have happened after last year's loss to the Bears. My friends that were around me that night informed me the next day that I...
The camera adds 10 pounds, so he must have really slimmed down. :)
As for the whole "not looking great" thing, I say PUH-LEEZE. New coach, new players, 1st minicamp, I would expect them to look off.
