Already four Oscar winners in that movie (two previous, two future).

Yes, I am connecting the current Shedeur Sanders chatter to my personal gripe that the NFL Draft is bad. But, you should treat yourself to understanding just how long the draft has been bad, with my lede, courtesy of Red Smith writing in 1975:

Grayson Rodriguez was the last top draft pick of the previous front office, but his lack of development (which, yes, really did get dinged by several injuries) all happened under the Mike Elias regime. But overall, this has to be seen as a massive failure by Orioles.

If the fella that sounds like Krang with a sore throat got somebody to go that kinda crazy for them, you can too, brother!

(The fella sustained a torn ACL in his first game for the club. It is such bullshit to write that, especially for an 18-year-old.)

'This thing that I do not understand and did not try to understand that attempts to quantify something that is vaguely unquantifiable and is only used by losers absolutely sucks!' - is a sports talk radio opinion that is never going out of style.

Variations on a theme:

"The joy of sports only truly comes when the skin you put in the game comes at the cost of emotional well-being. This is the price of admission."
