  1. I hadn't seen this, but it really doesn't surprise me. I guess his extraordinary efforts show this is more than a hoax.
  2. Yep, so far they've avoided the slut shaming of the 14-16 year olds, but when it starts getting a little too close to their hero no holds are barred.
  3. I like how your little tweeter puts "VICTIM" in scare quotes, suggesting that she was nothing more than a 16 year old slut rather than a victim of rape. Nice.
  4. Well we weren't going to need him against the pathetic Dolphins anyway.
  5. You're right, but i'm not sure there are many other plays in a game where players collide with each other head-on at 7-12 yards. It's still inherently more dangerous than plays where guys are changing directions, hitting each other across the line of scrimmage, or hitting at an angle.
  6. I'm just excited for a great Sunday of football. Looks like the best lineup all year so far. Send the family away, stockpile the microbrews, order a pizza just for me. Bills-Bucs, then KC at DEN, then DET at Philly. That's a good solid 10 hours in the basement.
  7. I'll give Beane the benefit of the doubt on this one - maybe a healthy Gabe Davis looked like a better option than trading for the not-exactly-stellar WR talent that was out there. We shall see.
  8. I haven't read the article yet, but I would assume the starting point is this: a large, large percentage of pre-dynamic kickoffs were touchbacks into/through the end zone with almost zero concussions. The league got what it wanted - more returns. But with more returns come more collisions. Probably fewer grisly knockout type concussions, but more than with a kick through the end zone. After watching this for a while now, I think I'd like to just have the receiving team have the option of getting the ball at the 35 or having the kicking team kickoff with the new rules. Unless a team is trailing late it's likely to just take the 35, meaning zero injuries. But if you are trailing late, you get the option of trying for the big return.
  9. I thought of the same skit when the whole gait thing came up.
  10. Continues to exhibit that he cannot ignore me.
  11. Inflation hits home! More specifically, hits the basement. Between that and the potential disruption to my air travel, I'm about to go all J6.
