  1. When half the league starts to stop declining the invitations then you'll know that a Pro Bowl selection is meaningful.
  2. Should he say it was hard to leave the Buffalo Bills? He didn't exactly light the world on fire or have a huge following. Probably didn't even have many friends on the team. And now he can catch deflated footballs so he should have less drops.
  3. He's right and who cares how he or anyone else spends his free time as long as he's not harming anyone? You're stuck in the 1930's.
  4. lol no. He's significantly better than the other bums the Jets have. But he's not Aaron Rodgers.
  5. Fitz is the difference between a 8-8 Jets season and a 3-13 Jets season. That's a fact. Fitz is doing everything right...as expected. He doesn't need training camp. He's a 33-year old vet who knows the system nearly better than the offensive coordinator himself knows it. Wait until mid-August, sign a deal and begin the season. Or if the Jets are really trying to screw him on a contract then he can wait until October to sign when the fans are raving and the Jets are 0-6 with terrible QB play.
  6. Sure - let's bring him back! All he has to do is travel across his very own bridge that he used to leave Buffalo. This will lead him to Doug Whaley's offic--oh, Dear God no! Freddy, no!
  7. It's an 8-hour documentary about race relations in the United States surrounding events that specifically took place in Los Angeles, CA. Therefore, the filmmakers are going to spend a significant amount of time on racial events in Los Angeles. You still don't get it.
  8. Because this documentary is not a biography of OJ Simpson. It's about why and how the event that took place on 6/13/94 became such a national phenomenon. It's amazing how some people don't get it.
  9. Funny - my wife and I asked the exact same question while watching the first episode. I think it's both. In hindsight we can see that OJ displayed many signs of sociopathy considering his lack of willingness to do anything that didn't directly benefit himself. His resistance to helping out in the civil rights movement and the reasons for it (hurting his brand, "I'm not black, I'm OJ") spoke volumes imo. As did the statements from people who worked with him regularly throughout his career stating in interviews that they couldn't figure out if there was more behind OJ than the calculated, polished cardboard cutout who was able to perfect his public persona through the 70's and 80's. Combined with that you have the fits of rage that are common among CTE sufferers. And back in the late 60's through 70's there was no concussion protocol in football whatsoever. Football was a rougher sport, lack of medical advancements, little to no knowledge of concussions, countless carries during his 11 year NFL career, etc. There is absolutely no question that OJ Simpson's brain contains an abundance of CTE.
  10. I guarantee Briles will be HC of a power conference program (likely the SEC) by the end of December.
  11. Quote of the Year: Rob Ryan: "That's not sour grapes. That's me getting pissed off. Because I am great."
  12. "I believe in being a multiple defense, an attacking defense, a physical defense. (Seattle) are a very physical defense; they play a very simple scheme and let their guys play. But I don't think that's why you hire a Ryan." He's got that right. Hence the fall from #2 in 2014 to #24 in 2015. Let dominant players be dominant? Nah, we'll over-complicate things so they're frozen in confusion as opposing offenses light us up.
  13. Poor guy is taking this claim by the Bills really hard. I can imagine that it would be devastating. God speed, young man. #prayers #staystrong
  14. Whaley works for the NFL and said "I personally believe humans shouldn't play football." When an NFL representative states something like that, it upsets people who think more should be done on the NFL's part to change the game in order to improve the safety of it as opposed to denying and covering up the truth. It's not what Whaley said that bothers people. Rather, it's the hypocrisy of it. If Whaley had said "I don't think humans should play football as it is today, and I'm devoting my life to changing the sport for the better." then people would be applauding him. But that's not what he said nor meant.
  15. That's literally what he said. You can try to spin it as much as you want. There's no missing context in the statement "I personally don't think humans are supposed to play (football)." He said what he said and it cannot be denied. Riiiiiiiiight.
