“You don’t want to see anybody throwing up gang signs like he did in the Redskins game last year,” Crosson said.  “Those were neighborhood Crip gang signs and he flashed them during a game.  He may not be affiliated with the gang, but they don’t [ordinarily] take kindly to those not in the gang throwing up those gang signs.”

Well if that is the case, I don't have a problem with Jackson joining the Panthers. Someone needs to tell Jackson to stop acting like an idiot and to grow up. If you're not in a gang stop flashing gang signs and acting like a jacka@@.

Glad that you made those good choices. Your kids definitely have a role model to look up to. You can really speak to them about the importance of decisions that you make in your life.

Any idea what ever happened to your friend? Hopefully he was able to walk away with his life.

My wife saw on Facebook a few years ago he was murdered in his garage while shooting some pool with friends. Someone drove up into his driveway and the garage door was open and I guess they just started firing. They never caught the guys or even had a lead to my knowledge. I think he had a six year old and three year old daughter when he died, and I think his youngest daughter actually goes to school with my daughters younger half-sister (her moms other kid). Small world. fug all that nonsense.

I had a feeling that the story about him was going to end that way.  They just don't let people walk away from that life.

 

Glad to hear that you are a "boring family man" now....we can use more good men in that fraternity.

It's amazing what a couple hills can do dividing tri valley and the tri thuggery (Oak-SLZ-Hayward). Best thing my parents did was move me away from that ish and to Dublin when I was in High School.

Exactly! I split time between Fremont and Oakland and the best thing I ever did was move out to Livermore. Now I spend my weekends drinking craft beer with family and playing wii bowling on a huge projector screen in my garage with neighbors. I couldn't be any happier.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
