It is not going to end well for Johnny Manziel

    Doesn't the AAF allocate players based on territorial ties based on their colleges? Or is everybody a free agent now?
    If the former, he'd have to go to San Antonio, right?

    Well, that answers the question of whether or not he fell off the wagon.

    You guys realize you're all posting tweets from a fake account, right?

    ESPN beat reporter Dick Tator? Really? Gonna see what national news anchor Heywood Jablome has to say about it next?

    Johnny Manziel will be a starter in the XFL next year but will not play in the AAF

    So, could be a reverse Ogie Oglethorpe thing?

    You're seriously posting tweets from Dick Tator as if that's a real thing?

    Criminy has this place ever turned toward crap.

    Yes, one poster getting duped by a fake Twitter account, which has never happened anywhere else on the Internet, is indicative of the direction of this entire site. Your clearly unbiased judgment seems absolutely sound.

    Do you honestly believe that's the only "indicative" thing I was thinking of there?

    There's some really smart people who still post here, a few of whom I've grown immensely fond of over the years. Which is why I can't quit this place. But anyone who's been here more than a couple years claiming this board is even near what it used to be is delusional or dishonest. The "direction" has been apparent for quite some time now.

    I have no idea. You're probably still complaining that two of your boys got bounced for being absolute nutters. Weird how this place has survived without them. The board goes through phases. This version is fine. Not the best, not the worst. Still lots of good people, writing lots of smart and funny things. I like this one better than the one we had a year ago, say. You might miss some people. Not all of us do. I'm more likely to come here now than I was. I know I won't see the same two or three assholes every time I decide to sit at the bar. Your mileage may vary. It doesn't really matter. This board will outlive us all.

    Drugs or gambling?

    Does the CFL announce if guys get popped for drugs?

    I’m sure if someone paid him $500 he would spill his guts. TMZ?

    Why don't you just stay away from this place? It clearly upsets you coming here and all you do is bitch and moan when you do stop by.
