  1. A Point, that last. Call me unobservant, but I think he looks about the same or maybe actually in better shape last training camp than this? LOL Could be, but he seems to be paying a bit more mind to offseason fitness so maybe not? I don't think Adam Schefter is much given to sarcastic captions of NFL stars. No
  2. This is a really good point, Shaw66. Lotulelei is not all that big - 6'2", 310 Harrison Phillips - 6'3", listed at 307 but in interviews said he was playing at 320 before the ACL Ed Oliver 6'1" listed as 287 Vernon Butler 6'3" 330 is about the biggest of the new signings Eli Ankou at 6'3" 325 Meanness is a good question. As I recall, one of the NFL Network reporters literally questioned Harrison Phillips manhood (in a football sense) saying she'd been around plenty of top DLs and they were some pretty mean guys, "are you guys mean enough?" I kind of felt like one factor with the AFCCG was how fast and physical the Bills had played the Ravens the week before. They really put it all out there. It seemed like they were a bit out of "gas" the next week against a team with fresh legs coming off a rest.
  3. I mean I know there's a muscle that can stick out there when it's strengthened enough https://www.instagram.com/p/CQy3PpXr18B/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link External oblique maybe? I know if I post the wrong gouge someone will come along and correct me. But Knox here still has a bit of a roll over his, and Roethlisberger looks like he's got "handles"
  4. Why would the Rams trade a 3rd round pick for a former 3rd round pick with two seasons of "wear" on him, who looked and ran like he didn't really mean it towards the end of last season and failed to haul in a critical pass in a Championship game?
  5. We have a cool mod feature I just learned about and this seemed like the perfect time to try it out so....this gets its own thread now! Hope you don't mind, @Shaw66
  6. Does he? I think he's still got quite the "spare tire" under that t-shirt
  7. For future reference: You can view Twitter without an account from any device with a browser by searching for Twitter and the person's name twitter cody ford Or to get more specific, if you know their screen name use that proceeded by an @ sign twitter @cody_ford74 This was discussed in another thread, without the tweets it lacks substrate for disussion, and the relevant tweets appear to now have been deleted So Imma close this Social media inspires everyone to puff out their chest and bluster like they're big-time
  8. His face looks less chubby to me, but he looks like an OLman or a large TE in the belly
  9. The Ways of the Bad Word filter are Mysterious and Way above my Pay Grade to decipher.
  10. https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/coronavirus/covid-19-data-insights/covid-19-cases-by-vaccination-status/
  11. https://www.instagram.com/stories/brittwilll/2622349787671907508/ Yes, gorgeous, I missed you terribly (the puppy, not Josh's girl) I posted some screen captures as well, but I don't know how to pull a video out of Instagram and post it as a file. I would if I could - I know it can be done. Just ignore if that bothers you and you don't want to Instagram - I believe you can ignore a thread.
  12. Unless he's opening a restaurant or launching a clothing line
  13. That was so bad. Like the Superbowl, the reffing of the NFC Championship game had too much to do with the outcome. I may be out of the loop but I hadn't heard they actually offered him an extension and would have made him highest-paid QB in football.
  14. I agree with you Players have a legit beef and point that keyboard warriors are brave dish all sorts of crap to people that they wouldn't say to their face In fact chances are that same person would go all "fangirl" and be asking for the guy's autograph and acting like "best friends" and players know that.
  15. You would need to visit a "polio endemic country" such as Afghanistan, Angola, Benin, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, China, Congo-Kinshasa, Ethiopia, Ghana, Indonesia, Kenya, Mozambique, Myanmar, Niger, Nigeria, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, and Somalia to find polio-vaxxed people who have been infected. It's a numbers game. Over and out.
  16. Cutting him: I don't know. For starters, depends upon whether or not there was, in fact, a team request not to discuss such matters. I'm certainly not going to defend it. I think it's very poor.
  17. Beane said that to his knowledge, the team had not been instructed by management not to talk about covid or vaccine issues. So I dunno. But Allen and Edmunds and Poyer certainly responded in interviews as though there had been at least a player discussion or player leadership request to that end.
  18. And just where were you when you said this, Grasshopper?
  19. This is a valid question/idea and deserves a thoughtful response. We tried to run that way pretty much all summer in 2020. It was really rough. The mods who were in town and active were working super-hard to remove responses that were insulting, rude, and contained misinformation and falsehoods. @SDS was getting bombed with Love Notes from people who just couldn't understand why their far right (or far left for that matter) low-factuality source wasn't given equal standing with New England Journal of Medicine or a high-factuality vetted source. Contentious, non-football threads were taking over the board. Matters came to a head, the mods weighed in off in the Mod Corral, and @SDS made a decision that is encapsulated in the pinned post at the top of the page. But every time a thread like this starts, our experience is that people forget the requests in that pinned post and dive into general opinion about covid and politics. Other people can't resist responding, so one post by one poster quickly grows to 10 or 20 posts by 8 or 9 posters. In theory, it would be great to do as you suggest, but in practice it simply doesn't self-police well. The burden on the mods quickly escalates trying to keep things in line.
  20. Not gonna keep up here, but the point is that 99% effective initially (and unknown duration) is different than 100% immunity. Example: 1% infection rate would mean 3.325 million infections per year if everyone were regularly exposed to polio. 100% would mean 0. But we don't see that, because herd immunity means when a polio case enters the US, the probabilities of the infected person bumping into an unvaccinated or susceptible vaccinated person within the US are very very low. There is a reason why US travelers to "polio endemic" regions are required to get a polio vaccine no later than 12 months from their date of entry. This is my lane
