NFL News: Two days until the Draft.
- The Seahawks, as predicted once they signed Russell to all that money, have traded Frank Clark.
- To the Chiefs, for a 2019 First round pick, a swap of 2019 Thirds, and a 2020 Second.
- For the Chiefs, I guess they saw their window closing, and seemingly overpaying means Andy Reid thought it was the drive-thru window.
- For the Seahawks, given that they had only four picks this year, it seems like a pretty good deal for a guy they could no longer afford.
- Clark then signed a five-year, $105 million contract, with $63 million guaranteed.
- On his way out the door, he took a few shots at an organization that drafted him despite his reputation for taking shots at women.
- “Seattle had used me for everything I had for them already.”
- “When you’re playing in Seattle it’s not common that they plan to have players around for the long run. It’s obvious.”
- “I wanted to be somewhere where I’m wanted, where I’m appreciated.”
- Or, to put it another way,
- On his way out the door, he took a few shots at an organization that drafted him despite his reputation for taking shots at women.
- To the Chiefs, for a 2019 First round pick, a swap of 2019 Thirds, and a 2020 Second.

- The reason for the trade, Russell Wilson, spent today gifting his offensive linemen Amazon stock.
- Thirteen linemen X $12,000 in shares = $156,000.
- In comparison, he makes $17 million this year, and another $140 million through 2023.
- Proving he’s either a nice guy or always on-brand, he followed that up by saying:
- “You sacrifice your physical and mental well-being to protect me, which in turn allows me to provide and care for my family. This does not go unnoticed and it is never forgotten. You have invested in my life, [so] this is my investment into yours.”
- Thirteen linemen X $12,000 in shares = $156,000.

We’re thiiiiiiiiiiiiis close to actual NFL content. Mr. Scott?
Man, I picked the wrong night to skip sports and watch a new Korean show.
Bully!
So, we’re all staying up for the big Lacrosse draft tonight, right?
Hey, there’s a lot of intrigue. Do you draft by position if you’re weak at the rapist position, or just take the biggest douche available?
The Chiefs will trade for their abusers if they are not available at 30, pal!
Oh, sorry….. I crossed sport abusers.
Wealthiest goes first, followed by whitest on the WASP phrenology charts.
Jesus Tapdancing Christ, those were outstanding Game 7s.
Ugh. Mondays.
Whheeeewwww.
I saw “Gamer Gummies” at 7-Eleven which advertise being “energy-drink flavored.” I don’t know if I should be relieved or annoyed they just taste like less flavorful gummy whatevers.
GODDAMN DAME!
Go ahead and hurt ’em.
GODDAMN!
Somehow Russell Westbrook is even angrier as a result.
That was a hell of a shot and a hell of a game.

Follow up with sounds of angry fracking over the greater Oklahoma viewing audience.
They should frack Oklahomans.
Right in the furry nuts.
The Padres win. That’s good!
They beat the Mariners. That’s bad.
The Mariners are in first place. That’s good!
…..you have to go to work tomorrow. That’s bad.
Planning a boots on the ground Seattle style in August.
Sign up now!
Seats are going fast!
I could probably drive up for that.
I’m going to be such a fun professor tomorrow/today. Early classes, I’ll still be mostly drunk, so I’ll be fun and entertaining. Afternoon, the hangover kicks in, so I’ll just put on a movie for them to watch and write a report about.

///Me: Close enough
////drinks more, watches more hockey
I would take a DFOU course taught by Professor WCS. The degree would be worth at least as much as one from University of Phoenix.
You can always have a liquid lunch to prevent the hangover.
Everyone tells me they I don’t act different when I’m drinking gin…
Haha! Eat shit Clay Bennett!

All this does is reaffirm my utter loathing for online FPS gaming.
Regardless of how this game ends, it will still be the 17th highlight reel shown on SportsCenter, behind ten NBA playoff blowouts, four segments about the NFL Draft (two of which will be about the Cowboys), and three on baseball. Even then, it will be about 15 seconds long.
They got #5 and #2 on the top 10. But otherwise were largely ignored.
STOP THE INSANITY!

Oh, I got another one.
THIS JOE PAVELSKI I CALL HIM ADAM BANKS BECAUSE HIS TEAM WAS SUCKING UNTIL HE GOT HIT AND THEN THEY SCORED A BUNCH OF GOALS.
C’mon Free Hockey!
Someone needs to go punch Pavelski in the face during this intermission for good luck.
I haven’t seen a game turn on a dime like this since every game of Mario Party ever. Or Monopoly. Or Risk when trading in all your cards.
