QB Justyn Martin (Official Thread)

Interesting move for both sides. For Ohio State, this looks like a smart depth addition after Kienholz left, especially with Martin bringing experience from two Power Five programs. He’s not coming in as a guaranteed starter, but as a steady, older presence who can push the room and be ready if needed. For Martin, it’s a last chance to reset his career on a big stage, and a medical waiver could keep his options open beyond this season.

Random embarrassing instances about Romo's old man

So maybe one last story.

I worked for a bank for many years as a financial advisor/rm and at one point, I was the only male employee in the branch. I was eating lunch one day, and the branch manager came running into the break room. She was hysterical; nearly beside herself.

She says to me, “Come quick, there is a disheveled looking man with a machete, who just came into the lobby. He looked around and walked out. Please please hurry.”

I’m understandably nervous and I asked if they rang the silent alarm and they had not done so because this man had walked out without a fuss. So I cut my lunch short, walked out, and got back to my desk. Everything is good. I did not face the door, but the manager did. She turned white as a ghost and ran o er to my desk practically crying, “He’s back, he’s back, he has a huge knife.” I thought she was going to stroke out or have a heart attack.

I looked up at the man, and immediately buried my head in my hands. I said, “That’s my dad. He told me he was going to give me a chopping blade to borrow to cut down some thick brush at my in-law’s place on Kelleys Island. I told him to give me a call before he got here.”

I was so embarrassed. I told him that he can’t pull that shit. He had just got done working on his car, so he was wearing ripped up greasy jeans and a stained t-shirt. His hair was all o er the place and he legit looked like a psychopath. He completely blew it off as no big deal. I told him you can’t walk into a bank, or anywhere for that matter, looking like a bum holding a 15” chopper. Didn’t give two shits. He pretty much said that’s what you get when you work with a bunch of women. I just shook my head.

Needless to say I had to apologize profusely to the staff.

2026 tOSU Offense Discussion

Besides an OT and PK, I think they need another RB to go with Bo Jackson. I'm not 100% sold on Isaiah West and/or the unproven Freshmen (i.e Rogers rsFr or Akih Fr).


The highest rated one that hasn't signed yet is Justice Haynes....:biggrin:; he believe that he actually would be a good pickup. Having 2 RB1s like Henderson and Judkins worked real well in 2024.
And obviously watching the DFBIA lose their collective minds would be an added bonus.

J.J. McCarthy (once a tCun, always a tCun)

  • Signing Bonus: $12,714,396
  • Average Annual Salary: $5,463,699
So far McCarthy has raked in $23,641,794 and played in only 10 games. That's $2,364,179.40 per game and his QB rating is 35.7....... :lol:
That’s $509,190 per point of QBR?

Josh Allen is worth over $44 million by Vikings math.

People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

Boy do I feel this...every year for me I seem to be logarithmically less enthusiastic about being back...can't retire soon enough (or soon, sadly).
I gotcha there, I "could" retire in a few years, but I can't because I need to get my percentages up. I just want to retire and not die at work lol.

Pittsburgh Steelers (official thread)

Login to view embedded media
Rooney thanked Tomlin for his "hard work, dedication and success" over the past 19 years. And said it was "hard for me to put into words the level of respect and appreciation I have for coach Tomlin."

Tomlin released his own statement, thanking Rooney and Steelers players, coaches and fans for their support during his near-two-decade tenure as Pittsburgh's coach.

"While this chapter comes to a close, my respect and love for the Pittsburgh Steelers will never change," Tomlin said. "I am excited for what the future holds for this franchise, and I will forever be grateful for my time coaching in Pittsburgh."

Just sayin': Tomlin leaves the Steelers same way he coached them for 19 seasons, i.e. classy. Also, the Steelers probably have the best ownership in the NFL too.

Cincinnati Reds (2026 Season Thread)

0-162.

Book it!
The number on the left is the number of games I probably would watch or listen to this season if not for the new challenge head tap rule for balls and strikes. I've seen it at Clippers games. I think I'll be good after a couple games, when the luster wears off, just to see the new thing in mlb. Why invest 6 months.
