Texans @ Bengals anyone? (1 Viewer)

I was on the fence about what to do, but I've decided to go soak my feet in some Dr. Teal's. Hope I don't miss anything.

 
It was pretty brutal. Make your bed & lay in it. No one made Mixon swing on that chick. On video. 

He's lucky to be playing IMO. 

So yeah - guaranteed people will talk about it this year. 

But it'll fade - see Pacman Jones. No one's said boo about Pacman's troubled past tonight.  :shrug:


I don't have a problem with that. I'm talking about the commentators having nothing else to talk about every single week, the same way they can't resist mentioning that Antonio Gates played basketball and Julian Edelman was a QB in college. The way they bring it up, it's just a sound bite to fill air time so the more casual viewers can go "oh yeah, I remember hearing about that. This is the guy?"

The NFL drafted him despite the incident, despite the video. Idk, at some point don't we need to treat him like the guy getting a second chance (because he's really good at carrying a ball, but still) that he is, and talk about him as a football player first?

I really don't know. I just know that treating it like an interesting piece of trivia each week is going to get old quick, because it's not a real narrative they want to discuss--they just want to bring it up. 

I really don't remember, did Mike Vick get this every week after he came back? Other than the first few games I mean. Did Donte Stallworth? Has anyone else convicted or suspended for domestic violence? I really don't remember. Did it ever come up when Greg Hardy was playing for the Cowboys?

 
Miller owners like myself have to face facts - Foreman is much more explosive and have to get used to RBBC.

 
Any chance Watson had of being a good NFL QB is going to be ruined by having to play behind that putrid O-line with Hopkins and a bag of balls to through to and no running game.

 
I held my nose and draft L. Miller this year (he was "good value" where I got him) and I fully intended to draft D. Foreman as well... but Foreman was snipped a couple picks before I was able to draft him.  But he looks much better that Miller tonight  :sadbanana:
