To the OP's point, just took a look at how many former quarterbacks are head coaches in the NFL. Currently 9 of 30 are former QB's. All 9 were either career backups, never played after college, or played in lower tier leagues (CFL, Arena, etc.) Frank Reich probably had more career starts than the other 8 combined. Guess carrying a clipboard pays dividends in the long run!

Fixed. Dumbest game in all of sports.

Even Ditka could have won the super bowl with that team.

Actually if you go to page 12 of the controversial opinion thread I quote someone who says global warming is fake news and say pretty much exactly what you say here, global warming is fact not fake, what is debatable is if it is man-made or naturally occurring phenomenon. I go on to say that regardless of what side of the debate you support, it won't hurt to decrease one's carbon footprint. Was just kidding here. But I shouldn't have done that as it is a controversial subject, have deleted that post. see comment above...deleted

Golic was describing how the coach asked Reggie White to explain how he had done something to shed a blocker (not sure it was something he did in practice or watching game film.) White began to explain his move, then through his arms in the air all frustrated and said I don't know, I just do it.

No reason you would have heard this. Fenton and one of golf buddies are good friends from the days when their kids played hockey for UMass. They became good friends, still vacation together in the off season, gets my buddy tickets when they're playing in town, all that stuff.

Paul Fenton (current GM for Minnesota Wild) interviewed for the Sabres GM job. He was told that they were really high on Phil Housley for the coaching vacancy and was asked how he felt about that. Paul said Phil was not ready for the job. Can't really argue that to this point.

This was loosely based on a guy from Pittsford. Really did get sent back to the states for his opening statement one morning..."Good Morning Vietnam. It's 6 AM. For all you enlisted men that's 0600. For all you officers, Mickey's big hand is on the 12, his little hand is on the 6." Pretty sure that's used somewhere in the movie but couldn't find it on youtube.

Global warming is fact not fake. What is debatable is if it is due to natural or man made phenomenon. Weather patterns have always changed. Ice ages for example. For those in the Rochester area, Lake Ontario used to extend to Ridge Road (read it on the world wide web so it must be true.) Back to natural vs man made, really I don't know, don't think anyone knows for sure. My guess is it is due to both. But even if man-made phenomenon has nothing to do with it, would it hurt to be less wasteful or decrease one's carbon footprint?

I bet no one took a charge on him

My opinion about flat wine glasses being better than stemmed somehow morphed in to it...not really sure how?

I just added a Craft beer exception

My solution would be to follow the New England model (duh.) Have your quarterback marry a really rich women. Then, like Gisele, they can tell their husband to go ahead and play their game, don't worry about how much you make. We'll be fine if you only get paid 2/3 of what you're worth. Let the team spend the rest of what should be your money overpaying for free agents that would otherwise sign elsewhere.

Wine tastes better from flat glass than from stemmed. Beer already comes in a glass and should not be served in a different one (Craft beers are of course an exception.)

This is horrible. So sorry for your mother. And for your family.

Thanks for the input. I'm leaning towards one at a time. At least another month before my shoulder heals. Giving Cannabis oil a shot. Started Saturday, both knees are noticeably better now. If they continue to improve may wait until next winter to start the replacement process.

She sounds angry on her facebook. Very angry. Very angry indeed.

And take the Bruins, Red Sox, and Celtics with you

Reminds me of an old Polish saying. If your horse has a broken leg, you can shoot the horse, but that won't fix the leg.

Heck no. The more he drinks the more I have to pull over so he can offload.

You were expecting millennials?

Thanks for the input everyone. For the most part my health is excellent. Except, of course, for that nasty little prostate cancer thing. Which I so far have been able to live with without addressing. Hope it stays that way.

Haven't seen the statistics for the first two. If I ever run for office, the next two will be part of my platform. Don't fly, but most of what you say in the last one make sense.

sounds like good advice, thanks.

Originally I had knee replacement surgery scheduled for mid-December. After mid-November snow storm, when I had to dig the snow-blower out of the middle of the garage, I could barely move my shoulder the following day. So I changed and had shoulder surgery instead, which I'm currently recovering from. Figured the knee replacement could wait a year. One of the good things about long winters is that there is plenty of rehab time without missing the good weather. Somewhere between the time I left the gym last Wednesday and woke up Thursday morning, my good knee became my bad knee. Must have been favoring it too much doing cardio. So now, instead of limping through a golf season and getting my knee replaced next year, I'm faced with the realization that this coming golf season might already be done. Do I want to get the knees done separately and double the rehab time or get them both done at once and maybe be back in action before the end of the summer? Comments from anyone with positive or negative experiences doing both at once would be appreciated. Thanks. (60's have been great. Can hardly wait for my 70's.)
