  1. I used to seriously read a book a day, however, now i just play games on my cell when i have some free time.
  2. Seems the Fins just picked up Tyler Huntley from the Ravens.......i don't think Tua will retire, but he could be out for the long haul this time.
  3. No one should have to come on here and feel dirty Unfortunately, i was one of the ones that wanted King Henry to come to the Bills...........sorry, not sorry.
  4. It's because the NFL is enamored over Bama QB's.......anyone who watched Young at Bama, could easily see that he is not a 1st overall pick, but because he flourished under Saban's system, he was put high on some teams draft list. Realistically, i could have seen Young go late in the first or maybe even into the 2nd round, no higher (a QB hungry team would have taken the chance on him), but to go when he did, is just irresponsible by Carolina. They didn't do their due diligence on Young and now they are paying the price of a bad decision.
  5. It looked like even after Tua ran into Hamlin, the back of his head bounced off the turf when he came down.........so he got a little double dose there from both sides.
  6. Well, with his comment, he might as well have.
  7. All i know is that after SB 27 (Bills vs. Giants), i was driving home from my sisters-in-laws place (where we watched the game) and i got pulled over by the cops.......not for speeding, not for drinking and driving, not for driving erratically, but because i had a Bills sticker on the back of my car and the cop says, "you know, you might want to remove that sticker on your drive home.......you're a moving target out there right now". We laughed and laughed......i had a few disgruntled motorists honk, yell obscenities and swerve in my general direction on the ride home (you know, like i was somehow responsible for the wide right), but the sticker stayed on. It was a wild ride home, but the fathoms of my Bills fandom shone that night.
  8. I'll take 8 all day long, but from the eye test it kind of looked like we were within top 5 IMO
  9. You son of a *****!!!
  10. I prefer Burrows if he ever figures out how to put it all together, but i went with LJ at this point......and it makes me puke saying that.
  11. Alright, so we can at least agree on one thing.
  12. What i'm saying is that the NFL absolutely loves Bama QB's for whatever reason and i suspect it's because they flourished under Sabans' system.....the NFL tends to shrug off the flaws of Bama QB's thinking they can correct them. ......and for the life of me, i don't understand why there is so much love from the NFL for subpar QB's unless they are enamored by the school (Bama) and not the player. I'm not an NFL scout, however i watch a lot of college ball and i never would have went anywhere near Tua, Young or Aj McCarron.....and i'm just a regular guy, so what do i know? Well, i know enough that Tua is down for the count, AJ McCarron was a bust and Young can't play in the NFL, so.......maybe i know a thing or two.
  13. And Bama QB's perform like **** in the NFL.......try and keep up here, son.
  14. But, Ohio QB's haven't been drafted too often in the top 3 lately.
  15. The reason i bring up Bama QB's is cause in college, they are all touted in the media as the greatest in the nation (of course under Saban's program, they flourish) and because of this, the NFL drools all over them and can't draft them fast enough. Tua is good, nothing great.......he was an accident waiting to happen in college and in the NFL?.......well, the nation is seeing how that's playing out presently, but people who follow college ball routinely have been saying how frail he was for the NFL caliber D's. Hurts, although he was the starter at Bama for a couple of years, technically was drafted into the NFL from UO. Young is too small for the NFL and Carolina, blinded by Bama QB college greatness snatched him up as the next Panther savior.......and how's that working out for them? AJ McCarron.......and nothing more needs to be said here. .......and the rest on that list, is nothing to write home about.
  16. Here's the list of the past 10 Bama QB's (i could have gone all the way back to 20)......you see any NFL standouts in there?
  17. Don't kid yourselves, not a lot of people were too high on Stroud either.
  18. Just one more example of another Bama QB that can't transition to the NFL.
  19. I know when i had to have neck surgery, the doctors made me sign a waiver that they would not be held liable if they damaged some nerves and i ended up paralyzed........seems reassuring, doesn't it? I didn't sign it and they wouldn't do the surgery until i signed it.......it's been 8 years and counting where i am still waiting to have the surgery. They won't do the surgery until i sign and i ain't signing it.
  20. All i know is that i just watched the KC-Bengals highlights and why do they show Taylor Swift every 2 minutes........in the highlights of the game. I can see showing Swift periodically during the actual game, but why show anything with her during the highlights? #disgusting
  21. You don't want to know what's in the "secret sauce".
  22. Any doctor worth their sauce would get Tua to sign an agreement to not be held responsible for any outcome, if Tua should decide to keep playing.
  23. In a presser one time, McDaniel said something along the lines that his wife has a lot of patience with him because who else would hang out with a 40 year old guy who still plays with Lego........not that there's anything wrong with that, however, i thought it strange for him to mention it in a presser and not his NFL highlights......or lack thereof.
  24. I'm saying NYG/WAS under 43.5
  25. i'll give an example from my own experience.... I played junior B hockey in Canada for a couple of years when i was in my teens. I was an average player, nothing special, but i could check like it was nobody's business......i was also checked many times while i had my head down (1st thing they teach you in hockey is to always keep your head up and have it on a swivel). I was concussed numerous times, but back then like 40 years ago it was like anything, rub a little dirt on it and get back out there. My coaches ended up telling me to maybe move on, as the concussions were piling up and it was affecting my play.....and i hung it up. You know what i did after that?........what any logical human being would do after being concussed numerous times, i joined a boxing club. I had two semi-pro bouts, lost one, won the other.......Arnie Boehm, my boxing coach came to me and said i should hang up the gloves (he could tell that past concussions were affecting my speech, my movement, etc. and he didn't want to be responsible if i got seriously hurt in the ring). So, i walked away from sports.......i was done. Fast forward to today, i have dealt with debilitating migraines since my early 20's........like, i'm talking like these headaches will knock me out for days. I have slurred speech and sometimes act erratically. It's the buildup of concussion trauma......i know it, the doctors know it, however there's nothing they can do about it with so much time after the fact. My opinion is that Tua should look at retirement........he has money, he has family, and sports aren't everything when your health is at risk......especially long-term health and affects.
