  1. As in "the defenders are as or better conditioned than the Offense these days? In JB's day, nearly all the best athletes were on Offense.

    Now even the biggest baddest RBs can't survive...

     

    Draft/sign a variety pack and when initial deal is done, move on... NEVER FALL IN LOVE !

    Wednesday early dinner at 5 pm,  wife stopped by Jersey Mike's  and she had the portabello and swiss with a chocolate chip cookie 🍪. Delicious.

    I had my favorite the #56 Big Kahuna with a brownie it was good but next time I might get the portabello.

    The portabello is next on my list as well, but every time I have gone away from the #13, Mike's way, I have regretted it.

     

    Later ... omelette is ready to flip... :D

  3. Are we sure this was not a trade??? LMAO... OBJ for the breeze he left as he exited Berea.

     

    I've no issues with OBJ... I wish him well as he bounces around a couple times on his way to retirement (Gotta think he has cup of coffee in New England. NOLA would be another high. Both have staffs that can invent uses for him. And HCs with the cred to get his focus.) As for teamates both squads have vets to help usher him in. Bedsidesit hss been a long time since I have heard anything othr than he's a great teamamte from his teammates. I think all the back to NYG and messing with the FG net/cage while pouting.

     

    Another feather in our former football guy GM's hat... Zeitler's still playing well in friggin BLT... Teller better... at least per PFF.

    I posted this in another thread it's already costing lives.

    Bullfuck... Let's see the links you pull out yo ass...   Are they all to Memes?

     

    Howdy boys, I'm back and hyper and sleep, but about 3 hours a nite (could be the 'roids) and looking to rep a slightly different point of view thn you may get around here. I'll put as much effort into discussion as I see coming my way... although admittedly the start of this post might be a slightly running against that grain.

    One last thing... label me "a hater" and you go on Ignore... and years of Gipper trained me to never ever peek... although I do miss the ole Fart... as in from one OF to another.

    Really piss me off? I'll go speech to text... and not even a vintage Gumby decoder ring will save you...

    OMG... Tour has a smart phone? Yup... finally retired the ole LG flip and went 12 mini. Still learning it... I can hardly believe the power of it.

    You can pretty much scout all of Georgia's defense.

    Cool.. Loves me my D... but no 2ndary for lil 5.5 -40 me... ;) or was it 5.6? 😮

     

    What a collection of talent working together... and UGA is hellacool to boot. Although an Auburn Player had his junk attack ed once by him...

    And now one of the funniest cinema moments I know of... it's among a handful in Blake Edwards movies.

     

  6. Might wanna dbl-chk the link, Ag... it's taking me to:VA Dead end.pdf

    Also getting "Muted" on the MS Edge tab... which is strange... could be my ad settings or some such blocking your link, but usually

    VA Dead end.pdf

     

    And guys....  don't forget IAVA.org... very worthwhile group to lend support to, IMO.

     

    And bless the VA... it can be a bitch to get into (all thanks to a legacy of misaligned information systems), but once in their satisfaction ratings are very good...

    July 23, 2020 - Surgical care from Veterans Affairs health facilities is of equal or better quality as that delivered at other local, non-VA healthcare facilities, according to a study conducted by the White River Junction VA Medical Center in partnership with Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center.

    This data comes in the midst of a near six-year effort for the VA to revamp its public image, specifically alleviating concerns about patient access to care, long wait times, and clinical care quality and patient safety.

    This data also comes as the VA balances its community care benefit as a part of the MISSION Act. The community care access program, which went live in June 2019, aims to connect veterans facing extraordinary care access barriers within the VA with a civilian healthcare provider that can provide acces.

    On a one-to-five scale, VA medical centers received a 3.28 in overall ratings, compared to 3.38 ratings for non-VA facilities. VA medical centers received a 2.87 for a summary rating for the overall hospital stay, which was about on par with the 2.92 civilian hospitals received.Jul 23, 2020.

    Of course a close comp to our civilian a care level is like damning with faint praise... except my lil city.of ~85k has attracted... I still marvel at the med talent here.

    Um OK- Stefanski wins Coach of the Year... And since we're not 6-1 or 7-0, all of a sudden he sucks. Yeah right. Some folks are never going to be happy.

    Every single person that goes political in a football conversation  will be banned. No exceptions. We are are talking wide receivers here, how easy is that?

    I love banning people after losses. We built an entire political board for those that can't help themselves. 

    PLEASE show your true colors tonight, because I'm in a banning mood.

    Do it and whenever I am around you will never need beer money... for your personal consumption at any rate.

    Some assholes need to be shown the door. Prime example stands before you.

    'll tel ya.... there are some players there. And if the sale is deeply discounted I'd go after...

    D-side:

    • Zac Cunningham
    • Blacklock can anchor... 'bout all he can do, but...
    • Dez King was a CB of note in the draft.... big kid.
    • I liked Murray (SS) quit a bit. Ditto FS Jusrin Reid, but Safety helpisn't that high on our list... or is it, tia?
    • My Coug, Omenihu would add to our Edge depth/ rotation

    O:.friendly

    • I scouted Jimmy Morrisey (C, Pitt rookie) Plenty to like with room to grow/improve. Nice ZBS fit with some anchor (6'3, 303) and better fit to swing to OG than Harris has shown. Nice piece should Tretter want a bit too big of a cap bite to stick around.
    • Titus Howard... big, raw RT from a small school was an intriguing draft prospect. Not sure where his development is, but another, more cap friendly  Conklin alt would not suck.
