FIFY. After all, it is Nola...

A man has to know his limitations...

"Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"

Tomato, mayo on white bread is a summer tradition around here. You must not be from around here. j/k

This is the way.

They never call, they never write…

Capitalist

I like butter. It adds a richness and depth to many sauces.

Channeling the Hurnster?!

Sadly, when last with the Panthers and at his previous weight, 'yes'.

No, just no. Horrible risk/reward until there is clarity on his legal status and resolution of civil suit.

This is the way. Camp cuts for depth, bottom of roster churn. Rare but sometimes a starter quality player gets cut from a team deep at a particular position. I'm sure Fitterer and Rhule know which teams have that dilemma at OL and FS and are watching.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner...

You're a cheerful fellow...

Oh, I am excited about Sam’s potential. I think he will surprise to the upside. I believe he is capable of becoming Jake 2.0, and that will be good enough for me when combined with the other roster moves, especially on defense.

I respectfully disagree, in part. Sean Ryan and Brady will spend 'quality time' with Sam, doing film study. Lots and lots of it. And then lots of repetition in training camp. You can beat muscle memory into most willing athletes who want to get better. Where the line is between coaching and 'between his ears' is too subjective. In the end, he has to mentally internalize the film study. I would say 70/30 on the ratio between coaching, film study, repetition and mental process/self awareness. Who can say for sure?

IMO, this is the strongest argument for leaving Moton at RT. In staffing, you only rarely take a high performing employee out of a well run business unit to fortify a struggling one. In theory or on paper, the move makes sense but actual results almost always disappoint and you end up with suboptimal performance in both business units. At least in business, this strategy fails more often than it succeeds.

IF... Disclosure: I voted Daley just need him to stay healthy for full season.

I was going to say, 'adult supervision' but I'll take 'competency', as well...

There's a new Sheriff in town...

"Don't ever do that again!"

Wish every team had a Tony Dungy type, to help with 'life coaching' and a Dave Ramsey type for basic money management. It's not sexy but if you cared about your players, you'd find a way to do it.

Pie for 'pish paw'...

Will be sailing Exumas this October and next May. Stop by and I'll buy you a Kalik.
