he can't possibly be worse than ben at this point

With the money they're paying Ben. You have to start him.

He does, but the Steelers are a stubborn team.
rustic ore
You don't technically need to start him though, especially if he's the primary cause for why their O is bad
If Haskins is the better option then even though Ben is overpaid for what he is now I'd think you'd just have to take that price tag on the chin and bench him
dim kettle
The same organization that doesn't fire HCs and GMs they "retire" or "Step down"
dim kettle
The only way Haskins plays is if Ben get's "injured"
honest umbra
ben never gets injured
u can run a truck on him
plus hes almost synonymous to the steelers image now
it'll be very hard to bench him
esp if its for haskins lol
celest zephyr
don't see the point in getting haskins if ben sucks and he doesn't play

Oh silly man, Big Ben getting "injured" is just a nice Steeler code way of saying benched. It's so the Steelers don't look bad.

It's funny to think that it came down to the Bucs game to kill me in the predictions last week. 
Can't pick against them though.
Also, was I really the only one who picked the Chargers to win?

What a sad stretch for the Padres to end the season. Poor Blake Snell thought he was probably going to a better team. And now has to watch the top team in the AL in October.

I just love how we traded our second best pitcher, (Glasnow is better). And somehow are even better without him this year.

You know, if the stadium was in Tampa.

St. Petersburg is where a lot of retire people are. Yet the media loves to ignore that.

i mean i dont think media can be blamed for that
its not their fault the ownership is making these awful decisions
matter of fact is rays are a contending team and should be bringing in fans but aren't
the surrounding situations fall on the ownership, similar to the A's

No, I didn't mean it like that. More in a trash talk way.

oh yea true

It takes about 40 minutes from Tampa to get to St Pete. Then you have traffic and a bridge to go through. And then there's nothing but one-way streets. It's a nightmare you can only imagine if you live here.
And in a smaller market like Tampa/St Pete area. Not a good combination.

that is legitimately awful
all of LA's teams play in the center of LA downtown or 10-15 mins of it
only reason it takes us 40 mins is becuz of the traffic lmao
getting from vin scully street (right next to dodger stadium) into dodger parking lot is 20 mins within itself
dim kettle
LA is always gonna have bigger crowds because obviously, bigger market.
honest umbra
ya ik but you can prob use other cities as examples
dim kettle
Of course.
Marlins have their stadium in downtown Miami and don't have a lot going. But that's an front office problem rather than interest problem.
The place would be packed if they didn't blow up the core every 5 years.

Mrazek has had injury problems lately so hopefully he stays healthy too
robust grotto
the Leafs actually have an interesting forward group. Bunting was a good pick up, same w Kaše if he can stay healthy
Hopefully for his sake, Liljegren can make the damn team out of camp
https://twitter.com/helenestjames/status/1443601902764273669?s=21 damn that blows, sorry Wings fans
Speaking of Wings, I’m excited for Seider. I was lucky enough to see him in person a few times for Germany. He’s a monster. Hronek is also one of my favorite defenders in the league.
sweet tree
he said the tension between the president and the manager hurts the team, as for the xavi thing he said he should wait it out given he might need to make tough decisions on his former teammates (pique, busi, alba etc), which that's fair.

For his development he really needs more NHL time at this point
It’s been 5 years since his draft year
celest zephyr
good teams aren't development places for borderline players
that's what it is
if they have enough good guys to play and good prospects who are younger
then a guy like him ain't getting the chances he'd get on a team that sucks
the leafs are a deep team. they don't have room for him and if they did they'd rather several other prospects get that chance over him
robust grotto
Mmm I see what you’re saying but even Tampa finds a way to get their kids involved. Ross Colton last year being a great example. The NHL season is long, there’s no reason why Liljgren can’t be a 7th D / rotation guy at worst. I can’t speak about the other prospects though. I know Sandin is definitely in the lineup but if someone else jumps Timmy then it’s obvious he’s not going to work out
I feel like Siren screaming about playing your first rounders hahaha but yeah, idk, 5 years and how many of those on the Marlies? It’s def time to graduate for him. But I respect your opinion!! There aren’t many teams with more to lose than Toronto so I get it
dim kettle
lol. Hockey first rounders are usually a lot different from NFL ones. Have to take time to still develop and if the prospect hasn't really shown much in the AHL or whatever, is there a point of bring him up besides the injury case? uh.
But for the Leafs, it really doesn't matter who they bring or don't bring up. What's gonna matter for Toronto is if Matthews and Marner can show up come playoff time. Nothing else matters.
Like, for the Lightning, they brought people up like Colton and Mathieu Joseph because they basically have no other choice to with the cap they have.

