The Flatty award, called the Alma-Matty, is for blindest devotion to a player from your alma mater.

Sam Howell with Smitty and Jalen Hurts with LT are embroiled in a hotly contested campaign.

LT, though, may prevail as the winner using experience from his previous victory with Demarco Murray

Could you imagine the storm if Schmitty had graduated from Princeton?

All I can say is if we had some Cinderella story and yet clearly underskilled QB making his brief moment of fame based on the fact he is a dork that lives at home with the rest of his Mafia family, I would be sickened.

So far Zac Taylor is making things easy for Browning.

Nah.

It just means the parents were concerned enough to allow the child to use phonetics in their first name. It provided them a sense of freedom and expression.

Now, I realize it may be significant in other cultures, I doubt a jacked up first name in general is carrying on a family tradition. Sometimes it can be cruel result of a kid not being able to spell in the first grade and someone comes up with something that works in terms of how it sounds.

Or sometimes you just name your kid "Nah-Shon" because that is what you say to them all the damn time and then it gets shortened with no apostrophe and it sticks and shit.

I am extremely pleased we have zero (0) hyphenated name players.

Even the apostrophes appear to be under control, so that is also a good thing.

We need to spend a premium draft pick on a cornerback with a name like Ty'quandre Johnson-Williams III.

Bonus points if he has multiple nose rings and insolent hair.

This would be particularly annoying to me and of course you would enjoy the schadenfreude.

I realize it's New York and that affects things but it's like you don't even have to be good anymore if you have an angle.

Ja'marr Chase with the big play.

I will say that the apostrophe is slightly less annoying to type than the hyphen.

We've been chattering for 20 years now. Are we really gonna be doing this in 2043?

With flying cars, holodecks and robot servants, we really still gonna be looking at each others' avatars and making Samsung Milf and nipple references?

Don't know if that's pathetic or a brotherhood.

I will be likely taking a dirt nap in twenty years.

But if I am still posting, I don’t think whomever is still here will appreciate it.
