    Falcons trade Julio Jones and a 2023 6th to Titans for a 2022 2nd and a 2023 4th.

    Good trade for Falcons - Titans giving next year's second reflects past production.. 51/771/3 [2020 Julio] is the numbers of a WR3.  You know, Higgins.  Both catch about 75% of their targets, and YPC is actually in Higgins' favor.  Last year Ridley was Falcons WR1; this year Pitts will see WR2 targets.. leaving 2021 Julio  the WR3 at best.

      Here are today's set of  facts and opinions etc.:

      7. Paul Finebaum says that  Texas  (Univ. of Texas at Austin)  is no longer a relevant  college football program.  I don't see how that is with all their money.  Nevertheless, I have heard tell that most of the best prospects in the state of Texas are leaving there, and going to like  Ohio St.  or Alabama and points elsewhere.  (but NOT apparently going to TAMU)

      And you would be wrong about A&M. Part of the reason for Finebaum's statement is that since joining the SEC, A&M has dominated Texas in in-state recruiting and it is even better since Fisher arrived. Yes, that also helped other SEC teams here as well.

      In 2021 recruiting A&M signed 9 or the top 14. Bama 3 OSU 1 Texas 1 

      Additionally A&M's out of state signings consisted of 10 of their top 20 signings for the same year, 10 in state 10 out of state. All the top programs do exactly the same thing. Fisher is not a dummy like some of our prior HCs who thought they could just stay in Texas/La. This out of state group comes from Fla (2), Philly (2), NY, Utah, Colo. Ark and one each from La & Okl.

      Tamu still not a factor nationally

        When they actually make the College Football Playoffs....then they will be a factor.

          Here are today's items:

          1. Based on what I am seeing, the Atlanta Hawks could actually win their series vs.  the 76ers.

          2.  Speaking of which,  the NBA Champion this year will be "Fresh Blood".    Of the teams that are left, the one that has won the most recent championship are those  76ers...who won it in 1983....which is  38 years ago...or like  2 generations ago.  All the the teams let in the West have never won a title:   Jazz,  Nuggets,  Clippers, Suns.  In the East, the Bucks last won in s1971,  Nets won an ABA title in the 70s.  Hawks have not won since 1958. 

          3. The Indians losing a series to the terrible Orioles is just disgusting IMO.

          4. The Usual Suspects are at the Top of the Sporting News  Top 25 college football poll:   Alabama, Ohio St. Clemson, Oklahoma, Georgia. 

          5.  The Titans obtaining Julio Jones  raised their odds of winning the Super Bowl from  35-1 to now  30-1.   A big leap for the acquisition of a non-QB.

          6.  Impromptu  OTAs for the Browns are being hosted by  Baker Mayfield in Austin TX  at this time.

          7. What is more important:   the talent, or the  person coaching that talent.   The reason I ask is that the Browns are going to have a wholesale change on defense this year, but are going to have the same coach for that defense:  Joe Woods.   Is Woods going to be a better coach with better talent?  You would think so/hope so,  but I am not necessarily convinced.

          8.  I think Serena Williams may be done winning major tennis championships.  She was aufed yesterday in the French Open

            3. The Indians are down their second best SP and their second best hitter- both are hurt.  They’ve played over their heads the first couple months.  This is is not a good team.  They are a .500 team at best.  Get used to it. 
             

            7.  Depending on who you talk to Woods is the problem, Woods was part of the problem or Woods had nothing to do with the issues last year.  I stand in the middle Woods was part of the problem last year. 

            His track record suggests he doesn’t like to blitz often outside of his front 4.  So his scheme better have some dudes upfront.

              He's at best a WR2 even in TEN; if he had stayed in ATL he'd be WR3.  This seems.. not warranted. Sure, hype from the home team but they gave too many assets and are paying a crazy salary for a player who's on the down side.  OBJ even after rehabbing an achilles is far more explosive.. as we'd expect since he's 5 yrs younger.

                You may be right,  but apparently the bettors,  or those who set the betting lines must think this is significant.

                  Most believe they were robbed of the playoffs in favor of ND who lost their last game and still got in while A&M's only loss was very early in the season at Alabama.

