I had never seen a linesman so sad to call an offside.
This was for the first Korea goal. The scorer was "offside" but he got the ball from Kroos which validated the goal. I always remember this because that's an impossible call for the human eye and the very reason why VAR was invented

I feel like there won’t be such a big change. I mean Leftwich and Bowles called their own plays anyways.

He’s gonna be in the front office. So he’ll still have an impact

He'll be the replacement in the ring of honor where Gruden's name was.

If there wasnt that rumor of Brady trying to get Bill fired when he was a Pat
Id say no
dim kettle
I don't think so. When BA first came to Tampa he said it would be a short time and wanted to grow coaches to take his place. Hence why Leftwich was calling plays on the offense.
Now we'll wait 40 days to see if he unretires. 
rustic ore
yall think brady had anything to do with dis?
Would he really push out an offensive minded HC who he won a chip with for a defensive minded one who failed as an HC before?
rustic mountain
He wanted to push a 6 time sb winning head coach
For Bill O Brien
I would not put that past Brady at all
dim kettle
Yeah but we're also talking about a 6 time SB champ who was also GM getting rid of all his friends. BA only said mean things to his QB.
rustic mountain
I mean, Brady lost all his friends over the years. I get it but I am saying it isn't unfeasible for him to do
He didn't push BA out
But I would never be shocked to hear "Brady forced BA's retirement"
dim kettle
If there was anything, it probably was very small. I think the discussion would turn to "Did it really matter?"
BA was on his way out anyhow.
rustic mountain
Yeh
Don't really matter to me
For one, not my team
Two, unlike a fuck ton of pats fans, I don't really give a shit what Brady does anymore lol
dim kettle
Like, BA moving up to the front office hurts a little considering he was a piece that taught players like Mike Evans and Lavonte David how to be winners. But at the end of the day, Leftwich and Bowles were really the ones creating the gameplans on both sides of the ball.
rustic mountain
Yep
Which is a helluva lot better than what Bill has decided to do
Joe Judge and Matt Patricia helping on offense and defense

Still a lot of time for Bill to give the Bucs more toys to play with at bargain bin prices.

He’s been carried by great scouting lowkey. This is a guy who had a stacked Marlies team and won a cup there

It would be nice for the Leafs have a superstar defenseman. But Dubas needs to hire the right HC. Between his superstar talent choking and just sus coaching.

You know they only stat PK based on allowing goals. Almost never on how many wide open shots a team has. I swear whenever the Leafs are in the PK they leave one guy wide open in the slot.

The record would be good for 4th in the East and that's with some pretty important players injured for the Nuggets. I think Jokic literally missed 15 FGs in the entirety of march. Embiid is out the race in my eyes. He's not been playing close to where Giannis or Jokic have been
celest zephyr
yeah that's fair and with harden on his team his case definitely is falling off

it'd be 5th in the east which is the same as the west rn

You make it sound like Jokic isn't also having a monster season
He is, but he’s the 6th seed in the west, even with the difference being only two games compared to the Bucks being the second seed and potentially getting the first.

You can't really just hand wave away the part where he's only 2.5 games behind the Bucks. And DPOY and Scoring title are separate awards from the MVP for a reason. Jokics supporting cast has been weaker than Giannis. Hell the 2nd and 3rd best players on the Nuggets have basically been out since the start of the season

Why punish a player for having a good team? I don’t agree with that. And though those awards are separate, they shouldn’t be exclusive to the MVP. There have been players that have won those awards that have also won MVP. There have been precedents before.
celest zephyr
also don't they show the impact of the player
if giannis is one of the best scorers and defenders in the league then clearly he's having an amazing season
jokic is insane on offence but he's at best a neutral/slight positive on his own end
also yeah i get it if its talking about a guy like book, morant, tatum who's been good this season but clearly only has their case due to team success

It's not punishing a player for having a good team. It's providing context to the situation. And the context is that Jokic has the Nuggets 2.5 games behind the Bucks without his 2nd or 3rd best player. Hell I don't even think a player on the Nuggets beside Jokic is averaging above 15 points a game
