Took me a second to figure out what "agghl" meant but once I figured it out, perfect spelling.

Also I don't quite get the situation, given the last line. You're asking both decisions, right, Etienne vs Swift, and also Smith vs Coleman. So I don't get why flexing Etienne means you'd sit both receivers. Unless you mean start both Swift and Etienne.

Here's a great thread posted weekly for this very purpose. https://forums.footballguys.com/threads/week-2-2025-who-should-i-start-thread-officially-unofficial.817808/unread

Post any fun/trivial/interesting language-related things here. Tried some search queries to see if there was a general wordplay thread. Couldn't find anything. Here's just a weird little thing I noticed. This may or may not be interesting to anyone else. There are two rhyming, one-syllable...

I wasn't going to say anything. But since you bring it up I will agree. Seemed like sarcastic humor. Like "Whaaaat? How is that possible? What absurd league settings could make that make sense?"

I heard this one leaked from Wuhan.

I thought he was.

That's what gets me. He was hyped like crazy as a prospect. If there's any sign that he's putting it together, get me on that train. I'll probably make a decent offer for him after he gets picked up. Which will feel really bad considering I dropped him.

Good luck, I just wish I had a shot at him, but I'm going to be tenth in waivers order. Drafted him as a rookie, traded him, picked him up as a free agent last year, dropped him on cutdown day this year. I mean, granted, he had numerous games last year similar to or better than his week one...

He said later on that it was a trade, not a drop/add.

Wrong thread, my dude. Here you go: https://forums.footballguys.com/threads/bragging-venting-crowing-grieving.747601/

Kind of reminds me of the first game of Lamb's third season. 2 receptions for 29 yards on 11 targets. It happens to the best sometimes.

Interesting. So maybe it's not the scouts that missed him (well, maybe still most of the scouts, but not all), but especially the analysts who compile these public draft ratings and rankings.

But you said his "draft profile" is pretty incredible. I can understand if a guy's talents just didn't equate to anything fancy in college, for any given weird reason, and surprise surprise, he's actually great in the NFL. But if his actual draft profile and physical attributes were incredible...

So, the thing that confuses me is, if he was so impressive, why had I never heard of him until the Lions drafted him? I look at dynasty rookie lists all offseason long. What rock was he hiding under?
