Shea almost starts for the Ravens
September 15th, 2020 at 11:01 AM ^
"Starts..."
I do not think it means what you think it means... #Princessbride'd
September 15th, 2020 at 1:32 PM ^
Inconceivable!
September 15th, 2020 at 11:03 AM ^
Nearly almost.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:03 AM ^
Ha! Brilliant!
I did notice he said he's been working harder now than he ever has in his life. Not sure how to feel about that. It's his life and his talent. I guess he can use it or squander it however he chooses.
September 15th, 2020 at 12:31 PM ^
Did they specify if the work was football related or on his golf swing.

Yea.. that quote looks bad. It's probably a no biggie when you hear it in person since it's a common exaggeration. But for us UM fans it gives PTSD about certain golfing comments.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:03 AM ^
Something tells me that “nearly starts” would be...more appropriate
September 15th, 2020 at 11:05 AM ^
OP nearly got it right.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:23 AM ^
Almost!
September 15th, 2020 at 11:08 AM ^
Good for Shea - was this close to starting!!
After all, starting on the practice squad is still better than all of us couch warriors can do...
September 15th, 2020 at 11:10 AM ^
Hopefully, there are no golf courses nearby.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:23 AM ^
Too late. He was seen at the Congressional Country Club in Potomac, MD.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:29 AM ^
Perfect. Congressional fits him...
September 15th, 2020 at 12:21 PM ^
So another headline could be "Shea nearly wins PGA event"?
September 15th, 2020 at 12:10 PM ^
I wonder if they checked his handicap at the workout?
September 15th, 2020 at 11:12 AM ^
OP nearly got the title of the thread correct.
And, I nearly got this in before someone else.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:16 AM ^
Back in college, BursleyHall82 nearly scored with Madonna.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:22 AM ^
aka Donna from Pretzel Bell?
September 15th, 2020 at 11:21 AM ^
Almost Starts? Ahead of Lamar Jackson? What? lol.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:22 AM ^
"Almost starts"??
Umm...no, no I don't think that's quite right

"Almost starts"
Sure, if you define "starting" by getting a spot on the practice squad behind three veterans.
"The former Michigan quarterback has a workout this morning with the Baltimore Ravens
Patterson could find himself on the practice squad if the workout goes well, however the Ravens are full at quarterback between MVP Lamar Jackson, Robert Griffin III and former Penn State star Trace McSorley."
September 15th, 2020 at 1:11 PM ^
You nearly got the joke.
September 15th, 2020 at 2:43 PM ^
you can't get anything past Don.... he was up early this morning
September 15th, 2020 at 11:44 AM ^
Shea's gonna come in when Lamar Jackson gets hurt and lead the Ravens to the Super Bowl.
September 15th, 2020 at 11:47 AM ^
Does Shea like kill puppies in his spare time?
He gets more shit on this board than any recent player I can think of was he 5-star good? No. But he was pretty darn good at times.
September 15th, 2020 at 12:18 PM ^
Could get worse after I post this, but the harshest thing posted here so far has been a couple jokes about golfing.
September 15th, 2020 at 12:18 PM ^
There entails the conundrum: he was a 5 star recruit and people are going to have high expectations because of it. Maybe the average fan reads too much into recruiting Starzzz, but truthfully I still don’t understand why he was a 5 star recruit in the first place.
September 15th, 2020 at 12:13 PM ^
Well done, sir.
September 15th, 2020 at 12:23 PM ^
Bravo. Well played.
September 15th, 2020 at 12:38 PM ^
I've been arguing this angle for years. I graduated 23rd in my class and keep telling everyone that I was almost Valedictorian.
September 15th, 2020 at 1:52 PM ^
In a class of 450, yes. In a class of 30, not so much. ;)
September 15th, 2020 at 1:04 PM ^
Well. He was definitely closer to starting for the Ravens than us jamokes. (Apologies to RGIII and Trace McSorley if y'all are Mgoboard lurkers).
September 15th, 2020 at 1:14 PM ^
had he been in uniform on the sidelines, he would have nearly started....
since he's only working out for the team, he almost started.
September 15th, 2020 at 1:17 PM ^
The title of this post is an amazing work, to be highly commended. Booted Blue, you have outdone yourself. Bravo, kind sir.
September 15th, 2020 at 1:30 PM ^
Yea, Shea. Yay, Shay?
September 15th, 2020 at 3:52 PM ^
If you were trying to make a joke based off the other recent posts, it's "nearly", not almost.
Fail.
