GREAT podcast tonight. 

I KNEW Bene ate at La Vic. It's open after the bars close downtown and everyone in San Jose goes there. 

I never heard a definitive answer though. :(

Ask that man for a jersey for your boy here and I'll go to La Vic tomorrow and buy like 10 bottles of orange sauce and ship them to you.

Meant to put this here instead:

That computer test for the concussion protocol sounds like the same test that's used for soldiers before we go overseas. It establishes a baseline for your reaction time and quick memory tests. If a Traumatic Brain Injury event occurs then you take the test again to establish how you compare.

It's a basic test. Kind of interesting. Makes sense that they use it for the NFL.

I took a test at the VA for TBI... Holy poo it is tough. You have to do the same type of computer test and memory test. The test itself is about 4 hours or so. It will make your head hurt..... just taking the test.

 

The tests I've taken before every deployment weren't more than 30-45 minutes I'd say. I've never taken one that lasted hours. Perhaps the VA has a different test? The one that the active military gave me was pretty simple and straight forward. I think we had to take it again when we came back but that might've only been if something happened. I don't remember taking the test before 2008...so it might've come out around then (or at lest put into practice then). I've deployed 3 times since 2008 and I think the test has remained the same for each time.

The test must be after 2008, I got out in 2007. Never had the Take the Test. I think the test took me 4 Hours because I have a TBI lol, and kept messing up the test. I took the FACT Program at the VA for people with a Traumatic Brain Injury.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.

      Jones got projected as the next Eli because they share a similar goofball, on the spectrum energy.  That's my theory.

      I didn't think underrated was the wildest statement. The passing and offensive command he showed in week 18 against Atlanta was as good as any QB that has ever played for this franchise.  I mean THAT part is wild.  Which plays into the overrated part.  End of regulation I don't think he even hit 200 yards passing.  I mean he had a very efficient day vs a weak defense.   As good as we have ever seen in Carolina?
