  1. This guy clearly did not do the sitcom math. He’s only a Rear Admiral, so what does he know? What do any of us know? And how can some people be so sure?
  2. Looking at where the Jags rank in pass protection, it could be a big night for Groot & Co. But I am always nervous!
  3. Yeah, he’s not coaching an NFL team or running their draft. He’s taking a mostly administrative type of role at his Alma mater. I don’t know what that role entails or how qualified it is, but it’s St Bonaventure, not the NFL. I wonder if he was going to be one more cut at ESPN and he found another path. He’s probably as qualified as anyone to handle NIL and portal issues, since it’s not like other people have been doing this for decades. It’s a new frontier, and I’ll wish him well.
  4. I’m guessing Ernie Adams was involved in some way.
  5. I was driving an oversized Buick at 16. I was sure everybody was dead. You’re welcome.
  6. Is the bridge still too narrow? That terrified me as a 16 year old!
  7. A Mike Tyson face tattoo would ensure nobody could swap with you. I mean, if you want to be safe.
  8. I had surgery on my left foot so I missed freshman football in HS. I had to have the surgery again right before sophomore year, so I missed that too. As a junior we had a scrimmage against Amherst and a kid rolled up on my leg. It hurt like hell at the time, but as a junior I was the new guy. Carry on. My english teacher/trainer (SJCI) keeps taping my ankle, but it’s never high enough. I say that’s not it! He may have been angry with me for coming back the day he left the pre-tape off. 😂 I go for a follow up appointment for the foot surgery with Dr Joyce (Braves team doctor) and when I walk in he says, “you’re limping on the wrong side” and sends me down for X-rays. The next thing he tells me is the break to my fibula is starting to heal, but I should take it easy. The whole thing was worth it to see the look on my “trainers” face when I said “thanks for all the taping, but I have a broken leg.” That is priceless for a pissed off teenager. No pre-tape my ass! .
  9. There is generally a fine line between game shape and…………broken. The human body was not meant….we’ve all heard it. The guys who amaze me the most in sports are not the flashy guys as much as the guy who plays NFL football for 10-15 years and only misses a few plays. You see that in some linemen, and those guys are just bad asses. That is superhuman to me. I think they need to do more to expand rosters and PS flexibility with these longer seasons. They will go to 18 games, and it would be criminal if teams don’t get two bye weeks.
  10. It sure would be swell if we could take a ride down that rabbit hole again! Seriously, I’m begging you all. I don’t think I can take it! 😂
  11. OK, help yourself to a cookie. 🍪
  12. This makes me wonder what those other two guys are saying about you. I bet it’s good stuff.
  13. I hope the Pats* win enough early to get them out of the top 5 in the draft, beat the Jets and Dolphins at least once each…….then realize “we just aren’t that good” and tail off later in the season. Scrappy only goes so far.
  14. Things like this always come down to what is in writing. Where in Tua’s contract or the CBA does the league have this power? They need to have the right to force him to retire, and I don’t think they do.
  15. One of the things I liked about the Davis college highlights was it wasn’t just him running the ball and catching passes. There was a fairly long segment of plays where it showed him to be very willing and pretty capable in pass protection. That holds a lot of young RB’s back. That shouldn't hold him back so we can use him up for four years, then rinse and repeat.
  16. I feel dirty cheering for the Cowboys, but such is life.
  17. I live in Atlanta. Is that tonight?
  18. I’m not one to ever go to another team’s message board, but I can’t imagine that it’s pretty. Until they show us differently it’s reputation over results. Are their fans calling for heads? I’m serious, how is the attitude?
  19. Or maybe subtitles, but you can go with that.
  20. It also makes it easier if nobody is actually watching to learn about the weather. 🤷‍♂️
  21. One theory is we traded Diggs to Houston as a Trojan Horse we strategically sent to take out the competition. I like that kind of deep thinking.
  22. That goes to show that it’s a silly award. It’s almost as bad as the Pro Bowl game, but you can’t just abolish the award. Lamar just doesn’t feel all that MVP to me. 🤷‍♂️ EDIT: I don’t want any of you to know where I live if he wins the Super Bowl. 😂
  23. I think it matters very, very, very little, but I’d give the edge to the Bills despite the bad start against the Cards who now seem to be good. It’s all an illusion at this time of year. Get into the playoffs, be healthy and lucky and peak at the right time. Close, but he looks more like a homeless guy. .
  24. When he is, you might want to look away. That is when he seems to be due for something gruesome.
  25. The 49’ers are winning with Purdy. It doesn’t matter when you find them as much as that you find them. We have a bit of the same deal.
