im glad he didnt get the $300 million he wanted

also c-granderson is going to the mets

Mike Dunn was signed by the Orioles too, helps with the bullpen but still uncertainty on who the closer is. He's a Jim Johnson-esque guy. Lot's of groundballs I read.

Well, my former high school's first girl's basketball game is tonight, and I might do a bit of a personal play-by-play there as well. Should be fun.

Our team actually has a player that's ranked in the Top 25 players in Michigan by the Detroit News, so that's cool.

If the Texans get the first pick, I'd choose... Derek Carr, ironically. What a coincidence if that happened.

Why? Teddy Bridgewater is the next Geno Smith, and his college stats aren't super, super impressive. The only reason people knock on Carr is because of his brother, who wasn't as bad as people say he is.

Derek Carr, at best, is a 3rd-5th rounder at QB. Aren't many spectacular QBs in the draft this year.

Also, Teddy Bridgewater:

Well Dish, I agree in that there's no way I'd rank Carr over Bridgewater. However, Carr is still gonna be a first rounder, maybe even a top-10 pick

Haha, neither am I. Recorded it last night.

Heard mixed reviews about it, though. What did you think?

Well, I agree with the majority that Carrie Underwood's acting left a lot to be desired, but all in all, I think it was pretty well done, despite some extreme audio compression on my local NBC station. Plus, I liked what NBC did at the beginning with all the old logos animated with the voice-over saying that something like this hasn't been done in 50+ years.

Fun fact: Ratings-wise, it tied The Big Bang Theory for the top spot on the night.

my qb ratings:

Bridgewater - Definitely top-10 pick, top 2 QB
Manziel - Top 10 pick but won't fit that well in the NFL
Lynch (NIU) - 3rd-5th round (versatility)
Carr (FrSt) - Late 1st-early 2nd round
Logan Thomas - 6th round-undrafted
Stephen Morris - 5th-7th round
McCarron - 1st-2nd round
Boyd - 2nd-4th round

um yeah idk other qbs

wut?

I was just saying it would be crazy to take Bridgewater over Carr. I don't know where you guys are getting these late round projections from. With Mariota going back to Oregon, Carr is still gonna be a top-10 pick

I suppose he can throw well, so maybe 2nd round.

I dreamed last night that the Rangers were playing at home, and I was there, and Adrian Beltre got a single, and then died on the field from something called "#45". I have weird dreams. Then later after that, everyone decided to play basketball, but there were 7 girls and 9 boys so I had to play on the girls' team...

I have really weird dreams.

You know what, the Mountain West title game is tonight on CBS, and Fresno State and Derek Carr is playing. I'll try to watch, and form my own opinions on him.
