If you didn’t know who those players were, you would be hard pressed to pick them out from the other players because Hawks have multiple good players across all positions - and, spoiler, a significant majority have all been playing 2028 since the beginning - they just weren’t all on Hawks. Many joined last year and they picked up a few more players this year.

This post is laughable. holdbacks are holdbacks. Your kids were average 27s so you made the switch. Good for you but don’t make excuses.

You obviously know these guys. Why not just go up to them and share your thoughts in person?

Let's face it — we all know why, including you, little man.

But, sure, keep talking about holdbacks.
