In the context of a dog without a pedigree, as in not highly drafted from a top collegiate program, and an UDFA. There was no racial connotation, though I can see how it might be taken. Thank you for pointing it out. I shall be more careful in the future.Mongrel.
Wow!
Nothing further to say about.
I admit that when I saw they signed a DT, I was hopeful, but the little bit of film I saw was not what I was hoping to seeI think the hype around Pili is due to the obvious opportunity for a DT to get early playing time.
The team is lacking depth at that spot so IF he can play he could see the field right away.
What else do we have to talk about. - LOLBased on the highlights I watched, I doubt he makes the team at all. Maybe the PS, but he doesn't look like an NFL ready player to me at all. I don't understand why he is getting so much hype.
Maybe.
More likely he doesn't make the team and is never heard from again.
I really do not understand the mindset that every mongrel (no offense to any player personally) that the Phins pick up to fill out or TC allotment is some sort of perspective high quality starter in waiting.
If another team picked this guy up, ppl here would shrug, and say so what.......
Sure, there's a chance, but history indicates that is somewhere between slim, and none. We have been quite fortunate with secondary players like Kohou, and Needham prior, but still.
Pili has the makings of an All Pro.......the HOF is also possible for him. Hard to believe all 32 teams passed on him on draft week.Maybe.

Meh, I'm a mongrel human. I have no issue with it in in the proper context. Generally, mongrel dogs are healthier and less temperamental than purebreds.I mean...it's kinda difficult to not take "mongrel" personally.

It's only offensive if the one saying it considers themselves superior in some way.
Anyway, I already explained the context, and said I would endeavor to choose terms more carefully, so as not to offend those who take things more literally than intended.
I missed it......lol....The wink smiley should have clearly indicated that I was just teasing.
