* No one called about Mac Jones or Zappe

The season isn't over, but hopes for the playoffs are

Start making decision based on whats best for next year

 - Building blocks?

Bill isn't going anywhere

 - Contract extension, Shula, PR hit, Money to spend

Is there an internal transition happening? 

 - Bill ceding responsibility to Mayo's "team" 

Where does McDaniels fit in? 

QUICK BREAK

Around the NFL - Trade Deadline

Fire sale on the Redskins DL 

 - Montez Harris to Chicago for 2nd rnd pick

 - Chase Young to 49ers for 3rd rnd pick 

   * Great for Patriots OL next week 

  * 49ers McCaffery last year.  Young this year

49ers also picked up Randy Gregory LB from Denver for 6th rnd pick

- wont matter. Purdy still not the guy? 

Vikings get Josh Dobbs and 7th for 6th round pick

 * cousins out for the year. 

 * Cardinals tanking starting the rookie even with Murray healthy 

Seahawks get DL Leonard Williams for 2nd and 5th rnd picks from Giants

  * Seahawks lead the division

Is Pete Carroll and better coach than Belichick?

Eagles get S Kevin Byard from Titans for 5th and 6th rnd picks

 * costs were low across the market

Bills get CB Rasul Douglas and 5th for 3rd from GB

Lions get Donovan Peoples- Jones for 6th rnd pick from Browns

 - How long until Watson is traded and Brown eat 90% of the money?

Jags get OL Ezra Cleveland for 6th rnd from Vikings

Chiefs bring back Mecole Hardman and 7th from Jets for 6th

* Why Jets?

Falcons get Van Jefferson

Miami gets Chase Claypoole

Cool to see a lot of movement in past years. 


BE RIGHT BACK

Meltdown Watch

James Harden traded to Clippers

Clippers receive Harden, PJ Tucker, Filip Petrusev

76ers receive 2028 1st round pick unprotected; OKC 1st rnd pick; two 2nd rnd picks; 2029 pick swap; Expiring contracts in Marcus Morris, Robert Covington, Nic Batum, KJ Martin

 

Clippers are morons

James Harden locked out of getting on team plane last week.  Sat on the bench this week.  Writing on the wall.

Third team in 4 years Harden has demanded a trade from 

Second star player the 76ers have capitulated to (Ben Simmons)  Embid is next

76ers with $60 million in cap space next year. 2 max guys. 1 will be maxey

James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard

 - 3 of the biggest underachievers in NBA History

 - the 2 biggest abusers of load management

  - one complete hot head who has forgotten how to shoot the basketball

Implosion is inevitable 

 - When does it happen

Celtics notes

They are very good

Porzingis fits seamlessly

They have no bench

I'm starting to hate Jaylen Brown

"tough being talented because it invites laziness, it invited complacency. But that's going to be our enemy this season.  it's going to be us versus us." 

 Ill give him this season to shake the Marcus smart out off his lips.

His game has flat lined.  Too much money? Too many fashion shows? 

 - I dont give a shit about your 1st quarter vs the Wizards

Chris Broussard drops the hard R

 - 

NEW YORK POST - Chris Broussard asks if James Harden is ‘r——d’ — and then cites dead cousin in bizarre apology

Broussard had been arguing with Nick Wright about Harden’s usage in LA when he made the slip-up. 

“Is the man ‘r——d’?” Broussard queried. 

Wright quickly jumped in to admonish Broussard, saying, “you shouldn’t use that word, but sure.” 

“Developmentally disabled,” Broussard corrected himself.

The Apology

"I have, my first cousin, we just put him to -- he died a few months ago, a month or two ago. He was developmentally disabled. I didn’t mean to use that word."

Cant ignore the comedy of errors

Brandon Miller - Paul George my GOAT

Hornets Rookie - Alabama when asked if the Lebron vs Jordan GOAT Talk was too much he said my GOAT is Paul George.  

   - The reporter just kept going. 

Congrats to Brandon for becoming part of our 2nd timer club

 - In January Miller brought a teammate his teammates gun that killed 23 year old Jamea  Harris. Text came in at 1:48 am - 2nd text asked for gun. 

 Teammate - Darius Miles and Michael Lynn Davis. Exchange went down in the back seat of Miller's car. 

Miller's defense - "Oops I didnt know:"
