Yes, until the kickoff of the season opening game.

I take it, you are aiming to become the next gergroy?

No, I was just checking if I still wanted to make some changes would I able to.

Can you change my #1 Draft Pick to the Redskins instead of the 49ers?

It's not quite that bad. Certainly unfortunate of course, but I'm sure everyone else will just step up again and take over for Nelson. Besides, it ain't like Nelson was Megatron, or anyone else whom our offense was centered around.



Well, decided to watch the beginning of the Packers game and wow they look good on offense.

That's true but their Super Bowl chances have dropped a lot. They can get through the season and NFC, but it'll be hard to win the Super Bowl without Nelson.

Chris Carter still knows what's what.

At the 2014 Rookie Symposium, Cris Carter and Warren Sapp instructed rookies to get a fall guy in case they got into any legal trouble. The above video was on NFL.com until this afternoon, when they deleted it.

While wearing his Hall of Fame jacket, Carter told them:

“Y’all not gonna all do the right stuff. I gotta teach yall how to get around all this stuff too. If you gonna have a crew, one of them fools got to know he going to jail.”



I'd be surprised at what Carter said, if my mind weren't blown by the notion of the NFL bringing in Cris Carter and Warren fucking Sapp as some kind of speakers for how rookies need to help prepare for life in the NFL.

Apparently Peyton Manning has been playing the last few years without the ability to properly grip a ball, or even feel anything in his fingertips. He also got sick last season which resulted in dehydration which resulted in the quad injury that pretty much ruined the season for him and us Broncos fans. Makes me feel better than a repeat of that is unlikely.

I hope it is all correct.

Thoughts on the season without any research and Steelers bias:

Broncos, Colts, Patriots, Covvboys, Saints got easy divisions, especially the Colts.

Ravens will dominate but Steelers vvill try to keep them in check, and then eliminate them in afc divisional.

49ers are looking at the worst season in years. Cardinals and Seahawks will have a good position to win.

Patriots will be fine during the season but lose a playoff game.

Packers without Jordy will require Aaron to use other people, this might be a good thing.

Chiefs are good but always choke in playoffs.

Lions or Vikings will have a decent season but Packers will probably dominate.

...you do realize there's a w key, right? You don't have to type two v's consecutively.

Anyway, that's a crazy number of upsets in your bracket. Certainly would make for a heck of a playoff season.
