Those guys were no joke! My great grampa was a Frogman and always had the coolest stories. Was simultaneously one of the sweetest guys I ever knew, while being a strong batch of vinegar at the same time haha

I remember him tearing my dad a new one (in his 80s) after my dad brought him a fresh beer, something about- if you think I can't walk to the cooler to get my own, you'll be the one asking for help getting to the cooler 😆

Yeh the few stories often told by his brothers are cool and I remember trying to take him down as a teenager with my two teenage brothers... he had this little glint in eye, did some serpentine thing with his arms while stating its all in the leverage sons... Before we knew it myself and my middle brother were on our backs with my youngest in a full nelson... to the day I have no idea how I got there... he was in his 50s at that point

Just for Weo Man.

Oh and a great pre workout song while driving to gym at an ungodly hour in the morning to wake up.

 

Hopefully Milano or Poyer

listens to this song before the SB against Brady this year.  
 

Mama said knock you out!

 

makin his tears rain down like a monsoon...

If Nate freakin' Peterman still has a job then why can't Brees? 

[DCofNC]

He may want to come back, but who would actually want him?  He made Phil Rivers look like he had a rocket arm in his last year.

I think you mean Piña Coladaburg.

[L Ron Burgundy]

Unless his arm is feeling 10x better he needs to stay retired.   Watching him his final season was tough.  He seemed beat.

[Ethan in Cleveland]

His arm was shot. Unless he had an undisclosed jury that has healed there is no way he can play any longer.

Living in Tampa, for my sons and friends I had to come around on Brady as he was the driving force in Tampa becoming a winner again, but watching Milano even if he gets a 15 yrd penalty to just pancake Brady knocking him to the sideline.  No serious injuries or anything as I think that is wrong even for Brady, but ringing his bell for the second half of a  SB.

 

All kidding aside, Brees is not coming back.  This is nothing more than an analyst sees he’s not being taken back for NBC so he makes a wild accusation he’s coming back.  Then others pile on and say he should be released from New Orleans.  Like that would happen.

Because he has no arm strength, did you watch the guy throw a pass during his last season?  Even Peterman has a stronger arm, ya see,  age came to say hello, can’t do anything about that. He evidently didn’t keep up on his Tommy boy Peds regime, 😁👍

Because like the SF saint he is not willing to be #3 QB on roster being paid veteran minimum before released and signed on practice squad.

[ArtVandalay]

His arm strength is so weak at this point his hat landed short when he just tried to throw it in the ring. 

[RalphWilson'sNewWar]

The only 4-5 people that have to worry about Brees arm strength are Drew Brees and the Saints Representatives who would analyze it at the secret private workout.

 

if they sign him then you know there is plenty enough there to do the job.

[benderbender]

The counter argument to all arm strength arguments is every "sign Fitz" threads over the past 4 years

Jimmy Buffet does that?  He is only 75.  Maybe he is trying to keep his mind sharp. 

Amazing he has time to do that when practicing for upcoming concerts.

 

Jimbo considered coming back and playing for Baltimore but after exploration turned it down.

 

And I think it is a lot easier for QBs to come out of retirement now with less hitting of QB, less checking of supplements (and having a good agent who warns you about tests) and lots more money where backups are making more than some starters a few years earlier.

 

No word on Ryan Fitzpatrick?

Good chance Jimbo wouldn’t have passed the physical. His body was beat to hell and has concussion problems and admitted he lost interest in playing once Kent retired. He was a shell of his former self in 96. Now would he have been better than Testaverde ? Absolutely but at that time in his career, thats not saying much.

Trent Dilfer was not QB that year 1996 so what does have to do this?

 

Jimbo partly wanted to go there because Ted Marchibroda was head coach replacing Bilicheat.
