No, that’s when they are going to tell you the penalty was forgiven due to an error at the lab tainting results which didn’t stand up under appeal. And THAT will be April 1.

That was an early thought for me as well, but I don’t know how it works for sure.

Do we get any Comp picks for this? I’m sorry, I’d rather laugh than cry.

I was properly spaced when I swallowed my ice tea wrong at lunch and started coughing. I couldn’t shake it, and it kept going. OH MY!!! If looks could kill! I’m holding up my glass and pointing to it. 😂 It was strange to see roads and certain places practically vacant. Right in the heart of all this we had to fly somewhere for something. We are thinking traffic would be light….for Atlanta at least. Boy were we wrong! My wife had flown almost weekly out of ATL before Covid, but DURING Covid was the first time ever that both parking garages were 100% full and we had to find a new place to park. EVERYBODY was traveling! We were shocked.

We have a photo in our kitchen of the sunset dinner cruise on the Seine from a couple years ago. If you get to pick one destination, Paris is not a bad option! I want to get more travel in before I get too old to enjoy it, but as long as the wife is still working we’ll have to just pick our spots. Of course, when the money stops coming in that may change my mindset!

Did you fall out of the plane or something? 😱 (We actually went skydiving a few years ago, pretty cool.) I don’t like the experience, especially leaving from the zoo they call the Atlanta airport. Security lines are ridiculous and the plane seats are cramped, but I like to be able to go places so I suck it up. It annoys me much more than concerns me. But there is always a chance something crazy will happen. That’s life.

Does he have a poor attitude as well? You made me curious.

Let me just take a moment to say that I’m glad we didn’t listen to the people who wanted to draft this guy. 😂

I feel a lot safer flying than I do driving to the airport in Atlanta.

Wow! That’s warmer than my 71 in ATL. I just finished watching Xavier blow a 14 point lead and get bumped by Marquette in the BE tournament. The weather helps my spirits. I need it. I have no idea what will happen with Hendrickson. They won’t/can’t pay him. I just hope he lands outside of the AFC contenders.

Oh, I’ve got the house opened up!

A ton of money is one thing, if it’s a fair and reasonable amount. What the Browns do with contracts makes me wonder if they take the short bus and need a tutor. Nothing at all wrong with any of that, unless you are an NFL franchise.

That was my thought. Let’s see you run around and play some football for a bit so we know he’s not gone full-Tua on us. Don’t get trapped in a nightmare high dollar contract if you have doubts. We can still offer when we feel more comfortable. I hope that’s just an abundance of caution, but can you imagine the meltdown here if we paid him huge $$$ and he’s in concussion protocol all season.

If nothing else we cleared some cap space and moved up about a round late in the draft. Take your lumps and move on.

Good thought. There is what looks like maybe a video from ABC7NY that doesn’t fully appear to me. Looks like something is up with that.

Page 2 looked just fine to me on my iPad. 🤷‍♂️

I still remember Walt Patulski drafted #1 overall. I just found an article that politely described his short football career as “uninspired”. 😂

I’m a big Xavier fan and about to turn on the Big East Tournament from MSG. I just can’t enjoy it the way I used to because of the constant turnover. I used to follow high school recruiting, then watch players develop over 3-4 years. With all the portal activity and NIL it’s like a new team getting picked at the YMCA every year. Who are these guys? I don’t begrudge the players freedom or compensation, I just don’t like the resulting product as much. 🤷‍♂️ . Okay now, let’s not forget about that pesky restraining order again!

Yeah, it’s funny how some of our “fans” think we are the only team that screws up. It happens all across the league. You just have to get it right more than most. Why do I feel bad laughing at that??? 😂

Bummer, I had you down for a dome, but that’s a nice thought, too.

Never have been tested for Whooping Cough. I’ve had Covid multiple times but only tested positive once. My wife kept testing negative and I kept telling her she had it. Eventually she did test positive, but it took several days. I don’t put a lot of faith in the tests, but if I feel sick I stay away from people. Fortunately, I’m retired so I don’t have to be around people when I’m not feeling great. That is rough! I have a buddy who got throat cancer and lost his sense of taste due to radiation. He had a terrible time for years because he couln’t force enough calories into his body to keep him going. Best wishes for you and the wife going forward. I still have this lingering cough that hits me pretty much every morning. I don’t know how many months it’s been. I’ve got a lingering something, as does my wife. It’s really strange! You’d think we are 3 pack a day smokers!

I think I read we saved about $2.7 Mil on the cap, which is pretty much what we get out of this, I guess. Better than nothing. I hate blowing a 1st rounder as much as anyone, but it happens across the league.

Probably, but everybody has a worst. He’s not alone, but I’d love to have known what the scouting on him looked like. Who was the lead scout, what did he think, and what is he doing today. We all make mistakes, but….

Not where @Sweats works. 😂 Damn, how did that get in my head? We added another piece. We’ll see how he’s used and if he can be more of the FS. We have a long way to go before the opener.

Sorry if I missed it, but how much does this affect the cap? EDIT: it just posted above.
