  1. You know how weird it is to be advocating the allowance of gang symbols in professional sports?
  2. It keeps kids from emulating a sign meant for gangs. I coach youth sports and have literally seen kids make this exact gesture when scoring a touchdown. There is no room for it in sports.
  3. Gang affiliation is gang affiliation active or non-active. If you think there are no players in the NFL with gang affiliations, I think you're fooling yourself.
  4. In other breaking news ABC just announced "Water is indeed Wet"
  5. The first four words of your paragraph had me worried.
  6. 31 going on 32 year old coming off an ACL injury signs a 3 year deal. What could go wrong? 31 going on 32 year old coming off an ACL injury signs a 3 year deal. What could go wrong?
  7. Remember all the people who wanted McDermott fired for Daboll?
  8. Why do you want them to say? The team has been really good for awhile now. Maybe a good topic would be "why do fans think its easy to win a Superbowl?"
  9. Without question. A lot of people laugh that McDermott is pulled towards wrestlers. But it takes a different type of person.
  10. One of my favorite quotes is "hard work beats talent when talent wont work hard" and that's more true in wrestling than any other sport. The weight classes help to equalize the sport in the way other sports dont. Khabib Nurmagomedov use to talk a lot about taking his opponents to the "deep water" and youth-high school wrestling really does that without putting kids in real life or death situations. My youngest son had his first tournament in January. The first two matches were miserable for my wife and I, because you could see in his eyes he was learning tough lessons. But once he learned a bit about the "deep water" he got more comfortable in it and did very well in the tournament overall. Long story short, I agree, the sport teaches kids a lot about resiliency and fortitude.
  11. Without question my friend. I am blessed beyond measure in those things. I just understand the work sports require at that level, especially wrestling which is one of the hardest sports I've ever taken part in.
  12. He got to go back to school because he had both a COVID year and an Olympic Red Shirt year. That said, he was also in the WWE on top of being with the Bills. I'd say thats a bad look but the guy has accomplished more in 24 years than I will in my entire life. The way college athletics is setup these days is not uncommon to see 24 years olds compete. Hendrickson, the wrestler from Ok State who just beat him is 24 as well.
  13. Duke! Currently watching Louisville crap the bed.
  14. He is on the verge of ending the war in Ukraine. Even your beloved ABC News said as much yesterday. At the very least he is working at it instead of funding more death. No one nuked Gaza for God's sake. Such hyperbole with you guys. They did not remove history without rhyme or reason. A computer program used to get rid of racist DEI programs deleted it. It will be restored in days. The fact that you think the Trump administration purposely tried to remove Jackie Robinson and the Tuskegee airmen from American History shows how absolutely insane you guys have gotten. The fact that you think people of color need DEI programs to be successful in America also shows how little you think of them. "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." DEI programs go against that very decree. Biden shot down "racist Trumps" Garden of Heroes idea that would have included Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali, Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks, Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Billie Holiday, Coretta Scott King, Kobe Bryant, Martin Luther King Jr. What an awful racist to ever come up with such a dumb idea to celebrate African American heroes while at the same time deleting them from history....... The reality is you and your buddies sit around and wait for any mistake to jump all over it. The pearl clutching is insane.
  15. Upset over a few pictures missing from a website for minutes... Not happy about rescuing astronauts from space. Not happy about ending wars.... Ok I see how this works.
