You are a very emotional fella. If you were to find a QB in the NFL to loosely compare Mahomes every one of them is going to be worse, but if there is a comparison it is Ben who is a hall of fame QB. After Ben won his 2nd Super Bowl he was also the second-youngest QB to ever win two super bowls.
Ben wasn't fat when he was 27. Father time catches us all. Either way similar body types as Mahomes. They are both husky guys. To believe that Mahomes will be slinging it like Brady when he's 43 is simply foolish. There is no reason to expect that. Mahomes has the higher ceiling and will be better than Brady ever was, but his shelf life is going to be shorter. [Reply]

Can you imagine being so desperate for championships that you count an in season tournament and a regular season Covid 1 as legit titles. Meanwhile legit titles from rivals "don't count" somehow. Lulz lulz lulz That is Bambi/Wickedson level shit. [Reply]

Mahomes is way too driven not to push himself to stay in shape into his 30s. Unless that personality trait somehow abandons him (and I can’t see that it would as long as he’s chasing Brady’s cumulated records), I’m not worried at all about that.
He’ll steadily lose his unreal scrambling ability over time but he will compensate for that with improvements in other areas (think LeBron becoming an elite 3PT and post option when he could no longer just barrel through 3 guys on every possession), [Reply]

If you're the Knicks and you're picking at the back of 2, don't you draft him just to fuck with the Lakers? Hell, the Nuggets should do it just to really get under his skin.
Nobody - NOBODY - is gonna draft the kid on his talent. But there are a few teams that will throw away some perfectly worthless 2nd rounder (again, they get sold every year) just for the very slim chance they can sell a few James jerseys in a year if LBJ decides to play there for a season. [Reply]

Somebody is gonna take that kid in the 1st round and pretend it was because he was good at basketball. [Reply]
Charles Barkley told us that if TNT loses #NBA TV rights, he'll become a free agent. He's unsure about "Inside the NBA" moving to another network because the show wouldn't be the same without Ernie Johnson. Ernie has said he isn't leaving Turner.
Man, regardless of how you feel about the nba, it's hard not to love the inside the nba crew. They gotta keep that together. The kind of fun and chemistry they have together is what all these other sports crews could only wish they could pull off. [Reply]

I've been watching Ernie since 1995 when I discovered cable. Hope TNT keeps the rights. [Reply]
