Chinn!!!

I am watching the Charlotte Fox station

you can listen to the radio broadcast...see other thread on this

Ron Rivera named Sam Howell the Commanders’ starting quarterback Friday, officially giving him a title he’d all but received several months ago, when Washington appointed him the lead quarterback entering training camp. “He’s basically met the challenge we talked about, and that was seeing the growth and improvement from OTAs and minicamp … and then going into training camp and continuing to grow and show us what he’s capable of,” Rivera said before practice. “We’ve been very pleased with it, to the point where [Thursday] I decided to name him the starter.” Howell took almost all of the first-team reps in camp, a clear indicator of the lack of a true competition. He offered no reason to believe Brissett was the better option and showed continued improvement throughout the offseason program and training camp. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2023/08/18/sam-howell-commanders-starting-qb/

Get an extra large.

Come straight home then order pizza delivery.

And we are thankful for that.

Will the 4th string QB (don't remember his name) get in the game tonight?

The question always comes up. The game kicks off from MetLife Stadium at 7 p.m. on Queen City News, Charlotte’s FOX affiliate. Panthers legend Steve Smith Sr. will serve as the color analyst and be joined by play-by-play announcer Taylor Zarzour and sideline reporter Carla Gebhart. Friday’s game will also be televised on NFL Network outside the Charlotte region. The Panthers Radio Network will broadcast Friday’s game live on 99.7 FM The Fox in Charlotte. Other regional affiliates that will carry the game can be found at panthers.com/news/television_radio, and fans can also listen to the radio broadcast online at panthers.com/audio. Former Panthers players Jake Delhomme and Luke Kuechly will be on the radio call, along with Anish Shroff, Kristen Balboni, and Jim Szoke.

An opportunity for a couple of new guys to make a statement. I sure hope they do.

Wonder if there is a "coaches code" for that?

Knock on wood.....lol

The lawyer who drew it up knew it was improper. Ethics not in his DNA. As we know, people with money have lawyers that will do anything.

You threw up a softball.....could not help myself.

You said that is why we were criticizing him. That is the part you got wrong.

You still got it wrong. Not a problem with his opinion of 2 day joint practices. Problem is not honoring his commitment.

That whole thing is weird.

Could the Tuohys have adopted Oher once he turned 18? Yes. According to Tennessee law, “When petitioner seeks to adopt a person who is eighteen years of age or older, only the sworn, written consent of the person sought to be adopted shall be required and no order of reference or any home studies need be issued.” If the Tuohys would have adopted Oher, the family wouldn’t have had the legal rights to make decisions for him once he turned 18 since he would be a legal adult. That’s unlike a conservatorship where the conservator controls the financial decisions for the ward. https://theathletic.com/4778704/2023/08/15/michael-oher-conservatorship-blind-side/ Lewis[book author and Sean's high school classmate] said he believed the Tuohy family chose a conservatorship for Oher because the process was quicker than traditional adoption. And they were concerned about the NCAA investigating Oher’s choice to attend the University of Mississippi, where the Tuohys were boosters. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2023/08/16/michael-lewis-blind-side-lawsuit/

Not sure we can say at this point that they were transparent with him. And what is with the conservatorship (that he did not qualify for) when they could have done an adoption...even though it would have taken more time. If you truly wanted him to be a part of the family, some extra time should not matter. They chose the route where they got financial control....not a family member. What they did with that control is in question. I have to wonder if there was also a connection with them wanting him to go to Ole Miss?

Saleh was criticized for agreeing to 2 days of joint practices and then when the team got there he cancelled day 2 just because he did not like it. He should have been up front about his plans.
