    I understand what you are saying. However, if he does continue to put up ridiculous numbers over a longer period of time, not only will his price go up substantially, but Spurs will have more competition for his signature. I think that paying 30m might be worth the gamble, because if Spurs...

    I definitely get what you are saying. From what I have heard, Carter was at his best, when he was with Jordan Davis and under the leadership of Nakobe Dean (who the Eagles drafted last year). Some of the character stuff came from coaches, but they were pretty vague and the problems outside...

    I was actually surprised that the Falcons didn't trade back. I thought that they could have gotten Robinson at 10, and could have picked up some draft capital. Actually, I kind of think that Philly is the perfect place for Carter. There is a great combination of friends from Georgia and...

    I thought that they could have moved up to get Carter at 7. I didn't think that the Eagles would be able to get him, because I thought that it was going to cost too much to move up. I did think they would end up with Smith, but I thought they were going to move back a few picks, and get him at...

    That is awesome that you'll be able to watch them live next season! And as a lifelong Eagles fan, I have to thank you for AJ Brown. He is awesome!

    Yeah, that was not a fun game to watch for me. When it got to the ninth, I was just hoping that someone would get a hit. The loss was bad, but getting no hit at home in the WS, is awful. I'm hoping that the "no back to back losses" trend continues. It's been a good series though, regardless...

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    I took 6 weeks of paternity leave when my 9yr old was born. It was a good thing, because my wife had to have an emergency C-section, and my son was premature and in the NICU for a few weeks. I wish I would have taken the same time with my 2 other children, but my work didn't allow for it at...

    The NWSL’s inaugural season was in 2013. There were other women’s leagues before that, but they failed rather quickly.

    Fantastic signing for the Yankees. Crazy money, but well worth it for one of, if not the best, pitchers in baseball. His fastball is insane! However, this contract along with the Strasburg contract makes the Wheeler deal to the Phils look pretty good. If Wheeler stays healthy, and pitches...

    I respectfully disagree. Ruiz ate straight jabs to the face all night long. The fight might not have been entertaining to you, and other casual boxing fans, but it sure was entertaining to me. Joshua did exactly what he had to do to win that fight. He didn't get sucked in by Ruiz into a...

    Boxing thread?

    I agree. Ruiz really did himself a disservice by not trying to improve his footwork for this match. He did not have to get faster, but needed to try to cut AJ off, and close the distance. There was no way that Ruiz could win from distance. He needed the fight to be fought up close. I can...

    I couldn't agree more, and you could see how effective a gameplan it was by AJ, by how frustrated Ruiz was getting the last few rounds. I honestly do not know why Ruiz didn't try to sell out for a knockout.

    Boxing thread?

    I honestly do not know. If Joshua keeps fighting like he did today (working off his jab and moving his feet), then I think the fight would favor Joshua. Fury is a very good boxer, but needs to stay fit to be effective. It really could go either way. I want to see Wilder vs Joshua. Wilder...

    Boxing thread?

    I agree. The only problem I have with Ruiz, is that he didn't seize upon this opportunity. He seemed to get a bit distracted (at least that has been the story over here in the States) by the fame/limelight. He could have tried to work on his conditioning, but reports say that he was not...

    Boxing thread?

    That was a masterclass fight by Joshua. He did everything he needed to do against a fighter of Ruiz's stature and ability. Joshua kept his feet moving, and fought from the outside, where he could not get touched by Ruiz's power. My one criticism is that Joshua would get himself into trouble...

    I completely agree with you. My point is that the Knicks needed to put in an offer for him and Kyrie. They didn't need to get them, they just needed to show that they tried.

    I will have to respectfully disagree with you good sir. I do not think that Fultz will amount too much in the league. Yes he is young and has potential, but his lack of confidence and his inability to remain healthy, are a huge question mark for him. As for Simmons....What we are seeing with...
