Well I saw 2 years "up to" $10M, so who knows what the specifics look like.

Yep, just saw that on Twitter from Mike Garafolo. Honestly, I didn't see that coming. Let's hope for a little more news this afternoon.

I know that moving on from Niles makes sense, but I'm going to miss that dude. I wish him well in the future and I hope Jacksonville loads his locker up with Capri Sun and beard oil.

To be fair, Murphy didn't play a down on our ****ty defense last year.

I would love that, but honestly I don't see how we would have the money for that.

I've never smoked weed before, but a good amount of my friends do, and I'm totally fine with it. Honestly, I've always thought it should be legal. Even in high school, all of my friends smoked, but I usually just had a few drinks. I figured if I didn't try it back then, I would probably never try it. People I know are shocked when they find out that I've never smoked. I'm a pretty happy, fun loving guy, and most just assume that I smoke all the time. Haha.

Same here. After football season ended, I almost completely stopped listening to DC sports talk. It's just the same stuff over and over about the Redskins, and it gets a little tiring. Even if the team was coming off of a great season, it would be tiring. The takes on hockey, baseball and hoops have never been particularly strong, and they just don't spend much time on those sports. I know the Redskins are where their bread is buttered, but how much can you talk about the same stuff? I still listen to Cooley and Kevin every once in a while and Bram occasionally, but my listening will pick up around training camp...if 980 is still around by then. I've basically been listening to Sirius and podcasts, but I can't bring myself to listen to 106.7. I've never been able to since they switched to sports talk. Like Riggo mentioned, it's just constant negativity. I get it, that's their schtick, and it gets people riled up, but I don't want to listen to that. But as someone mentioned, that frequency is just familiar to so many people in the area. I have family members that talk about how much they hate 106.7, but they still listen to it because they can always get it, and they've listened to that station for about three decades. It's just a natural reaction at this point.

Hearing the news about Phil was like a punch in the stomach. I understand that things change, and all good things must come to an end, but I've grown up with Phil Chenier. I don't live in the D.C. area anymore, but I try to go to Wizards games when they play here in Charlotte, and I've talked to Phil a handful of times after games. He's always been so nice and so approachable, unlike some people in the media. The last time I talked with him, he came up in the stands after the game and hung out with my friends and I for a long time. It was a great talk about basketball and broadcasting, and it only ended because eventually we had to go. It felt like he would have happily hung around and talked all night about hoops or anything else. Just such a nice man. Although I know he'll be around, I'm going to miss him on the broadcasts.

Reading that just made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

So...was that not a majority draw? Or did Buffer just botch that? I am so confused. I called majority draw as soon as it was over, but then I was confused when they read the cards.

Damn...that's crazy. I was just reading about that. Apparently they didn't know who he was, it was just a random thing. Haha...I like this line: http://thebiglead.com/2016/08/24/nick-diaz-involved-in-brawl-at-las-vegas-night-club/

http://mmajunkie.com/2016/08/report-former-ufc-welterweight-title-challenger-rory-macdonald-headed-to-bellator I figured this was going to happen as soon as he became a free agent. I have never been a huge MacDonald fan, but he is a very good fighter. I assume he is going to get paid very well, and good for him. He deserves it. I don't think it is a huge loss for the UFC though. Although he is an excellent fighter, he never seemed, to me at least, like he was a "must see" fighter. Earlier in his career, he seemed like he had all the talent in the world, but he has never really gotten over that hump, and I have to wonder how much that war with Lawler took out of him. He took a year off, and he didn't have much for Wonderboy in his last fight. Thompson deserves a lot of credit for that, but Rory just never got going. He's still a young guy, but he has taken a lot of damage in his career thus far. It's going to be interesting to see what happens for him in Bellator. They obviously are not as deep, but they have some good fighters at 170, as Benson Henderson found out.

I agree. I liked Sheehan and Loverro. I liked Cooley and Czabe. But Sheehan and Cooley just don't have the same kind of chemistry together. There is just a whole lot of awkwardness on that show. I am definitely not writing them off, it could very well get better over time. But I do not listen as much as I initially did. However, I am pretty excited for Bram's glorious return.
