  1. BWord. I want fall. This is going to be the next two weeks in Atlanta.
  2. https://www.si.com/nfl/2022/04/15/robby-anderson-weighs-in-possible-baker-mayfield-panthers-trade
  3. That 13-10 score will be the talk of week 1.
  4. 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.
  5. Or they can kick it like futbol players.
  6. Just imagine giving up 3 1st round picks for a QB who might never play for you. Dayum.
  7. Well you were wrong. Did you know he did it twice?
  8. 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.
  9. 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...
  10. I forgot he was on the team….seriously.
  11. Even if the Browns can somehow get out of this with only a small financial penalty, losing multiple picks including 3 - 1st round picks is going to kill them.
  12. Steph Curry is my favorite NBA player of all time. Jordan is the best but Steph Curry is so much fun to watch. I haven’t been interested in the Finals in like 20 years. He has made me watch.
  13. It was pointless. The office shutdown because it wasn't making money about 15 months later. Our business plan was terrible. Our VP tried to cut labor costs down by not hiring a full staff and having only a few people run the entire office.
  14. Rex Ryan got fatter when he was here. Probably eating a lot of that disgusting blue cheese.
