So...
He said it's time he knows
And measured what he uses to throw
And hopes we can be friends

(it's a work in progress...)

8.9 inches, measured from my asshole.

Just measured my hands at about 9", and I have relatively small hands.

But I can still hold a football with them pretty easily.

I have never fumbled in a college level football contest. Pro either, for that matter.

You have prototypical QB size, too! What's your 40 time?

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Fri Mar 04, 2022 12:20 pm

I'm 9 3/8 and throwing a football is, by far, the worst standard american sports skill for me. Can throw far, can't throw a spiral and probably look stupid as hell trying.

Calvin Ridley suspended 2022 season for betting on games.

Based on friend texts and twitter, I'm pretty sure there were no unique jokes left within 3 minutes of the announcement.

He bet $1500 on NFL games and it's going to cost him over $11 million.

Ouch.

He's lucky Bart Giamatti and Fay Vincent aren't running the NFL.

Interesting. Did the Seahawks just want to move on? Do they think he's on the decline and decided to sell high? Not sure why they would do this unless they are planning on a full rebuild.

That seems like an insanely high amount of guaranteed money for an ancient QB. I get how hard it is to find a good QB, I’m still anxiously awaiting the next Ken O’Brien, but at some point you are better of letting him go and spending the money elsewhere. I’m assuming they can’t afford Adams now, and I think Rodgers will drop off with Adams. I think Adams’ numbers will go down on most teams, too.

I'm sure this will work out just fine...

Seahawks reportedly agree to trade Russell Wilson to Broncos

In one of the biggest trades in Seattle sports history, the Seahawks are trading quarterback Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos for a package that includes multiple first-round picks, according to multiple reports.

degenerasian · Post by **degenerasian** » Tue Mar 08, 2022 2:30 pm

According to the NFL network the Broncos are sending the Hawks;
2 x 1st Round Picks
2 x 2nd Round Picks
Drew Lock
Noah Fant
Shelby Harris

Whoa. That's a haul. I was even reading on the Twitters that the Commie Bastards in DC made a push that Seattle rejected.

Without a QB, it won't mean anything.

For one of the 10 actual good quarterbacks, I would have expected more.

HaulCitgo · Post by **HaulCitgo** » Tue Mar 08, 2022 3:17 pm

Decent haul to me. The picks alone really. I like Wilson's game so very difficult to replace but this is good value. Hes on the outside edge of elite to me.

Here with you. I think practically any player in the league is worth 2 First-Rounders, considering the cap-savings that they would give a team if they both hit. If Seattle wasn't going anywhere with him, the 2 ones and 2 twos by themselves would make this a great haul.

If the cap number for AA-Ron goes down, wouldn't that make it easier to sign adams?

Yeah, It's all about the picks. Noah Fant is a decent pass-catcher, but blocks about as well as the average Swamper. Shelby Harris is a serviceable D-lineman, but replaceable. Drew Lock is... Drew Lock.

I'm excited about it. At least there is potential, for a change. Now, if they could only get the KC, SD and LA quarterbacks moved out of the division...

Have to agree.

Although it's a good deal for the Broncos as well.

8 years since the Seahawks were in the Super Bowl. An aging team with holes all over the place.

Got to start the rebuild sometime and 4 top level draft picks and a starting tight end isn't bad considering the Seahawks aren't winning that division for the foreseeable future.

We're gonna have to work on the OL if we're expecting Giff to reach his potential as a franchise QB.
