You know damn well she doesn't have any pubic hair.

I sent in a complaint to the FCC regarding Pete Carroll's middle finger to basic human intelligence. Any reason why that is not on the list, Barry?

A few thoughts:

Far more likely to see football players turning to baseball and basketball.

And they replied: "Do what again?"

Soldiers field?

"We shouldn't worry about brain injuries because the NFL might shut down and then I'd have to go get a real job" - Mike Florio

Paraphrasing: people dying in common jobs is just par for the course. Oh well, shit happens.

I still don't understand his reply to Ufford. Wtf does that even mean?

I think you are missing the point which is that NFL salaries do not account for future medical expenses from playing football. If you are a defense contractor and you go to Iraq...you get "hazard" pay because its dangerous. If you play in the NFL, you get paid without any hazard pay. If salaries accounted for…

I think his issue isn't with your main point: 98% of why salaries are so high is because they have incredible skills that people are willing to pay to watch. But if you're arguing that pay is 0% of why people join the military, then you're mistaken. There'd be a lot more people retiring like Borland if the money…

On the whole, this is an excellent post. Deadspin has done great work on the head-injury issue, and I applaud its rejection of the pussification argument others (like Florio) present. But one part of this post is just off.

I grew up loving the NFL, and bonding with my father at Soldiers Field in Chicago. I'm (perhaps sadly) at my happiest when watching a good football game.

*player watches decades of other players literally killing themselves and each other for a game* I don't want to kill myself. I think I'm going to retire.

Including Chris Borland, which is why he's retiring now and not asking his wife who she's talking to in 20 years.

It's just kind of... Snyder. It's bizarre. I never understood it until moving to D.C. several years ago, and having watched this shit-show up close as an uninterested observer (I'm still loyal to the Broncos)... I would say that's ALL he cares about is what other people think. He doesn't really want to win football…

Almost like he gave the guy a job, then took it back. Like some kind of....Giving TakeBacker

When did we stop saying opinion?

It's impossible to cover this team without, at least occasionally, being critical of Snyder. When an organization fails as consistently as this one does, occasionally you have to go to criticize the top guy. Sally Jenkins...Boswell....Steinberg...all of those guys are far more vicious in their criticism of Snyder…
