The Cardinals raised some eyebrows when they stuck that “home study hall” clause in Kyler Murray’s contract. In my view, they now have sounded a fire alarm by taking it out, and telling everybody about it. There was a reason that clause was in there—because Murray is an immature baby. And that’s the same reason they had to take it out—because Murray is an immature baby. The Cardinals just set fire to $230.5 million.
With Russell Wilson and Bobby Wagner out of the picture, WR D.K. Metcalf is the face of the Seahawks’ franchise. And there’s a smile on that face after Metcalf Thursday signed a three-year extension that includes $58.2 million in guaranteed money. In a league full of athletic freaks, Metcalf is among the very freakiest. That guy is fun to watch.
Now we’ll see if the Ravens can get a deal done with Lamar Jackson, who is serving as his own agent. Does he have a fool for a client?
Apparently, Kenny Pickett threw a pick at camp Thursday. So I guess the Steelers wasted that first round pick. He threw an INT at practice. Clearly, he can’t play…
I read that Baker Mayfield missed a couple of throws at the Panthers’ camp, too. See? That trade was a bust…
The Astros can’t handle the lowly A’s. But they own the M’s.
Ohtani says, “I’m with the Angels right now.” Translation. He can’t wait to get out of there, one way or another.
Yeah, I smiled when I watched that highlight clip of 40-year-old Diana Taurasi dropping 30 points. I’m partial to old folks.
Bucs’ Pro Bowl center Ryan Jenson exited the practice field on a cart Thursday. Left knee. Not looking good. And the Bucs’ offensive line could be in real turmoil.
What’s this? You mean Arch Manning is no longer ESPN’s number one ranked 2023 recruit? You mean he’s fallen to number two? And the guy who has moved up to number one—Los Alamitos, California QB Malachi Nelson—has “committed” to USC but now says he’s going to visit Texas A&M? Chaos. Mayhem. Madness. (And are the Aggies gonna steal the Longhorns’ thunder yet again?)
I don’t think I’ve ever had an eleven-hour conversation with anybody. Only billionaires like Commanders’ owner Dan Snyder are that interesting, I guess. At least members of that House committee apparently found him fascinating Thursday as they continued to try to get to bottom of the Stench That Is the Washington Commanders. Eleven hours? What were they doing? A brisket?
Happy 29th birthday to Dak Prescott, who says this is going to be the “golden year.” Hmm. Anybody who was around for the Cowboys’ last SB is now in the Golden Age Home.
