I’ll give you $50 to find out! Bail money, fines and court costs are on you, however, so I hope it’s not more than $50 total. .

Ahhhh…..the tradition continues! I’m always a mix of “unrealistic expectations” and pure fear that the next tweet will be about something…..nobody wants to hear about any player on any team.

I’ll give you credit for playing one day, then eating the wings the next day. The reverse order could be……… problematic, if you know what I mean.

Just look at how the ST coach was never publicly singled out after the debacles we saw (end) last season. He quietly went about finding another job down in Jax. Some people were screaming for “accountability”, a chance to break out the torches and pitchforks. McD just quietly moved forward like a professional. I don’t know what they’ll do with Edmunds long term, but I like their judgement more than I like “our” judgement.

Josh makes him look so…….tiny. I’m sure it would startle the %$#% out of me if someone came up behind me and started autographing MY neck!
-
He’s making the big OT bucks now! Woohoo!

Car crash? I was going to say this is the time of year I cross my fingers and hold my breath. A car crash I did not see coming. Hope it’s minor!

Yep, they were determined to have that role filled, even after we were jilted by the Commander (that still sounds stupid to me!). It was clearly a priority for what they are trying to build.

This is helpful, I think. I mean, I had heard of this Allen guy, but I didn’t realize he could single-handedly take on the world! That is some Super Hero stuff there! I don’t have the stat at my fingertips, but the scarcity of late comebacks by Rodgers is rather shocking. He seems so focused on not turning the ball over (he had 37 TD and only 4 INT’s last year, 48/5 the year before) that it seems to lead him to be afraid to take shots to win games. I’m not sure if that’s the reason, but I would expect more come from behind victories from a guy like that. Josh is indeed very special. I NEVER count him out! EDIT: I looked it up. Rodgers is tied for 9th on the all-time 4Q comeback list….behind the greatness of QB’s named Dalton, Tanneyhill, Derrick Carr and Matt Ryan. Rodgers is great…..in his own way. Josh has averaged 2 4Q comebacks per year. If he had done this as long as Rodgers has been in the league, Josh would be ahead by a comfortable 32-18 margin. That says something about each of these guys. Having a broader vocabulary than some others should not have you relegated to some lower level of discussion than you are capable of. Sometimes another word just works better. .

I suspect that yes, you were indeed worse than Meg Ryan. I mean…… 🤷♂️
-
I never thought about it, but this must be how the traditional Burning of the Couches ceremony began! So obvious….. 🤷♂️ .

That was a misunderstanding. He left it in his car.

Had not thought of that. I was going to guess out with OJ searching for the real killer on a back nine somewhere, or hanging out with Waldo.

First job out of college was in banking and had a lot of retired military types as clients. If it says 5:00pm-7:00pm, you arrive exactly at 5PM, and if you were there at 7:05pm it was VERY bad form. (And you always over-dress! They will all have on a coat and tie.) More recently, for a work dinner at the owners house I arrived 10 minutes after the “start time”, thinking it might be too soon. I was the second to last one to arrive out of 40-50 people. That’s not my style at all, so you need to be aware of the crowd. People will show up at our house an hour late, and that’s just fine. Just don’t be too mad if you arrive super late and we ate without you! Parties at our house end when the last guests leave, whenever that might be. So, just like with your family, different strokes for different folks. .

I went to Canada for beer again, and this time it was FAR different!

I’m just waiting until this ends differently. “I went, and they wouldn’t let me back! Something about a petition from TBD!” -
I swear, I watched this this morning up until the second they started talking about Josh! How did I miss that?

Would you be okay if Allen sat the entire preseason?
Augie replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
My first worry is injury to a top guy, but you make an excellent point that it gives us a better chance to accurately sort out the depth. -

Augie replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
Wait? Wait for what? Are we still waiting for him to get that punt off? That happened right in front of us, making me ill. Oh, the character we have built over the years…….this board is certainly full of character(s). -

Augie replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
What if by not playing, Josh was available to come up and have a hot dog and some popcorn with you and your son? Sounding better now, isn’t it? Have fun at the game! I’m sure your son will remember that for a long, long time! -

Augie replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in The Stadium Wall
I would have him play some as well, but if McD felt compelled to not give him at least a few snaps, I wouldn’t freak out. But I’m almost positive that will NOT be the case. -
I’m sure a lot of people attended to see the shiny new stadium. I know this happened in Atlanta when they opened the new dome. People would go to random events just to see the new place. It’s a lot like Vegas: new stadium and popular with visiting teams’ fans. Because they sold seats doesn’t mean LA has a ton of rabid NFL fans. There is a reason teams kept moving away.

I think Greg Rousseau becomes an elite pass rusher in 2022
Augie replied to streetkings01's topic in The Stadium Wall
That is a very real thing that hurts when it comes to lifting, but helps enormously when playing defensive end. I wonder how his offseason has gone in terms of growing into his body. He’s not the quick twitch/speed rusher kind of guy, but I can see him being very effective. . -
Was that meant in an admiring way? Not that there’s anything wrong with that…..
