Dude. You're arguing against your own proposed solutions, and seriously making my brain hurt with your nonsense.

Dude. I'm in no way talking about replacing the helmet with a piece of cloth. I'm talking about removing the incentive to use your head as a weapon. Basically by using identical helmets to the one currently in use only covering the outside in foam or kevlar. In no way does a helmet that's soft on the outside

No, it's not. I'm not saying take the helmets off. I'm saying make the helmets soft. Either by using kevlar instead of a plastic shell or by covering the plastic shell with some sort of absorbent foam. Football would in no way be impacted OTHER than removing the incentive for players to use their heads as

How pleasant of you. Everyone knows people pay taxes. But practice squad guys don't have publicists, brah.

Wouldn't the best case scenario for said 3.5 year career to have been drafted and to have seen millions in guaranteed money? I'm no more assuming the best-case scenario than you are assuming the worst case scenario.

Where, oh where did I say that helmets should be removed? I said that helmets should be soft rather than hard plastic shells. You're arguing against something that doesn't even exist.

Oh no doubt about that. It's been shown time and time again how much athletes have in common with lottery winners.

Dude. Have you ever played sports before? Look around the NFL. None of those guys are wearing leg pads, mouth pieces, or snapping their chin straps despite the demonstrable safety benefits of each and every one of those pieces of equipment.

Isn't the solution soft helmets? If we stop making the helmets into weapons, players will stop using them as such.

The 2012 league minimum for rookies is $390k. It goes up incrementally from there. If you're playing the league average of 3.5 years, you'd be earning the league minimum of $700k by your 4th season. Thus we're talking about roughly $2M in earnings over 4 years. Hardly the "low 6 figures", and if you're even

That's an even worse explanation, because our computing has revolutionized in 50 years, to the point from vacuum tubes to microchips, so how could it have all been reverse engineered from the same source?

The score was 6-3. It's hard to say that one play effectively determined the outcome of the game. If it was 1-0 or something, sure, but Atlanta's tee ball defense is more to blame than shitty umpiring.

+1. So good.

+1!

Can we talk about how if it was Troy Aikman's (now ex) wife, she is in her mid-40's and so wouldn't have had a cellphone in college?

Mitt?

Really? Something's wrong with a teacher who bangs one of her students? What was your first clue?

"Excuse laden" would suggest that there was, in fact, more than one excuse. Given that there were a grand total of zero, I think my original conclusion as to your lack of intellectual heft would seem to be on point.
