Of course he's just looking for more money. Of :censored:ing course he is. And per this graphtreon chart, he's making a lot less per month now than he was back in September of 2018.

That's more money than exists on the entire planet. Let's be very clear about something: this is terrible theology. God's commands have nothing to do with demanding others to act or dress a certain way. They have everything to do with telling the Christian to become more like Christ. Nobody can keep you out of the Kingdom of Heaven except yourself (and that's only if you follow Arminian thought - a Reformed theologian would say that once you've been elected to discipleship that not even you could resist the grace of God). Not to turn the conversation where it's not supposed to go, but stuff like that is bunk attention mongering.

Maroon Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 All kinds of sports analysts are postulating that Rivers to the Colts makes sense. First, as a Colts fan let me say that I have negative interest in Rivers wearing the horseshoe, and the absolute value of that interest is 100. Second, it makes zero sense. Ballard has shown a very future oriented, long term building approach to the Colts franchise so far, and I find it very unlikely that he'd want to take the team in the direction of putting an aging, declining Rivers at the helm of the offense.

AustinFromBoston Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Brady is also set to be a FA. But is there really any other team besides the Patriots that make sense for him?

Having one of the greatest QBs of all time on your team? Who could want to prove that he can win rings anywhere? Energize a fanbase even if for just a season or two? I mean, the Chiefs were interested in Montana even though he hadn't really played for two seasons and was in his late 30s. Admittedly, that's a whole lot younger than 43, even. But Brady also hasn't had the injury history of even a lot of the younger QBs.

dfwabel Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Monday Night Football to be "flexed" under new TV rights dead? and possibly return to ABC? SBJ excerpt: Quote Any flex scheduling changes would not take effect until new media rights deals kick in, starting with the 2023 season. Even though the NFL has not started formal negotiations with any networks, ESPN has let it be known that it wants to incorporate flexible scheduling as part of a new “Monday Night Football” deal. ESPN wants to be able to flex out of late-season games that carry no postseason implications, like the Dec. 24, 2018, matchup between the 6-8 Denver Broncos and the 3-11 Oakland Raiders, or the Week 10 matchup earlier that season between the 1-7 New York Giants and the 2-7 San Francisco 49ers. As an added enticement, ESPN has told the NFL that it would put “Monday Night Football” back on ABC if it ends up with the rights. ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” deal ends after the 2021 season, one season before the league’s other media rights packages expire. It’s not just ESPN, though. NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” likely wants more options. With some exceptions, the NFL typically announces its flex games for Sunday nights 12 days before kickoff, starting in Week 5. NBC likely wants that time frame to be moved up. The NFL can flex only two games into Sunday night between weeks 5 and 10, another point that NBC likely wants to be relaxed. Most clubs’ concerns have centered around road trip logistics and expenses, particularly with any potential flex involving “Monday Night Football.” Flights and hotel rooms would have to be booked for an extra day to account for the unknown, or altered at the last minute, which could become exorbitant.

Yeah, but I never had a home town connection to the Chargers. And the LA move was peak ineptitude that brings all of Spanos' other failings into focus. With no hometown connection and now no connection as a fan with Rivers moving on? What's keeping me there? With the Bucs? I've been watching with friends almost weekly each season the past three seasons. What can I say? It grows on you.
