I've never been inside the LV stadium but have driven by it a couple times. It looks amazing.


Yeah the Hockey Areana and Football Stadium look amazing. Can't believe they don't have a BB team yet.



They will soon. just waiting on MLBs vote to allow the A's to relocate.

Then they will break ground and begin building post haste


I meant (basketball).


Probably just a matter of time.

But the NBA only has 30 teams and which market gets to lose their team...
Plus the NBA also wants to get back to Seattle... So who else loses their team?

Baseball is probably going to expand in the next decade so the A's moving there just moves LV up in getting a team. it was a foregoen conclusion they would get one eventually. Now Baseball can concentrate on getting into Nashville. and maybe back into Montreal.


I think you meant Vancouver...Montreal I don't believe ever had a team.

Expand to 32...Vancouver and Seattle.



Baseball. I clearly was talking about baseball. Nashville is a priority, and they had a team in Montreal for decades called the Expos. They moved to Washington DC and are now the Nationals.

Vancouver has a Hockey team and HAD a Basketball team the Grizzlies that moved to Memphis. I doubt they are in any hurry to put a team back in Vancouver. Vancouver has NEVER had a major league baseball team.


Phil, this is the series of posts I was talking about, not the BB misinterpretation. HmmMMm.

I think we’ll be lucky to score 10 points.

One place I will agree with Zimmer is that PFF rankings for O-Linemen are basically garbage.

Unless they know the responsibility for each player on each play, all they're doing is looking at the end result and not how they got there. A guy who allowed a "pressure" may have been doing the exact job asked of him because that may not have been his man to block.

Unless you are all straight up man blocking the guy across from you on every snap, its all noise, very little signal.


I find that a bit of a cop out.
Yeah, you don't know what they are doing EVERY SINGLE play.
But on A LOT of plays... you see a guy get locked up or double teaming a defender.
Pretty easy to figure out those.
When Bradbury gets knocked on his ass... guessing that is not his assignment.
For guys who spend tons of time watching film on OL... probably they can accurately guess assignments more often than not.

Far from perfect, but much better than "basically garbage".


So better than garbage, but closer to useless than helpful.

For me, it's useful. I never played the game, and I have neither the time nor the inclination to study each lineman's every snap the way PFF does.

Seasons over but it would be over over if Cousins went down. What does Turd Man do for you? Assuming they don’t want to lose every game…

Hall was out last week due to something personal; not sure he is back and Mullens is on IR for 4 weeks at least because of his back. So McCoy and Mannion.

My assumption is Mannion knows the system and can get up to speed quicker than any other street FA. Other than that he doesn't offer much. Doubt he gets elevated to #2 or he'd be on the active roster.

why would mannion know the system. he was a Zimmer backup. Mullins was the backup this and last year.

Because he was with the Rams? But I don't know if that was McVay's system, that KOC and Mannion had to subscribe to (they did not overlap there). If it was, did KOC import the system to Minny?

(We traded for Mullens Aug 22, 2022, Mannion was released Aug 30)

I know its weak.

It's weird because when the pressure is on, Cousins resorts to covering the ear holes in his helmet.

Somewhere in all that is a good speak no evil, hear no evil analogy.

It wouldn't be a day ending in 'y' without Ricky attacking a poster rather than a post. Skol, my friend.

Not in the least. It was a shot at Kirk Cousins and his limited ability to learn things.

Limited ability to "learn things" and the example is 'cause he uses a memory technique of saying things out loud which I defended as valid specifically to you?

Show me an example where I've attacked a poster who didnt critizse or attack someone else first
