  3. Full tweet: "Evan Feldman, the attorney for the Employee of the Kelly Fleet, Inc and Julius Collins, the attorney for Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill, have issued the following joint statement: “The parties to the incident which occurred on June 18th, 2023 at the Haulover Marina involving Tyreek Hill have resolved their differences.”"
  4. Well, on the Dolphins forum, most (and I do mean a very big "most") are claiming Tua is better than Josh, lol. Also: In all seriousness, it's hard to get a franchise QB, or even close to one, as we well know. If Tua holds up reasonably well this year, Miami had better invest in him, less they waste away the likes of Tyreek, Jaylen, etc. Or they can tank, I guess, for Caleb and watch their fanbase and Tyreek meltdown, lol.
  5. Then Tua is next in line after Burrow, assuming all goes well with him this year.
  6. Well, technically calipers, specifically 10-piston aluminum calipers on the front; but, yeah, they are impressive:
  7. In case anyone didn't click the Star Tribune link above, there is a video of Addison pulling over. Looks like he pulled over on the left side of the freeway, and soon after there were four cop cars or motorcycles (?), judging from the flashing lights. It looks like one set of flashing lights is on the other side of the median, coming from the wrong direction? There is also a civilian vehicle ahead of Addison that he pulled u near when slowing down, so there was some other traffic. https://www.startribune.com/video-viking-addison-told-trooper-a-dog-emergency-was-reason-for-going-140-mph-court-filing-reads/600291951/
  8. Thanks for finding this excellent link. I think "shall not be limited to" is important. If they consider riding a motorcycle to be dangerous, then so is jet skiing, I would think. Also, regarding injuries off the field and with no relation to football. Let's say I was injured falling off a ladder at home doing normal maintenance. I am out of work for the year doing whatever job. You can bet most employers would fire me, or at least put me on non-paid leave, unless I had enough sick leave, vacation time, whatever, accrued. I knew an employee at a grocery store. He was diagnosed with cancer and started missing a lot of time due to treatment for it. The grocery store quickly fired him for not being available. You can't really blame them for that. So why can't Hines be cut (not saying I would) for something with no relation to football? That's what non-occupational disability insurance and Social Security Disability Insurance are for (the latter only for injuries lasting more than year and where you can't do *any* job in your field).
  9. I bet the contract states something like "engaging in jet ski activates", since he was obviously intending to ride or had already done so. People just don't sit on a jet ski for no reason. So no team can cut a player who is injured off-season and doing non-football related, most likely prohibited, activities? And why could there be an injury settlement when the Bills were not involved? I am just asking since this seems weird. Also, can the Bills void the contract guarantees this year since he was engaged in most likely a prohibited activity? Can they also void his accredited season this year and have him through 2025? I am not sure if this is really an "everyday life" sort of activity. Maybe it is. It also may not be reckless to sit on a jet ski but I would argue it is dangerous given what happened to him and other stories posted in this thread.
  10. LOL...ok so all is good now, since there was an emergency:
  11. And yikes...his twitter bio says "risk taker": Jordan when pulled over:
  12. Very dangerous to the public and reckless, even on an empty roadway in the middle of the night. At that speed, he could have come across an unseen driver, road work, or obstacle very quickly and spun out of control. You can't stop or slow down quickly at that speed. I have also seen cars flip over the wall or guardrail on an interstate and smash into a house, killing people sleeping. Just as bad as drunk driving or waving a loaded gun around.
  13. I would have nominated you for best jokes here on that other thread!
  14. Why wasn't he hauled to jail? In many states this a misdemeanor for criminal speed, and you have to make bail. Mandatory license suspension too.
  15. Yeah, but the thing is college softball is done for the season, but youth travel softball (and baseball) teams are big business year-round (except during the school season), especially in the summer. Parents travel all over the country with their kids, often staying at Hampton Inns or Marriott Residence Inns and the like. I used to stay at these hotels, and every weekend in the summer like clockwork you saw all these coaches, parents, softball players, and siblings at the hotel breakfast buffet before weekend games. It's a family affair, and expensive. All in the hopes of chasing that college scholarship. Plus, if a college-aged daughter were to be playing summer ball, usually it's locally, and there is no way McD would fly to Atlanta to see that. Parents might fly to their daughter's college games occasionally, but not for recreational games in the summer--after all, they've already secured their college spots and are adults now. (The only college-aged summer softball teams that really travel (sometimes) are the Stratford Brakettes and a few others. And that is usually by car with their teammates, and within a day's drive.)
  16. Do it! I agree they would be better in the teacher's lounge. Younger people would catch on too fast. They are called prank stickers. You can find them here: bit.ly/44OLNL3 or somewhat similar ones on Amazon, like: https://www.amazon.com/Activated-Stickers-Vigorously-Hilarious-Practical/dp/B01NAUCQIR This is the actual pic of the one I saw at the gym. Fooled me like a charm. I even went to GeorgiaPacific's website to see what I was doing wrong, lol.
  17. My local newspaper in the 80's sometime showed a picture of Bruce Smith carrying a window air conditioner to his dorm room at SUNY College at Fredonia to move in for training camp. I read in some newspaper that Thurman Thomas had "Tampa" written on his cleats in TC before the 1990 season (Tampa was the site of that season's SB). Joe Ferguson, as well as Dan Manucci and David Humm (Bills backup QB's) signed my autograph pad in TC sometime in the 80's.
  18. There needs to be a puzzled reaction choice for the smiley faces
  19. Ok...since we're talking stickers, a gym I was visiting this week had a: "Voice Activated Say 'Paper Towel Now' Loudly" sticker on the paper towel dispensers in the restrooms. Needless to say, I fell for this multiple times.
  20. In case anyone is interested, I added the Yelp page for this new location Saturday: https://www.yelp.com/biz/bar-bill-tavern-inc-rochester
  21. These responses are irrelevant. You are not the judge or the jury and don't enforce who has whatever rights. Everything with OJ was handled through the legal process, according to the Constitution and relevant statutes. He did not voluntarily up any rights. As with bin Ladin, this was an authorized military operation, and he had a chance to surrender. If he had, he would've been legally tried, just like Saddam was. I am also now going to bow out of this thread, as I can also see there is no point to arguing any further. People's minds are made up, and that is fine. Plus, this thread is not really about football and is becoming too political.
  22. I don't judge. That's not my job. I don't judge Hitler or Bin Ladin or anyone else. All have basic human rights.
