In the courtroom the judge is asking the little boy, "Do you want to live with your mother?"
The little boy says, "No, she beats me."
The judge says, "Do you want to live with your father?"
"No, he beats me, too," says the little boy.
The judge scratches his head and says, "Ok, son, then who do you want to live with?"
Without a moment's hesitation the boy says loudly, "The Baltimore Orioles, because
they don't beat anybody."

Just catching up on sports news, looks like the Raiders have a big headache on their hands. Say they're going to suspend Antonion Brown:

"More on #Raiders WR Antonio Brown and Mike Mayock yesterday: It did not get physical, sources say. But after a screaming match, Brown told Mayock that he would hit him in the face and then punted the ball… and said, Fine me for that. "

haha

Maycock got mad because AB posted his fine up on Instagram, basically challenging the people in charge.

Grab some popcorn the season hasn't even kicked off (kick off in a few hours!)

Will AB last the season? I am taking the under...hahaha

Gruden has got to be shaking his head in disbelief.

Ah, that's right. NFL starts tonight, Packers at Bears. I'm interested in how the Browns will do this year. They're absolutely loaded.

Browns are in a tough division and just like the AB drama, the Browns seem to be one issue away from their own drama. I like the Ravens in that division.

 

[iowadawg]

Tonight, I go with da BEARS.

Browns have a chance, but they will blow it and still end the season losers.

It's going to be hard to beat that Bears defense.

 

[JB Lions]

Well, that game sucked, Bears lost, scoring a whopping 3 points.

The Bears offense has to do something if they want to win.

 

[iowadawg]

And that games again proves that I should never, ever, bet real money on any NFL game.

Looks like my team locked down the actual best receiver in the league:

"The Atlanta Falcons and Julio Jones have agreed to a landmark three-year extension that ties the star wide receiver to the team through 2023, the Falcons announced Saturday.

The $66 million extension includes $66 million in guaranteed money, with $64 million due at signing, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen.

"I love this city, and I'm committed to being a Falcon for life," Jones said in a statement."

"On Julio Jones’ three-year extension, 97 percent of the deal is guaranteed at signing; the previous high guarantee at signing for a non-QB was Trey Flowers at 74 percent."

Grab some popcorn the season hasn't even kicked off (kick off in a few hours!)

Gruden has got to be shaking his head in disbelief.

AB didn't even make it to the season, he's gone. Saw this video last night, he's recording phone calls and putting them on the internet. Is it him just being a diva, CTE stuff, who knows. Where will he end up? Watch the Patriots get him and roll to another SB. It seems they have the structure to keep him grounded, Moss did ok there, undefeated season before losing to Giants in SB. He's going to want to go to a team with a legit, franchise QB.

"Asked one AFC scout just now what the market will be like for Antonio Brown. One word: “Patriots.”

That be would nuts.

ha, he's a Patriot. They also have Josh Gordon back from (I lost count how many) suspensions. If they both stay healthy and out of trouble and Gordon plays up to what he's capable, Pats will roll, could be best WR tandem in NFL. They also have Edelman, Brady about to go off.

So Superbowl, Pats vs. ?

"The acquisition of Brown moved the Patriots past the Kansas City Chiefs and into the role of Super Bowl favorites at multiple Las Vegas sportsbooks. The Patriots went from 6-1 to 4-1 to win the Super Bowl at the SuperBook at Westgate Las Vegas. The Chiefs are 6-1."

Thank you for this thread! Sports teams, which I am PASSIONATE about:

Yankees: Shattered record for most HR hit in month, and other records; most INJURED players in a season. -yet still are tied for the best record in MLB, and playing for home-court advantage!

Jets: Darnold is our savior, youngest QB to start in HISTORY of the game, arrow movin up!

Knicks- They on the right track, but I'm inclined to mention won twice, total, last being in '73

NY Rangers: Same owner as the Knicks... Nuff said!

A couple of Sport fun facts:

Owner of "Golden Nugget Casino", owns Rockets, bought for $2.2 Billion, last year.
100% of Nets and Arena, the Barclays Center were just sold ~$3.4 Billion, RECORD Price.

Pat's are now dangerous. How do you even prepare to stop this recieving Corp.? Unbelievable!

It begins, the NFL season.

Mayfield threw 3 INTS for the Browns, Titans won big 43-13

The Ravens who you mentioned, buried the Dolphins 59-10, oh my. Just checking the stats. 643 yards of Offense. Lamar Jackson 17/20, 5TDs no INTs, 324 yards passing. Then they ran for 265 yards. Damn.

My Falcons lost, another long season. They need to find their running game again.

So for the AFC, it looks like Ravens, Chiefs or Pats. Early, early SB prediction. One of those 3.

I agree with the AFC predictions.

How about your early NFC predictions?

The Rams offense looks a little sloppy. Not sure they got it.

Not sure on the NFC, right now it's wide open to me. Every season there are some surprises. Have to watch a few games to start getting a better idea. But the AFC, I'm pretty confident it'll be one of those 3 teams, betting sites feeling the same. You never know, either of those teams lose their QB, they're pretty much done.

Notre Dame won 66-14
UCF won 45-27
Atlanta Falcons just won

Good football week.

Next week, #7 Notre Dame going to #3 Georgia. I don't think ND has beaten a top 5 team in like 15 years, something like that. This will be a big game, good chance to see where they're at.

Congrats on the Falcons win. That one went down to the wire.

ND vs Georgia is one to watch.

Patriots cut WR Brown after latest allegations

"In group text messages that include the woman, some Brown associates and his lawyer, Darren Heitner, Brown posts pictures of the woman’s children and her Instagram account, telling the lackeys, “let’s look up her background history see how broke this girl is.”

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nf...fter-latest-allegations/ar-AAHBa5b?li=BBnbfcL

Talented receiver, but will anybody touch him at this point?

Already got dropped by Nike the other day.
