How about Aaron Rodgers on the Jets? I'm used to him in a Packers uniform.

Normally the rule around here is not to post players right after they get traded (for example, go back and look at the Christian McCafferey post) as they might go own to have two "right" uniforms.

However, in Rodgers' case, it's unlikely he plays more than 5 years on that team, and unless he wins a SB, the Jets won't ever be his "right team".

TL;DR: Yes

My poor Bucks don't even have a "right" color scheme.

 

The #34 Bucks jersey should be iconic. But it's not because the three players who made it that way all wore very different versions of it.

It's interesting how each player who's worn it has been increasingly better than the last.

First is Terry Cummings. he wore both verions of the Irish Rainbow and made and All-Star and All-NBA appereance in each verion.

2x All-Star, 2x All-NBA, 1983 ROY. 19.4 pts, 7.8 reb, 2.3 ast

Next is Ray Allen. Wearing the 90s purple-era threads, Allen set the then-franchise record for most threes by a Buck (eventually broken by Khris Middelton.) 

3x All-Star, 1x All-NBA, 19.6 pts, 4.6 reb, 3.8 ast

Saving the best for last, we have Giannis Antetokounmpo. Wearing the 2010s-red and green for his rookie year, the Bucks switch to green and cream coincided with their best era since the 70s, as Giannis led the team to multiple 50-win seasons and a championship.

As of 3/15/23: 1x Champ, 1x FMVP,  2x MVP, 7x All-Star, 6x All-NBA, 5x All-Defensive, 1x ASMVP, 1x DPOY,1x MIP

As of 3/15/23: 22.6 pts, 9.6 reb, 4.7 ast

I want the Bucs to trade up to get Anthony Richardson (just so that their QB room would be 2019 UF's QB room all over again.)

Saints get Derek Carr, which likley means Aaron Rodgers is headed to NY.

Westbrook to the Clips.

 

Good luck to everyone involved!

Adam Silver foaming at mouth right now over the potential of a Lakers/Clippers or Suns/Mavs playoff series (or both!).

This move makes sense for Westbrook, but not for the Clippers. He gets to stay in his hometown of LA, and he gets to play with his former teammate and buddy Paul George. The Clippers get a non-shooting, poor desicion-making, ball-dominant player who's past his prime. The same issues with his fit with the Lakers will apply across the hall.

I don’t see what the controversy is. The matter has settled over 2 decades ago. It’s not some new revelation. It’s honestly just meme culture picking apart his past to make new content for there views.

All of that would be true is Malone actually settled or (even acknowledged) the matter. Had he decided to say something----maybe not even to the pubilc, maybe something to the mother----we'd be able to move on. But the internet is rightfully hanging this above his head until he addresses it.

Yup! I couldn't find a picture with this  of this year's game. 

I too was unable to find a picture; I had to screenshot a highlight reel to get that photo lol.

I like NBC's graphics setup better, but that new Fox setup is an improvement. I also liked that Fox's touchdown animation got rid of the static stripes and incorporated racing lights across the screen. 

That TD graphic is from SB LIV, part of the old package. 

Here is the new TD graphic:

Yeah…suffice to say, a LOT of baggage there with his awful allegations. I’m pretty uncomfortable with this too. If the NBA was going for a Jazz legend to fill that spot, they should’ve had Adrian Dantley or Darrell Griffith (Dr. Dunkenstein himself!) do it instead.

 

The NBA ought to know better than this.

The problem is, the casual NBA fan from New York only knows 2 players from the Jazz: Malone & Stockton (because of the 90s Finals runs).  This is likely the reason the chose him, as he's agruably the most well-known player of that franchise.

On the other hand, the NBA has consistently tried to (and done well with) educating the younger generations of the history of the league, and having Darrell Griffith would've been a great opportunity to do so.

Mahomes threw it long on purpose to sell it too. The bad throw gives the optical illusion that the hold was worse than it really was. 

That was actually brilliant by Mahomes. The refs were calling the game tight all day, letting some players get away with multiple penalties, so once he recognized the clear holding, he sold it to give the illusion like it was way worse.

It feels like a combination of these;

Jordan fans are probably some of the most insufferable fans to ever exist. If you think Jordan is the better player, that's fine. Everybody can descide who their personal GOAT is. Half of the country would agree. But trying to discredit the other player's every accomplishment by using the same tired "sIx RiNgZ" argument when it's not even applicable is extremely annoying.

I find myself going "oh my god shut up, Romo" at least six times a game. He's just annoying and he didn't use to be. His issues were evident during the Bengals-Bills game. His preferred guy wasn't playing well, but he couldn't STFU about great he is. Collinsworth does this too. If a guy is a good player you don't have to spend the entire broadcast GUSHING about him. Just be normal. 

 

You know who's great? Greg Olsen. His call of the Cowboys disastrous last possession against San Francisco is what every analyst should be. He's my new number one guy. 

I used to not like Olsen when he started, becuse he clearly showed bias (typically aginst the Cowboys) and used every instance to remind you he's a former TE. Now I thinks he's the inverse Romo becuase he's gotten better as time has gone on.

PHI finna run through KC for three quarters, but some Mahomes BS magic is gonna happen in the fourth.

40-day countdown starting......

Now.

Why not "Paramount Showtime" or "Paramount + Showtime"?

I swear, CEOs and large companies are much dumber than we give them credit for.

I'm surprised it ain't silver black and gold for the colors of the vegas teams

The logo is meant to represent the city, not the teams who play there.

This years' logo is teal and red, representing the desert and indigenous culture of AZ.

Only because they couldn't get thier first target:

The Grizzlies are really good about doing this. They often wear yellow accessories and it looks great. Will find some pics when I'm not in phone.
