  1. I understand that, I played on teams in multiple sports for many years. What seems strange is that he would make it all the way to the pros being bullied and never learning to stand up for himself. It wouldn't shock me at all if Richie was gay.?
  2. https://deadspin.com/the-messages-from-jonathan-martin-to-his-parents-are-he-1522865373. Martin was extremely depressed from being bullied throughout his life evidently. Such a big guy was bullied by kids half his size but never stood up to anyone. Richie really got inside his head. Strange to me that such a sensitive guy like Martin ended up being a pro football player.
  3. It was hamberders from McDernolds Wemdys and BergderKings
  4. Anderson is a free agent I think, the guy's a beast. Went to Stanford and played alongside Harrison Phillips for a year. Maybe he goes elsewhere.
  5. Awesome #1 pass defense, average run defense and sacks. Need a stud playmaker up front on d. A better offense will definitely help.
  6. Not lately. $3 million dollars a touchdown this year.
  7. Is he the only 'space eating' dt in the league? If not, do the others almost never make plays?
  8. Career low of 17 combined tackles, 0 sacks, 0 QB hits. Star has trended downward for the last 3 years. Once again one of the lowest rated dts in the league. Just read a Carolina article about how glad they are to not be on the hook for his $11.5 million 2019 cap hit. https://www.catscratchreader.com/2019/1/15/18183035/which-2017-panthers-players-were-missed-the-most-in-2018-defense-and-special-teams-edition Say what you want about occupying blockers but that's the type of player he's always been, except he used to get in on tackles and pressure the QB a lot more. His role hasn't changed but his numbers keep heading down. I hated this signing, especially the fact the Bills are stuck with this guy for years to come.
  9. Jawuan James. George Fant. Trent Brown. are decent young free agent tackles I sense Glenn is just cruising and collecting paychecks at this point.
  10. Blue cheese or Ranch? My wife's maiden name is Heath, so that is a positive. He has played and coached in the NFL. Carolina. Youthful exuberance. I am cautiously optimistic.
  11. It's not that he doesn't catch them, he just doesn't do much with them after he does. He wasn't making people miss. I don't know if he was injured but his cuts and acceleration were not like his former self. I am not anti McCoy, I just think his play has fallen way off and the Bills could do a lot better for that kind of money. Look at the salaries of the top backs, not just the ones on rookie contracts. His pay is disproportionate to his play by a long shot imo.
  12. My dog lays next to my recliner while I watch late night movies. Doesn't move til I go to bed. Luckily not much of a snorer, he does run and bark in his sleep sometimes.
  13. Thnx for the update Joe. Sounds hilarious and painful at the same time.
  14. Reminds me of Men in Black. Looks like he smokes cigars and plays cards with his buddies.
  15. I remember reading about that years ago, crazy story. 'slow as molasses in January' my ass, the wave travelled at 35 mph.
  16. Exactly. My dog is always in the same room as me anyway. He really loves when we are all travelling and staying in the camper van.
  17. Sorry to hear that as well, our space is not huge but we spend plenty of time outdoors with the dog regardless of the weather. Hope you find another dog that needs a loving home.
  18. 2017 Mccoy was top 5 in rushing yards but still wasn't that great. Less than 4 yds a carry and in the bottom half of rbs in dvoa and other performance metrics. https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/rb2017 Even when in space this year he couldn't make anyone miss.
  19. The highest paid rb in the league in a reduced role. That would be great management. McCoy was terrible this year regardless of how bad the line was. How does the oline explain him being ranked 52nd out of 53 rbs in pass catching. https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/rb
  20. I don't know about bad seed, more like $17 million/per bad investment. Look at how his replacements performed for a mere fraction of the price. Add to that he will be out of football for over a year and a half when he plays next in a new system, who knows what you will get for the guaranteed 55 million or so it will cost you. Bad investment imo.
  21. Wife and I rescued our dog Harry when he was a year old. He will be 14 years old in June. Aussie, Border Collie, Healer mix, he is one of the smartest, most loyal, and loving dogs I've ever known. Super athletic still and an amazing ball catcher. He gets tired quicker than he used to though. Good luck and have fun with your new friend. I tried to upload a pic but it's telling me I can only upload 204 kb or something like that.
  22. I forgot to mention there is a documentary on Amazon Prime about Jack Herer's life, 'Emperor of Hemp'.
  23. A lot of people don't realize that hemp produces more oil, protein, and fiber per acre than any other plant. The oil and protein are extremely high quality nutrition. Hemp is also a nitrogen fixing plant perfect for replenishing soil in crop rotation. The fiber is perfect for paper and fiberboard manufacturing. Jack Herer from Buffalo wrote a book , 'The Emperor Wears No Clothes', detailing the history of hemp production in this country and the incredible benefits of the plant. Jack was a great guy I knew and spent a lot of time with in the 80s and early 90s on Dead tour and later in Eugene Or. until his death in 2010. His courageous work and other folks in the movement have directly contributed to the current wave of legalization. My friends Bill Conde and Soma had to leave the country late 90s to avoid imprisonment by the FBI, Bill owns a hostel and lives in Belize with his wife, Soma is very successful and well known in Amsterdam where he owns Soma's seeds and judges the Cannabis Cup.
  24. I didn't see CJ Anderson on that list. I am pretty sure he is a fa. He looked really good running the ball this year.
