We went thru our son tearing his ACL, and I believe this is accurate. You don’t fix it, you replace it with a graft from a cadaver, your own patella tendon or your hamstring. You can’t just sew it back together. Sucks, I know……

I’ve been looking for a bright side, so how about this? Obviously we want Von all season long. He was great early this year, and next year we will have him for the back of the schedule and the playoffs, and that’s what we really wanted! It’s the best I got at the moment. 🤷‍♂️

A bit late.

But……if they were to spend a lot of time in close quarters with their DLine over the next few days I’ll send them a special Christmas gift. 😋

There is a BIG difference between consensual sex and rape. I doubt she was looking to get raped. (And I’m not saying she was, but the distinction had to be pointed out.)

I’d be SHOCKED (and disappointed) if Von walked away from all that money. I don’t see that happening at all.

Clearly a typo. I mean, the whole thing. What are the odds that those letters would pop up in that order? Disregard. .

We haven’t even seen all of our defense on the field at the same time yet. Losing Von sucks for sure, but we are still good enough to get the job done. The games he helped us win early, especially the KC game, will help us in the playoffs with seeding. Get well Von, can’t wait to get you back.

But they are both in the AFC, and we are trying to make this more of a communal football society. So, maybe? The portal can fix this……. .

Prove it. 😋

Yeah, I don’t know if you can get in trouble for posting what 95% of us are thinking, either. 🤷‍♂️ But talk about being terrible at games….I had a recent spell where people wanted me to guess a ladies age or weight. What? I am NOT kidding! Some games can NOT be won. I know I suck at that, but if I thought I was good at it, I’m still smart enough to keep my mouth shut!

OK, cool little parlor game. I am thinking of a certain poster. How many guesses do you need? Name That Tune was taken.

I went for the best emoji I could find. Nothing will help me get over this shock.

Wait! Spock DIED!?!? I haven’t gotten that far yet….you might want to warn a guy! 😋

Nothing to add other than thanks for a refreshing big picture view that seems to capture our current situation. Don’t judge by every 3rd down play call or 5th round draft pick. Step back, our present and future are bright.

Wait, are you saying we shouldn’t fire everyone unless we win the SB? I’m so confused!

SOME fans, and they can be insufferable.

Ahh, but the grass is always greener, as we know. I bet they have plenty of whiners on any team message board. I like to look at the big picture. We were a team that had not tasted the playoffs for 17 straight years. (You may have heard about this.) Now? With McD and Beane we are a regular SB contender and even a favorite most of this year. We stand 9-3 with the #1 seed in the AFC with a couple insane/for the ages losses. We could, and probably should, be 11-1 right now. But we are not. It is what it is, and we are still currently the #1 seed. There is still a lot of football left to be played. None of us know how this will end, but I like where we sit compared to where we were before the current regime. Talks of win the SB or you should be fired is just craziness and often comes off as unreasonable and a bit immature.

Speaking of KC, Andy Reid was once where everybody else starts - until you win a SB some people want you fired (see Philly). Then, when you don’t win the next SB, the same people will want to fire you again. I’m sure these people are all infallible titans of industry who win every negotiation and struggle with any mere mortals who don’t win every contest. He’s not perfect, nobody is. Especially the whiners who think they can just can him and do better. That was the old way of thinking. See Cleveland. How is that working out?

Not all people are worth listening to. It doesn’t take too long to figure out when you stumble across one worth ignoring.

Do you promise? 😋 .

Some folks are just on “manual ignore” for me.

Well, they do throw flags for taunting, and nobody gets injured there. 🤷‍♂️ It was a douchey move, but I can live without a flag or fine. It was a reflection on the DB, and how Diggs got under his skin. Let’s just keep winning while getting/staying healthy.

I haven’t followed along, so this may be out of context, but don’t let the upper bowl scare you. I used to be a “ticket snob” as we grew up with good seats. When I went back I figured the ticket was just one drop in the travel bucket, so go all out - it’s the reason you are there. A few years back I spent a game in the upper deck and the views were great. I hope they are equally good in the next stadium……downtown under the dome. Is that an automatic ban for mentioning that at this point?

I hope I don’t get fined for the questionable hammy I felt coming on when they signed John Brown. I swear it felt real!
