Perhaps he is having a crisis of faith. He got his brain scrambled - sometimes players think about their future, their wife, future children etc., and come to the conclusion that that first contract money is a nice start for a young family. Better than a future that might include a permanently addled mind. If he chooses to leave the pro game, that's his choice. And a choice above criticism.

You are buying a service when you buy an airline ticket...not a long-term capital investment that moreover requires after-sale service to remain viable.

...forgot to include this in my post.

When he drops back in practice, have somebody shoot him in the back with a paintball now and then.

Specimen.

I'm happy that Ed's scarlet fever has cleared up...but it seems to have left him mute.

Another day with no alien sightings, Ray. Keep up the good work.

For whatever reason this season, nfl.com doesn't readily show IR listings. The CBS Sportsline site does - IR and also the injury reports for the upcoming games (when available).

Print your post out, and put it, along with a snapshot of yourself, in a sealed envelope. Write on it: To be opened when (your name) is 50 years old. Report back in 26 years with your reaction to re-reading what you said in November, 2008.

R.I.P.

Whatta pair ! Happy B'Day, Gents !

For your viewing pleasure...

The Bills have been one of the teams with relatively few injuries... http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/injuries/pup

I recall the Clinton failed intervention. What was the Bush Administration one you make reference to?

Cue Joe Biden. His six-month clock seems to be ticking.

Of course. This franchise is always subject to rapid sale if RW perishes. DJ, the current upper management are caretakers that without high (relative) cost, can be retained or not at the pleasure of new ownership.

See my subsequent post.

True.

"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." - President Abraham Lincoln, November 19, 1863.

I read somewhere on TBD, that Goodell attended the game and was dismayed at fan deportment. I can't say it was so - 2nd hand reports. Maybe the gate crunch described on another thread here?...dunno.

I suspect if asked about OCs', Gollem would say..."We hates them.".

Impressive. I think this new Administration should consider you for a cabinet position - Secretary of Defense.

These things are so prevalent. In recent months, I've see gems like - Obese people found to exercise less. - After heart attacks, patient's relatives found to improve their own personal diets. - Black preferences for fat-laden foods may cause their higher rates of coronary/circulatory diseases. This was a study in Britain, where they couldn't blame poverty and said so, since everybody in England has equal access to their (lousy) national health care system regardless of economic situation. I'm betting that that group won't ever get another farthing of grant money for that PC faux pas. - Women more susceptible to genital yeast infections than men. - Children living in a home without a father more prone to poor grades, poor deportment, and violent behavior. Grant money...I spent a couple of years working in the public sector - a university's civil engineering department. That dept. encompassed environmental engineering. A member got your tax dollars to investigate the volatility of lead when subjected to heat. I pointed out to him, the volatility of lead across temperature in the literature - established something like 80 years ago. He cursed me! I think a lot of these are because grad departments have to cook up thesis subjects to keep the cash crop enrolling and let it be shown that their department is vital.

Listen up: I said there are plenty of experienced eyes on Edwards. I don't think those eyes are malevolent. I'm aware about this post-concussion syndrome that folks have raised. And I cautioned against unfounded inference. About speculating about a person's mental state, about how intimation can balloon into character assassination. Somebody reads this site, this thread. Somebody else starts spreading words that Edwards is a mental case, and that crap grows, grows, gets picked up here and there until it shows up in the chuntering national press as assumed truth.

What a talented team that KC squad was...Coach Stram, Robinson, Bell, Buchanon, Taylor, Garrett, Thomas, Tyrer, Mays, Dawson, Arbanas etc.
