  1. After last year’s debacle of a Spring Break, I don’t really care what the cops do. There were multiple fights and shootings right in the middle of South Beach last spring break, and there was a shooting that killed a man near a restaurant I was at. I have NO problems with the curfews, and people should know that the police down there (and the residents/business owners) are not lying when they say that they’re done with the Spring Breakers. I prey to GOD that they do the same thing for Beach Weekend for Memorial Day weekend. That crowd that comes here for Bikers Weekend is even more crazier and ignorant than the Spring Break crowd.
  2. If the Vikings are low balling him, why wouldn’t he want to test the market? If ATL offers him a little bit more, it would actually be in his best interests to go to the Falcons. The NFCN has the Lions and Packers (both significantly better teams than the Vikings), and a Bears team with a lot of cap space and a potential rookie phenomenon at QB. The Falcons play in one of the worst divisions in football. The Bucs aren’t a juggernaut, the Saints are in cap hell with a mediocre QB that they are paying lots of money to in Carr, and the Panthers are by far the worst team in the NFL. Cousins to ATL makes a lot of sense, and the Falcons can own that division with Cousins at QB.
  3. Deni, and it's not even close. That's almost an insult to Sengun. He's a very talented player on the offensive end. He reminds me of a younger version of Jokic. He has range, and is skilled at finding teammates. He's going to be a bigger name that everyone will know of the next few years, as he continues to evolve. Deni is a bust, and an afterthought.
  4. MJB, Tribe Called Quest, Eric B & Rakim & Oasis are all over my playlist. They deserve it especially.
  5. Exactly. They went 7-10 with an awful coach and no QB. They're much closer to 10-11 wins then we are. We went 4-13 with our roster intact for the entire year. You're damn right we're worse. All ATL has to do is get a QB, and they could be off and running. We lack the talent and the QB to do that. Their roster is so much better than ours,
  6. They're not a dumpster fire. The only reason they didn't win the NFC South last year, was because they had a dumb coach AND they had two terrible QB's in Desmond Ridder and he who shall not be named. ATL is LOADED with offensive talent. They have a great rookie RB, 2 legitimate WR's and a superstar TE in the making in Kyle Pitts. We don't have any of that. ATL's defense is better than ours as well. If they get a QB like Cousins, they will win that division for sure next year. They might even get to a Divisional Round or better, depending on who they play. We're far, far away from being that kind of team. Cousins wants to compete, and we're the least likely team to do that, compared to the other list of options he has.
  7. He's getting paid regardless. We're the one team where it won't matter how much cap space we have. If we offer 2 Years $60 Million, and the Falcons offer 2 Years $50 Million, Kirk will take that ATL deal in a hear beat. Why would he want to sign with a team that's a dumpster fire as far as talent goes, and on a rebuilding plan?
  8. Dollars don't matter to guys like Cousins and Wilson. Both have earned enough, and are straight as far as their finances go. Cousins wants to win, and we're about the furthest team outside of that winning bubble. If you're talking about a player who is just finishing up their rookie contract, and looking for their big payday, sure, but Cousins & Wilson are not in it for paydays. They want to compete for SB's. Cousins could easily go to a team like Atlanta, and make them a serious NFC contender with the weapons they have on offense and their young, improving defense. He would rather take less to win with a team like Atlanta, then go to a dump like Washington, where we're at least a few years away from winning AND we've drafted a QB waiting in the wings.
  9. I mean, what do you expect? We’re in year 3 of a 4-5 year rebuild, and we have absolutely NO recognizable stars or familiar names that would merit interest in this team outside of our fan base. We’re projected to be a Bottom 5 worst team in baseball this season, so that’s why we have no nationally televised games.
  10. Baseball is stuck between a rock and a hard place with their coverage. Most of the big stars play in the big markets (NYY, LAD, ATL, BOS, CHC, etc), so that’s why you see the same 6-8 teams on National TV. Also, baseball is the most regionalized sport of the 4 major sports by far. If you’re a baseball fan, chances are that you just watch your team, but you don’t watch other baseball games. The ratings really reflect this. Ratings for local baseball teams are as good as they ever have been, but ratings for nationally televised games are at historic lows. I’m a Nats fan (of course), so I’ll watch the Nats play, but I could care less about other baseball games going on. I might watch if Ohtani is playing, but that’s it. A vast majority of baseball fans are the same way apparently.
  11. Of course he would be. Winning a title in this town is NOT easy, as we have all learned the last 30+ years or so. His Caps team was the first team in the area to break that long drought of conference championship appearances and then championships by cities with major pro sports teams. Unfortunately, he can brag about that for decades to come, and live off of that accomplishment in the long term. He’s never going to be truly hated by Caps fans. Wizards fans though, are a different story. Wizards fans might hate him almost as much as Redskins/Commanders fans hated Dan Snyder. There’s no hope for that franchise AND their current droughts of 50 win seasons and conference championship appearances appears like it will continue for a long time to come.
  12. I agree 100%. The only reason Leonsis isn't as hated as Snyder in this town, is because he's an old fashioned bad owner - in that he's clearly not smart, spends money the wrong way (think Beal and Wall's contracts), and he's stubbornly loyal to horrific front office guys that he hires (or aquires). Think about how long it took for him to fire Ernie Grumfeld? I was actually shocked that he smartened up and fired Tommy Shepherd when he did. I should also add this: Ovechkin is the only reason Leonsis isn't in that Dan Snyder territory as far as hated owners go. He literally lucked into a Top 2 player in hockey for 20 years, and was able to get that lone championship. If Ovechkin doesn't get drafted to the Caps, the Caps probably would've been just as mediocre as the Wizards have been the last 20 years. The question now for the Wizards is how are they going to get that generational player through the draft? This coming draft sucks, and the next one looks like it will be a good one. If the Wizards luck into the 1st pick of the draft next year, they might have a chance to grab a potential generational player, but then it will be at least 3-5 years before we know that for sure.
  13. Exactly. We got boat raced and stomped on AT HOME by a Bears team that was on the verge of firing their coach, and we lost to a freaking third string rookie QB that lives at home with his parents (and made him look like a pro bowler while doing so). I don't ever want to see any proclamations of wins, or I'll get a headache. After this past season (and really the last 25 seasons), I will ALWAYS go into a game thinking that this team will lose, until they prove me wrong otherwise.
  14. We'll lose to Burrow and Jackson 100%. We'll split with the Eagles, and Giants, and lose both to the Cowboys. That's at least 6 right there. I'm not even going to get into the rest of the schedule, but we can definitely LOSE to anyone. I bet you were picking us to beat Chicago & the NY Giants 2x last year, right?
  15. No we won't. First of all, we barely got primetime games prior to this year, as a team that was in the playoff hunt, or close to .500. Why would TV networks schedule us for anything more than 1 throwaway TNF game at this point? We ended up 4-13, and we have a new coach and probably a new rookie QB. None of those things scream primetime to NFL and TV execs. We will most likely get one pity TNF game (probably against Chicago or Tampa Bay). We're not getting scheduled on Primetime against any NFCE opponents, nor are we getting any SNF games or 4:25 games (unless we're playing on the west coast or as an under card to the main 4:25 game). You can forget about us getting any MNF games too, based on our recent history, and lack of national interest and intrigue.
