CCL Messageboard

Whoo-Hoo! Dallas is gone!

And the Giants, so all good. Now I just need the Niners to beat the Eagles and all will be well.

So Dallas loses two of their last three games with Dak sucking in both??
That's 36 completions on 74 attempts, 334 yards, 2 touchdowns and 3 interceptions combined for those two games.
At $33.2 million in salary and signing bonus for this year that doesn't sound like such a great deal to me.



I'm a little concerned that the 49ers didn't do enough on offense yesterday to be able to keep up with the Eagles. Patrick is playing for KC but is he still going to be hopping around on one foot? Screams easy target to me.

Anyone else a little disappointed that we end up with a Superbowl with the two teams many of us expected to be there 10 to 15 weeks ago? With Mahomes hopping around on one foot with all his pass catchers injured and the Eagles offense looking anemic lately it's not really screaming must see tv!!! I thought it would be more fun picking and rooting for the underdogs to get upsets but now I'm not even sure who the underdog should be in the next one. It reminds me of the disappointment from the mens Royal rumble where we wait an hour+ just to have them hand the match to the predetermined winner rather weakly. You hype Cody for weeks then give him the last entry spot and take out all the big men before he gets there? At least for most of the match I thought they were playing at misdirection and Gunther was going to be the winner or Rey Mysterio would come out at the end and get the win since he was never eliminated, and Cody went over the top rope voluntarily after the match!!! You can't be eliminated until after you've entered, that's the rules and some NFL level officiating at the end there to ignore them!!!!

Well...in the original rules (though they were ignored several times over the years), once the entrant after you entered the ring, you were eliminated if you still had not got in the ring yourself.

I bought a month of Peacock to check out the Rumble and the new Night Court which I'm not really liking 3 episodes in so I'm rewatching all the Rumbles since they have that option. I finished the 1st three yesterday and so far we still don't even have entrance music to announce who's coming. For the weekend I'd rank it
1. Woman's Royal Rumble
2. KO Roman Reigns mostly based on the after match Sami Zayne stuff
3. Eagles 49'ers
4. Bray Wyatt match
5. KC Cinci (1 legged qb vs a team with no O-Line yet they manage to pass a million times without much scoring instead of leaning on the running game.)
6. Mens Royal Rumble (Why was Booker even in the match? Talk about wasting a spot while not introducing anyone new and exciting or a returning veteran)

Best takedowns of the weekend go to Logan Paulson/Richocet with the double springboard insanity off the ropes and Trent Williams for the body slam after the play. Honorable mention to Uncle Howdy coming off the scafolding and that guy from Cincinati for the out of bounds one to give KC the win.

It looks like royal rumble #1 only had 20 people, they moved to 30 for #2 and there's a 2 minute gap between entrants which this last one was only 90 seconds so it looks like somewhere along the way they shaved off 30 seconds saving 15 minutes for other matches and/or a second womans rumble.

The winners of the Conference Round were crunchbird and WEBGV who both got 118 points. Ray extended his lead and BJ climbed back into the mix thanks to both Jeremy and I getting both games wrong while the two of them got both right.

I got 3 of the 20 point props and one of the 8 pointers. Jeremy got 2 of the 20's and one of the 8's. Ray got 3 20's and an 8 as did BJ.

I traditionally do a Bonus Round for the Pro Bowl but I have no freaking idea what the Pro Bowl is anymore. It looks like an elementary school field day now.

Tug of War? Water Balloon Catch? Dodgeball? Longest Golf Ball Drive? Flag Football?

What, no 3-Legged Race?

Pro Bowl was kinda dumb anyway since they basically made the defensive linemen and linebackers just stand there and let the offense show out. Plus they put it before the Super Bowl which makes all the guys who made it on a Super Bowl team obviously not show up. Both these things made for so many opt outs, you were playing with 3rd or 4th alternates.

I say that but the school yard mess they're doing this year makes it even less watchable. I would usually at least have it on kinda watching, but not this season.

The solution is to put it in the hands of the WWE. Maybe a Battle Royal or something like they've done with NFL players in the past. I'd also vote for extending the season one more game so there's no gap needing to be filled with nonsense.

Maybe move the NFL draft up to fill the gap. SuperBowl team with the best record in the regular season picks last. I like the idea of getting the draft out of the way before free agency so you can have a better feel for what you're going to need and how much to overpay to get it. At least round 1 of the draft. Maybe spread them out, 1 round a week so teams can have more time to decide what out of what's left they need the most.
