No clue where to post some stuff not necessarily team related but could be? Feel free to delete if this belongs somewhere else.



Maxx and Parsons would be nasty. I probably wouldn’t pay the price though.

Thank God that experiment is over.

I think it's hilarious how it's worked out with the Ravens. They nixed the Crosby deal over a "failed physical" and went with the cheaper option in Hendrickson. Now look who's balling and who occupies a medical tent. :grin: Oh the irony. So then we take their center, and now they can hardly buy one. :loltears: Life is good. :pirateflag:

He made a ton of money, if he was 1/2 wise with investments he has several generations of wealth.

A former teammate of mine played 6-7 years in the NFL, mostly as a reserve and ST'er. He never cracked $1M in salary in any of his playing years, but invested a lot of it... started his own wealth management company after he retired/medical (due to back injury) and he's a millionaire now. He made more money AFTER his playing career was over.

You mean Hendrickson? I was on board with letting Maxx go for the draft capitol and jump starting the rebuild, but Im actually glad he's back and committed to the team now

That was a win/loss flag. Watch the Rams miss the playoffs by one game.
It was a bad call, but blowing a 16-0 lead and then allowing two 2 point conversions had way more to do with them losing that game than a single bad call.

The Tuck Game was a travesty, but it would've never had the opportunity to happen if Gruden hands the ball off to Garner instead of Whathisname. He could've also gone for it on 4th down with a short play action pass or roll out.

....I can't even watch that sh....., meaning the tuck game. ......I can still watch the IR, maybe since that at least seems to have less criminal intent.

Correct that they didn't stop the two point conversions but they did stop them right there with the interception. Should've been game over. Sure, anybody can say if a team would've done this or a team would've done that. But this isn't about what a team did, this is about what the refs did. The ref decided this game in my opinion.
