Likewise, I don't remember any heat related issues in camp last year.

All those players dealing with heat issues sounds a bit concerning with temperatures only in the 80's there. Players in the south have been training in the 90's for weeks now. It makes me wonder how are they going to deal with the heat week 2 in Miami with the 1 o'clock game time.

I think you need a new calculator. With a current net worth of about $200 billion he could give 200 people $1 billion and then be penny less.

You’ve gained some weight since your high school picture. 😂😂

So glad to see Riverton GONE! It's the best news I've heard this week!

Gilliam is listed as a Fullback now and had number change to 41.

I know what you mean, when I seen what he said he seen. Maybe Ice bowl is originally from Joisey.

Gerald Ford couldn't have said it any better!

I consider Basham’s potential as better than mediocre - more as a Phil Hansen caliber player. That is, not elite but dependably steady. What are you factoring on for the mediocre ceiling call?

There is no family allowed at this Olympics, he won't be there. My first and last contribution to an Ertz thread.

It looks like Nazair Jones is more of a 3 Tech as the Seahacks moved him to 5T DE when they had injuries at DE. He has a very interesting story and is someone you want to pull for, with what he has had to go through. "The 6-foot-5 Jones was the team’s third-round draft choice in 2017 out of North Carolina. A rare disease left him in a hospital for months having to re-learn to walk when he was 16. His was an inspirational story, reaching the NFL as a towering defensive tackle who chased quarterbacks and knocked down passes after what he’d bulled through to get there." "A rare disease left Jones frightened he may be permanently paralyzed. A previously strong, energetic teen athlete playing three sports is not supposed to be inexplicably paralyzed for weeks." Unfortunately he's had injuries mar his path in the NFL. https://www.thenewstribune.com/sports/nfl/seattle-seahawks/article242494226.html

Or one of your assistant coaches doesn't start beating up some kids on a beach, after arguing about some chairs.

LOL, my thoughts exactly. My best guess is - we drafted some OL and DL and hope we've improved.

It's true Ralph wanted the team to be in Miami. However, he didn't change his mind, he was denied there and settled on Buffalo later. "After an initial bid to create a team in Miami was denied, Wilson told Hunt, "Count me in with Buffalo."

Thanks! I was just trying to remember that sign off. I knew it had something to do with children. Great memories from my youth, RIP Rick!

Will you be coming through spaghetti junction (my neighborhood)? If so, pick me up. But I'm only paying for gas on the way back - to make sure you don't leave me there.

Hey, paisano - Pinto Ken, Pinto Ron... what's the difference? 😆 But we are glad Ken, aka Pinto Ron, is on the mend! 👍

Pure poetry! 👍

Earl must be related to Errol Flynn, they bear a very strong resemblance.

A retired Bills DT that you used to have as a profile pic. 😁😜

His father, Fran Sirianni, was my 8th grade science teacher at Southwestern Middle School. He had just started teaching that Fall after being cut from an NFL team after a training camp try out, as a DB iirc.

Did you know he lets his beard grow all season long?

Here is that good article on Epenesa which also mentions the team's requested weight loss. https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2021/01/bills-aj-epenesa-has-earned-prominent-role-in-unusual-rookie-season.html

They don't want Epenesa much bigger. In fact, Frazier said they earlier had asked him to drop from 280 down to 260, which he since has. Leslie said he's much improved since then, playing faster and with increased quickness, which I have noticed. Epenesa implied he'd like to add some muscle weight as he said he is about 255 now.

I would have said the Jets when it looked like Trevor Lawrence was headed there. Dabol knows this team too well, so I don't want him in the division. But now I think he will be going to Jacksonville, with Lawrence, and I will be glad to have them both (in the NFC - whoops, mixed up with NFC Panthers) out off the division! Of course I won't be crying any tears for Doug Marrone either, in that situation.
