Indy was prepared

Luck leaves nearly 60 mil on the table

Admirable

Aware =/= prepared.

I supposed it is better than unaware =/= prepared, which we see elsewhere.

Tough break for the Colts

Sucking for Luck didn't end well

I wonder if tanking for "Tag" will work any better?

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.

Whisk - you want Chubb?
For...?
If I was drafting live, I might have taken Chubb over Johnson because I think Arizona's offensive line is abysmal, but I am intrigued by Johnson's value now that we have added ppr. Besides, I have now cornered the running back D. Johnson market. Don't want to break it up.

I think the Colts are OK, but thanks.

Interesting the effect the Luck decision/announcement has had on sports bettors/books.

Money flooded in in some locales on the COLTS UNDER 9/9.5 wins immediately after the announcement

And those holding OVER tickets of course are getting hosed.

Meanwhile division odds come into this as well.  Its now probably the most competitive division in the NFL, - and Jacksonville, Houston bettors (to win AFC South) have of course benefitted

Unsurprising, really.

I would love for JB to set them on their ears.

Yes. Unsurprisingly.

Since you seem unclear on the concept, I have highlighted my prior quote on the topic.

At least I did not auto draft Luck.

I guess you already heard this news. I had not until a few minutes ago.

Wow.

That will shake up some expectations. The Jacoby Brissett era has begun in Indianapolis!

Yes.  The odds changed - unsurprisingly.

Lets agree to agree, Simple Josh.

Depth.

You might get to see them for a few plays tonight.

I wonder if any centers get cut in the next few days, if the Pats show any interest.

Banning
« Reply #1199 on: August 29, 2019, 08:26:27 PM »

I have attempted to impose a ban on the poster known as HamiltonIII.

As we all know, sometimes people can work around the bans because I cannot broadly ban many a given IP address without impacting others among you. I have attempted to address that, as well, but we will see whether that effort is successful.

If you see a new post from somebody that you are pretty sure is him, flag it and I will take a look as soon as I can.

Regretfully,

Josh
