Good commissioner work here. Every league should have a rule that if one of the fantasy GMs is named an NFL head coach, they have to give up their team 😂
I know I'm not normal but I remember seeing this live and thinking it was super telling.
I wonder if Hurts is tiring of being the grown up.
He's a guy who played for Nick Saban and Lincoln Riley. Going to this has to be jarring.
All these years later this five second clip still tells you all you need to know. Switzer going for the handshake while Jones wrests the trophy away from him. Five seconds is worth about 10,000 words there.
Travis Kelce shoving a coach will be played off as “heat of battle”. Partly because everyone loves Kelce and Bienemy isn’t a high profile coach. And that kind of sucks.
You "Deserve"? You have an elite WR, an elite TE, an elite Edge Rusher, a good RB. You have (had) a good QB. A new awesome stadium. The NFL is hard. Your division is brutal. Whine less.

Some personal news. I'm ok here and don’t need a thing, but I’m sorry to let you know some sad news that my Dad died yesterday.
He was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called “spindle cell” a couple of weeks ago and it spread to his lungs. The upside is he did not suffer a

Smith got his feelings hurt that Jeudy didn’t want to talk to him as he didn’t like what he said so Smith went to national TV to see if he could cost him money. Totally uncool.
Steve Smith Sr. just DESTROYED Jerry Jeudy on NFL Network.
Says if any NFL team calls him about trading for him, he'll tell them not to do it.
Steve went off.

My driveway smells good this morning. All night cook of 250 pounds of Hickory Smoked Pork BBQ for my Dad’s memorial service today.

A proposed NFL playoff idea I'm seeing. What do you think?
Week 19
Bengals/Bills
NFC 2 vs. 7
NFC 3 vs. 6
NFC 4 vs. 5
AFC playoff bye week
Week 20
AFC 2 vs. 7
AFC 3 vs. 6
AFC 4 vs. 5
NFC playoff bye week
To be clear on the Ridley situation:
My issue is not that placing a legal bet with a league partner is a 1 year suspension.
It’s that it’s 3 times the penalty for Domestic Violence.
Today would have been my little brother Rich's birthday.
And to be clear, I'm OK. I'm not special or unique in this. This isn't a "signal," and I don't mean to be dramatic. But it's also real, and it felt significant.
For the last 13 years, one of the challenging things about
My driveway smells good this morning. After a long time off, we’re back tonight with a couple hundred pounds of Hickory Smoked BBQ for our Homeless Folks downtown. These folks often get leftover type food. Not tonight.

looks like. For as happy as Mahomes was, he knew Allen was likely the opposite. Awesome to see the intention and urgency in finding the young QB here. We can learn from this.
Josh Allen pauses with emotion when describing postgame field scene, Patrick Mahomes running to find him.
"He throws the winning touchdown and comes right over to find me," Allen tells us. "To be in that situation and do that was pretty cool of him."

Starting to think Deshaun Watson is invincible. Quit on his team after he didn't like how management treated him and the moves they made. Skated through 20+ allegations of sexual misconduct from women. And fans are still begging for their team to sign him. Impressive.

Davis Mills may be the most disrespected player in the league. Played in the midst of total chaos and the shadow of the Watson debacle. I'd take him easily over any QBs available in the draft.
Life Thought. Don’t pass up opportunities with those you love. A🧵
My Dad is 80. He’s awesome. He called me this afternoon and asked me to go to dinner. I had plans and told him I wasn’t available and I would see him tomorrow. 1/3

So we're clear. The NFL does everything it can to encourage people to gamble on games. When one of their employees does the thing they ask everyone in the world to do, he's banished for a year. It's an interesting world.
My 81 year old Dad. He’s awesome. He’s always cheered and pulled for me. Even when he had no idea what the internet was or how one could makes a living from Fantasy Football. He believed in me. And I love him.
We're 99.99% Football Advice. But this is good marriage advice. Don't be boring.
The next time your wife gets angry, drape a towel over her shoulders (like a cape) and say, "Now you're SUPER ANGRY".
Maybe she'll laugh.
Maybe you'll die.

Monthly “my driveway smells good“ post. 400 pounds of pork shoulders for our Homeless Folks tonight downtown. No idea if this is way too much food with coronavirus worries. Oh well. With BBQ, you make that decision well in advance. Just do what you can do.

When your wife has emergency surgery to remove her appendix and you don’t trust yourself not to lose her wedding ring in your pocket.
Update: All went well.
I am coming to you live from a Brandon, Mississippi Waffle House. I, a total loser, came in last place in my fantasy football league. As punishment, I spend 24 hours in a Waffle House. Every waffle I eat shaves an hour off the clock. It’s 4:07 Central.
My sweet 81-year-old Dad is awesome. He doesn't do much internet or understand Footballguys. He just casually watches a game here and there.
Friday morning:
Dad: "Dang. That quarterback from Buffalo is something. You're on that kid, right?".
Me: "Yes, Dad. We're on him".
Small bit of personal news. I hesitate to even share this as it's not important but I also feel a connection to the folks like you who kindly read the things I post.
My email box during the playoffs is wild.
These sting, but I totally get it. People love fantasy football, and they hate losing. I hope for these folks we had some say in helping them get to the playoffs, but I still understand the passion and disappointment.
I get it.

My long-time friend Bob Harris is joining the team.
I'm brokenhearted over the cause as his long-time site of Football Diehards has closed as owner, and my friend Emil Kadlec is dealing with health issues.

People are so impatient. I saw someone criticizing Odell Beckham Jr and Baker Mayfield for having chemistry problems. Can we give the guys a break, please? Beckham's only been there 2 1/2 years.
Most of the food served to Homeless Folks isn’t great. It's often one step short of the dumpster. I love it that once a month, the best BBQ in Knoxville is served under the I-40 Bridge. I love the honor and dignity and sacred part of that.

Follow up on my post about my dad passing. This is from a person who works now at our old Bryant Boats building. The business has changed hands twice in the last seven years since we owned it. And still, they thought that much of my dad.
Thought about it for a second and immediately canceled my other plans and called him back and said I’d love to have dinner. Met him and my stepmom and it was great. Walked out of the restaurant knowing I did the right thing. 2/3

My 21 year old daughter just face timed me from Madrid. She said, “It’s rad here. It’s 2 in the morning and we’re out getting tacos and there are people your age here.”

Got home from my local league draft last night and the first words from Sweet Barbie were "Those wide receivers are looking pretty thin."
