Re: Off Topic VII

Maybe reach is an understatement. We didn't come close to reaching because we were well past these being just simple reaches.

Jim on the morning show said he thought since they drafted a CB that they would have been interested in Thompson. He had no knowledge and will do anything to justify Gettleman. It was an overdraft because he could have been had in the mid second just like Funchess could have been had without a move up and possibly in the third at our pick. We massively overdraft these guys.
Eh Dave got the guys he wanted, where they were taken doesn't mean much and we probably weren't going to sign 9 rookies so mine as well trade some of them away.

Re: Off Topic VII
I don't mind trading but he might as well just not picked people and stayed where he was. We drafted a second rounder in the first and a third rounder in the second and it cost us 4 picks to pull off. That was terrible value by any standard. I just can't wait until we get a real GM here.

Re: Off Topic VII
Guess we'll see how the picks shake out. Getts seems confident, and I don't think he trades up for guys that he doesn't have a lot of confidence in. Time will tell.

Re: Off Topic VII
As usual, Floyd has another boring, yet incredible defensive performance. His defense is astonishing. Floyd should move up to middleweight or something. No one in the world can hit him, at all. He looked better after the fight than he did before the fight.
Edit: I know people wanted to see a knock out drag out fight, but that was just pure domination by Mayweather. Pacquiao afterwards saying he thought he won just made himself look stupid as hell. He didn't win anything. Mayweather is by FAR the superior boxer. If it was a street fight? Eh, probably a different story.

Re: Off Topic VII
It was a good fight last night. The two top fighters fought. It just happened to be that Floyd showed yall once again why he's far superior and made yet another great fighter look average. It's not that Floyd is fight nobody's but that he make them look like nobody's. This fight went exactly as I expected where I said Floyd will make Pac look like Marquez but if Manny tried too hard he would get knocked out. However Manny fell back because he didn't wanna get embarrassed and KOd on this grand stage with EVERYBODY watching.
But if Floyd woulda loss I'm sure it woulda been a good fight to yall. Lol

Re: Off Topic VII
The fight was pretty boring. It was a smart fight by Floyd but painfully slow to watch. Floyd looks scared a lot when he fights good fighters. It is a smart strategy to retreat and counter all the time but it makes for very boring TV. I was actually cheering for Floyd to win the fight but man can his style kill a fight when he is going against someone that he thinks can beat him.

Re: Off Topic VII
If Pacquaio woulda opened up more it wouldn't have been so boring because Pac woulda been sleep again. Floyd's opponents find comfort in going to decision and collecting their biggest paycheck ever. It's that simple.

Re: Off Topic VII
You mean Floyd finds it comfortable going for a decision. Only one guy attacked last night at all and he wasn't on TMT. Like I said it was a smart way to handle the fight but it was about as boring as anything else. Floyd was afraid to get into a punching match with Manny and so he hit and ran over and over. Like I said he wanted to win and did what he needed to do to pull it off but it is also the reason nobody really watches boxing anymore.
