  1. The offense simply does not look like it wants to play football.
  2. Any Backers at the Fenway bar in Boston? My daughter just moved to town and is looking to make some new Mafia buddies. She’s sitting at the bar so make her feel welcome!
  3. Ok boys, let’s matriculate the ball down the field!
  4. My order: 1. Lombardi 2. Paul Brown 3. Belicheat 4. Walsh 5. Parcells
  5. That kid could literally have been killed Thursday night if he had gotten hit the wrong way. The way this went down is disgusting.
  6. Just saw the doctor who evaluated him last Sunday got fired for making some “mistakes”. This really needs to be thoroughly investigated. That kid could literally have gotten killed Thursday night.
  7. I see your point, but I am giving both teams a pass for anything they could have done better last week. In all seriousness, I am glad no player died on Sunday. In that heat and humidity, I don’t think any player was mentally or physically anywhere near the top of their game, especially in the second half. Stop with your nonsense. I was in here ripping the coaching staff after that 13 second fiasco. You on the other hand are happy regardless of win or loss as long as the we throw for 300 yards snd/or if you think the game is exciting enough for you. I’m sure you were delighted Sunday.
  8. McKensie tried to get OOB as he should. A sneak behind the 3rd string C? Right. Last play with trying to line the ball up?
  9. OK here’s one. Name something that was done wrong at the end of the game.
  10. Einstein starting threads that are the polar opposite of his user name are becoming a theme
  11. I teach anatomy and physiology. During the second half I texted my daughter that I just hoped no one would die. And I was serious. When you have guys the size of NFL player in full equipment in that heat, they are going to get dehydrated very quickly, and their electrolytes get messed up. And especially if potassium gets affected, it can lead to serious cardiac events. The amount of fluid in guys this size is just very hard to replace. You try to hydrate all week of course, but you’re not in the heat and such so the body would do what it normally does and excrete excess fluid. Under the conditions yesterday, even with IV fluids it would be hard to replace fluid and electrolytes as quickly as they were being lost. I think part of why we lost is some guys were just not capable of normal physical and mental function. Same would go for the Fish of course, but they did have shade to help cool down a bit more. i don’t think the game itself will affect the season much; we are still clearly the better team. But if I were a trainer or on the medical staff of both teams I’d be in the league’s face to get protection for these conditions. They’ll never tell the public but I suspect there were players yesterday on the edge of really serious complications.
  12. My wife hated it and thought it was a poor example for kids. I’m ultra competitive so I get it but it was over the top.
  13. At this point I just want the team to survive
  14. Yep. May need to put a backup in there.
  15. Ok boys, let’s matriculate the ball down the field!
  16. I screwed the pooch when I decided on that name, but I embrace my elder status! I was thinking more of Ed Harris in Apollo 13, but in honor of my daughters who both have been in tons of musicals I’ll take Hamilton!
  17. I believe this will be one of our finest hours. Even with the anticipated missing starters on D, the backups will rise up.
  18. Where it blocks my view? Absolutely.
  19. Ok boys, let’s matriculate the ball down the field!!!
  20. Hold onto the ball, cut down turnovers and penalties
  21. Excuse me for not posting something you don't like.
  22. While none of us know exactly what happened with Kim Pegula, Terry is no spring chicken. So if and when Terry passes on, and if Kim is permanently disabled due to her condition what would happen to ownership? Would the kids take over? Or would (gasp!) the team have to be put up for sale? We of course all hope Terry lives a good long life and that Kim is fine, but I am starting to wonder if Kim will make a full recovery. Meanwhile we can look forward to stomping the Titans on Monday!
