We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Sam Martin POTW
Sam was named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week today. He averaged 52.5 a punt with a long of 72. It looks like the Lion's "gamble" to use a 5th round pick is paying off. Of course we all knew that would be the case!

That's amazing! Hopefully he can have careers as nice as Royals and Alexander.JTApps1 wrote:Sam was named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week today. He averaged 52.5 a punt with a long of 72.

Re: Sam Martin POTW
How's this for some real smart people:
Josh Katzenstein@jkatzenstein
Sam Martin, the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week, said he got hate tweets for his 72-yard punt that went into the EZ. People, the worst
72 yard punt. Even with it going into the endzone it's still a net of 52. And it was near the end of a close game. He was trying to prevent a possible return. Guess they were expecting him to stop it at the 5 from 67 yards away.
Just goes to show some people aren't happy unless they have something to complain about.

Dimwits! Like he knew it was going to be a 72 yard punt and would end up in the endzone...firemoose wrote:How's this for some real smart people:

I never cease to be amazed by the number of vacuum-heads who make those kinds of comments.

Re: Sam Martin POTW
He's obviously a professional who is unable to stop an oblong object on a dime. Cut him!!! 
Picked up via free agency by the High Country All-Stars
Re: Sam Martin POTW
they got a pro bowl caliber punter, that has improved the position on the team, and looks like he is going to be their punter for the next 10 years, not bad for a 5th round pick!

Re: Sam Martin POTW
These are probably the people who were mad they drafted him in the 5th round, and they're bitter that he has proved them wrong.firemoose wrote:How's this for some real smart people:
