- Derek Carr used this national interview to specifically praise a teammate. I just became a forever fan.
- All because Oakland wouldn’t subsidize a billionaire.It’s real now. This sucks.
00:00 - And my favorite undrafted free agent story ever: Negotiated with player directly, no agent. Told him we had a deal, bonus would be $1,000. He said (no joke): "Mr. Brandt, I only have $200 now but I promise I will bring the rest when I get there." I said "No, no. We pay you."
- Dolphins drafted Tua ahead of Herbert and traded the Eagles a first-round pick to move up 6 spots. But the head coach is fired.
- Can’t stop watching this..
- This is everything we need to learn about ego and living in the moment. In one sound bite. I just became a forever fan..
- Deshaun Watson has the most uncuttable and untradable contract the NFL has ever seen.
- I parked in a homeowner's driveway a block from Lambeau Field on Sunday for $20.General parking at the Intuit Dome is $70.
- Still amazing that a league with $22 billion in annual revenues measures first downs in 2025 with: Two refs figuring out where to spot the ball from 25 yards away; and A couple of guys with two sticks and a chain.
- Negotiated with undrafted player one year, no agent. I said: "We'll do a 3-year deal with a $1,000 signing bonus. That work for you?" He was quiet, then said: "Mr. Brandt, I'm really sorry. I only have $200, but can get you the rest next week." "No, no," I said. "We pay you!"
- Deshaun Watson: “I haven’t done anything wrong.” Browns: “Deshaun is remorseful.”
