  1. I can vouch for this. I was there. If I knew you well enough, I would love to make the joke.....I make her wear one too.... 🤷🏼‍♂️ If I knew you well enough, I would love to make the joke.....I make her wear one too.... 🤷🏼‍♂️
  2. Oh, I'm not worked up I'm a nor focused at you on this. This guy didn't get much good time during the preseason, this guy didn't get anything to showcase what talent we may have with him. If we pressed him into service, I don't think you would do miserably. Could be as good as Eli Apple? But, he did get better of the season went on.
  3. It would be a terrible trade. We couldn't get better than a fifth form. The guy hasn't been in the field, haven't been able to show him off. It's b******* that the coaches won't play him
  4. The only thing he doesn't do is block as good as Motor. And that's significant given motors size. Or lack there of
  5. Inb4 moved to PPP But good for this dude. We need more of this
  6. We are very good at stopping the top player for the opposite team. We aren't so good against the rest but historically we shut down the #1. Even Hill against us isn't lighting it up ever.
  7. Was supposed to be back initially until Kirksey was available. No. But maybe you can? Seriously, the guy knows the system, can effectively coach on the field, and we already know his floor. It is statements like this that remind me why none of us work in prof football offices and stick to playing Madden.
  8. no. he went on a big vacation with his family and went around the country with them. it was really cool. he knew he'd be coming back.
  9. just like when teams win football games, they don't need as much ice on the plane ride home. when they lose football games, they require twice as much ice for injury. no joke, this has been discussed in the circles of sports world and i knew a crew who flew an nfl team around for a season
  10. unfortunately she was set up and left exposed. i reckon it could be debated if it was intentional but i spoke to someone in the room with first hand knowledge of the incident.
  11. If his team won he wouldn't have anything to say.
  12. So, the margin remains 6% in a control group. Now I'm not a major stat dude. But that's not a very overwhelming number to the energy manifested by those who cry about CTE. Thks is just an article where the number stuck in my head because they used a control group vs many studies that didn't. The chances of going up, sure that's impressive but it's also a compounded stat so it's not quite as impressive.
  13. I'm renting you two a room.
  14. Come to the home opener tailgate. Polka doted dead spots is easy to spot amongst our crowd. 😝
  15. I want to both laugh and cry.
  16. Yes, those are stages but not significance of intensity. At least by my knowledge cte is cte and continues to develop. Obviously more contact creates more likelihood but by all accounts I've seen it doesn't intensify or change by getting hit harder, or longer, or any such thing. The only thing that goes up is the likelihood for it by deduction. And even then the difference between the control group was 6%. Not staggering.
  17. This place would implode and be glorious. Oh so glorious.
  18. Uh huh. But if there are obviously so many cases of people having it and it is essentially a disease without levels of degree than why are more people not committing these crimes, behaving this way, or just having the same attention or problems? The point isn't that there could be more likelihood to get it playing in the NFL vs football in middle school. It's that the statistic isn't that much different for those who didn't play sports and get it. And then again, that if it truly is 9% of all contact sports players why aren't we seeing a rugby player out there being a jerk and then we just excuse his ray rice incident because he got bopped in the head?
  19. @MrsCletus was the highlight. She will log in when Taylor Swift announced her next tour to fuss about ticket prices.
  20. please simon, do it
  21. the whole CTE thing is so funny because that crazy doctor who ranted and raved about it then the movie. studies have show that people who have played any contact sports are 9% of that population, and then about 3% of the population who never played a contact sport have been shown to have it. that 6% isn't much when talking millions and millions of children every sport season playing contact sports. the study i remember reading back when the terrible movie was out listed sports like basketball, soccer, ice hockey, football, and even water polo as contact sports. now, i'm sure the chances go up when you play for longer periods but there have not been any studies i've seen where it is "worse" or graded higher due to amount of injury. if you have cte you simply have cte and the symptoms are pretty cut and dry. also, read a while back that a lot of military folks are getting it, and this included men who are in the heavy weaponry who are subject to the shockwaves of the large calibre munitions.
  22. no i'm not, just my first thought was different.
  23. my second thought exactly first thought was may she rest in peace.
  24. Amazes me idiots pull their phone out at the first sign of trouble. If you're with family/children: lead them out of danger and nothing stands in your way to do that - NOTHING (even police). If you're by yourself and a fit man then you need to gently distance yourself or help those who can't. Id you pull out your phone for something like this you're a coward.
  25. That's my Thursday to do list sans dog.
