We could have not taken shot putter Larsen and gotten Brady in the 6th...

We normally have our ANZAC Memorial Day during the week, this year it’s a Wednesday and I usually take the days after as Annual Leave for a bit of a break: It’s often the few nice days before Winter arrives and the work slog starts after Spring, Summer good weather.

On a less serious note, my son’s kinder friends are Josh, Mason, Jackson and Luke. Wonder if he’ll choose a QB for the Bills from his mates names? ?

White weighs like 80kg and Gronk 120kg. That’s 150% bigger, a huge differential when hitting... (defenceless...) if Ted Washington got up some momentum and dove onto a prone Gronk, all whilst wearing a solid forearm guard... it’s a Merry Melodies cartoon right there.

I think an Australian Rules Football player was charged with assault for ‘king’ hitting another player. As punching is against the rules and unsportsmanlike, the guy coping the whack from behind had had enough and pressed charges. AFL is rife with these acts.

How much does Beane like golf?

Didn’t realise how much androgenic alopecia has affected him.

Bunch of flogs.

Mark Pike- he and Steve Tasker made me interested in Special Teams, year after year. Darrick Holmes had a good Rookie year. Ran hard. I think he had a big game v Cleveland on a Monday Nite- in the rain, against a familiar defensive co-ord. Browns has a complement of former Giant Lbers. Justin Armour had a big game. Didn’t he get a SB with Denver too. Did Bryce Fisher get a SB with Seattle?

It also looks like a Pats helmet is into the neutral zone, at least shading the tip of the ball. Which is offside and an offensive free play... /penalty.

I got a Ricky Williams draft shirt that year from a mate OS, we’d made all these jokes about Ditka’s drafting and it’s hung around. Trading up for John McCargo we’d call Ditka’ing it. And Marcel’s 6th Rd pick just became a 5th with Dareus on roster and Jags making Playoffs.

Ross Lyon did this in the Australian Football League. Had his team, St. Kilda in finals, top 4 finishes, a Grand Final (= Superbow). Went to the Board during his final year for contract extension talks & was told they’d review it at years end, when at years end his contract expired he signed with another club, took that club to a Grand Final as well. He’s still viewed as having walked out on his club, he viewed it as job security, family security in knowing what they would be up to.

Pool’s a little small, can only fit 1 helicopter, nothing bigger than Bell 429 type as well, only 1 Car, what happens if I need to drive twice in a day somewhere, use the same car...

Newcastle, Australia. If you ever get a chance it’s an amazing place. It also has one of the more attractive folk to nonatttactive folk ratios I’ve ever seen in a place. It was literally jaw dropping. Everyone is super fit, so it seemed.

Cardiac fine?

Phillip Morris may disagree, I know your point though.

Robert Smith is the example.

Ringed parrots much the same, squawkers too. There’s a definite pecking order and often they can be seen pairing up. Have 2 feeders, try to minimise the fighting! Come on, it’s free bird food, ease up. Pigeons sit back, wait ‘til they fight each other off. We back onto a park with a creek. I’ve got a chair out on the lawn and to down time sit out there, watch the birds, the old dogs will come and sit and the kids come and play around. My daughter calls it ‘day watching’, I’m sure at my most relaxed there. We took over a house that the ol’ folk couldn’t keep up the garden, including a pond. It was filthy. My son and I drained it and found 13 fish. All light bronze gold fish. And a sad Lilly. The water was mud soup. Cleaned it. Added clean water from rain water tank, set up an overflow so that the pond water watered the ferns. Well the fish got their colour back, the Lilly flowers and the ferns are going crazy.

Feed, I think I support the bird life of the area. We have Ringed parrots, King parrot, Cockatoos, galahs, occasional Kookaburra’s, Grey Butcher bird and we have 3 magpies that appear at breakfast, will sing for breakfast scraps too. Also the possum gets fruit scraps at nite. The Tawny Frogmouths don’t need feeding but sit in our tree. Our old dogs keep the cats away and I think the birds have figured the dogs are old.

1 week seems pretty light in lieu of CTE and concussion. Warren Sapp's dirty hit on Clifton in the 2000's maybe forgotten by this dirty shot. Sapp's was at least in bounds, in play at the time... just "dirty". Late, Intentional, High to the Head, opposition player White, defenseless... Gregg Williams been asked to comment yet? But, I'm wrong, it was completely Ok as he was being held during the route and he was upset that that wasn't flagged (as long as we're ignoring his push off as well...).

... awkward commentary as well... someone comes up to Gronk from behind pushing him... that was a ripper.

Was the player he drafted for the Bills be out of what the ‘consensus’ position would have been & wasn’t a ‘consensus’ need, wasn’t the BPA, considered a luxury as we already have 2 good RB’s, costing us draft picks in a trade up, had we stayed out he’d have likely been there. That he was a steal, only a year out from a devasrating injury, our doctors have cleared him. How divided the fan base was with the pick, that the pick was a need as we now just cut or released a quality starter in that position, but kept a player we were all in agreement should have been cut from a position there was a greater college prospect... We then drink the cool aide as the pick becomes a Bill. We defend it terrifically, saying you can’t really judge a draft until 3 years later. So after 3 years when we cut him we get annoyed as the internet allows us to remember, these draft pages never forget. Then we watch, in bewilderment as another team gets more value from him than we did or he goes to a team and is pivotal in there SB run. That said, this reminds me of my Colts fan reaction to the draft as well...

Maybe he can help out Rex’s show... with Rex’s brother...

Or there’s a hard dating lady over in the 9% and a couple mates who may be more than mates...
