Changing this in May and have it affect the draft in June is definitely going to not raise suspicion that it’s not a conspiracy. They should change the tanking rules but it’ll have to go into affect next year. Doing it retroactively will be an absolute mess.
Adam Silver said it was "unanimous" among owners today at the NBA board of governors meeting today that the league needs to change tanking rules and do it before the draft this June. There will be a special BOG session in May to deal with that. Silver: "We are going to fix it. Full stop."
Nah, he’s full of it. Make the Ravens forfeit the two 1st Round picks they traded to the Raiders as punishment. Everyone knew Crosby was recovering from a knee injury. They still agreed to the deal. Then negotiated with Hendrickson before Crosby’s physical and saw an opportunity to keep their picks.
Ravens GM Eric DeCosta on backing out of the Maxx Crosby trade with the Raiders: "We live in that age of skepticism, and people question... I understand how people, maybe from afar, would feel that way. But nobody is more upset about this than me. Gutted by it, actually." #NFL
Jones’s agent must’ve paid the Athletic editor a ton to put him as the photo and in the title.
NFL free agency is here, with the legal tampering window opening Monday at noon ET and the new league year commencing Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET. Who are the best players available for your team to sign? We’re tracking all of them right here.
We’ve been discussing this in the StampedeBlue chat but if the #Colts sign Daniel Jones for more than $25M per year, they’re screwed. I’d rather sign Kyler/Tua for $15-22M per year and be able to bring back Pierce, Smith and Cross plus sign Hendrickson and a LB than signing Jones at $45M and Pierce.
That’s the third drive in a row where NE’s defense has been in perfect position for every play SEA has run. 🤔🤔🤔 #SuperBowlLX
That’s now two drives where NE looked like they knew every single play SEA was running. Given NE’s franchise history and the fact McDaniels was busted for it twice, and Vrabel learned from a coach that did it, it’s hard to give them the benefit of the doubt if it keeps happening. 🤷♂️ #SuperBowl

It felt like NE’s defense knew exactly what plays SEA was running that first drive. Josh McDaniels got busted for video taping opponents practices when he was the Broncos HC. Not saying it happened again but would it shock anyone? youtube.com/shorts/dT-dt...

If only a certain Midwest HC would support his players like this… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...
If Notre Dame, by making the CFP title game one year ago, means they haven’t been relevant in years, Cam Newton is saying the SEC hasn’t been relevant for even longer then? If so, why is the SEC getting preferential treatment in the CFP? That’s obviously ridiculous, as is Cam Newton’s opinion.
Cam Newton: "Notre Dame hasn't been relevant in years." Shae Cornette: "They were just in the national championship game one year ago"
It feels like the only people defending the Broncos OT INT are #Broncos fans and @genesteratore.bsky.social. After comparing it to the Adams catch last night or Rodgers catch earlier in the season, the only one called differently was the Cooks catch. The same play called differently within 24 hours.
It’s interesting that the decline of the SEC coincides with the rise of NIL. It’s almost like they had some sort of unknown advantage before all the other schools could legally pay players that made high school kids want to go to the middle of no where to play football. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Miami beats Ole Miss, meaning it'll be the third consecutive season without an SEC team in the national title game. Over the last 3 years, SEC teams are 3-8 in CFP games vs other conferences. Quite a difference from the previous two decades: www.nytimes.com/athletic/693...
