No doubt he was and I'm pretty sure everyone is aware the Freddie hire was a disaster. But not because he was white and they didn't hire someone who was black.

could make a better argument Greggggggg williams should have gotten the job over Bienemy (or Freddie). Far more experience and was successful in his short time in the role.

I think the Browns need a steadying hand as head coach, which is why I thought Rivera, McCarthy, and Caldwell would be solid options instead of going the coordinator route.

The hire that really prompted the Rooney talk was Judge, as he wasn't on ANYONE'S radar as a possibility. Then again, we're talking about self-proclaimed genius Gettleman, lol.

I'd have been OK with Mccarthy or Rivera but not like they are sure things. GB has a young guy in Lafleur and don't look like they miss McCarthy.

Browns have gone with experienced HCs and failed, too, with Hue and Mangini. Just need someone who will show them he knows what he's doing and hold everyone accountable.

Same but when i saw it was tied in the 2nd half and knowing how good UVA defense, i took a risk and hope they would cover

They honestly probably should have won. Blew it down the stretch.

Glad the Heat are holding serve in the standings.

Murdering, racketeering, prostitution, cheating, etc... Patriots are really a franchise for the people.

Lebron used to say something to this effect when he was questioned about his minutes here. Said if he got himself ready to play it did not matter how many he played. 42 or 36 made no difference to him.

And it makes sense.

Preparation for an NBA game is far more taxing than people realize. These guys do a lot to get their bodies ready to go that the cameras never see. A player as dedicated as LeBron plans his entire day around gearing up to play the game that night.

A day off means hours of preparation they don’t have to do.

The Lakers need to trade for Tony Snell.

I don't think they have the pieces to win a bidding war for him unless they include Lebron or AD.

No way.

Snell has no trade value because he isn’t on the Bucks anymore.

You know this!

Haven’t yet, but I will check it out now.

His story always baffled me. How a pro athlete could be dumb enough get involved in the things he did.

I think fans also forget resting during TOs/commercials counts as rest, as well.

Seemed obvious....the Lakers do have Lebron and LA wanted to hire Lue.

You understand the difference between wanting to hire him and being willing to because your star player likes him, right?
