Your last point is clearly false. A player producing stats is not the same as being equal to someone that is elite at their position. In the game of football, only 11 people are allowed on the field at a time, so the guy that can do a tiny bit more is worth much more to a team that wants to beat the team across from…

I heard from all my coworkers about how impossible it was in their stores/territories which were well run before the recession. I got lucky that I wound up in places that were so poorly run before I arrived that I made my numbers. Thank god for bad predecessors!!!

So your argument is that teams should be able to grind a limited number of guys down far more than others with no compensation for the damage to their bodies and brains? Good argument. 

This is the real solution. I played enough football that I can’t get over it. Every fall it sucks me back in, and I enjoy mostly in secret like a junky because I’ll be goddamned if my son ever plays this fucking game.

Then the Brown family can have 53 guys on rookie deals or minimum contracts. The cap sets a floor on spending too, without which scumbag owners would spend 40% of the current cap and wallow in league profits with their perpetual 3-13 team. 

Name that other position that gets gang tackled 300 times a year. Is the corner taking a pounding 30+ times (carries, catches, blocks)? How about the receivers? Don’t those top guys make as much or more than runners? Yes, they do.

See Steelers, Pittsburgh. 

Zeke is worth more of $14 million a year than Dak is of $28 million (or whatever stupid number Jones will ultimately give that guy), so the salary cap is functioning properly if it prevents one team from acquiring and keeping an All-Pro roster. The Cowboys can pay Zeke and Dak, but maybe they lose defensive stars or…

I just I’d question that call based on the fact that the team went 12-4 (best record in the league last season) with Gordon and has gone 2-2 this season without Gordon playing. Obviously many things go into a team winning or losing, but we do to get to see last year’s team without Gordon or the first four games this…

From 2005 to 2012 I worked for two of the 100 largest companies in the country. During the recession, both demanded increased year over year sales from their foot soldiers despite the obvious lack of increased spending by consumers, many of whom were being crushed by falling home values in most of the country and/or…

It was the office supply war: Seattle Highlighters vs LA Whiteout!

“I want people to hate the Miami Heat”

Maybe they could start by going for it on 4th down regularly instead of punting from the opposition 43 or trotting out the field goal unit at the 2. 

People keep saying it’s Dabo time. 

Just like how Steinbeck’s The Pearl didn’t end.

That’s almost as bad as me laughing at the idiot that drafted the Bills defense only to realize I’d missed my last pick and now had the Bills defense. 

Hanoi? Pope Thrower will be appointed ambassador to the Vatican when I’m elected President of these United States!!!

Has no one said anything before? I mean I’m not sure when it would come up that isn’t a nonsequitor except this comment here

Damn you! I spat water on my phone because of you. 

Wait! A player stuck his finger into Burfict’s butthole?!? Was he trying to stay Incognito?
