Good News but still a long way to go

 

[drayer54]

This cowboys draft class is going to be on the wall for awhile. Can't wait to see him and Sean Lee!

From someone that's had nerve damage and surgery in the past in a limb, that shit hurts as it begins to fire.

4.5? 4.5? Wow!

I hope that while they were at it, they install a sensor to identify pansy offensive linemen that want to tiptoe around, sneak up behind him, and give him a push after the whistle blows!

Good for the Boys for drafting him, but I still wish they would've taken the trade from da Bears for that pick.

 

[Rack Em]

That's funny because the gif is appropriate and it's probably your favorite beer

 

[ND Fan Vancouver]

Hahaha!! Best gif I've seen in a while! Loved that skit

Burn! I'm just getting lit up with the gay jokes this morning.....hahaha

 

[Whiskeyjack]

I prefer the bit that comes right before it:

 

[ACamp1900]

It's been so strange rooting for the Cowboys but I'm slowly getting used to it.

 

[Luckylucci]

My favorite draft pick the Cowboys have ever made. Not only do I think he's going to be a star, but he's one of the easiest players to cheer for. Great ambassador of the game.

You should probably jump off that burning Browns boat anyhow.

Just prudent, really....

 

[ACamp1900]

That will never happen... I'll die a Browns fan.

But, because I'm a Browns fan I have to fill the emptiness somehow... I choose to root for the teams that my fav ND players play on... I was a Giants fan for years there with Tuck... now I'm on Dallas and Minnesota.

I'm not a Browns fan because (thank God) they left town during most of my childhood, but I *am* from Northeast Ohio and it's really something how loyal Browns fans are to a team that has given them nothing but misery their entire lives. I know people pissed the Cavs won a championship because they wanted their beloved Brownies to be the team to break Cleveland's drought.

That pathetic, miserable organization really doesn't deserve them.

I jumped on the Dallas bandwagon this year because I drafted Ezekiel Elliot in every fantasy league I was in. He won me two championships.

But then I found out during the year that I could just kind of root for them in general with sincere hope that they won, and not just for good stats from Elliot.

I love it. If he comes back 100% he will be a Pro Bowler. I cannot wait to see him play in the NFL.

This is EXACTLY why fantasy football is evil. You grew up loving your chosen team, and no sometimes you are rooting for the guy playing against that chosen team...that is just plain wrong

It's 2017. I feel depressed enough knowing that I was 3 when Notre Dame won its last national title. It's gotta be extra difficult knowing *my dad* wasn't alive when the Browns were last a powerhouse.

I hate FF... I can't watch games with my firends anymore because they only want to watch red zone and shit like that bc of their fantasy teams... I.Want.To.Watch.A.Game!!!!

Don't worry the Browns will win one soon................... don't know what to tell you about Notre Dame tho...

I usually bench those guys to prevent any conflict of interest.

However, since the Bengals were ass this year, I didn't take that into account at all late in the season.

Never. Flip back-and-forth between the CBS and Fox games AT MOST. Usually just keep the Bengals on for its entirety, though.

Don't worry the Browns will win one soon

Early entry for funniest poster of the year then?

I watch Redzone soley because it's free and I can see whats going on in multiple games. As a San Fran fan in PA I can never see anything going on with their games (Not that you need to see a dumpster fire). One of the biggest reasons I like CFB over the NFL is the amount of games in one day I can watch.

Pro Bowl? He's got HOF potential if he's 100% right.

I've never seen a LB'er as athletic as he is. Honestly.

If he was 100% and playing for the Cowboys right now in these playoffs, they'd be a lock to make it to the Super Bowl.

 

[Junkhead]

The worst is watching the stats from a guy on your fantasy team, but having to face the same guy when your opponent has him in a different league! Or when you have a WR, but your opponent has that WRs QB. Ugh. Anyway, get better Jaylon!
