This was the first game I was able to convince my wife to actually watch. Rodney was so pedestrian in the first half and I just felt her slipping away and that she was never going to get invested. Jake came in the the 2nd half and the energy immediately changed and when Rickey pulled this down it was done. She was hooked. That season's relentless cliffhangers just cemented her fandom. She hasnt missed more than a dozen games since.

Ill admit that Im a hopeless optimist every year about this time - it makes preseason so much more fun. That said I really think BY9 shows us that x factor that we all expect a #1 to have. It took longer than anyone hoped for him to find his stride but Im hanging my hat on that right now.

expect something like this after every division loss

LOL just found this exact gif for the other thread

leave our mark

about that nothing wrong with Keep Pounding

Wolverine didnt do it

The blacks have been ripped up in favor of blue. Guys - Its a process

@Zaximus you made me think that even if my heart was willing, I just dont think the body is able anymore. I hope the gallbladder surgery went well and you are recovering but it just reminded me that if it wasnt my back it would be my knees that would keep me from it. One look at a mosh pit IRL might well cause my body to just surrender and collapse out of self defense

BY9 is having this moment

Hope he has a successful run with them.

Fully guaranteed contracts for rooks outside of the top 10 or so is ridiculous and even that is reaching.

Yeah I wont often comment on a coddled generation and participation trophies but this sort of begs for it. Also how did an athlete achieve at that level without getting a thicker skin?

what an amazingly informative set of posts

I never disliked the Steelers enough to wish Rogers on them. What is it with GB QBs who just refuse to go away?

Oh most def

Hate on Saints football all you want But NOLA is a genuinely unique gem of a city and like nothing else in the US. Yeah they have problems but who doesnt?

I know there is this ideal out there of how the next Mahomes, Rogers, Allen will manifest. But Ill never forget how Jake just blew the scene up in '03 Lets let the dude cook this season and quit trying to make him fit someone else's trajectory. By week 5 we will all know if he has it or if he is just another Leaf.

What channel do they come on? Is it on dish?

This is the Joe Bonamassa I cant get enough of

I totally put this on Lowe's Hardware stores as every time that Ive been there in the last 3 months this is on Got me in a Doobie Bros kinda mood Yacht Rock boys!

The changes to onside kicks were ridiculous and ruined a significant part of the game It was already a high risk low reward play. Why change it?

Changes are coming! Changes are here! but Im not going to tell you what they are. Click this link to find out . Its safe... I promise...

Good If you want a home playoff game-win your division
