That's fine for a casual fan to say, but coaches have to and if needed I trust they will take action prior to then.

Looks like PFF ranked him 22 out 43 in his rookie year? https://www.pff.com/nfl/players/will-reichard/98965

Damn air quality alert extended to Monday. Some fine summer days ... ruined. Am I crazy or are more and more of our summer days being ruined by Canadian wildfire smoke?? I know they'll never be able to eliminate it ... but they could be spending more money and effort to fight it. Maybe it's...

Not sure outside the metro, but in the metro I feel like hockey is a game for rich folks. Damn expensive equipment. Have to pay for ice time at a limited number of facilities, so guessing you pay top dollar for a decent time or you take a terrible time. If you don't start early, you have no...

Or ..... just maybe ..... dare they??? https://www.nfl.com/news/trey-lance-has-big-night-in-chargers-hall-of-fame-game-win-over-lions

Everything I'm reading out of Steelers camp seems positive. But I agree let's not waste our time talking about something that isn't on the table, my friend. The real question, if this doesn't fix itself sooner than later (or worse, it carries over into the preseason), is if they need to think...

Does Niko have complete and total control over this schedule? I know in football the non-conf games are signed years in advance. Also wonder how much influence Coyle has "look Niko, I want you to hit the ground running with WINS this first year, OK?" I made that up out of thin air, but isn't...

Not a fair comparison I know, but how does that compare to Europe (non-Russia) and Russia? Just curious

I think that's the answer, then. Greenard has been on fire this camp and they're apparently very pleased with the offseason progress of Turner.

Unfortunately, I think people need to dial down their expectations at least a bit. All QB's had a very rough day yesterday. I caught the end of camp coverage on KFAN, and they're even doubting if Howell should be the backup at this point. They brought up Kirk .... Man I hope it doesn't go...

You're right of course, but I think you know what I mean. Everyone in the stadium and watching on TV saw DeJean running with the ball into the endzone and then the team celebrating, with the refs having not blown the play dead and then initially signalling a TD. Even PJ wasn't immediately...

For sure. I mainly said it to say that, even if it was inadvertent ... doesn't matter, the play should've been blown dead once he did it.

As SG said, I agree with you in principle. So I'm just wondering, what is your response to European professional soccer leagues? As far as I know, they don't have caps and a few teams dominate the spending. But they remain very popular. Apples to oranges? I'd probably agree, just want to know...

Is this being used in the regular season this year, or just testing this in preseason? Spotting still the major hurdle

The whole controversy could have been avoided if the refs blew the play dead as soon as DeJean (inadvertently) made the invalid fair catch signal. There never should have been any "run back" to "take away".

Love this!!!

The only way you really ever level that playing field is something like the following: one way or another, every college player who wants to play for a Big Ten school this year (so this would be done early in the year, before spring ball starts) has to enter a "Big Ten draft". You go to the...

Agreed, and football is still more here, just like in most states. The "state of hockey" thing is just relative to hockey interest/participation in other states, on average or per capita.

Great post!! I think you've hit the three biggest issues and defined them well. Then it's a matter of what weight is assigned to each. For some posters here, they seem to be giving a large share if not all of the weight to #2. For me, that doesn't feel right in my gut (which I know is not...

Not Lincoln, but Omaha (about 1M population metro), about a 1hr drive away.
