The Other Sports Thread (Titans, Vols, Dores, etc) - Part III

[PredsV82]

Regular season College Basketball is usually meaningless but goodness Kentucky needs a mercy rule in place

yeah, usually in games like that you put in the scrubs, but this year the scrubs are McDonald All Americans

 

[token grinder]

Basically. Our GM is just throwing away our prospects like day-old meat .

No way. I mean Fried and JP are good, and Fried might be in their top 5, but holding onto Renfroe, Wiesler and Hedges and getting all that is genius

If this is true, I'm out, I'm just going to support the Preds until Nashville gets a MLS team and then I'll have two local major league teams to support

Cutler to the Titans might work - until y'all play the Packers.

Look, I was born, but I sure as **** wasn't born yesterday

Theory is he's a Vandy boy, so getting home cooking away from the horrid crowds in Chicago might do him good.

But he IS Jay Cutler.

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

I will never understand teams going after veteran guys that have proven to be crap. Even if you think Mettenberger and Locker suck and aren't the QB's of the future, you're better off rolling with them until you find a QB you do like in the draft (I still think Mariota will be a good pro). Don't trade for expensive mediocre garbage like Cutler.

they should literally give up trying to 'fix' the QB postion and worry about filling skill roles. get someone who can manage the game. worry about a qb in a couple years.

At least he wants to come here (home) unlike Pretty Boy who ran off to Denver when he had the chance to be a Titan.
As a Vandy fan bring him on. Really he couldn't be worse that drafting Winston (immature) or Mariota (option QB that will never pan out)

just proves manning was smart after talking to the coaches and looking at the roster here. why would anyone have wanted to come to this trainwreck?

At the time the roster was pretty good, and a leader is supposed to make everyone else better correct? Manning jilted the Vols fans that worship at his feet, and the still worship him more. What do you call a Vols fan child born after 1994? "Peyton".

Well, yeah I'm shocked we still have our top prospects, I think my train of thought was noticing that our GM doesn't seem to be putting a ton of faith in a lot of them, none of whom he drafted.

Exactly. He's a student of the game, but it didn't take a valedictorian to see that with Bud being as old as he was and no really good transfer of power the Titans organization was going to head way down before it could go up. It takes more than a quarterback to fix that kind of broken.

For the love of all that is holy, Peyton Manning is Not. From. Tennessee. He's been on this earth for almost 39 years and he has spent 4 of them in this state. He's "from" New Orleans. I got so annoyed when people would call this his "home team" when he was considering coming here. He was born and raised in New Orleans. Dad obviously played for the Saints. If anything, the Saints would be his homecoming.

Do not try and tell Volunteer fans. Believe me there's plenty of Manning worship that claiming he's not from TN is sacrilege. I was ripped to shreds on Facebook when I said something about Manning not being a Tennessean during the Super Bowl
FYI: Neither is Cutler. Indy would be home for him.

Gooooooo Titans ... to LA or London, hopefully

 

[PredsV82]

Gahhhh looks like San Diego is gonna blow it and thus let Baltimore back into the playoffs...

If the Predators had Edmonton's record right now, would Bridgestone Arena look any better?

See, NHL games are actually fun to attend, NFL games not so much.

Don't remind me. Absolutely embarrassing. I have a pit in my stomach and likely a hangover tomorrow. At least the Preds are good.

Yep, that's my NFL team. They have been walking dead for about 3 weeks now. Today's result didn't surprise me at all. Didn't even bother laying a bet with vBookie on my poor Bolts.

Prolly, cause the Bridge only seats about a 1/4 that LP seats.

A fellow Charger and Preds fan. Nice.

That's awesome! I'm from western AZ originally and back in those days (pre Cardinals) it was SDC on my TV every Sunday.
