Go for 2 down 9. Go for 2 down 8. Go for 2 up 6 in the 3rd. Never Punt. The RBs Don’t Matter. Real Kirk Cousinism Has Never Been Tried

@NateSilver538 @TheStalwart Tired and lame to equate poker to quant skills even if Ackman has neither
English
@TheStalwart Not to sound too woke, but I think Bill A. was born on 3rd base. His dad did very well for himself (not a lot of public records). I'd be happy to play some poker against Bill though so we can test his quant skills!
English
What evidence is there that it works? Ackman is a nepo baby, and I'd expect him to underperform index funds absent inside information and possibly even *with* inside information given how much of a tool he is.
Hooman@hoomansv
I like how Ackman’s entire strategy now is just to find whichever Mag 7 name the market is currently bored with, buy it in the low 20s p/e, wait for the narrative to shift, exit in the high 30s, then rinse and repeat. I mean it works so why not
English
sigh no I’m not. I’m doing a “if defenses are daring us to run the ball, shouldn’t we make sure that the person getting those rushes is worthwhile” thing.
Jack@jackdaniels3313
@Nate_Tice Nate you’re doing the offensive weapon thing
English
I know it’s relative to the positional market yadda yadda. I just can’t get too upset at a potential needle moving player who has the ball in his hands on about a third of the offense’s plays each game making Khalil Shakir money.

Jeremiyah Love has signed his fully-guaranteed 4-year, $53.9 million deal ✍️ The Cardinals rookie's contract gives him the seventh-highest average annual salary among all NFL running backs, per @spotrac.

@Timo_NFL Less defending his than criticizing yours. You said it's outright cringe to celebrate day 3 hits because they should have been taken on day 2
Maybe a team has multiple R3 grades but only one R3 pick, and get surprised someone's available on day 3. We'd praise for not trading up
English
@KirkTruther Overdrafting by which standard? Nobody would call it overdrafting if a player becomes a starter after being picked at say no. 90.
So if you call it overdrafting, you must be refering to the consensus, so you're defending his words by using what he didn't acknowledge.
English
i have no idea how people do not realize that bragging on day 3 hits is absolutely cringe because if you knew it you'd have drafted them day 2. It's not that hard to see through this kind of talk
David Lombardi@LombardiHimself
Great quote from 49ers director of scouting and football ops Josh Williams on how SF's front office self-evaluates: “We assess it based on our board and our standards. We don’t really care as much about what the mocks say. Because the mocks don’t necessarily talk about the 4th-, 5th-, 6th-round players — the George Kittles, the Dre Greenlaws, those type of players that we valued in the building."

"The heat transfer guy is stupid," they said.
"Space is cold," they said.

@TommyGunnNBA Yeah he wouldn’t have put his drive in the trees if he only had a 1 stroke lead

@TheRoseCompany @DJAceNBA Alright fair enough you have fun in this movie argument then good luck
English
@KirkTruther @DJAceNBA No, mine is apt. You’d be blown away by how many “stars” don’t actually move box office numbers now. It’s actually a conversation in Hollywood about the death of the movie star.
English
Calling him “not impactful” and still referring to him as a “star” is an absurd self-contradiction.
Nerd Sesh@Nerd_Sesh
My thoughts on DeMar DeRozan
English
@DJAceNBA @TheRoseCompany Box office numbers is the wrong analogy. The Rock is one of the biggest stars in the world yet he has no Oscar nominations
English
@TheRoseCompany Find me a movie star that never produced strong box office numbers? (Which is his point re: DeMar) it’s a different argument to say they STOPPED producing.
English
@DJAceNBA Obviously not contradictory. Surely you can acknowledge a difference in starpower for how a player is viewed by the public vs impact determined by metrics
Just fishing for things to get mad at
English
@Nerd_Sesh The only thing disturbing is your choice to call it “disturbing.” It was unnecessary.
It’s an all-time scoring list. It’s indicative of scoring and nothing else.
Demar, playing 17 years with 12 over 20+ PPG, being top 10 should not warrant any surprises.
English
@BoongV2 Oh okay my fault for a minute there I was deeply disturbed
English
@KirkTruther Why do you think I’m being literal?
The point is comparing apples to oranges. Obv there’s some correlation with +/- when the list has LeBron, Jordan, Shaq etc…
English
@jalen_sin @lifestylebrazyy How is this so difficult to read. He was both hating and joking
Bringing up on/off directly to him is obviously hating. But no he was not literally “deeply disturbed” that’s a joke
English
@lifestylebrazyy he right but now he backtracking and saying it was a joke just sad

@Verysimpleidea @vountee Golf. Josh Allen, Kyle Allen, Darnold, Christian Kirk play together
Josh Allen mentioned this in some youtube golf video

looks like Sam Darnold invited Josh Allen and C. Kirk to his wedding

.@Jason_OTC Suppose a hypothetical alien RB came to the NFL, >2x better than the top RB in the league. Unambiguously more impactful than any WR
Wouldn’t the alien still get paid <<WR1 salary bc of franchise tag dragging down the position group? Just gets tagged twice
Mina Kimes@minakimes
There’s an easy way to settle this debate…. Look at what NFL teams actually pay the players.
English
@minakimes Franchise tag matters too. Elite players at non-premium positions always see depressed salaries because the next alternative to an extension is two tags
That’s the Kelce problem, there were never enough elite TEs to push up the tag value

RJ Ellison (Cam & Tate’s Body Guard)@Romellz_
Yall not finna tell me Drake London is more valuable than Jahmyr Gibbs. An A+ RB can change an entire game in a heartbeat 🤷🏾♂️

What's even the point of the Dolphins keeping De'Von Achane now? With this RB draft class especially, he has real trade value.
