Offside Number 76

But isn't that its own safety issue? Like the reason we don't see Andre Reed-sized pads anymore is because the pads themselves could be used as a weapon?

Well, the odds of being struck by lightning increase significantly when there, you know, IS LIGHTNING.

There's no need for a rule change. It's a one in a hundred million shot. Unfortunately, that still is a non-zero chance. It's happened in hockey a couple of times--one guy (Chris Pronger) even went on to have a HoF career. Hopefully, Hamlin will live a long and full life, maybe even with football as a part of it. But there's no need to change the rules for what is essentially a freak occurrence. I did read somewhere that some softball pitchers choose to wear extra protection over the heart to prevent this type of thing; I guess that is one possible rule change.

Some serious undervaluing of AJ going on in here, IMO. No, he's not Bruce Smith, but his play above replacement level is greater than Bass's play above replacement level. (And I like Bass, don't get me wrong.)

It's not insensitive. His health is not his first priority and it certainly isn't the team's. The league needs to fine Miami over this.

100%. There was no occasion to laugh during the entire sketch. I felt bad for the actors, frankly.

What a horribly bad sketch.

Harbaugh is Jackson's biggest obstacle.

PLEASE don't get nineteen kinds of wasted and embarrass us, ok?

The losses...check that list of games again.

I would love an alternative to Admiral's Cup in Baltimore. Nothing against the place itself, but I went three times last year (Tennessee, Jacksonville, and the New England loss) so I'm trying to stay away.

This varies from place to place and maybe even from hospital to hospital. ECMC does not do so routinely; the patient has to ask for it.

Not necessarily. ECMC, for example, does NOT run tox screens unless requested by the victim. It is irresponsible, but it is ECMC's practice.

And you people who vomited at my post last week, well, now you know why. Keenum is awful.

Yep, that's why it is...

This! Give me a punter who can do this!

A punter certainly can outkick his coverage. That's why the hang time stat was discovered/invented (in large, as a response to Reggie Roby with the fins, who could seemingly kick a ball into the clouds) to begin with. It's a delicate balance. Directional punting, which fell out of favor for about 25 years but seems to be regaining a foothold, can combat that.

What a shock to the conscience. I don't want him on this team. If something happens to Allen, I want Barkley in.

If you've flown since 2001, you know that it's about 75% that the airline employee started it. They all think they're junior gendarmes now.

I can't do it but I was in Schopp's Sabres group for a few years and know the mechanics of it, if you need help. If so, message me on SS. --11.

I'm a big fan of using the backup QB to hold for kicks. It opens up all sorts of possibilities.

It's not THAT long ago that The Who played, right? Oh. Wow. It is.

They look like MAC uniforms.

I still want Ertz. I'm watching his wife right now.

52-17.
