wvParticipantPatriots’ video tactic for field goals was, and still is, legal…
…In the near-future, i believe the defense will be allowed to have two players armed with anti-field-goal guns. If the ball is ex-ploded the defense will get 2 points.

Troy Aikman says Norv Turner saved his career by changing the culture around him…“There’s a reason why Norv Turner was my presenter when I went into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Michael and Emmitt, they both credit Norv Turner for turning their careers around.”
Its interesting that Emmitt says Norv ‘simplified’ the system in Dallas.

From AP.CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) — The Trump administration has announced that it will impose travel bans on officials it claims are responsible for discrimination against whites and other minority groups in South Africa.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday he would revoke U.S. visas or reject visa applications from foreign nationals found to be responsible for, or complicit in, enacting or enforcing laws and policies that allow for uncompensated land seizures, race-based discrimination and the incitement of violence against minority ethnic and racial groups in South Africa.
“The United States will not allow such behavior to go unchecked,” Rubio said in a statement. “These actions directly undermine peace, economic stability, and the rule of law, and they are incompatible with the pillars of America’s foreign policy.”

vMacklemore has been dropped from the remainder of the US leg of Ed Sheeran’s Loop tour, after the American rapper drew headlines for saying “free Palestine” on stage at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
…
…In a lengthy Instagram post on Monday morning, Macklemore confirmed that Sheeran and his team had decided to remove him from the tour, but noted that he, Sheeran and Pink were not victims. “We have careers, money, opportunities, safety and audiences around the world,” he wrote. “Whatever consequences any of us face for what we say, we get to go home to our families.
“The victims are the Palestinian people. The men, women and children who have been killed, starved, displaced and forced to live through unimaginable violence,” he added, citing the more than 20,000 children killed in Gaza by the Israeli military since the 7 October 2023 terrorist attacks by Hamas.
Macklemore explained that the decision came after a week of “difficult conversations” with Sheeran, a friend of 13 years whom he considers a “brother”, though “as I told Ed multiple times on the phone, our friendship can’t change my responsibility to tell the truth about what happened.” According to Macklemore, Sheeran was under pressure from stadium owners rallied by Robert Kraft – the billionaire owner of the New England Patriots and their Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, where Sheeran was next slated to play – to drop Macklemore from the tour, lest the English singer be barred from their venues. “Ed was in a fucked up position,” the rapper wrote. “He knew it. His typical apolitical stance was being challenged in a way it had never been before.
“What I said at MetLife I have been saying on stages around the world for almost three years,” he added. “So why is it an issue now? Because now I’m sharing the stage with one of the biggest artists in the world, in some of the biggest stages in America.”
Macklemore ended his multi-page post by reiterating his call to “free Palestine”: “If those words cost me the stage, while turning the conversation back to Palestine, then it was the most successful tour I’ve ever been on.”
In a statement provided to NBC News, Kraft said the decision to bar Macklemore from Gillette Stadium, which is intended to be “a welcoming environment for all guests”, was made after the comments at the MetLife shows and “a broader history of rhetoric and imagery that we believe has been deeply offensive and hurtful to the Jewish community”.
“I would welcome the opportunity to sit down with Macklemore and discuss the facts, because ultimately our goal is the same – peace for all people, an end to suffering, and an end to all hate,” he added. He also blamed Hamas for actions that “have caused immeasurable suffering for Palestinians and Israelis alike”.
“Much of my time and attention for the last decade has been focused on the fight against antisemitism and hate of all kinds, and I feel a responsibility to stand up when I believe that line has been crossed,” he said. Kraft, who is Jewish, created the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism, now known as the Blue Square Alliance Against Hate, in 2019. He is a longtime supporter of the state of Israel as well as its ally in the White House, Donald Trump.
The North American leg of Sheeran’s tour will conclude in November at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, which earlier this year hosted two shows by Ye, the rapper formerly known as Kanye West, who has a history of antisemitic statements. Tour openers Lukas Graham and Aaron Rowe are set to take the stage as planned.
wvParticipantThe reason it was not evident in the pre-season is because the minute Garrett starting hurting, they kept him out of all scrimmages and practices. He was sidelined for a month.
This is not a team that’s reckless with issues of health and injury. Remember, they kept Donald out. So how is it they would be cautious with Donald but careless with Garrett? The obvious answer is that they were consistent–they did not recklessly expose Garrett out of medical stupidity, rather it really was the case that the only way to find out he couldn’t play was by playing him.
…
Well, I think it was ‘more’ reckless to let him play that game on a bad knee, than to take care of it with surgery a month ago.
I cant picture that kind of knee issue just ‘clearing up’ in the middle of the season. Get the surgery. Then play.

vwvParticipantSarah Barshop@sarahbarshop
Sean McVay said the thought was Myles Garrett’s injury. was “something that he would be able to work through.”“Obviously being out there and playing in a real game, you learn like, ‘Hey, maybe that’s not the case.’ So let’s change course with that.”
McVay on Myles Garrett’s injury: “Thought we would take an approach where he’d be feeling good enough to go contribute positive change and be the player that he’s capable of. That wasn’t the case. And so the next right thing for us is to be able to get this thing fixed.”
.That just seems a little weird to me. That they all waited until the first game to figure out Garrett couldnt play. Why wasn’t this evident in the practices with other teams?
Just seems to me this surgery should have taken place a month ago.

vwvParticipantGiants ‘identity’ is going to be toughness. They iz going to try to simply beat the living s*it out of the Rams.
We shall see what this ram team is all about Monday Night.

Jax Dart: “I just think that we have so much respect for Coach Harbs, and this team will do whatever he says… So, the identity of the team starts at the top, and it starts with how he’s conducted himself, with how he’s created a tough team. And we want to take that on our shoulders..”September 14, 2026 at 8:26 am in reply to: interviews & podcasts, 9/14 – ? … starting w/ McVay on 60 min… #166071wvParticipantI had not seen the ‘abs’ photo.
I’m trying to think of a top-coach who wasn’t kindof-an-asshole. Lombardi, Walsh, Landry, George Allen, Belichick, Harbaughs, Coughlin, Sirianni, Bruce Arians, Sean Payton…
Maybe…Marv Levy? Tony Dungy? Andy Reid? Mike Tomlin? I dunno.

vwvParticipantI watched a bit of the Giants last year, and i watched the highlights of their game against Dallas. They have definitely taken a step forward this year. It was startling how good they looked last night. Very hard-hitting team. Nasty front line. Jaxson Dart has oodles of talent mixed in with his MAGA-stupidity.
Scatt-a-boo is the weirdest, clunkiest, rolling ball-of-MAGA-butcher-knives I’ve seen since Mike Alstott or Larry Csonka. Their WRs looked excellent.
John-MAGA=Harbaugh has them playing fundamentally sound on defense.And the Rams, without Myles, are favored by 7.5 to 8.5 points for Monday Night’s game.
That confuses me. Baffles me.
Especially since, i hear the Rams will arrive at So-Fi only 24 hours before the game.
w
vwvParticipantCardinals still leading the Chargers in the 4th, 23 to 14. Jacoby having a big day so far.
Rams could be looking up at three NFC West teams.
w
vwvParticipant‘Expectations’ have certainly shifted among the media-riff-raff. Questions have gone from “will the rams go undefeated” to “will the rams make the playoffs.”
Giants
At Denver
At Philly
BillsI must say, given my rams-underdog-pathology, I am much more comfortable with these new expectations. I feel relief.
Now go out and scratch and claw and gut-out some wins. Then…we’ll see.
