It'd be a step up from where he's living now

Sometimes it takes two days to clear that kind of cheese 🧀🧀🧀🧀🧀

Or a pit bull?

Goddammit, I'm sick of excuses!

This is probably on the money. Too bad, that kid looks like he's a lot of fun to tackle for 4 qrtrs.

Not a bit. Working with Sweats cannot be easy.

Ummm, there's another former OK State RB that might be a better fit here.

Yeah, they amended it about 20 yrs ago to only disallow pulling and grasping, with no mention of pushing. What, you don't like our scrawny TE with a torn PCL pushing Allen on one leg?

At the risk of misappropriating Denzel, it's not what you know, it's what you can prove. The mass disadvantage is only cancelled out by fully committing your entire front 7+ directly to the LOS, which leaves you intolerably vulnerable everywhere else. I'm doubtful the league actually does anything, partly because they want to give offenses every advantage and partly because it's success rate is becoming negligible as you've pointed out. The only thing I find remotely interesting about it is that it can tend to point up which teams are willingly to be innovative in how they execute and defend it.

It is mostly that, but the DL is at a definite disadvantage when the O is allowed to add extra mass with another layer of blockers behind the ballcarrier. I agree with the insignificant observation, as I can't seem to get myself to care much about it either way.

Sauce, heavy enough that it almost becomes a fork and knife endeavor. Cheese, applied liberally. With a trench shovel. Pepperoni, in amounts that most folks would consider obsessive and frightening. Maybe the very occasional bit of ham, thin-sliced tomater or light scattering of banana peppers. Anything else is a foul manifestation of evils borne of the bowels of hell.

I'd guess people see it as boring and predictable and the league doesn't want that. Although that would sort of conflict with their ongoing mission of helping offenses in any way they can think of. They're not going to ban any formations or play calls, but they could rescind the rule change from twenty years ago in which it became legal to push a runner while still being illegal to pull him or "grasp" him. Just make aiding the runner a penalty again with no caveats re: pushing, pulling , etc. Hell, they don't enforce that anyways; we've seen Dawkins and Brown grabbing guys by the shoulder pads and pulling them forward multiple times. 🤷‍♂️

That's very very possible, but it might not matter as much. Jackson is a bit undersized but he's a legit gamer who's shown some ability to play physical, aggressive man in short areas. He'd certainly be a liability against faster receivers, but knowing McDermott, just because they want to play more man doesn't mean they're going to scheme it where chunk players are more available to offenses. He's risk-averse enough in that regard that Jackson might still be a good fit here at the right price.

Then I retract my previous statement. He done ***** up.

I was under the impression that the boss gave everybody a world class ass-chewing before he sent them packing.

This is what happens when self-restraint gets the better of you.

If he didn't have a problem with it, he wouldn't have booted them at all. He's got a responsibility to the client that he can't just abandon because the FNG was upset. If you're upset about how it was handled, you're being self-righteous and are in the wrong.

Hanging out with Steven Seagal, Dolph Lundgren and Sylvester Stallone?

I've only ever seen her in one thing and she was fantastic.

There's a doggy "style" joke buried in here somewhere but I can't find the damned thing 56

If you count the last two years of HS I'm almost at 42 years with the same extraordinarily lucky woman.

Geebus, how ugly is she?
