- Uh... Wasn't Retro Girl fairly young? Like early 20's? Forbes is 49. - TWuG Aug 18, 13:39
- Copley? Suddenly, I care about this. -- nm - David Aug 18, 13:37 7
  - Makes sense. They do bad casting, and you are on board. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 13:37 6
    - You...don't like Sharlto Copley? - David Aug 18, 13:39 2
      - I like him quite a lot, mostly because of this scene. -- (link) - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:43 [youtube]
      - Not for the Walker role. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 13:41
    - Realizing I know nothing about the character ... Copley is great. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:37 2
      - Christian Walker is a former super hero, clean cut by the book cop. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 13:41 1
        
        So you're saying it should've gone to Karl Urban -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:44

      - I've already committed to keeping him this year. -- nm - Was Bar Was Aug 18, 13:23
      - pros - undeniable talent, cons - himself, Manziel/Hoyer -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 13:22 16
        
        cons = himself is absolutely perfect -- nm - David Aug 18, 13:31
        
        [deleted] 6
        
        I honestly think it'll be 8 games or less for him. If they were gonna suspend him for the year, they would have done it by now. - Inigo Aug 18, 13:27 5
        
        If it's not the full season, they're giving him a pass to make the Manziel Show more entertaining. -- nm - David Aug 18, 13:38
        
        Course, I have to then weigh the idea of a big-time 5 or 6 game player given he's an idiot - Will Hunting Aug 18, 13:28 3
        
        Possibly, he is a knucklehead. However, I think the NFL's marijuana policy is gonna change drastically very soon. -- nm - Inigo Aug 18, 13:30 2
        
        yep. four games for a joint versus two games for knocking out a girl seems....wrong -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 13:36 1
        
        "can I hit that?" - groiny Aug 18, 13:40
        
        The QB's don't matter, he put up a 2k pace with Brandon Weedon, Hoyer and the other jokes last year. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 18, 13:23 7
        
        I know, but I'm afraid Manziel would rather scramble than throw, ( I get this from his AI in Madden 25) - crash davis Aug 18, 13:25 6
        
        I get the sense that he'll be more than happy to take a 20yd sack, or somehow throw a 35yd up-for-grabs pass to Gordon. - Will Hunting Aug 18, 13:26 5
        
        the truth be told - crash davis Aug 18, 13:28 4
        
        I actually think he'd be lessened by having a good QB. - Will Hunting Aug 18, 13:29

        hmm, I might consider trading 2014 comeback player of the year Hakeem Nicks to you -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 13:32 1

      - *out for the year*..heck I'll take an 8th! -- nm - later Aug 18, 13:22 2
        
        If he's out for the year, I'd give him the 8th. - Will Hunting Aug 18, 13:33

amoxy: I hadn't heard about the car title one until a few months ago when they raced RC cars for pink slips at work -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:12 7
- They used to be pink slips here but have been green for a long time time. -- nm - zork Aug 18, 13:31

  - Emmanuel Sanders, he is basically Eric Decker now and you drafted Eric Decker in the first round last year -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 13:14 5
    - I'm also interested in moving up a couple spots in round 1 -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 13:19 4
      - I would be interested, but I'm not sure how your team won the title last year - Will Hunting Aug 18, 13:27 3
        
        My team basically relied on Denver and some other team that did well last year. Luck also helped - crash davis Aug 18, 13:31 2
        
        I'll pass, thanks though. - Will Hunting Aug 18, 13:38 1