                          Well finally I get the last word in. LOL! 

                          In the year 2012 the final score was TAMU 29 - Alabama 24. RIP you old argumentative rascal.??

                          PS-Alabama won the NC and A&M was #5.

                            Here will be a new feature that I am going to start:    a recitation of various sports facts...and speculations on things, and my opinions, if you think you can handle those.:

                            1. Re the talk by Mahomes wanting to go 20-0,   the last QB to  win 20 consecutive regular season games (not playoffs)  was  NOT Tom Brady,  but was Peyton Manning  in the 08-09 seasons.

                            2.  Related to the above:   The Chiefs are going to have a hard time holding off the Los Angeles Chargers  from winning  the AFC West, who will seriously challenge them. 

                            3.   Aaron Rodgers and Julio Jones  will attempt to "team up"   NBA player style,   to go to the same team.   That team could be the Packers, but not necessarily.

                            4.  If the above does not happen,  then Jones, I believe will go to one of 3 teams:    Rams,  Ravens,  Patriots.    Let's hope it is not the Ratfuckers

                            5.  Whatever the situation with Rodgers....stay or go from GB,  team up with Julio Jones or not,   his team will NOT  reach the NFL version of the Final Four as he has the last two years.  (now watch him win it all!!)

                            6.  Per CBS Sports  the team that is supposed to have  "The Most Improved Defense" is:    The Cleveland Browns

                            7.  I  do not believe that DeShaun Watson will play for the Texans this year.   In fact, because of his sexual assault charges (civil...not criminal) , he may actually not play at all.   Nevertheless, due to those charges and his speculative future,  his trade value is highly, highly diminished IMO.   Talk of Houston getting like 3 first round picks  is a pipe dream.  They may be lucky to get one first round pick.

                            8. Not that I have any love whatsoever for for the Boston Celtics,  but Kyrie Irving's actions in stomping on the team logo  was completely Bush league.  But I think that is pretty much what Kyrie has become in his career,   a bush league player, notwithstanding his incredible talent.

                            9.  Some people....even those my age or over,   claim that Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom, because of his current like 0.50  ERA is the best pitcher they have ever seen.  But I personally would not trade ShaneTiny Canadian Pussy Douche straight up for him.

                            10.  LeBron James is the best player to ever set foot on a basketball court.   But it has been proven that a single great player cannot win a title all by himself.   If the Lakers were to win the title this year (which I do not think will happen)....he WILL basically have to do it all by himself.   In my opinion  Anthony Davis is just not as good or as reliable a #2 man, this year at least,  to assist in leading that team to a title. He is not Scottie Pippin, or Duane Wade, or Kevin McHale,  or any number of the great  #2s in playoff history.

                            Thoughts? All I got is "this could get really messy" or "Squashed in a damn hurry"? (while the NFL can't spell 'hurry')

                            anywho? Get it off your chest...

                              I was looking at this thread last night.  I had that 'sinking feeling'.  I was thinking how Gipper's posts were fading off of the first page of the board...and how, 'the other day' he was posting Browns thoughts....and then went to sleep...and then there was no more 'and then' for him.   

                              He was a genuine, argumentative PITA sometimes.  But we all carry around our own baggage too.  I never cared for his trivia threads, but I appreciated the effort he put into them...and it brought interest to the people here who DID like those threads.

                              All I can say is, the Browns absolutely DID move to Baltimore....and I don't care what technicality you wanted to bring up about it Gipper!  -  Miss ya!

                                          I was looking at this thread last night.  I had that 'sinking feeling'.  I was thinking how Gipper's posts were fading off of the first page of the board...and how, 'the other day' he was posting Browns thoughts....and then went to sleep...and then there was no more 'and then' for him.   

                                          He was a genuine, argumentative PITA sometimes.  But we all carry around our own baggage too.  I never cared for his trivia threads, but I appreciated the effort he put into them...and it brought interest to the people here who DID like those threads.

                                          All I can say is, the Browns absolutely DID move to Baltimore....and I don't care what technicality you wanted to bring up about it Gipper!  -  Miss ya!
