You are missing two key points: 1. There’s no goalkeeper protecting the rim. Assuming you watched the highlight video — the players spin and bounce the ball off the ground not for fun and because it looks awesome, but because goalkeepers are really good at hurling their bodies into the path of those 80mph balls you…
What are the odds he takes a shortcut and becomes a policeman?
I can only imagine the outcry when some highly drafted QB suffers a career ending injury before even playing a real down. You would also need to figure out a way to guarantee salaries and I don;t know that the league would go for that in the minors if they won’t for stars.
Another bonus we didn’t consider: Coach development. NFL still getting heat for its lack of development of black/minority coaches and executives. NBA swears the D-League/Summer league is a pipeline that sort of thing, NFL Spring League could help put a small dent in that convo, too. Also Becky Hammon coached Summer…
The NFL won’t do a minor league because it is far more profitable for the players to get injured playing in the NFL and the next man up approach than to have someone get injured in minor league and never play for the team. While it makes sense, the NFL knows that when a 53 man roster is plagued by injuries, it is FAR…
I think it’s just because NBC is so used to hearing the word “ratings” along with the phrase “coming in last.”
This is known as the “Dad’s Paradox:” Without replay, a dad will complain that the refs never make the right call, but with replay a dad will complain that getting the call right doesn’t matter, and it’s better to just move the game along. It has baffled physicists for millenia.
I wasn’t sure either. I had to look it up:
Starting it off early this year.
I, for one, am okay with a candidate not engaging in a Border War.
This has gotta be tough for Yankees fans. I mean, first the Cowboys and Lakers, now this?
Worth it.
I would warn the NFL of a potential suit, but after looking at that picture, Pellman clearly has no idea how to put a decent one together.
Even worse, the contract is denominated in British Pounds.
“We can’t go to North Carolina. They’re socially backwards and perverted for their stance on what goes on in the bathroom. Let’s go the Penn State.”
Not sure if terrible misspelling, or terrible pun...
This story would be so much better if he was accused of watching pornography and servicing himself but NO like a true Tesla geek he was watching Harry Potter for the 187th time.
It’s like that Gwyneth Paltrow movie, Sliding Balls.
Sorry. I disagree. Elon has great ideas, and maybe he’s intelligent, but for all those “smarts” he still hasn’t figured out how to run a business. His ideas seem more about his ego and showing people he’s smart than making money. Tesla? Let’s take a Lotus body, bridge a bunch of batteries together, cram them in the…
How long until Elon is jarring his urine, and wearing tissue boxes on his feet?
