So, Garrett is hoping Daniel Jones floor is Romo 2.0.

I like the Rams new uniforms.. I just wish they'd have kept the traditional horn design on the helmet.

I actually like them too. I like the traditional Rams look and this is close to that.

The Warner/Faulk/Holt era uniforms sucked.

Yeah I don't think much of Daniel Jones. I think he is a very mediocre prospect with the fatal flaw of god awful pocket presence.

That's a pretty odd flaw.

Funny that this topic should come up today. Coincidentally, I was watching a replay of Chiefs/Ravens last night and while watching the on-field action, I noticed that I barely saw the crowd. But their audible reactions were apparent. And it occurred to me that under the current circumstances, that sound could be piped in during the broadcast to add to the at-home viewer's experience and enjoyment. It would 'feel' more like a normal game, even if it might not look like it.

And to be honest, for the short term, they might even be able to add in some prerecorded fan shots, similar to what they do in the Madden video games. Desperate times call for desperate measures sometime.

Whatever they need to do to accomplish having a football season.

By September, I think fans will be in the stands. Just my gut feeling. I think this virus has spread much further than people realize and will lose most of it's steam by then.

That's crazy stuff. If it's true and those guys are convicted, I'd have to think that their careers are over.

Yeah, that's generally not something you get probation for and I don't know about New York but in Texas, you must serve at least half of an aggravated sentence.

I just read a news article about it and they mentioned that if convicted, he's looking at a minimum sentence of 10 years. According to their interpretation of the law, that was required and not something that could be reduced any lower, only that it could in fact be greater than 10 years, but not less.

Last week I watched a couple of innings of a live Korean baseball game that ESPN was airing and they were doing this. It was just typical ambient crowd noise that you hear at any sporting event. I really didn't notice much of a difference until a big play was made and I didn't hear the louder crowd reaction that you'd typically hear.

Thy were in South Florida (Miramar) where the minimum sentence is 10 years if they are found guilty.

Also, I read that these idiots actually rolled up in luxury vehicles during this robbery. Lamborghini and Mercedes Benz. Bro, you couldn't have tried to blend into your environment and found a run of the mill Honda Civic or some shit? :lol

I lived on the west side of Miramar, FL for four years and there aren't any Lamborghinis driving around that part of South Florida unless they're lost. And that was a fairly nice middle class area. Over in east Miramar where its a lot more run down and urban development is lagging, Lambos and flashier Mercedes Benz vehicles would stick out like a sore thumb even more.

No jail time and a four game suspension. That's usually how these things shake out.

Looks like it's a minimum of 15 years if convicted.
