No “I” in team, but lots of I’s in Ezekiel Elliott.

Am I a bad Dad for teaching that one to my then 9 & 7 year old sons?

That is a sweet helicopter, it reminds me of the one from the Airwolf TV show!

Did you grow up in Chapel Hill? If not, there's one there too.

Look at the photo, lots of white players & coaches are standing in it, so I assume the whole team is on strike.

Most coaching contracts now include a clause that imposes a financial penalty if the coach leaves early for another job. Remember when Rich Rod left WVA for Michigan & he had to pay iirc ~$750k back to WVA in order to leave? So, coaches don’t get out scott-free for jumping ship these days either.

The really disgusting part of this is that Goodell suspended Hardy WITH PAY. Jerry Richardson had to pay this maniac to not play in 2014 & was not able to deliver his own punishment or cut Hardy,

I didn’t say football wasn’t dangerous, just that everyday activities are dangerous as well. I don’t understand the targeting of football on the site is all. 10 deaths in a year is way less than the accidental drownings that will occur to the same age cohort according to CDC data.

Over 1,000 kids between 15-24 will drown this year. So, football is still less lethal than swimming. Several Basketball players will die this year of heart conditions or head trauma. Life has risks & isn't fair. Football should not be outlawed, it's no worse than many other sports we play. It's just in the spotlight…

Big difference though, he hasn’t paid his friends take a murder rap for him.

These types of policies are quite common, but are only available to a few kids every year. I think Marcus Lattimore had a similar policy IRIC. Only “sure fire” first rounders can qualify and they are often funded by a loan which the NCAA carves out from its normal extra benefits policy since it has the ability to keep…

Still the wrong photo, that was clearly not a dumpster fire.

You are correct. For Southerners, barbecue refers to meat, and in NC it refers specifically to pulled or chopped pork. No one has a barbecue. We have cook outs at which anything could be served off the grill or pig-pickins at which a whole hog will have been cooked on a big grill and you will literally pick your meat…

Is Philly where corners go to die?

Can we start a Go Fund Me campaign to help the Cooke family get the team back?

Like we did to the Viet Cong & Taliban? You also forget that a large portion of the military would either refuse orders to shoot civilians or just join the rebellion as many did in 1860-61.
