Says only a Raiders fan.  😅

Truth b told, I’ve always dug the Lions. Their helmet was the 1st one I owned as I thought it looked the coolest when I was a lil tyke.

Oh man, an egregious hold against Hutchinson not called on that last completion. 🫣

Talking about the kids baseball, if you get a chance read the book Little League Confidential. It takes those position attributes and adds in the parents. Hot moms, who has a swimming pool, etc. it s a great read. 

[deadsolid...shank]

Back on the football contract topic, I’m guessing those holding out probably do have guaranteed contracts. If you’re important enough to have the leverage to hold out, you’re probably important enough to have it guaranteed. 
 

I wonder what the guaranteed as opposed to non-guaranteed contracts looks like. I don’t feel nearly so strongly on non guaranteed.

Feels like same old Lions...

Of all the teams in the NFL you can't give the Chiefs any gifts.  UGH.

Didn't Gladwell include those metrics in Outliers?

[Triple Lindy]

Detroit is milking the play clock. Not a bad strategy to keep Mahomes off the field. 

[chisag]

... Mahomes:

"We are the Chiefs"

(Detroit: If you're the Chiefs where is Kelce?)

"Kelce?!? We aint got no Kelce. I doen have to show you any stinking Kelce!!!" 

[NJBigFish22]

I’m sorta shocked that Joey B took every last dollar, I would have thought he would have done a deal similar to Mahomes.

I think chiefs should have punted on 4th and 25.

Yes...with perhaps the dumbest call by an Andy Reid team in history!   3rd and 1 and they try a trick play, instead of just running it with a big back (Pacheco).  They deserve to lose!!

[Triple Lindy]

First down wins it!

[Triple Lindy]

Boom!

What an absolutely incredible beginning to the season! 🙌🏼

... 3 big dropped passes, and one went for a pick 6. That's why they lost. The rest was just trying to recover. Bummer. Obviously I want to see Detroit lose as a Bears fan. If/when the Bears fold it in for the season, then I can pull for the Lions.
