Miserable Milk Mustard!!! I was listening to my stereo at full blast and Hank Jr. scared the everliving Pikachu shit out of me!

It's been there since last year, I've just been too lazy to take it down.

Watching Jameis Winston do his thing in preseason was pretty incredible. Tampa had nothing going for them in his rookie year so they just let him sling it, and he did quite well. Proven that he can carry the team on his shoulders and make great plays out of nothing. I think he'll emerge as the great QB of his era. He's a Super Bowl caliber QB in my opinion. Tampa just needs a more complete offensive talent.

Derrick Henry looks to be a steal for Tennessee. He'll probably lose out to Elliott for offensive rookie of the year, but his patience at the line and acceleration after the cut is high level. No second-guessing, just go. Turn 0 yards into 2, 4 into 7. He'll be the franchise player for Tennessee. If Mariota can improve his decision making in the clutch and learn the deep ball, Tennessee could be a playoff team.

The Pats probably won't miss a beat with Janeane Garofalo starting the first four games. The four games are against four playoff contenders, though. 2-2 or 3-1 out of that stretch would be a positive for New England, even if the GOAT of all time Tom Brady was quarterbacking those games. He gets a warm up game against Cleveland in his first game back, though. Would rather see him face that Denver D again right off the bat.

Feel bad for Romo, Von's gonna Von, hope Bork Osweiner stinks it up in Houston, and Kaepernick can stay seated on the bench all he wants.

No worries about the Hank Jr. thing it gave me a good laugh!


Winston is the real deal talent wise. But, he flat out raped that girl and Florida State bought it off. I hope he breaks his leg. It's hard for me to even pull for FSU anymore and they have been a favorite of mine. Not shooting that at you Jason... he just disgusts me completely.

And TRUST me when I say this... I'm not always right I know and I don't want sound like John the Baptist, but there is one who is coming next season for whom Jammys can't hold his jock strap. Deshaun Watson is Cam Newton with Marino's deep ball and what may be the scariest is that his football intelligence is starting to remind me of Manning in Tennesee... I don't throw that out often even for a Clemson player. If he stays healthy he will be a 1st ballot HOF.

I've always felt bad for Romo. He needs to hang it up while he can walk... he's not as good as Dak Prescott now anyway.

Henry may have the chance, I think Elliot will get hurt early. I'm now really glad Miami didn't draft him after hearing what he's accused of... who let all these female abusers loose. Man, people really need Mamas these days. Problem for Henry is that he's a Bama Back... meaning he literally won't have as good of an offensive line in the NFL - see Trent Richardson. I wish him well though, he's a good kid.

Watch out for Jakeem Grant a mighty mite in Miami for a sleeper ROY candidate! He looked amazing in preschool preseason Check out some of his highlights!




I'm going to do something a bit different this year with my draft preview... I'm working on a 2-part kind of thing maybe more parts. I'm going to do one pretty soon while it is at the beginning of the college year with some players to watch now. It looks like this might be the best NFL draft in the last 20 years, maybe even ever! Aside from 83' with Elway and Dan I can't think of another with the potential of this one. Just freaking Leaonard Fournette alone is the love child of Ricky Williams and Herschel Walker!

And then, of course, I'll come back and take my medicine before and after the draft to admit to my mistakes and take credit for the hits.

Grant was mighty impressive in that highlight video with those jukes. He'll see a ton of press coverage, guaranteed. I also like that he didn't kneel during the National Anthem.

SPOILER: Click to show

{This is why kneeling is so frowned upon}

I guess overall I'm glad we only had one Bronco do it, considering just about every team had at least a few players kneeling, or even worse, holding up the Black Panther fists. Many people turn to football to get a break from politics, but now we get to deal with it at every game. Thanks, Kraepernick.

I'll end with this random prize video from Dan Marino.

"Fuck it, send it in".
lol. Savage Dan.
