“The Unstoppable Jer’Zahn “Johnny” Newton… “The Scariest Player In College Football” Said by an anonymous o-lineman drafted on day three about playing Newton, “That crazy guy they got number 4, he scary and he play dirty. Don’t want no parts of him. A fella could get hurt trying to slow him down. I just let him go about his business.” Baldy— Newton’s my number one defensive lineman in this draft. He plays nasty. .

Holy ****, to convince this kid to come here after he had a top-30 visit with NYG is impressive Queue Montell Jordan singing, "This Is How We Do It"... .

Speaking of which, Hartman has been hit with a lawsuit from a pregnant woman who said she saw him walking into the restaurant where she was eating with her fiance and he smiled at her and she immediately felt lightheaded and turned flush and her water spontaneously broke, as a result. She gave emergency birth to the baby right there in the restaurant-- ably assisted by Hartman, btw. The child was a month premature and thankfully it's apparently doing fine now. However, her attorney, Gloria Alred, is suing Hartman. The court filing claims that he should have known how dangerous it is for "a man of his obvious charms and masculinity" to smile at a woman, while she's "in the family way."

Pat White. 2013 My goodness, you've got a great memory! I used to have one of those. Seems like lately I've mislaid it and I don't have the foggiest idea where it's gotten too. Kind of like the proverbial "single sock gone missing" that you know you put in the washing machine with it's twin, yet when you take your clothes out of the dryer it's nowhere to be found. Gremlins...yes, gremlins are to blame. .

Absolutely! Daniels was, to put it bluntly, an afterthought going into the 2023 season. I think it's no coincidence that his rise from a likely 4th or 5th round pick ti the 2nd player overall was due in no small part to the vigor and intensity which he applied to his daily use of LSU's Occular VR System. Logan Paulson talked with one of the major developers of the system who told him that they had never witnessed a player as dedicated to using their system to the extremes that Jayden did. He was using it 7 days a week starting at 5:30 in the morning. Doing 250 to 300 reps regularly in addition to what he had to do at practice, in class to maintain his 4.0 average, and his significant duties and responsibilities as a team captain and representative fir the University. I can almost guarantee that Snyder never ponyed up the money for a state of the art dedicated Occulus theater like LSU did, but I'm near certain that Josh will eventually have one installed. It's just a question of how long it will take to get all the details agreed to so it can be up and running. XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX Ohhhhh wow! I am showing my age for sure. I was waaaay off! In my mind I thought it was a special huge dedicated 3d room where they can make any environment thattgey want to. I was thinking TNG's holo-deck. lol I read way too much sc fi. In comparison, this should be a breeze to implement. .

Cool. Easy to misunderstand intent. np. More than anything else I just respect Keim, and felt a personal obligation to show my appreciation fir him, because in the world today there aren’t many media voices that I feel I can trust anymore— going further than that general statement would be verboten.

And what does that have to do with my post?

Schefter basically confirming that EVERYTHING Keim suggested right after the Top Golf outing was spot on. I remember in one of his podcasts around that time his co-host (whose name eludes me atm) kept bringing up, “it’s down to Daniels vs Maye”, and every single time he brought up Maye, Keim would delicately say something like—“ I would pay attention to McCarthy, or I’m not so sure they like Maye as much as the fan base, or I wouldn’t be surprised if their top two are Daniels and McCarthy.” All of it seemed to fly over the head of the other guy, because he just kept saying Daniels vs Maye no matter how many times Keim tried to let him know he knew otherwise, without outright saying it. I’ve always respected Keim for his professionalism, integrity and honesty. For my money he’s the best and most consistent local football sports reporter, period. I trust him. From now on if John Amadeus Keim says something of consequence about the team, no matter what the prevailing collective internet wisdom holds as true, I’m taking his word as the modern media equivalent of those parts of the gospel that are written in red ink.

This is worth a chuckle. After a few words on drafting a qb at two Rivera mouths off that the Commanders have to protect the young man. They’ve got to get a quality left tackle. The line is poorly constructed. They need to do a better job and focus on that line yada yada… Tell me something Ron, “Who the hell built this monstrosity of an o-line in the first place, huh?”

When you take over a team that's got a lot of talented players with losing attitudes you work on the attitudes and try to rebuild the players. When you take over a team with players with poor talent and great attitudes you try to see if you can find a place for some of them until you can replace them with more talented players. But when you take over a team filled with poor talent AND a losers mentality-- you clean house and bring in as many new players as you can from any and all available sources. .

