Possibly my favorite picture from my stay in Europe.

As some of you may or may not know, I have been in Europe for the past 5+ weeks and will be returning back to the States on Saturday. This past weekend I went to Italy to watch a friend play in the Roller Hockey World Championships held in Roccaraso. Before her team arrived at the hotel we were staying at, I met a 20 year old camp counselor who spoke decent english. He was in charge of about 30 Italian boys from ages 10-14 and their soccer schedule.

These boys were staying at the same hotel as me, and I was invited to attend their scrimmages where numerous professional scouts including a guy from Juventus were present to take names and get children into their youth squads. The picture below is me front and center with these kids!

For one reason or another I really cherished my time with the kids, only one spoke English well enough that I could converse with him. But somehow, whether by playing foosball or ping pong at nights, this was a highlight of my 6 stay in Europe. Once the USA roller hockey team arrived, the boys would chant "USA! USA! USA!" every time they saw a team member. Just thought I would share.

It's really sad that you've been in Europe for 6 weeks and this is the best pic u could could come up with... I would do way better than that with one night in Europe.

And who the hell do u think you are with all those kids??

You ain't Cam!

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      By frankw · Posted

      The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep

      I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
