Something hinky going on here, 1st w carotid rationale business, and/but(?) now nerve issue is the problem. With due respect to this doc (not ref you personally), he obviously knows med piece, but must not know anything about carotid techniques or mma (aka, mcamp/combatives). Don't know what a "hit" to carotid is, but it would be a rare successful strike...not incl combat gsw, which is damn near fatal. More to the point are carotid chokes, often a "rear naked choke". It's happened to me many times (aka, my a** kicked up and down), and I've handed out one or two. Even w, say, 2-3s of carotid choke, recovery is surprisingly quick...you do NOT look like PH did. Or at least I've never seen it. Squeeze long enough, no doubt you can really hurt someone. Also, imo, guillotine choke (cuts air supply) is more dangerous, esp as some techniques crank the neck. Not saying I'm the Great Martial Artist (most definitely not) but this is well known amongst practicioners. Personally, I've decided this is a complex conspiracy, meant to gin up ratings. //sarc

I got you brother, so was I! This ain't Planet A-hole forum, as you well know. Maybe I should have added the sarc tag to mine, but I still can't figure out it's meaning.

Perhaps confusing @streetkings01 w me? If so, how dare you sir: I am a Duke by god, and have no time for the Hoi Polloi.

Yes sir. Didn't think of him. There is even a physical resemblance. Wish I could do a side-by-side, but I'd just torque it up.

Like the Island of Misfit Toys? Edit for OP @jwhit34: meant this in a humorous way. I mean, think about the characters... King Moonraker=Beane, Clarice=Kim Pegula, Coach Comet=Obvious; Hermey=Josh Allen; Rudolph=Diggs, the misunderstood reindeer who can fly. Don't know if we have a Yukon Cornelius though.

Roger all and thanks. I am Un Grand Artiste, always in search of motivation. /sarc tag (which I still don't quite understand)

Yes, my stupidity > actual brain function. In my defense, I thought this was the immediate-hot-takes-without-thinking thread.

This is, without question, an occipital lobe concussion, w clear spleen-itis complications. He will be out for 8.3 days. I kid...I'm just freakin' kidding. Edit: that said, he sure looked like he was in the Land of Cookoo for Cocoa Puffs.

As always, thanks @Virgil. I always like your insight re the "lesser-noticed", in this case Horrible and EO. One thing--and I trust I didn't miss it in your review--is that Tre is an under-appreciated tackler, imv. Also, wish I could give double like for Bobby McGee ref. Great song to play on guitar, capo or no capo. Finally, what is your "process" on the weekly #4s? What spirit moves to drop a particular verse?

So Bill-sy that this, of course, is the week with extra day of rest. Edit: forget the stupid s**t I said above.

Hadn't thought of this. Interesting take.

With apologies for multiple comments... Yet another great Bark Jacket-Waving moment. He is our MVJW.

Yes, completely normal. All I remember is someone screaming in my ears (well, it was me), and then I lost all proprioception.

Mods: a good example of why we need a "Greater Than Awesome" button. Not that it won't complicate your lives or anything...

I just now understood this. Apologies, I'm slow. Damn funny.

I'm honestly not trying to wash balls here but... that is a freaking genius comment. Never ceases to amaze what can be found at TSW.

Yes, which is exactly why one uses certain chemical weapons only during an inversion layer. So, how far can I pull this thread off the rails?

Agreed. But, quick add: my comment(s) were in context of LJ's apparent lack of improvement in his reads, esp vav JA. Scheme, LJ issue, both? Personally not sure.

Well, there's also issue of cooler air over a surface area, thus wave refraction, leading to "more" sound, then... Ahh, screw it, this is too nerdy.

@Shaw66: you are truly a national treasure (yes, I said "national"). cc: @SlimShady'sSpaceForce@Hapless Bills Fan@YoloinOhio, others.

This. Can't remember where I commented earlier, but I reviewed alot of this season's LJ tape (not A22). Amateur conclusions: he is god awful at read progression, and rarely (never!?) looks off a DB. He is an exceptional RO qb, if you're into that kind of thing.

Thanks OP for this topic. Love to hear the at-game stories. It was so loud--even before the game--that I asked "wtf?" (paraphrase) in the pre-game thread. Good on 'ya @BADOLBILZ!

No. Please, please--OCD or not--continue this wing ritual. Relate to your wife "higher cause" rationale, or something similar. Whatever it takes Olliemets: every man, woman and child must contribute. (Not being sarcastic)

Wow, Marcus Aurelius using this phrase: one of the Great Stoics. Not something you see every day. Well done!

Damn, you caught me T&C. Yes, these are of course sock puppet board names. You should become a SSE SME operator, somewhere in Syria, Somalia, or elsewhere. Btw, if you have to look up the acronyms, then you ain't ready. Jesus.
