Football is a meaningless game played between sweaty gargantuan millionaires. The results of the game have no impact on anyone’s insignificant, meaningless life. The results of this NFL game, or any sports event ever, has no impact on the greater good of humanity. The results are largely forgotten over time, and by the time everyone who watched this game is dead 100 years from now, no one will remember a single player who played in the NFL in 2017. Go do something good for your life before you die of heart disease. This sh!t doesn’t matter.

On the black cat curse, that idea possibly comes from pagan beliefs in the middle ages as cats, specifically black ones, were viewed by certain pagan belief systems to be good luck. During the Christianization of Europe (particularly Scandinavia and Ireland), goddesses like Freya and their symbols (cats) were demonized to make Christians more fearful of the pagans, which effected their trading with the rest of the world resulting in resistant pagans converting to Christianity.

 

I'm no scholar on this, but it makes sense in my head. We're not cursed. We just have an owner who won't let go of the old school football thought and coaches who don't understand adjustments and utilizing talent properly.

      An Explication of the Offense

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Good write up OP..... I may be the outlier here but I like our WR sans XL. Metchie is sneaky good and just like Dowdle last year he WILL BE the biggest under the radar singing of this year FA moves. I am warming up to the idea of Sadiq at 19 over defense. I'm just ready for every BY excuse to be gone, he doesn't have this or that. No he just sucks and we need to move on. Honestly I've said it before but this team has been depleted of so much talent over the years we really could go BPA and be fine. In DM I trust..........for now

      He's not Cam brother. Disrespectful to Cam at this point to keep mentioning them together. That's just my opinion. We all agree we need the young guys to step up. They have to varying degrees. But they're still learning. Especially the rookies. Guys like Miller and Moose need to take another step and we hope they will get there. Both need to add some bulk in the offseason. Kalk too. We can give them a little grace though. We extended the same courtesy to LaMelo in his earlier years. Many excuses were afforded to him. I agree completely that we need to see both offensive evolution and development under Lee. I feel like the team in some aspects has taken a step back at times under his watch. That can't continue. I hope it all comes together. We'll see. But that clock is ticking and there should be NO excuses after this upcoming season. No more embarrassment please.
