  1. Half of the owners in baseball don’t care to put a WS contending team on the field. They want to be profitable, try to get a new stadium fully paid for by tax payers, and watch their franchise valuation skyrocket year over year.
  2. I’m no lawyer, but now that the distribution of Bally Sports is cut by, let’s say conservatively 30%, wouldn’t Diamond Sports Group breach the contract so the Twins can opt out? Then again, the Pohlads/DSP knew this was likely to happen and still took the short term cash for 1 year… All of this is a mess. In the year 2024, we shouldn’t have to be pirating streams of our local sports teams.
  3. I’m fascinated to know what percentage of in-market fans actually have a service to watch Bally Sports now? Comcast customers (me included) have to make up a pretty size-able percentage. My cable box is essentially worthless to me without Bally Sports this summer.
  4. 12+ hours later and I’m still flabbergasted by the Penix selection. Atlanta clearly has no direction.
  5. Agreed. No hard feelings here. He wasn’t going to figure it out continuing to play for the Twins. He needed the wake up call sitting out all of 2023.
  6. Kwesi is COOKING! Love the pick of Turner. The rest of the draft is late round darts then I hope they go wild in UDFA.
  7. Man, it really goes to show how desperate teams are for a good QB. From a WAR perspective, the 14th best QB provides more value than Aaron Donald, multiple DPOY award winner. We’re seeing teams take their lottery ticket because it’s so valuable if the QB hits big.
  8. We’re going to see some defense studs at 23… Fingers crossed Byron Murphy slides to 23!
  9. No doubt this is a hand picked QB by KOC. I’ve got faith he continues to improve. And no doubt we have the best situation for a young QB to go to.
  10. JJ McCarthy! Without giving up 23 is huge
  11. Hahahahahaha Falcons. Suck it Kirk!
  12. This has been the most chalk draft in a while. No trades and it’s been pretty clear who the teams were going to take if they stuck with the pick.
  13. Not for the money he signed for. He’s Atalanta’s headache 2 years from now still owing him $40 million
  14. Takes 2 to tango. Sounds like ownership stepped in and said we want the QB.
  15. It was a long shot but that sucks we didn’t get the deal done for 3rd overall and get Maye.
  16. Last minute plea to make the deal Kwesi! Let’s get to 3
  17. Kiper is 63 and showing no signs of slowing down. Wonder if he’s got another 20 years in him to be a part of the draft spectacle?
  18. Disappointing that the dream to get Maye is dead. That was by far my most preferred outcome. I think I call the Giants’ bluff and wait until 8 or 9 to make a trade up for McCarthy.
  19. This. The Patriots have no OL, Osborn is their current top 2 WR, and the OC has no experience designing schemes or calling plays. Only Carolina last year has a worse situation for a young QB to go to.
  20. I’m sure they will, but that only makes the job more difficult to field a quality team around him before he’s either ruined or needing a $60 million AAV extension. I don’t know why they want to start the rookie contract clock now when they have no OL, no receiving options, and a 1st time HC/OC.
  21. If the trade up to 3 proves to be too much, then I certainly see this scenario playing out. For Maye’s sake, I hope New England passes on him and the other top QBs. I see their organization the same way as Carolina last year. There’s no infrastructure in place to make him successful.
  22. I’m expecting pure chaos tonight. Starting with us trading to the top 5 for one of Maye, Daniels, and McCarthy.
  23. I like all 6 top QB prospects at a certain price. Maye I think is the best fit for the scheme with the highest upside. Really hope we trade with NE and get him. Williams and Daniels appear locked in at 1 and 2. I have them and Maye in a tier together as Pro-Bowl/All-Pro potential. McCarthy I’d do a small trade up for or just risk he falls to 11. He’s not a guy I’d give up the farm for like Maye. I can’t get past him not being a focal point at Michigan. The people that crunch the tape say he did great on 3rd downs and clutch plays but I’m just not sold. Penix and Nix IMO are 2nd round or later QBs. I’m not gonna be thrilled if they are drafted by the Vikings.
  24. This is what the Pohlads signed up for. Sure, I’ll still attend a live game or 2 this summer because I love watching baseball in person. Beyond that, I’m going to check out for weeks at a time.
  25. Haven’t watched a second tonight. T Wolves playoff game. All I gotta say is if this week is a 4-3 type week, that’s all I need to know that the season is over.
