    There is also legal battles happening with NIL in High School, as many stars allow it. The ramifications that high schools become professional paid athletes will change the entrance path for college athletes.

     

    It's not uncommon around my area for the catholic high schools to recruit certain student athletes. And there's always rumors of parents renting apartments in certain school districts, so their child can go to a high school and get more playing time, than the one they were in before.

    Can a 50 year old dude just go back to college and wrestle?  Truly I don't know lol. Basically for me this brings up questions I'm never knew I had. 

     

    Yes, as long as they have not used their eligibility. And they can go to different divisions to get more years. Division 1 years do not count if they were to drop down to a division 2 or 3 school.

    Faulty landing gear appears to be the primary factor that caused a Delta Air Lines regional jet to flip over on the runway at Toronto's Lester B. Pearson International Airport last month. According to a preliminary report released by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada on Thursday, the jet was performing a routine landing when its right main landing gear collapsed after making contact with the runway.

    Dome stadiums are the worst.  I have no idea why everyone loves them so much.  

     

    and the teams with domes never open the roofs like they say they will.  

     

    The first game of the Toronto series was a pre-season game against the Steelers. Driving in, you could see the roof was open before the game, because it was a great summer afternoon, sunny and warm.  At some point before the game started it was decided to close the roof.  Not sure why, because there was no weather issues, like rain, coming in.

  4. Former NFL Pro Bowler Marcellus Wiley accused of raping two women at Columbia University

    Former NFL Pro Bowler Marcellus Wiley is facing new allegations that he raped two women while attending Columbia University in the 1990s. The two accusers filed lawsuits last week claiming Wiley attacked them in separate incidents in his dorm room in 1994 when he was a star two-way player for the Columbia Lions, playing both running back and defensive end. Wiley, 50, had already faced assault allegations from other female students.

  5. I have not listened to any, but my wife is a fan of the TV show based ones, where an actor or two that were on a series, will talk about the show, episode by episode, giving behind the scenes type info, among other things.

    Lol. I just read an article on TWSN titled "New York Jets Signing Stephon Diggs." From the headline it sounded like fact and I came here because normally someone posts on TSW before I see it elsewhere. Not seeing it mentioned, I went back and actually read the article. It was total conjecture and was just saying it would be a great move.

     

    I've seen a number of those "articles" lately.  Usually, ace reporter no name from obscure website/news agency has proposed that team pursue free agent/trade for player to help bolster their defense/offense is the standard layout.

    Those crazy Tennessean's. Only surprise here is that the teen wasn't his son. My niece is a public defender in Tennessee. One of her first cases several years ago was a triple murder when a guy came home early to find his wife in bed with twin sisters. He grabbed his gun and shot all 3. I mean, who the hell goes for their gun instead of their camera?

     

    Maybe he asked to join, and they refused.

    Every time I open page 2 of this topic my browser completely locks up and I have to force a close on it using Task Manager... is anybody else experiencing this? It's not my computer for sure as I'm having the same issue on my wife's computer too. To be clear... this is only happening on page 2 of this topic... nowhere else.

    Good thought. There is what looks like maybe a video from ABC7NY that doesn’t fully appear to me. Looks like something is up with that. 

     

    I had a link/video from TikTok that was auto playing, maybe that is why.  I went back and changed it to a link only, so give it another try.

    I got Covid before it was even officially here. On 12/19/19 we drove for 8 hours down to Florida with a young lady who coughed the whole time. She had just returned from NYC. By Christmas Day I was so sick the wife put me in the back seat and drove 8 hours back to Atlanta. I coughed into February. 

     

    I also believe I had it early.  Some point between Thanksgiving and Christmas 2019, I had what I can only describe as a very bad cold or flu.  Went to the doctor and they ran some tests, but all they could tell me that it was something viral and to just let it run its course.  Took about 2-3 weeks to get over it.

    I worked FT in the office for that whole experience as I was deemed essential (only time in my life lol).  So I had the letter in the car to give to the cops but never was stopped.  We had tickets for the end of the month Niagara Falls Ontario to see Kathleen Madigan  at the casino by the Hilton. Ticket master gave me a full refund no questions asked but the Hilton was kinda  jerks and i was like  i can't go be there if I wanted to the ***** border is closed.  smh

     

    I had a bunch of concert tickets, back when you could still get paper tickets, that had been cancelled.  A few weeks into it, I posted a picture on FB of the ones that had been cancelled and asked if anyone wanted to buy them.  One of my FB friends thought I was serious and asked how much I was asking for them.

    Except that it was Ice Cube and NWA that sang that song, not Ice T.

    He's thinking of Ice-T's hardcore band Body Count and their song "Cop Killer." 

     

    Low is right, I keep confusing Ice Cube and Ice T, and Cop Killer and F The Police.

    wait, will smith, the rapper? He’s an actor also? 

     

    Yea, good luck if he makes it.  You know what would be hilarious? If Ice T were to become an actor and play a cop on TV, after having the song "Cop Killer" be so popular.
