Hat tip (and well wishes) to Greg Olsen


Carl Spackler

Recommended Posts

Mr. Reliable played his ass off today.

He broke two tackles and carried a defender for a first down we absolutely wouldn’t have otherwise gotten. On a third and 17 he catches a 10-yard pass and does everything he can, including taking a hit to the head from a piece of poo Redskins player, in his all-out effort to get a first.

1) I hope Greg is OK. 
2) I hope he doesn’t go out like this. 
3) In the event that’s it, damn man. Thank you for everything.

I would add this in the same vein...

I know we complain about Marty stuffing the IR, but if he were to put Olsen on injured reserve tomorrow I'd have no issue with it.

Just b/c Hurney actually puts a guy that should go on IR on IR, even I won't call that stuffing the IR.  He's still gonna stuff it, but an injured player is an injured player.  I can call it straight when necessary.

I didn't see the game but saw "highlights" of it including this hit. Ryan Anderson definitely deserves to get suspended for a game or two for that intentional hit. Made me sick to see Olsen instantly fall the way he did. Greg's leadership over the years, even during losing seasons, has been tremendous and I'd really hate to see him go out this way.

I hate to see him go out like this too, but I think the "Hollywood ending" ship has sailed.

Sad to say that's true for any veteran who's not coming back next year, and I feel like there's a few of them.

Also I wish TD wound up with a better team in the AFC... Baltimore or Houston, KC, etc. (not the Pats). Too bad he won’t even get a shot at the playoffs this year, he deserves a ring as much as any active player who doesn’t have one, right up there with Fitzgerald.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
