Official 2018-19 NFL Thread
Same except i follow Bears a lot. There's a big disconnect right now that has me nervous thinking we will be good, but I guess whatever. NFL happens every year why can't NFL happen to me.

Bears lock up goldman on 4 year deal with 25 million guaranteed. I think he's going to have a huge year personally.

Alcohol/tobacco make most sense but I bet it will be weirder than that. I could easily see many different verticals buying up based on a specialty in retail or transportation or networks or whatever.

Right and I buy a bit the high evaluations on the basis that if legalization occurs in US these companies would have legit infrastructure and process to expand/set up new hq in us or whatever to take advantage. This is applicable even with medical marijuana in us since that is where they began their efforts. edit: that said that puts them at huge risks of runs on any news of snap back against marijuana legalization in US states.

Yeah I feel much better that they won't lose their money, I found the overlap funny though.

Most of the people i knew obssessed with crypto last year have moved on to cannibus stocks and stopped talking about crypto (and I think this is better for them). edit: is there a term for the stocks like tilray?

For the bears, one thing that worried me was how the falcons were pretty effective at negating RPOs by forcing the run each time, which led to some long 3rd downs. That said, I feel really good about jordan howard running out of shotgun. The julio jones stuff was funny. Reminded me of how bears used tarik cohen last year, where they only put him on field if they were going to use him, making it easier to figure out (at goalline, julio jones is too good to stop anywhere else)

Kiley on Dylan Cease
Especiall with size at at least "average" according to the chat, and the line (throwaway) of Cease sure has the arsenal more typical of a starter, but then the conclusion is he doesn't have good command and i don't see an easy fix available to make it better therefore he's unlikely to stay a starter just doesn't add up. I mean, just seems likely he finds a new variation of a pitch he can control much better and has two commandable pitches and 2 out pitches. Basically anyone with current command of 40/45 you'd have to say is not a future starter and just live with that even in face of numerous pitchers breaking that.

Kiley on Dylan Cease
There has been a lot of talk on fangraphs lowballing dylan cease and being behind the curve. I thought it was worth posting a full article that described why they are down on pitchers like cease and trying to reevaluate which pitching prospects are worth ranking. TL/DR is pitchers like Cease have flamed out a lot more, and they are systematically devaluing them in rankings, even at cost of missing next big stars. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/should-we-adjust-how-we-evaluate-pitching-prospects/

He doesn't need to be franchised this year, they could figure it out next year. His cap hit this year was only 8.5 million or something.

His mouthing of sounding out Kasowitz was just tremendous acting.

Well they wouldn't need to franchise him this year. He's under control, so this year you deal with hold out, franchise next 2 years. Risky but that's only way I see it possible on rams end. That's what's crazy, raiders had 3 more years of control albeit with drama.

Gorsuch wasn't pressed as much as Kavanaugh, but even so, this is the worst performance I've seen from a nomination hearing.

I have a hard time believing Bell is going to forego more than a few weeks. So 14 games of Mack worth it?

Well, what if they traded and then just franchised him and never gave him a deal and just waited for him to play?

The White Sox and 2nd Half W/L
I mean, I know different era but OH MY GOD. I would have told you brad radke had a sub 2 ERA and was a cy young contender every year based on how he played us.

Ah, thanks. I trust flavum's role as resident weather expert so I thought it could be a weather phenomenon I should know.

Is Gordon a typo or is that a weather term?