What is this guy an axe murderer or something? If you walk in his pantry does he have a collection of big glass jars with chopped off body parts floating around in vinegar? Cause for the life of me with that sizeabnd those athletic numbers I don't have a clue why somebody didn't draft him.

Day Three draft analysis with JP Finlay and the Big Guy...

Watch this vid please watch this vid...not for the hilights but for the completey over the top honest to goodness real, pure and infectious enthusiasm of this cat doing the analysis. Talk about a boost of positive energy... Vv "...this guy is gonna be good...he can catch a ball...the speed, the route running, I don't know about anything of that nature...but him catching the ball (major voice change) IZZZZ UN-DEEE-NIIIII-UHHH-BULLLL!!!!" Then later: "...I like this guy...I like this guy a lot...I like this McCaffrey guy a lot...LUKE McCaffrey?? I like him a lot..." "..everything about him screams that he's (voice changes again) JUST AAAAAY BALLLL-UHHHH!!! Look at this GUYYY!! I wanna see him BLAWWWWK!!!... "Look at LUUUUUKE!!!...Commanders got sumpin' now!..." XXXXXXX This cat is a hoot! He's just a joy to listen too! lol .

Has #RaiseHail (which I kinda like, even as a timer) replaced #httr (which I loved, but it is associated with our glory days and former name) as our team’s officially preferred tweet hastag?

Overeaction of the day? “Ben Sinnot under the right scheme, will one day out Kelce, Kelce!”

I am trying to be mindful and respectful of the feelings of our members who are still actively healing from our selection of Jayden Daniels. I’m hoping that even the most die hard Maye fans can at least get a chuckle out of this. The Raiders seemed to actually believe that we had only two options; either draft a qb other than their guy Daniels, or trade the pick to them—a clear example of maintaining an obvious delusional world view while under the spell of powerful group think beliefs. For those who are still disappointed— schadenfreude can be the best panacea for the psyche of all…

First a great heart felt thank you to everyone who participated in this experiment. :kowtow: I’m bumping this thread to give the forum a chance to see the final results of the pre-draft poll. I’m also requesting constructive suggestions from anyone on the forum, for the post draft poll which I will be working on later today. I’m dealing with some challenges at the moment (such is life) but I hope to have it completed and posted by some time tomorrow. I also have a general question: Is there a way to limit the time that a poll is active, and if so how do I do it? Please explain as if you were dealing with a daffy brained contemplative, but enthusiastic, moron man of 83. Sincere thanks in advance Also,if you post anything along these lines please do it as a response to this post, or remember to include my full forum name @CommanderInTheRye so that I will be notified promptly. My goal is to make this next poll enlightning, worthwhile, informative, and fun, so that more members will enjoy taking it—and maybe just maybe a few more of our gallant mods will decide to test the waters this go round.

Sam "Adonis" Hartman, a rare breed, bearded, chiseled body, strong jaw, GQ looks, a man that no woman can resist and that every man wants to be, introducing our newest addition to the qb room... "... a fearless natural gunslinger... with moxie and tight window anticipation...reminds us of Ryan Fitzpatrick." .

If there are any other "nothingtodoers" stuck at home on a Saturday evening, looking for a legal way to burn a few hours, try this bad boy on for size and think to yourself--- that's my quarterback now-- and dream of great things to come... 350 yds passing 200 yds rushing .

This kid needs good coaching and a lot of hard work. I guess we're gonna find out if Quinn made a good decision in hiring the Giants disgraced former o-line coach, or if he was fired and out of the league, with no other interviews, for good reasons.

Just Released: Logan Paulsen, London Fletcher and Fred Smoot conduct interview with Jayden...

Edit My bad. Just got back from gym and I'm catching up reading old posts. Realize this wasn't a prediction. lol

Great call, sir! Gonna message you before I buy lottery tickets from now on. lol

An obviously pleased Josh Harris on the process of selecting Jayden Daniels… Dan Quinn on drafting Jayden Daniels, the man behind the tinted glasses… A look back: JP Finlay interviews Adam Peters on what he wants from the 2nd pick, one month ago .

Rivera, in the same situation, would have drafted a lesser tackle just to draft a tackle. He'd be on the roster a few years as a backup and eventually end up cut. This place was a talent deprived total mess. It's not a simple one off season and we're back type of situation-- that job was in San Diego. Peters isn't in to the sugar rush, empty calorie, instant gratification type deals. This is a long haul, from the foundation up rebuild.
