I think it is better to stay single than it is to get married and then get divorced. The problem with this is that there is a 50% chance that you will in fact get divorced. The odds on a divorce from your second marriage then skyrocket well beyond that 50%. What surprises many people is that most divorcees do NOT trade up. I also think that being in a marriage that is honest and 100% equal is better than being single for you entire life. Don't get me wrong. I got married at 28 and had some unforgettable, excellent nights when I was single. Still, great relationships are a wonderful thing. This is a good thread but I think that a divorce thread would be even more interesting, and of good use to those contemplating marriage. They might learn behaviors to both look for in a possible spouse and personal behavior to avoid. They would also undoubtably read a horror story or two, or dozens of them.

Jonathan Martin and Incognito Bullygate back in the news
Bill from NYC replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
I partially agree. Jumbo Elliot got into trouble when he was on the Jets. He and three other people destroyed a bar in Long Beach. https://nypost.com/1999/07/11/unnecessary-roughness-by-jets-trio/ Let's just say that I am also aware of a couple of lesser unreported incidents. That said, several years ago I sat with him at a coffee shop which he owned, and spoke with him for approx. 30 minutes. He was 100% normal. He had lost at least 50 pounds. He donated money to the volunteer firefighters and owned 2 businesses in the community. He told me about how it was to play against Bruce Smith, and that he had coached Jason Peters when he was a udfa. When I commented how strong Peters was, he implied that he was stronger lol. Maybe he was. I'm certainly not a doctor, but I suspect that being off the roids (and almost certainly booze as well) contributed to this drastic change of behavior. -
Jonathan Martin and Incognito Bullygate back in the news

I never believed that Martin was bullied. How many NFL left tackles are bullied? What I do believe is that Incognito is a thuggish, gigantic man with super strength who was roided out for many years. To this day I think that steroids are quite prevalent in the NFL. They are the elephant in the room that fans can't or won't see. Remember Jose Canseco anyone? In high school he was so shy that he barely spoke at all. Jose went from 195 lbs to 245 lbs and actually got faster. This once ever so shy person was then driving around well over 100 miles per hour and fooling around with Madonna (not a rarity for steroid users in those days lol). I think that Ruben Foster (for those who remember him) could have been an all time great linebacker, but off the field issues (and some injuries) screwed up his career. He was fast and extremely vicious, with super human strength. He was a predator on the field and a maniac off of it. Was he on steroids? All we can do is guess. I am not on an anti-steroid crusade. I wish the players well but I have no, nor do I want any control of what these players do to their bodies. The NFL is entertainment to me. I do however believe that untraceable steroid usage is still widespread in the NFL. Do I have any evidence to present? Of course not. That said, some of these off field incidents do raise a few eyebrows, to say the least. Of course, this is jmo. -
See the smile awaitin' in the kitchen Food cookin' and the plates for two Feel the arms that reach out to hold me In the evening, when the day is through Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind Summer breeze makes me feel fine Blowin' through the jasmine in my mind

Slick Rick about to be Bills most valuable non player person.
Bill from NYC replied to Lost's topic in The Stadium Wall
Wow!!! One can see from hundreds of miles away what a good person that gentleman is. -
So meet me tonight, just where the light shines, from a window, and, as I take your hand, say that you'll be mine tonight. Oh, I would be so glad just to have a love like that, Oh, I would be true and I'd give my life for you.
