Actually remembered to put $5 on the Bills this time.

I thought the thread was going to be about dropping $5k on the Packers.

So spot on, predicting that Shady would contribute and the close 23-21 score. All he guessed right was the number of turnovers, which at 3 is a safe reasonable amount to predict for a win over a good team. I was also telling people before the game that we were going to win, including that our defensive performance was going to carry over from the second half of the Chargers game. I just didn't think to throw it up on the forum for the "glory". But hey hail the inanimate carbon rod and you may now all flame me for crapping on the party with common sense.

Damn right it got ugly, in a hurry.

It doesn't work like that. You can make anyone look like an All-Pro or a complete bum if you "just take out" all their best or worst plays.

Last I checked, game day in the stadium is their workplace, and employers are entitled to have rules about workplace conduct including political statements and the like.

Even the worst NFL teams year to year are built of an All-Star selection from college. Every single one of them, even the backups on said worst team, was a good productive player in college. Now they have had years of additional skills development, strength training, etc. This brings the average player level far above even the best college team. A regular series of worst NFL team vs best college team would be like the Harlem Globetrotters just freaking clowning all over the Senators or whoever it is they play.

"It's too early to tell if Allen and Edmunds will pan out." Ok sure, but wouldn't that be double for whatever rookies you wanted next year instead? You're positive THOSE picks are guaranteed to pan out?

What the hell are you going on about?

Next thing you'll say is we have to score more points than them too. Get out of here with that crazy talk.

I have to ask, are you spelling it like that on purpose? You did it something like 7 times in the original post, that's what I was referencing by my other post.

This Petermann kid sounds good.

I could be wrong, but I thought the whole CTE and other serious effects was about receiving another concussion before you fully healed from the last one, not the number of concussions itself. Like in general, a guy who has had 3 concussions but spaced out and healed in between, would likely be better off than a guy who had 2 overlapping.

So Peyton started his career as a HOF QB? I think you missed the point of them "living down" those INTs by BECOMING HOF QBs.

Brett Favre, who holds the all time record for career INTs, yadda yadda... Peyton Manning, who holds the record for most INTs thrown by a rookie, yadda yadda... Yup, will never live it down, no matter what.

I agree, we shouldn't play Allen until we spend our next 5 1st round picks on stud O-linemen and he's had plenty of time to learn from Peterman.

Sounds a lot like confirmation bias to me. "Oh look, an incomplete pass. This clearly confirms my already entrenched opinion on his abilities."

Wow, I love when people quote the entire lengthy post just to drop a one line quip.

Yay we needed another Shady replacement thread.

I wouldn't take the bet solely on the fact there's no way in hell he would pay up the $10k. He's just trying to sucker $200 out of you. If he puts the money in some sort of guaranteed, notarized escrow in advance, then take the bet.

Mind detailing the specifics of the chat? Did you just say hi and they were like hey here's a bunch of free stuff for saying hi?

I just hope they don't give up a lot of big whiffed plays going "ballhawking".

Prima donna receivers will demand the ball even more, QBs will throw 100% of the time, and what metrics will you judge linemen or defensive players by? Good CBs who don't get thrown to to get pass breakups and whatnot will get shafted. SO many problems with this idea.

Their defense is based on everyone believing that the entire organization was literally too stupid to realize that hard (possibly) metal cleats and hard smooth surfaces might pose a slip/fall hazard. Actually, I might believe they really are that stupid now.

Complete bull **** they would try to fight the suit rather than settle out of court, claiming they couldn't have known it was an injury risk when someone was just injured in it the week before? Then saying the injury was really because of preexisting condition? Doesn't matter if there was one, he wouldn't have fallen and aggravated it if not for their negligence.
