WOAH WOAH WOAH - Keep Church & State separate my man! LMAO

I think the P Wills pick is amazing. The fact he didn't start is even better. Some people only look at who's starting, not who's in at the end of the game which is....idk way more important? (Thank you The Athletic). But seriously, thats just basketball 101. Being a starter was cool because you get your name called and get to do a sick handshake in front of 15k people, or if youre in high school it increases the chances of getting a handy in between lunch and theology (thought religion class fit well with the theme at hand). P-Will is 19, he is literally 6 years younger than me, and look at me, the world is my oyster and im still getting better every damn day, bitch!

Bulls over will actually be the lockiest lock of the locks. Laughable that vegas will just set this line instead of just send us a direct deposit. Only one preventing this season over is Lavine. Idk how they still have him, there are a handful of teams that could use his skill set right now in order to put together a deeper roster to compete and the bulls are maybe 28th? 29th? on that list of places he fits. Idk some people think he's all we got, I would just like to see him flipped while he's worth something.

Agreed all around MIKE! Besides "Handys before theology class," cannot relate to that.

Wow coming at the Catholic Church and Kobe in one Newsletter! Hop on the SGCTC train or get out the way.

I think that this draft was a crapshoot so I don't have a whole lot of expectations for P-Will. Its tough to convince people that are excited to be patient on a guy that just went 4th overall. Gives me a similar feel to Jonathon Isaac or Marquese Chriss, but time will tell. But man I got fired up watching that guy dunk!

Now, I didn't do a whole lot of draft research but I just assumed that Devon Dotson would be a mid to late first round pick from watching him in college. I'm sure I will never see him play a minute of NBA basketball but I am fired up. In AK we trust!

I don't wanna get riled up about the Bears, so I'm gonna leave that for my man Z.

Theo is number one most important sports figure in my lifetime since I am too young for Jordan. DRose, Urlacher and Jonathon Toews would probably round out my Mt. Rushmore.

I'm hoping for next weeks Newsletter we get an extensive breakdown of Isiah and Dr. J's longstanding cut throat rivalry.

Did not come at Kobe or the catholics. Just examples given.

Yes, and I understand that, but wanting to be excited about your draft pick is a dangerous game. And it was the least top-heavy draft in the last decade.

I think Dotson will play FYI.

Thank you for reminding me re: the Isiah-Dr.J chronicles

Matt Nagy has a new nickname. "The Quarterback Killer" Because that is what he is. One more time, Nick Foles won a Super Bowl with Philly and came within a game of the Super Bowl the next year. He, with a decent coach, is a good quarterback. People in Philly are screaming at the Eagles Brass for letting Foles go. Stop talking about Foles or Trubisky. Foles past success tells you emphatically that this all lies with Nagy.

"In Theo we trust!" That was the Donlan mantra and i stick to it. I remember his introductory news conference where he said that success to him was winning a World Series and competing for the playoffs every year. I thought, "yeah, as if that is going to happen. He delivered just that. LEGEND!

Lastly, I love people pontificating on drafts when the know nothing. They are just repeating something that Jay Williams, Booger McFarland or Keyshaun said. Wait and see.

Let's leave Booger out of this.