celest zephyr

wet onyx
good point
celest zephyr
yeah for the leafs they don't need to bring up kids and get them involved since they aren't in such an absolute cap crunch and can afford to bring in vets and guys who have shown they are capable in the AHL.
plus its all mathews and marner as siren said along with travares and nylander
if all of the big 4 don't perform they won't win
robust grotto
I get it and like I said you guys have a lot to lose so why bother with those type of players who could make crucial mistakes
robust grotto
unfortunately true
celest zephyr
sandin and i think dermott made costly turnovers
robust grotto
But if Dermott or Holl were on their final year of their deals I do think Liljegren would be getting some time just to see what they have, but that’s not the case
dim kettle
The PP last year for the Leafs was a total joke that only intensifies when you think of the division they were in the pandemic, and the top stars didn't show up when it mattered most.
robust grotto
arguably the second weakest division
celest zephyr
PP was on fire and then it sucked
overall yeah in terms of having 4 actually playoff worthy teams no
the predators were one the blues were one and they both sucked
dim kettle
You can only imagine how much worse the PP can get getting back to the regular divisions, with Price, and Vasy, and Bob.
celest zephyr
honestly the leafs need a better coach
it isn't talent that's the issue
its just how its used
robust grotto
Who’s the planned starter ? Campbell ?
celest zephyr
they just couldn't find a working lineup and to be honest didn't seem like they tried enough to find one
idk probably. I don't care for preseason though
robust grotto
Ofc, hockey is impossible to really take much from pre season
celest zephyr
None of them are good enough to outright start or bad enough to not be considered for it
robust grotto
Gotcha. I’m sure they’ll split the net as evenly as they can
dim kettle
You only watch pre season to see the top prospects before they're sent back to the farms.
celest zephyr
it'll probably be based on injuries, who's played a lot lately, who's currently doing well, etc.

honest umbra
win a SB and beat tom brady
dim kettle
Carr and LT are talking about the team trying to save Fields from himself. And all I can say is, what's stopping that from happening Year 2 or year 4?
honest umbra
all i gotta say
all rookie qbs have sucked
but they aint benching tlaw or mac
just let fields play
though its a bit diff because those two qbs dont have viable backups
im on the burrow > tlaw train though
dim kettle
Really am tired of all the excuses coaches and former players have made about the rookie QBs over the years. Matt Stafford played for an 0-16 Lions team. Sam Bradford played for a 1-15 Rams team. They sure had a hell lot more adversity on the offensive side of the ball than Fields or Lance can imagine.
Nagy didn't even give Fields a chance to get the starting job. Makes you wonder why he didn't even get 100 yards passing.
honest umbra
if u rlly give up on someone after 1 game where ur OL was absolute trash
u prob shouldnt have a franchise

It's the Bears way. They tired it with Grossman and Mitch. The team never learns.

(Which many can argue it should have an asterisk in front of it considering the competition they were facing).
From my experience watching hockey though. 2 year extension usually tell me, "perform better or you're fired" type of situations.
Also, NHL pre season hockey is on TNT rn.
celest zephyr
Yeah that’s why I’m fine anyways
If he doesn’t perform he’s gone
The leafs in the past would have probably found a way to not win that division
Keep in mind that the oilers weren’t a bad team
They also didn’t just win they led for almost the entire time
honest umbra
arnold different
dim kettle
Just because the Oilers weren't a bad team doesn't exactly mean they were good either. Even the Habs really weren't that good. Granted, obviously they made it to the Finals this year. But they were down 3-1 to the Leafs without Tavares for a reason.
celest zephyr
The leafs were a good team last season
They comfortably beat other teams in their division
I really can’t say the past leafs would have done that
The 2019-2020 leafs would be squabbling over second place
dim kettle
Yeah, that can't be taken away. But many will say it didn't need to take much effort to do that either. Especially compared to other divisions. It's like the Cleveland Indians for many years. Played in a weak ass division and wondered why they always got their ass kicked in the playoffs.
celest zephyr
that's arguable
at the end of the day other divisions had teams like the predators, blues and stars either as playoff teams or fighting for them
i wouldn't call that good competition either
its like all other divisions there's good teams and there's bad ones
dim kettle
They also had the Hurricanes and Panthers. You're telling me the Jets and Habs are comparable to them? uh.
celest zephyr
okay but my point is they still played a bunch of games against bad teams
which boosted their win total
playing 4 actual playoff teams or like borderline isn't the easiest competition
there's also only 7 teams not 8
dim kettle
It's true you play against what you have. But that doesn't mean people can't question and still have questions about a team going back into normal divisions..
celest zephyr
i'm not saying the division was strong only that it wasn't oh canadian divsion sucks

Regular divisions don't even matter in the NHL. Last year was different though because what you had in your division were the only teams you were facing.
celest zephyr
fair enough
idk at least for the leafs they are the leafs
they are still a good team
the habs sure are definitely questionable
dim kettle
The Leafs will get the 5th or 6th seed and who knows what happens from there.

so the game london got this year is jets vs falcons?

what did they do to deserve this?
if you're really trying to promote the game, why such awful teams
