I’m trying to convince someone ESP is horrible. What is the worst take you’ve ever seen him make? Needs to beat "Nikola Jokic is not an NBA champion because the nuggets rings are meaningless”

That MLB is overrated and he could hit HR off MLB pitching.

Most of his sports takes aren't data based, they're entirely subjective things. This isn't analogous to important life decisions.

Except it is. Because humans are dumb panicky animals that make itrational decisions based on emotion not data

This second part is true, but a sports take isn't a decision.

Choosing to divorce your wife because she called you a poopy head is a decision.

Saying the Sixers are better than the Nuggets isn't a decision, it's an opinion.

I always think of OCMD like I do Myrtle Beach.  It's an OK beach town but there's a varied crowd.  My preference at this point are the NC beaches like Topsail Island but even those places are getting more crowded.  

Yeah, I come here mostly because we have a house that has been in the family for like 50 years and I have relatives that live here and the eastern shore,

I would never buy here otherwise.

I think WR and CB are decent top 10 picks.   If you hit on a number 1 WR or CB on a rookie contract, it definitely helps franchise success.  My anectdotal feeling is that pass rushing prospects fare worse than DT's and OTs as top 10 picks.  My feeling is that a top 10 OT probably has the highest success rate.  

There are a few reasons I didn’t include WR or CB. The hit chance argument goes just as well for those positions. For every Julio Jones there’s a pile of Darius Heyward Bey’s and John Ross’s and Kevin White’s and Tavon Austin’s. Dline and Oline have anecdotally much better hit rates for true star players.

But it goes deeper than that. An average to above average player at a lineman’s position is a good pick in the top 10 if he has a long career. Brandon Graham pick 10 is a perfect example, I would be very happy taking him at that spot if I knew how his career would go, despite 1 pro bowl, 1 double digit sack season. Another 10th overall pick, Michael Crabtree was an above average receiver; he played 11 years, had 7500 yards and 54 TDS… and was a complete misfire. He’s simply not worth the value of a top 10 pick. L
 

The receiver not only needs to succeed at the NFL level, but he has to be a breakout star player or it wasn’t good value. A guard, a DT, a RT, a DE just need to be a solid starter for 2 contracts, even if he never makes a pro bowl, and you can justify the value there because of how important consistent lineman are. That’s a significant difference

Those look like old replicas. Nike logo is much closer to the Eagle, and much bigger. The Nike logo looks to be about the same size if not bigger than the Eagle.

also doesn’t look like the same logo. That Eagle looks bulkier with much shorter wings. Maybe camera tricks and it’s the same jersey as the other, or could be a new logo altogether

What's the guess on the pants.  White or silver?

If what they are doing are the true 90s throwbacks, they have to be silver...or whatever color Nike can make close to silver.

Looks like a new logo altogether. Wing tips look like they are pointing down vs up like in the two you posted and on the jersey in the tweet above, unless it's just camera magic like you said. Tail feathers look different too.

Good on him

 

That's my QB!
