I saw it and was very impressed. XL will step up in the #2 role. He is perfect for that role. I am just so excited about our WR corps, I wake up in the middle of the night screaming, "Just throw the ball!!!" I had no idea my wife kept a bowling ball on her side of the bed for occasions such as that.

The shoes. Brand new white shoes. I am sure that went through his mind...Save the shoes or the four wheeler. Forget the friend--you need smarter friends.

The post says, "Didn't hesitate for a second .... " Yes he did. Did you see that he was wearing white shoes? I'd take it out of Mr. "I think my 4-wheeler is a jet ski"'s ass. It was probably XL's four-wheeler too.

I think--don't quote me--that based on what the guys I knew said (20+ years ago) it was that way. I was shooting basketball with a guy who played LB for the Chiefs and he told that he could dunk. I said, "If you could dunk, you would do it and not tell me about it." He said, "If I broke an ankle, it would violate my contract." (paraphrasing). Not sure what would happen if they found out he was playing but did not injure himself. And your opinion does matter, dammit all to Hell!!!

Interesting topic. I have had a few NFL friends and one told me that he could not work out or train unless the activities and facilities were approved. AI: In many NFL contracts, certain activities are restricted, and injuries sustained during those activities can lead to the voiding of contract guarantees or even the entire contract. These restrictions often include dangerous activities like skydiving, rock climbing, or even engaging in contact sports like boxing. Additionally, injuries sustained while working out at non-team facilities or during personal recreational activities may be classified as "non-football injuries," potentially impacting the player's compensation. Having said that, I question the reason the person filming this was not helping. Secondly, the decision to put it on social media makes it seem a bit prearranged. I do not think this would violate his contract, but I do think it is a bit stupid on his part in that he could be injured.

You mean like the sandwich or Superman?

You don't put the spoiler alert at the end, L-Town. Sheez. I will say that his belief in undersized NTs seems to be behind us. We got some beef at NT.

I think that Cam rubbed some refs the wrong way, but I had forgotten this stuff. Should not matter. I remember being furious with Rivera. I personally think Rivera was the most overrated coach in Panther history--he had Cam, weapons, a great defense--and never had back-to-back winning seasons. As a Coordinator in San Diego with Norv Turner (I believe) I recall a season when they were #1 on D and #1 on Offense and still struggled to make the playoffs.

If it ever got out that the outcomes of games were rigged, the NFL would lose fans by the millions. I do not see the risk being worth the reward. If it were rigged, a lot of people would know and someone would come forward with the proof. Just a conspiracy theory...However, that is not to say the refs don't have biases. If you felt robbed in Super Bowl 50, watch Remmers again. I could have sacked Cam against him with my spinning aerial swim move (copyrighted).

Very True--and I am a former HS English teacher.

Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages. Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams. Moore has a nice smile and can dance. He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players. I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent. Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man? Good luck with that. AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing. He can specialize in situational football. Coker? Just getting started. XL? Just getting started. Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow? I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn? Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game. I hear that Morgan loves him.

Yup. the best cultures are not a plan, but an atmosphere. Pay attention to Canales. So positive you think he is trying to sell you something. Eventually, it becomes contagious. He still makes the tough calls, but he is positive about it (Benching Bryce after 2 games). Canales and Morgan are controlling the culture by modeling attitudes and bringing in the right players. The trick is, let the players think it is their culture because they will protect it. Assimilation. Modeling. Empowerment.

Renfrow makes the team and becomes part of the rotation-- then he plays well. Gets NFL comeback player of the year. You all cheer. When I say, "I called this in June." You will say "Pic or it didn't happen." I will say, "you all disgust me because you are too mired in mediocrity to see my brilliance." You will give me a poo emoji because that is how you treat greatness. OK, I'm back.

If they do not trade back, he could be BPA and I heard they like him.

VJ should be the pick. And I just watched videos today and have not kept up, but I was very impressed with his motor and athleticism. Those kinds of players make teammates better, imo. I am enjoying reading your comments--I am so much an outsider on this one but I used to love them From Kelly Tripuka and Rambis to Grand Ma Ma and zo---then it is like we quit.
