@HaroldSeattle , can you pass a request up the SportsHoopla ladder?
I'd like a "tin foil hat" rating...just seems fitting, and less offensive than giving someone "BS"

Actually if you look the BS rating is no longer there. They eliminated a few negative ratings.

So Gettleman claims two teams would've taken Jones in front of them if they waited. NY media says it was WAS and DEN.

I think they talked to the same sources that Pete Carroll talked to when he said another team wanted Penny in the 1st round, hahaha

Coaches and GMs will make up anything to rationalize their reaches. Instead of explaining anything, he should've just said "Jones is our guy, we had him in our top 5 and are thrilled to land him at 6. Can't wait to see him develop behind one of the greats and lead this franchise in the future"

That would've made everyone look a lot better

Yup, I'd bet it's a good chuckle if we ever find out what the "offer" was from Detroit. But I don't believe most NFL rumors, even from good sources like Glazer.
They probably offered Carroll a lifetime supply of chewing gum, some Starbucks coupons, and a Ford Crown Victoria.

1) Zeke better still be a blues fan and not be rooting for the stars. He knows he grew up cheering for the 'note regardless who's paying him now!

2) anyone see him take a selfie and high five the kid that got hit by a puck close to where he was sitting? @averagejoe @TKOSpikes @Barilko

Sounds like Zeke did a cool thing.
Still hate him.
Only have basic cable.
No NHL games for me unless they're on (free) NBC.

Im sure Pat MaHomes owners are also hoping for Hill to stay... Don't exactly think they have a great WR corp without him....

Feel like a lot of stars fans are complaining hard about the officiating.
I don't seem to think its any better or worse than normal playoff hockey - always let them play a little harder this time of year.
And as a fan of a team that traditionally never had that ability to switch from regular season mode to playoff mode, looks like the Dallas fans are experiencing some of that right now.
