Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

These days 6'7 could play any position (C would be pushing it on a full-time basis) depending on skills but would be small for C/PF generally and would normally be a swingman (SG/SF).

Cheers bloke. Thought you’d be our go-to guy on this stuff.

Don’t forget I still kid myself that at just under 5’7” (and just under 57yo) the Clippers *really* need to think about starting me at the 1.

Will have to catch up later but good to see this thread.

First experience of American football was Upper Heyford USAF v Mildenhall USAF at Pontypridd rugby late70s, early 80s when they were on tour!
Expected about 60 minues of play as described, did not understand the rules or length of time game would take so along with most spectators we gave up and left after about 2.5 hours with game still unfinished.
Fortunately C4 with Nicky Horne came to the rescue later in the 80s with explanations of plays and been a fan ever since.
Have still to watch the Draft programmes taped from Sky this week.

Welcome Dai. Amazing even you cite a Suffolk USAF base as your at in to the sport.

The link HF posted has my quote of the week.

Still, if it doesn’t work out at least. The Bolts have Tyrod Taylor...

Lol Grep, at 6'1 the only position I could play in the NBA is PG and would still be undersized in many matchups! Could have been a good defensive player on the perimeter and the post if I was taller, lol.

Last word from me for a while on the Bolts' woes - and it's something I got from ATN a couple of months back:

There is no problem in football where the solution is Tyrod Taylor.

Tyrod Taylor is no Derek Pringle.

I used to commute through Mildenhall and pick up USA Today for the sport. In the days when teletext was at the cutting edge of IT.
