Sticking it to the Eagles. Provisional 1st rounder almost assuredly will be a second now. Though it could easily go from a late first to an early second if the colts really suck.

Honestly, this idea actually seems a bit over the top.

I mean how is this going to influence a football player’s behavior? Are they going to treat their teammates and other players like they have cooties because they’re unvaccinated? It’s not like they’re going to run away from an unvaccainted opposing running back for fear of getting covid.

Seems that the goal is to shame the unvaccinated. I get shaming them but when the reasoning for a policy is, “Hey, it worked for the Nazis.”, it might not be ideal.

Yeah this was exactly what entered my mind when I read that tweet.

I’m all for shaming and Othering the unvaxxed. They can get vaxxed. Jews couldn’t stop being Jews.

The next step is to put bounties on unvaxxed players.

Tack on an extra 5 yards to any penalty made by an unvaxxed player.

Just mix a little mrna in with the toradol and they’ll all be vax’d in no time

Speaking of toradol, I went to high school with this guy.

“When I came around the guard, it’s looking like one of those plays a defensive end dreams about,” recalls Lonnie. “I grab the quarterback high, and I’m about to slam him to the ground when the other defensive end gets him by the waist. As he tackles the guy, his legs whip around and hit mine.”

The force demolished Lonnie’s left knee. Dislocated it, tore all four ligaments to shreds. His hamstring sheared off the bone behind his knee and rolled up into his butt. His quadricep ripped in two places, and his calf muscle exploded, balling up so tight down around his Achilles that doctors had to fish it back up with a hook.

“My lower leg was sticking out sideways, perpendicular to my femur,” says Lonnie. “I never doubted I’d play again, but I knew right then that I’d never get to rush the passer. In three seconds, I went from the happiest moment of my life to the saddest. From then on, I’d always be playing against the guy with my dream job.”

He truly was an athletic freak. I forgot about the horrific injury in college.

I bet Wentz is going to do all the research on how to heal his injury before making a decision on whether he should get treatment.

I’ve always hated the word “tolerance” in this context.

From what I’ve read in the Vegas thread, this is apt.

THAT’S SOCIALISM!!!

Chubb extension seems…ok?

Zimmer (thumb up)

pretty rare a 2nd contract for a RB pans out, but he’s not 30 when that ends

It’s roughly the same cost as 2x tagging him and he’s 28 at expiration, seems ok.

I think its for other people to know that you can’t hug the guy or shake their hand or be unmasked around them if you are going home to young kids or adults with health problems. Not specifically for shaming. That’s just a beneficial side effect.

So basically he wanted a prostate massage. I thought that was mostly a thing among gay men.

Wonder if there’s something DeShaun is hiding.
