The Perfect Prospect

Chief Bobby proclaims JJ McCarthy the perfect prospect and the Patriots listened. Will they take him at #3? Chris Driscoll of the All American Hooper joins the boys to convince them the Celtics won’t choke away the title. Commish has some nerd data that says otherwise in Celtics By the Numbers. Caitlyn Clark can shoot. The Red Sox are playing some decent baseball and you should be pissed. The power vacuum left by Bill Belichick has created a Game of Thrones situation in Foxboro. Nic Cage remembers the womb, PLUS Bobby sires.

Chris Driscoll - "I think Joe Mazzula is a great coach who has grown in this role big time. I do think the Celtics can win the championship and if they don’t win it will be because of them and not because other teams are more talented."

Based on what? 

 - He blows

 - He's petty without true success. Has made no significant impact on a roster already stacked. 

What is Mazzula Ball?

 

JJ Redick - "Perfect ball movement of unselfish basketball"

 *Until the 4th quarter

   Dont let Brad off the hook  

* MAZZULA CLIP 3 POINTER*



“I love three-pointers,” Mazzulla said following a win last season. “I like math. I like open threes, I like space, and I think it’s a huge strength of our team.”

He is a coordinator.  What does he bring to the bench in the game? 

*MAZZULA JACK SIMONE CLIP*

Thoughts on Tatum's continuous shitty performances at the end of close games? Specifically asked what play did you draw up:

Still, Mazzulla stuck by his end-of-game play call. “Give JT the ball and have him make a play for us,” Mazzulla said after the game. “He got a shot off. Got a good look, but it didn’t go.

Not Mazzulas fault if they lose.  He could help them win if he had any experience and some balls. But, 

3rd coach for Tatum and Brown. 

Second or 3rd iteration of the roster.

HEADLINES WITH THE OBVIOUS ONE

March Madness

Did you watch Iowa vs. LSU?

 Caitlyn Clark is good, but just hedge.

Hey, Angel Reese.  Don't dish it if you can't take it.

QUICK BREAK

The Perfect Prospect

Patriots interested in JJ McCarthy at 3

*JJ MCARTHY CLIP*

“What I heard from other general managers, not from the Patriots, but other general manages is that Eliot Wolf, the de facto general manager of the Patriots, is in love with J.J. McCarthy,” Pauline told Curran.


“And right now the feeling is that J.J. McCarthy — or at least Eliot Wolf is pushing for J.J. McCarthy. And that seems like it’s going to be the pick.”

Perfect Prospect Bobby. You like JJ at #3 pick?

DOnt sleep on Zappe

Patriots Delaying off season workouts by 1 week 

"So coaches can be on the same page"

What the fuck have they been doing? 

Kyle Dugger Dissatisfied with Transition tag

 - Another example of a mis managed off season 

Patriots spending 

QUICK BREAK

Are the Red Sox good?

5-2.  2nd in AL East

Rafaela - Legit 

Tyler O'Neil looks like another Adam Duvall or Hunter Renfroe

Hot start for Jarren Duran. 6 stolen bases. .393. 2 RBIs

Yoshida solid at DH

Dever looks pretty good

Pivetta solid as ever. 11 innings .082 ERA

Bello looks okay. Control issues. - 5.4 ERA

Crawford, Houck, Whitlock all sub 1.8 ERA being talked about as the next best pitching prospects in MLB

Bullpen very sold minus a shit outting from Joely Rodriguez


Andrew Bailey Pitching coach - hoopla

 - Using scouting reports. Cutting down fastballs to Seattle (One of best lineups in MLB)

Big fucking deal.  When your pitching coach is the top story - you suck

The A's should be playing in Europe.  Relegate these squids

Not that bad. 

Sox fans should be pissed. 

Snell and Montgomery could have been had with a slight over payment and still way under tax or just over tax and you get both. 

2 legit starters push 2 guys to the bullpen and give you depth. 

1 big right handed bat pushes Story down the lineup and Tyler O'neil/ Duran off the bench. 

Then you are in it.

QUICK BREAK

The Prospect who was promised a Song of suck and blow 

A Game of Thrones amidst in Foxboro with the Power Void of Bill Belichick taking shape

Belichick and Brady are the Targaryans. Great Power never to be seen again. 

* Elliot Wolfe keeping his opinion of the QBs close to his chest

- Is he a Pawn? Like Ned Stark?  OR have a real plan to take over like Tywin Lannister?

*MAYO CLIP*

Mayo (Tommen) 

Mayo also just sounding like an idiot in general reminds me of Tommen.  Given the kingdom with no real power who sounds like a clueless pussy about to be railroaded. And at the end of his time here he may want to step out of a tall window. 

Robert "Baratheon" Kraft spilling crazy tea 

Little finger Jonny Kraft and his hoe Cerrsai Glayzer pulling the real strings all at the detriment of the realm.

Calling Alex Van Pelt Tyrion Lannister feels like giving  him too much credit, but he's oddy shaped.. him or Mcadoo.  Eventually they kill Tywin (Wolf) for how shitty they are at their job. 

Who is Jon Snow/ Khaleesi?

 JJ McCarthy is Khaleesi. All the hype. Lack of what it takes.  

 So does that make Big black Hoyer Jon Snow?  

Either way, I don't see a crippled sorcerer around, so they are plowed for awhile.

 - Bran will have to be the next coach/ GM to take over after this shit show.

SIMPLEST MIND OF THE WEEK

Conspiracy Theorists Think The Eclipse Will Begin A "Massive Human Sacrifice Event"

https://www.iflscience.com/conspiracy-theorists-think-the-eclipse-will-begin-a-massive-human-sacrifice-event-73671

N’Keal Harry’s college coach explains what went wrong with WR’s tenure with Patriots

“He had too many followers, man. That’s what killed him. That poor kid,” Edwards told Dunne. “He had hanger-on’ers. And it was like, ‘C’mon, N’Keal.’ Because talent-wise? He’s got enough talent. He’s a big, strong physical receiver to catch the ball. And then he went to New England. That was the worst place for him to go because it just didn’t fit. That didn’t fit him.”

“Talent sometimes can be a curse. I’ve always said that. If you don’t use it correctly, it could be a curse to you,” Edwards said. “You’ve got so much talent and you think, ‘I got this.’ You ain’t got it. Because the problem is, you’re going into a league where everybody’s got talent and you’ve got to work at it.

Just four picks after Harry went off the board to New England, the 49ers drafted All-Pro wideout Deebo Samuel with the 36th overall pick, while the Titans took another All-Pro in A.J. Brown with the 51st pick.
