best fantasy day ever

I was starting Brees that week in a league, and my opponent had Eli. Was a very high scoring fantasy week lol

Tfw you remember no team has ever done less with one of the GOAT QBs. Drew Brees' greatness has been squandered like no other player in history. The Saints have only managed the playoffs in 50% of Brees' career with the team, and even in a year where he won OPOY, they didn't even spur up a winning record. If it wasn't for an insane onside kick, he would be going down with Marino as the best QB to never win a Superbowl. Overall, pitiful on the organization's behalf.

ROMO

I think you’re joking, but just in case: Tony Romo isn’t remotely as good as Drew Brees.

September-November Romo was the man.

Detroit Lions president Rod Wood said he was unaware that Matt Patricia was indicted 22 years ago for an alleged sexual assault, but said the team had no regrets about hiring Patricia as coach, the Detroit News reported.

Patricia was a 21-year-old student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and on spring break in South Padre Island, Texas, when the alleged assault occurred, the News reported. Charges were filed in the case and Patricia and his friend, Greg Dietrich, were indicted by a grand jury of one count of aggravated sexual assault, but they were never tried in the case.

Lions president Rod Wood told the News he and general manager Bob Quinn were not aware of the allegation in Patricia's past when they hired him. He later told the newspaper he was comfortable with Patricia on staff.

"I am very comfortable with the process of interviewing and employing Matt," Wood told the News. "I will tell you with 1,000 percent certainty that everything I've learned confirmed what I already knew about the man and would have no way changed our decision to make him our head coach."

The News also reported APG Security, a private investigation firm with a corporate headquarters in South Amboy, New Jersey, and offices in 21 states including Texas, had requested the court files for Patricia's case in January. It is not clear whether or not the Lions had contracted the firm to run a background check on Patricia or if this was someone else.

The News reported the case against Patricia and Dietrich fell apart when the alleged victim did not respond to attempts to contact her in the weeks following the incident and decided she would not testify.

Sounds like something Belichick would leak since this never came up when he was with the Pats for over 10 years.

Rensselaer Polytechnic is a notorious party school, I'm not surprised. Go Weevils!

So when the best NFL draft held in history occurs in Nashville, next year, I better see a BG section.

Nashville is the best party city in the US behind Vegas and Miami. There is a reason it is the #1 or #2 most traveled to destinations for bachelorette parties and has the highest hotel rate in the entire US lol.

I've been all over the World and used to say Nashville was a terrible city. It is very easily one of the best cities in the US, now. The /r/nfl thread was ecstatic over the choice; random snapshot:

ill be in Nashville next week actually, heard good things. was hoping the predators would still be alive though for maximum shitshow potential

welt recommend me a good bbq place

[Weltall]

Edley's and Martin's are both good, but Edley's is godlike. I can send you a PM with much better food options than BBQ though. Where are you staying?

[tyven]

Nashville is surprisingly fucking lit

[Xno Kappa]

Nashville is a fun place, don’t get me wrong lol. Just not a spot I would recommend to anyone to willingly spend money to go there versus other locations.

Hit up Prince’s hot chicken mert. Easily the best hot chicken in the city.
