  1. It feels like most of the plays that have targeted him have been poorly executed.
  2. My guess would be it's potentially a reference to someone with a disability, but that's a big stretch. I'm also high level worker in that field, so I'm super sensitive to certain terms. "Spaz" doesn't trigger me. Without looking it up, I'd describe a "spaz" as someone who moves and acts erratically. That seems harmless. And I HATE Tom Brady with the passion of a thousand blazing suns. Edit: I looked it up. Interesting: The word “spaz” is a shortened form of the medical term “spastic”. The earliest known use of the verb “spaz” was in the 1930s, and the earliest known use of the noun “spaz” was in the 1950s. The term “spaz” has evolved from a derogatory description of people with disabilities to a casual word for clumsiness or otherness. The term “spastic” comes from the Greek words spasticos and spaon, which mean “to draw out” or “stretch”. The term “spasm” was already in use by Hippocrates to describe an epileptic fit. The term “spasticity” is used to describe abnormal muscle tightness due to prolonged muscle contraction. It is a symptom associated with damage to the brain, spinal cord, or motor nerves. The term “spastic” was dropped by a major professional society that focused on cerebral palsy (CP) in 1994. This was in recognition that the term “spastic” had been co-opted by some in the lay public and applied as a derogatory term meant to bully.
  3. Totally saw that too. He's also keeping his feet moving during contact and breaking more tackles. Really impressive stuff.
  4. Nope! Just immature as hell. You should try it! It's wicked fun.
  5. I enjoyed the Brady commentating. He actually called Allen a "spaz" at one point, I almost chocked on my wing dip.

  11. I think the assistant manager position at Burger King is open in Hoboken.
  12. Keon is a playmaker. Some people just have it
  13. I guess we disagree on what possession is. He had the ball, I don’t know what else you want. It only moved after he got the 2 feet down. Sometimes because the way your body is moving you have to adjust the ball in order to maintain it in your hands.
  14. I totally agree they need to get rid of that little nuance. if the ball doesn’t hit the ground it’s a catch. End
  15. Is Boogie even “boogying” anymore? God I couldn’t stand that dude.
