Yeah, Brian should just shut the board down.

There is no reason to speculate or comment on anything because the GM's, coaches and players always have more information than we do.

Pointless.

So why are we all still here?

- he had to move Kesler anyway. As you so well described, Benning could have held out for better terms , and indeed considered doing so. He made a strategic decision not to, because he didn't want to sacrifice the 2014-2015 season. I submit that it would have been better to sacrifice the season for ...

Oh neat.

You hanging around reef and his 2 fingers?

For the love of God, it is 2 fingers of whisky in a glass, not 2 fingers anywhere else.

What about Strangelove?

Strange doesn't like it neat.

He likes it dirty.

One moment you are calling him short, fat and bald and the next you are referencing him as tall, slender and hairy?

Perhaps the first to be hailed as a "Genius" while not managing to do so.

No point, Blob was whisked into an alternate universe...

Well played.

Strangelove wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 6:07 pm Nope, in this universe where they didn't get drafted and then had huge seasons they're like 3 extra [8th round] draft picks.

FYP.

This is us getting along.

She said "it’s like Benning had 3 extra draft picks this year." But it isn't like that. Which was my point. Ahhhh but it is like that. In an alternate universe in which overagers who were not picked in their draft eligible years were again draft eligible in later years. Sure.

So you refuse to acknowledge the fact these players progressed well since the last draft ... as opposed to the players that didn't (or took a step back). Interesting! Nope. Didn't say that. She said "it’s like Benning had 3 extra draft picks this year." But it isn't like that. Which was my point.

It’s like Benning had 3 extra draft picks this year. Yeah, if those picks were in the 8th round and beyond... I’m gonna say.... more like 4 or 5th round picks S How so if they weren't picked in the 7 rounds that took place? (i.e. if they were not picked by any teams in the 7 rounds that took place, ...
