Doesn’t that make the big 10 the big 12? But didn’t the big 12 lose Texas and Oklahoma to the SEC so then do they become the Big 10?

I agree, we should just find his car and keep keying it until he plays better *spits out shards of glass*

LOL, I'm not saying that either. Just cheer for the guy when it's his AB. Don't boo him relentlessly, but a standing ovation? Sit down folks. He can go wipe his tears with 1 of his $300 million bills. 

I'm 100% in agreement to support this city's players, let's just pump the brakes a bit.

The future of the RB position will be fascinating. The typical RB type (5'10, 215ish, 4.5/4.6 speed) doesn't translate to other positions except maybe safety.

No, the other type of standing O

Pretty soon there won't be any conferences.  Just my guess.

Even at league-minimum salary, the supply will be endless.

Arizona, Colorado and likely utah and asu are going to the big 12. They also added cincy, ucf, houston and byu

I think I suffer from shifty, white WR comparison syndrome. 

Well, he's no Wes Welker, he's no Danny Amendola, and he's not even Cole Beasley.

Didn't know Ryan was an Eagles fan

They're still getting paid millions and have the possibility of becoming legends/famous. So people will still play the position

I'll do it if nobody else is interested.  There are plenty of people who would be quite entertained to see me collide with an NFL LB

Ngata standing out and making this team at wideout would be a good thing. Could use someone else with size as depth.

They already have 14.  So Big18 is the new alternate moniker with the four Pac12 schools.

With the 2014 conference expansion, the divisions were realigned and renamed East and West. The East features 

Indiana,
Maryland,
Michigan,
Michigan State,
Ohio State,
Penn State, and
Rutgers.

The West comprises 

Illinois,
Iowa,
Minnesota, 

Nebraska,
Northwestern,
Purdue, and
Wisconsin.

He'd be replacing Pascal so not gigantic shoes to fill but still unexpectedly good for a UDFA. Honestly don't know what to make of him winning his reps vs Ringo though. That should be a tailor made matchup for Ringo; hoping it's Ngata being good and not Ringo being terrible.

This just in, Patrick Johnson has passed away!  (Totally kidding but man these guys are all over the place!!)

Big 10 hasn't had only 10 teams since Penn State joined in the 1990s.  Then Nebraska joined about a decade ago (actually 2010) and it became 12.  Then Maryland and Rutgers joined, making it 14, which its been for the past 5 or so years (wow, time flies, that happened in 2014).  USC and UCLA are slated to join in 2024... making it 16.  So, adding Oregon and Washington would make it 18.  

All they need now is two more teams and they can be the Big10(x2).

Pretty sure he grew up in Delaware.

Born in New Castle

Turner was having a HoF (Rolen floor) career trajectory and was the best player in the world at the WBC. It was a good signing.  I have no idea how he got the yips so bad or how he gets out of it but yelling at him won't help.

He's not Ben Simmons. Its a baseball funk. His effort and dedication are not the problem. Were we supposed to boo Harper during his homerun drought? Schwarber for his .180 average?

Booing is for turkeys who deserve it or for when individual games get out of hand. Its for showing you want regime change. (Kotite, Rhodes, Doc Rivers, etc) 

If fans want to encourage Turner with a show of support then I'm all for it. Its not soft, its strong.

Yeah Ive thought the same. Money will continue to landslide into the SEC where they "realign” everything into different divisions of the SEC
