Cooler when you remember Coco is 19 yr old & Shelton is 20
I’ve watched more of this than I have any tennis tournament ever. Alcarez is something special I don’t see him losing. I see Gauff and Sabalenka the finals for the women.

Yeah Sabalenka is really really good and playing like the #1 player that she will be on Monday morning.

That's the problem for the Americans on the mens side. Alcaraz is only 20 and is looking like he will be the next great

You know the thing that gripes me the most about that was that it was his dad that put that crap out. Dads stfu. I don’t see Williams not coming out because the NFL for QBs today is all about getting that 2nd contract. Doubtful he would push that back a year.

I don 't know. NIL changes things and provides options that didn't exist before.

Postponing that 2nd contract may not seem like a big deal when a player can make a couple million staying in school and the team likely to pick him doesn't seem like a good fit.

Seems like a pretty big risk to me to put off that 150 million guaranteed pay day. I think his dad is just running his mouth.

Weird grammar by Schefty. Reads as he agreed to the extension by a wide margin?
Yeah I think that was meant to come after the statement of being the highest paid defensive player

If you’re in a bad situation that is more impactful than the delay of a year to get that 2nd deal. The Cardinals are a bad situation for him. It’s a defensive coach not an offensive coach and it’s going to be a shit show of a regime run by Gannon. He’s over his head. Of the other potential candidates, I think you see him come out. But that Cards situation looks mighty shitty.

Yep. His by a wide margin close should have been the intro to the following sentence.

Yeah I expect them to try to force a trade. Thinking back I can recall some stuff from his Dad. In the recruiting process the dad told Riley hey if you don’t offer him and we think it’s the best place for him we will still show up, then you got a big competition on your hands. I personally think it’s just a matter of time until someone challenges the draft again, he might be the guy to do it.

That is how it should be.

I fear Algeir and Patterson are going to get more touches than they should.

559 carries last year, plenty to go around. Only 48 targets for the RB position though, that has to rise with Bijan and Ridder in the mix.
