NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Eh.

It probably wasn’t a mistake, he probably just wasn’t thinking about the fact that his “like” is visible.

Either way, it is whatever in my book. Kevin Love won’t have much to do with the next generation of Cav basketball. If Sexton learns his social media lesson this way, it could help him avoid a bigger mistake later .

Could be worse, just ask D-Lo and Swaggy P.

Only reason not as sure is how he comes across. Just doesn't seem like the type who would do anything controversial. But not like I've ever met him. There are guys who if they did it I'd be pretty sure they meant to do it.

And, no, unliking it also does not mean he didn't mean it. Cavs might have said might want to switch it.

People do things on social media all the time without really stopping to think about it.

Maybe he read the tweet and it made him laugh as he was passing through quickly. Whether intentional or not, this doesn’t say anything negative about Sexton’s character is my point.

Big difference between liking a tweet like this one, and liking something blatantly racist or hateful.

Hell, for all we know, Kevin Love’s “heist” could be a running joke in the Cavs locker room that Love himself is in on.

all true. Only way this is a really bad thing is if the actual tweet was his. But even then, as you say, for all we know Love, himself, tells them all he's stealing money (jokingly).

Truth be told, I kind of feel bad for the guy. We can never be sure, but doesn't strike me as the type who would rather rehab every day than play in the games.

Looks like the Browns were wise to avoid the top end edge rushers but there are several older options who could step in and at minimum replace Vernons productivity. Id think best bet is look to lb in the draft in the first round and try to re-sign Johnson at cb and just hope for better luck with injuries in the secondary. Not sure you can trust Greedy though and possibly go corner with the 2nd rd.

Guessing the Browns' fans here have heard and seems like this is getting all positive reviews.... @Wamu @Shanemansj13 @Stakesarehigh @WiggyRuss

Per Rappaport (and many others by now) Former #Rams safety John Johnson is signing with the #Browns, source said

As a Rams fan watching all of these former Rams CB/S standouts leaving to get big contracts and then waived a few years later, I'm not sure anymore. He's been great with the Rams and I wish they could've kept him, but only so many big contracts fit under the cap. Rams have solid S depth (Fuller, Rapp, Burgess), so they picked to retain Leonard Floyd instead.

 

[shopson67]

I am just happy UVA is playing!

Didn’t look good for awhile. Going to be short handed though.

As a Syracuse fan, bitter about the ACC tourney. They barely edge the Orange, only to test positive right after the game and go home? The Orange should've continued on in their place IMO.

 

[shopson67]

In all fairness no QB is Brady. But then again I can't think of another QB who's team was fined twice and lost draft picks for illegally videotaping opponents. And I find it weird that TB took that 4 game suspension instead of turning over his cellphone and cooperating. That's not the actions of someone who's done nothing wrong.

shhhh, Brady and Belichick are GOATS, you are mis-remembering lol

Cannot really blame Rams for not keeping him. As you said, with cap ya just cannot keep everyone. Browns will probaby have to let guys go they want to keep in next couple years.

How soon do they have to pay Baker? That's when they'll start having to let guys go.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Two years

Next year is the option year

Tough call. Will probably happen in the NCAA to somebody.

Still don’t think teams should be allowed to advance after losing though

Imagine the eventual champ having a 5-1 tournament record?

No thanks.

 

[dtgold88]

His 5th year option will be for the 2022 season (about $18-19 mil). Huge money would be 2023 season.

So who the heck knows what's going on with the Seahawks and the Jets? lol

Apparently, the Bears offered Seattle 3 first round picks, a 3rd round pick and 2 starters of their choice and the Seahawks said no and didn't even make a counter offer. Then they appeared to address a couple of Wilson's issues by upgrading at tight end and guard.

It's looking like the Jets may trade for Juju Smith-Schuster and may be leaning towards keeping Darnold. But they also still have the 2nd pick in a draft where as many as 4 QB's could be taken in the first 6 or 7 picks.

2 starters of their choice? Lol

That's what was reported.

Another solid signing for the Browns, @Stakesarehigh @Shanemansj13 @Wamu @WiggyRuss

after signing Hill yesterday they come back and sign A. Walker from the Colts. Cannot say I know too much about him but have heard some call him a very good tackler....Like that nearly all of their signings on D came from strong units of strong overall defenses.

Good deal. Gotta rb question. For how long does our team have Chubb & Hunt under contract?

Pretty sure Hunt signed 2021 and 2022. Chubb rookie deal ends after 2021 season. Could offer longterm extension or franchise for 2022 if they wanted.

Ohio State going to choke vs Oral Roberts?
