The picks for tonight are in. You may call me crazy for a +950 8-legger and that's okay. Come join me on stream tonight and let's root for points together @DKSports #DKPartner
English
@KnowBallEra @JackMac @AndrewBrandt Find me an example where the outcome is better than the projections used to sell the project. They just aren’t out there.
Of the new stadium projects that could be argued as partial successes none of them are suburban NFL stadiums.

Paid for with $850 million from public funding.
Socialize cost, privatize profit.
Adam Schefter@AdamSchefter
Buffalo will open its new Highmark Stadium on Thursday Night Football in week two, when the Bills host the Lions.
English
@JackMac @AndrewBrandt Right, that’s the projections to sell the project to the public.
We see many reports that 5, 10, 15 years down the road the reality is nowhere close to the optimistic projections at the start
English
@JackMac @AndrewBrandt You’re a great internet researcher. Can you find a single study/report that shows a stadium deal actually pays the community what is promised to get the deal done?
I just see report after report that stadiums don’t provide what is promised in terms of taxes and development
English
@AndrewBrandt Buffalo will profit off of this stadium in 2 years. If not quicker with the roof. No brainer business decision.
English
@mongoose0221 @AndrewBrandt Were the players and staff not paying income tax when the team played at the previous stadium?
English
@AndrewBrandt The long term impact is clear, sports teams generate massive tax revenue for the state.
The taxes from players/staff salaries over the cost of the lease will pay for itself back to the state.
English
@chadbjc2408 @BudElliott3 What does resume have to do with earning potential? Some of the richest people in America are college dropouts that were so talented it didn’t matter that they had a college degree.
Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Zuckerberg. None of them had a degree on their resume
English
@BudElliott3 Have you ever looked at a resume of a head coach?? The jobs they had before becoming a head coach? Oh and had to have a degree on top of that. Then look at a high school kid’s resume. You are a joke journalist
English
Totally agree with Nick there should be a salary cap for Coach pay
SEC Country@SECcountry
Nick Saban calls for a salary cap to be implemented across college football 🤔💰 (via The Paul Finebaum Show)
English
@SECcountry Why is it only a salary cap for players salary?
We need a salary cap on coach salaries and on the number of support staff to really make things even and fair.

@jsmaimone @Ghost_of_Ghosty If you’re such a big supporter, you should know it’s the Tunnel to Towers Foundation

@Ghost_of_Ghosty Mark is a great Patriot. We're both prominent supporters of the Tunnel for Towers Foundation. #winning

@rrac @Bayerwithme If Charlie had been a UD classmate or housemate I would've done everything within my power to make sure he stayed on the straight and narrow and never became the criminal and cult leader he did. It's what real friends do. #alwaysproUD

Seriously wish we could bet on Golden State to land the #1 pick
Bill Simmons@BillSimmons
Cannot for the life of me figure out why… 1. The NBA moved the lottery to a Sunday afternoon 2. They put it at 3 ET before the 2 playoff games on Mother’s Day no less. It’s almost like they’re trying to sneak it by us. Conspiracy Bill is on alert!!!!!!!!
English
@Dodddad @DynastyPrice @DynastyNerds I think Nussmeier and Sorsby are very different prospects.
1) Size. Nussmeier is 6’1” 205, Sorsby is 6’3” 235
2) Athleticism. Nuss 70 atts -153 yards 5 TDs, Sorsby 320 atts 1295 yards 22 TDs
3) Decision making. Nuss 1032 atts 5% TD 2.4% INT, Sorsby 968 atts 6.2% TD 1.9% INT
English
@DynastyPrice @DynastyNerds Fair enough, I worry we are just overly excited for a supplemental draft prospects
English
IMO if he goes in the supplemental draft, each dynasty league should have their own supplemental draft. Any pick used would be what they are willing to give up in 2027. The current 1.01 gets 1st bid, all the way through 12. Then each team gets another shot with the 2nd round if no one claims him in the 1st. That continues till he is claimed.
I suspect he goes late 1st rarely, but often in the early 2nd in superflex.
3rd-5th in 1QB
PeteNova@SuperrNova38
If Brendan Sorsby went to the supplemental NFL draft how would we handle him in dynasty? Rookie drafts have already concluded and FAAB has been spent. it might be unconventional but making untouchable and include him in your rookie draft next season feels like the best option.

@49ers_Access @RichEisenShow @JoeGoodberry thought you’d be interested in this. I could only imagine the blowback if this was Zac Taylor talking.

@chinamaniac @FDSportsbook @bball_pardy What justifies Kobe and Curry ahead of Lebron?
Lebron: 4 MVPs, 4 FMVPs, 1 Scoring Title, 4 titles as the main player
Kobe: 1 MVP, 2 FMVPs, 2 Scoring Titles, 2 titles as the main player
Curry: 2 MVPs, 1 FMVP, 2 Scoring Titles, 2-3 titles as main player depending on argument
English
@FDSportsbook @bball_pardy Goat argument ended 30 years ago
This century
1. Duncan
2. Kobe
3. Curry
4. Lebron

Documenting a team who isn’t good at all is quite the reach by HBO execs
HBO Max@hbomax
The dream is now. U.S. Against the World: Four Years with the Men’s National Soccer Team, a new HBO Documentary Series leading up to the World Cup, premieres May 12 on HBO Max.
English
@JoeGoodberry Id say Freeling and Rutledge
But what are we calling a “hit” for a 1st round guard that a team traded up to draft
English
@FFDynastyGrill Can we assume the Cardinals are rational actors given they just took a RB 3rd overall with their current roster needs?
There’s a world where the Cards go like 5-12/6-11 and are picking 5th-7th both Arch and Dante are gone and they decide to run it back with Beck
English
I really struggle with Carson Beck in Round 2 of Rookie Drafts..
Does he have a genuine shot at some starting time this season? - Perhaps..
Are the Cardinals going to Draft a QB high in a star-studded Rookie QB Class in 2027? - ABSOLUTELY!
English
@paulsbballshow @somebodys0n @ESPNInsights Id disagree, MJ looked for his own shot 1st and involved teammates 2nd. He led the NBA in FGAs 7 times. 8 seasons with 5.5 apg or less.
Meanwhile Lebron has 1 season leading the NBA in FGAs. Lebron’s lowest apg for a season is 5.9.
MJ scored first, Lebron prioritized others

One more for history 👀
Up 3-0 on the Houston Rockets, a Game 4 win would mark the 13th sweep of LeBron’s career.
That would tie Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most all-time.
English
@paulsbballshow @somebodys0n @ESPNInsights Again, Im not a MJ hater at all. The difference in them is just what your preference is.
Do you want the better scorer who has a higher peak but less longevity or do you want the better all-around player who gives more longevity
English
@thund3rdan @somebodys0n @ESPNInsights Hmm.. Lebrons career numbers you got right even rounded up the scoring 😂
English
@paulsbballshow @somebodys0n @ESPNInsights 30-4-4 wasn’t actually a reference to MJ specifically it was supposed to be more for Kobe like players.
English
@thund3rdan @somebodys0n @ESPNInsights But why ALTER Mikes numbers like you did to make Brons look better ?
English
@paulsbballshow @somebodys0n @ESPNInsights That’s what makes the discussion fun. MJ’s peak was no doubt higher than Lebron’s. But the longevity of greatness of Lebron is better than MJ.
The NBA was such a different era with MJ. He had to go through lesser teams but also had less help than Lebron.
English
@thund3rdan @somebodys0n @ESPNInsights The guy you said you wouldnt want won way more in a shorter span than the guy you want... The guy you want also had way mpre help and many Future Hofers on his teams.
