Looks like this will be about half of his effort to earn that big fat contract! It’s almost like an endorsement deal!

That’s not NEARLY negative enough! Some people go to such great effort to find the dark side of everything. This is not Robert James having his career ended by a knee injury. They get better at the surgery and rehab every year. Any old stats (full disclosure: I read very little of the OP because I didn’t see the point) are not relevant today. My mother had her hips replaced two years apart, and the second one was a piece of cake compared to the first. My son was playing high school basketball 5 months after his ACL surgery. Tre has the best of the best available for surgery and rehab. He’s working hard, I’m confident he will be fine. I expect him to come back cautiously and wisely. I fully expect him to be the same player he used to be given adequate time. I’m not going to create problems in my mind that don’t actually exist. To say only 28.5% are still active in the NFL three years later is pure BS and intentionally misleading, with the average NFL career only being 3-4 years. .

This looks a LOT like Jon Gruden’s son in high school. We ran into them in summer 7 on 7’s. Something……”unnatural” seemed to be going on. 🤷‍♂️ Be CAREFUL! Deshaun Watson got in trouble for that! .

We seem to have a minor technique issue here.

Still watching? How loooooooonnnnggggg is that movie? This makes a baseball game feel like the blink of an eye!

….AND, in a special guest appearance playing the roll of Bruce Smith……Von Miller! .

So, do I see you or @Gugny for the refund on my pre-paid 3 year subscription?

The whole thing is so unfortunate, but I agree that if it helps the driver and the driver’s loved ones, it is positive information. Other than that, maybe it can serve as one more cautionary tale thrown on top of the mountain of warnings that came before it.

Some people just have a desperate need to throw stones. Beane and McD don’t get credit for the Bills being good because Josh gets all the credit. Really? Well, who drafted this raw talent then developed him? Football is more than ever about having a good QB, but it’s still a team game. Even the best QB can’t win without a solid roster around them and good schemes. Who went out and got him Diggs, Gabe Davis and Knox to work with? Does Josh get credit for that, too? Nothing is perfect, but people who complain about this FO are just looking to complain about something…….or trolls who need a home visit from the MIA @DC Tom!

And I’ll be there right behind you, passing out the milk and the Tums! (I prefer peppermint, but you’ll get what you get!) I’m a bit embarrassed that I have not been there yet, but I was a kid when I left WNY in ‘77. No idea when they popped up, but it’s a top priority next trip.

OK, it’s been an hour. How many and how ya doin’? 😋

I’m not here to start anything, but it seems like he needs your advice.

Horses and cows, I’m guessing? 🤷‍♂️

By “respectable”, would the #1 ranked defense in the league be enough? Because that's what the Bills had last year. In today’s NFL, even the best defenses struggle with the best offenses and QB’s. If we had a hard time with Mahomes, I bet the #2 defense (the Patriots*) is pretty upset that they can’t even make Josh and the Bills punt once in a while! (While I personally could not have been more thrilled! 😋) That is the league today. Don’t let 13 seconds cloud your vision, we had a good defense last year. There’s always room for improvement, but I didn’t see a ton to complain about.

Not complaining, but I’ve seen a single order as 5, 6 or 10. Just curious about what you mean to put it in perspective. It’s insane how expensive they have gotten!

Or the Browns. I just keep saying it, but it starts with the owners and works it’s way down. I don’t know how they can overcome Haslam. That fully guaranteed contract was idiotic, desperate and bad for the league.

He generally come off as a whiny punk on the way to victory as well. I think it’s because…….

WAIT! Are you saying we are NOT all getting ponies? I was told……. All this talk of how they should have kept running the ball reminds me of Super Bowl XXV. Hand the ball to Thurman, and collect your trophy. But NOOOOOO, we wanted to win “our way”. Hey! I just wanted to win, and ego got in the way there. I’m doing much better now……

If you factor in the sheer volume of kale and broccoli smoothies that would be, it’s a frightening thought! In so many ways…..

Well, I figure to each their own, but I don’t like your odds here. On SO MANY levels……..

Oh, I saw it down at the bottom! You were on thin ice there for a few fractions of a second! 😋

Saban did apologize today saying he shouldn’t have named a single person/school, but it seemed clear to me he was asking for donors to step up. I don’t think he likes the current trend in recruiting, and at his age I wonder if NIL doesn’t affect how long he remains. I think Jay Wright of Villanova just didn’t like the direction of things, and said enough is enough. I made my mark, and I have all the money I need. The cesspool is rising, and I prefer a seat on the sidelines. I’m all for some level of player mobility, and they should be paid what they’re worth, but I don’t know how they fix this mess, or what college sports will look like in a decade.

You had better be kidding! I thought we might have to quarantine you with @Royale with Cheese! You wouldn’t want that, I promise! I love a good wing, but I can’t pound them. The smallest order is usually 5 or 6, and I usually have one or two left over. Saves a fortune at current crazy prices! I’ve seen some menus that have the price as “market”, like it’s lobster or something! I have a friend who will tell you he should lose about 50 lbs. We went to lunch one day at a place I often stop at for a slice. He wanted wings too, so I suggested an order of 10 wings. I only wanted a couple, so it seemed reasonable. He said “well, they’re really good left over (NO, they are NOT), so let’s make it 20”. I had my 2 wings, and he finished off the rest. I could not have done that to win a bet! He apparently burns fewer calories than Josh. .

I never liked Cutler, but it’s not really his fault. He sent pics of the friend’s wife to @Gugny, and he said he would. He just got some bad advice. 🤷‍♂️

To bring your list to five, I’ll throw in one I’m surprised hasn’t been mentioned already: Tom Brady trying to convince the refs he was hit late, in the head or below the knees. .
