I have to hand it to Chris Mortenson, you can tell he's struggling but he's doing a great job.
Tom. Janet and I were just there last week and I did put some money down at 18-1. We have sports betting just 15 minutes from our Hershey home at the Hollywood Casino, so that makes it convenient and dangerous when we are up there. M.A.T.G.A.
I read that he was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2016 and stepped away. The way he was talking seemed like he was having trouble getting the words out. I thought he may have had a stroke.
Mel Kuyper apparently thought that the teams, as a whole, did a good job. He rated all the teams' drafts, giving the Colts the only "A" but giving no score lower than a "C+".
The story will be interesting. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/giants-draftee-corey-ballentine-wounded-washburn-teammate-dwane-simmons-killed-in-shooting/ar-BBWnoSs?OCID=ansmsnnews11
I'd give the Saints a D+, Texans a D and Giants a D-. Gettleman "We'll find out how crazy I am!" LMAO feel sorry for Giants fans, OK not really https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ftw/2019/04/29/giants-gm-dave-gettleman-responds-to-nfl-draft-backlash-duke-quarterback/39419875/
If Jones pans out, the GM is a genius. If not, they'll run them both out of the swamps. As a Cowboy fan, I'm pulling for a draft bust! T
Rather face Jones twice a year than Haskins twice a year. Unfortunately, now I'll see Haskins too LOL. I watched Haskins in the Rose Bowl, he has a good arm and is accurate.
For real. I haven't heard much on this besides the initial report but I am also curious about how the Giants will handle this. What are the next steps when a player gets involved in something like this?? Its a pretty serious incident only hours after the draft. Giants just can't get away from their players getting shot - I remember good ole Plaxico Burress who shot himself in the leg on accident...
Most I've really seen written. Majority of the articles I've read seem to gloss over even mentioning the event itself. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/28/sports/corey-ballentine-shot-giants.html
When I see stories like this, I think of Len Bias. Get drafted. Celebrate. Things get out of hand. The cynical old me thinks that once these guys get drafted, make it big, etc. they need to cut ties with the folks back home. Family, yes, friends, no. T

The off season is officially underway! Cowboys Tyrone Crawford is in trouble with the law. On the bright side, it's only a misdemeanor, and there's plenty of time for someone to come through with a felony. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001030721/article/cowboys-dt-tyrone-crawford-faces-misdemeanor-charge T
