  1. As I predicted last year, the Bengals will win the division again. Book it homie!
  2. They were down by a lot, playing a lot of prevent defenses in the 4th quarter and still only averaged 24 points a game which was 18th in the league. His splits weren't good when they were ahead. That shows me he had a lot of garbage time stats.
  3. Look at how lopsided his splits are between behind, tied and ahead. 26 of his TD's were when he was behind on 367 attempts. They were a 4-12 and behind a lot, especially late in games. Not to mention the Texans averaged 24 points per game which is slightly below average.
  4. Glad you got through that. Awesome story of conquering adversity.
  5. We also extended Diggs a few months ago.
  6. Guys, I'm really terrified they never get back together. This is like the Beatles breaking up again. Can someone talk me off this ledge? https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/bts-announce-hiatus-1235087020/
  7. How come I wasn't invited to Steely Dan? I like 3 of their songs
  8. BWord. I want fall. This is going to be the next two weeks in Atlanta.

  10. That 13-10 score will be the talk of week 1.
  11. Yep. He tried a 2nd comeback. The mental toughness he had is unreal. Happened once...yeah I would probably attempt a comeback. If it happened twice, I could never throw a baseball hard again in my life. On May 26, 1999, while pitching against the Texas Rangers, Saunders suffered a significant arm injury while pitching to Juan González.[2] As he delivered a 3–2 pitch to the Rangers slugger, his pitching arm suddenly snapped with enough force that the sound of it could be heard throughout the stadium. Saunders subsequently collapsed on the mound, screaming in pain and smacking his right arm on the ground. Within moments, team trainer Jamie Reed and teammates John Flaherty and Kevin Stocker rushed to his side. Saunders had to be carted off the field, as the pain was too much for him to walk. He was diagnosed with a humerus fracture and torn ligaments in his arm, an injury severe enough to end his season.[3][4] Saunders attempted to rehab the injury and make a comeback, and was sent on a rehabilitation assignment in August 2000. He successfully pitched in two games for the Class A Charleston RiverDogs, then moved to the Class A-Advanced St. Petersburg Devil Rays.[5] On August 24, during his fifth rehab game, Saunders’ humerus snapped again.[6] With the break occurring in almost the same spot as it had before, Saunders retired immediately afterward, aged 26.[7] Saunders was the 2000 recipient of the Tony Conigliaro Award, which honors a major league player who "overcomes an obstacle and adversity".[8] After baseball, Saunders worked as a stockbroker.[9] In 2005, Saunders announced a comeback, signing a minor league contract with the Baltimore Orioles, and making their spring training roster. He pitched one inning against the St. Louis Cardinals before he was reassigned to the minor leagues. He remained listed on the Bowie Baysox roster for the whole 2005 season, but never pitched in a game, although he did appear in nine games for the Mesa Miners of the Golden Baseball League.
  12. Or they can kick it like futbol players.
  13. Just imagine giving up 3 1st round picks for a QB who might never play for you. Dayum.
  14. Well you were wrong. Did you know he did it twice?
  15. They'll throw about 30 pitches in the bullpen to warm up before the game starts. Then they get 8 warm up pitches before the inning starts. They'll take two days off and then start throwing again...probably some long tossing at some point.
  16. A baseball players arm requires more "snap" and they throw different pitches...the elbow goes through so much more strain. QB's aren't throwing curveballs, sliders, split fingers etc... Plus they throw hard every throw. You don't change your arm speed on change ups. A QB isn't sitting back and throwing with everything on every throw. There's touch passes, lob passes, quick slants etc...
  17. I forgot he was on the team….seriously.
