NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

[dtgold88]

In baseball it's truly a manager and not a coach, managing the egos and personalities that make up the team. More about keeping the team together and pulling in one direction than actual x's and o's coaching and fundamentals, at least game to game.

Kind of agree...though seems managing egos might be more prevalent in basketball and just as prevalent in the NFL.

Watson is going to start in the preseason opener?

For now....unless he gets at least a year long suspension before the game Friday.

POLL - Who will be the best TE in the NFL?

Self explanatory. Vote and discuss.

Thought it odd they would start him.

We won't be that lucky to get a decision that quickly. This will be dragged out a little while longer. Yippy for all of us.

Another fake quote, lol?

Wrong.

Why shouldn't they?

Why shouldn't they?

I honestly didn’t think he could play since he is suspended the first 6 games at a minimum

You can always play preseason unless it is a season long suspension i believe. Also th8 the only time he can get reps vs another team so makes a lot of sense to play him

Willis made something out of nothing on that play

Wrong.

You think he really referenced the Beatles or Red Rocks?

Plus, there very well could be a counter suit should the NFL extend the suspension indefinitely, under which Watson would be eligible to play until decided.

since he did not appeal the 6 games he would be out for at least that- not start the season.

there is a scenario where a possible court case drags on- he sits out 6 games......plays the rest of the season- then gets suspended for more games next year. lol.

its just crazy.

for some reason everyone thinks they know better than a totally unbiased woman retired federal judge that had access to more information than anyone else. It is not surprising though.

Dude was one of the best pure hitters, not just the last 50 years, of all-time imo coupled with some great power

So much for an expedited decision.

Have to say while perusing the standings the AL Central gets a bad rap as the worst division (by far according to some). Is it? seems the NL Central is for sure worse. Could argue the AL West is on par, especially if you are Houston, the division leader.
