That was unfortunate

On the flight, I think it makes a big difference if you’re sitting in traditionally, cramped, economy, class or in the upgraded business and first class seating the team will be on for their charter plane. Room to move around and stretch. Periodically is big.

If I understood him correctly, he essentially said he wouldn’t come back unless he could play like he used to play.

If he’s even close to his old self, oh my.

Only one step, maybe.

Half a step, if he could handle that mentally, I believe so. That still probably puts him in the top 10% of DTs in the league.

My condolences to you and your family.

This is what I call going all in.

And

They picked for the future.

I am reminded of the movie draft day, “ what do you think, is this a team you can coach?”

🙂

They traded the two comp picks at the end of the draft to move up in the sixth round to get the wide receiver they wanted.

Given two wide receivers were picked before their old position, itmay have been the only way they could get the one they wanted.

Yes, I remember correctly, back in the day when all of us were young men, it was normal for a quarterback to be drafted and sit for 3 to 5 years before they became a starter.

Chuck Norris never did push-ups, he did earth downs.

Chuck Norris didn’t go to heaven, heaven went to Chuck Norris.

There are 6 million 6 hundred and 6 reasons why the USA has become the Ecocidal Death Machine it has become. Big reasons and medium reasons and small reasons. One of the Big-Reasons is the evolution of corporate-capitalist-propaganda in all its pervasive forms, whether reflected in movies, ‘education,’ books, blogs, institutions, tv-shows, advertisements, whatever.

I discovered one of those examples of propaganda the other day when i watched a show I didnt know much about: Landman. With Billy-Bob Thornton. I watched it, because I liked Billy-Bob Thornton. I dont like him anymore. I dont like Demi Moore anymore either. She’s in it. I dont like anyone who would be in this thing.

If you’ve never heard of it, its a popular series about the Oil Bizness. Set in Texas. Jerry Jones even did a scene in it. The show has speech after speech after speech explaining how their is no alternative to the oil-based economy, and how alternative energies are supported by Russia, and the Oil Industry is what makes America great, and the big Oil Billionaires are very concerned about their workers, and climate change is a hoax, and fracking is actually good, and — get this — the Oil Industry is actually battling the Cartels and terrorists and making America safe for democracy.

I swear, this show is just like watching Fox News. Even the actresses on the show look like Fox News hosts.

The acting is good, the dialogue is snappy, its very slick and entertaining.

We are all doomed. And thats a good thing.

I agree with much of that about the show but would quibble in a few areas.

The billionaires in the show do not come across as caring about their employees. They care about their money and making more.

The oil industry is not fighting the cartels, at least in the first season, it’s all about turning a blind eye so each can do their own business until their is a falling out and even then, a desire to go back to live and let live.

There is a small nod to eventually needing to come up with something else with a giant dose of until then this is the bull we have to ride.

People who like this show, imo, are also likely to like Yellowstone and Tulsa king.

On the road in freezing conditions against a good team.

Super excited, they won!

Indiana’s team has a lot of fourth and fifth year seniors. They’re older and more experienced than their opposition and have been all year. I’ll take Indiana and I think they win by two scores.

I hope he is fully healthy for the playoffs.

That ending sucked.

I’m also sad.

I hope they learn from their collapse in all three areas in the fourth quarter.

Surprised they didn’t bring more pressure on the two point conversion.

Ugh

Well, darn
