Looks like I'm going down to Minneapolis for the Rams game in November, hopefully your President has not banned Canadians by then.

I'm tempted to surprise my Dad with a road trip from Montreal to Illinois for a Bears game. Our first live game was Chi@Pit 4 years ago, so it would be neat to try and get reasonably priced tickets for Pit@Chi. It's a shame Cutler got cut, Ben vs Jay would have high potential for a shootout (or turnover-fest).

Just when you thought you’ve probably heard it all, it’s gets even juicer.

On Friday, more details emerged surrounding the alleged suicide notes Aaron Hernandez left in the wake of him hanging himself to death on Wednesday.

The new piece of information comes via Daily Mail and they claim one of the three suicide notes that were found was allegedly written to Hernandez’s gay prison lover.

“The three handwritten notes discovered in the cell where Aaron Hernandez hanged himself were written to his fiancée, his daughter and his gay jailhouse lover.

Two of the notes were written to Shayanna Jenkins-Hernandez and the couple’s four-year-old daughter Avielle. Both were seen leaving her mother’s Connecticut home Thursday.

Sources close to the investigation tell DailyMail.com that the third letter was written to Hernandez’s gay prison lover, who has not been identified but was believed to be the last person Hernandez spoke to before he took his own life.

Now that man is currently under ‘eyeball to eyeball’ suicide watch.”

“DailyMail.com learned exclusively on Thursday that Hernandez was planning his suicide for weeks.

The former football star even gave away most of his personal belongings to fellow inmates and covered the floor of his cell in soap, according to a well-paced source. If he lost his nerve he wouldn’t be able to save himself as he would slip around and not be able to land firmly on his feet.”

One of the notes left by Hernandez was to his prison boyfriend, who is now on 24/7 suicide watch, multiple law enforcement sources confirm. Hernandez’s sexuality would, of course, not be relevant save for the fact that an intimate relationship he allegedly had with a male former high school classmate was at the center of the investigation into Lloyd’s murder.

Meh. Like I said, it's mostly the ruck marches that gently caress you up. Everything else is probably a hell of a lot better for you in the long run than NFL practices. But my main point was that jumping is no big deal at all as long as you bend your knees. His knees could be fine.

Yeah I was never airborne, but I have a permanently hosed knee from a week of national guard OCS at FLW.

The good news is that that got me to leave the fed tech program and the guard and double my salary in 2 years.

I hope coffee can get double his e4 salary on a practice squad.

You go to active duty OCS after that week. But I have genetically inferior knees to begin with and ended up with a meniscus that looked like crab meat hanging off the back of my knee.

It was basically a bunch of guard officers who had small penis syndrome and took it out on either fresh grads or old sergeants who just wanted more money.

But lol if you actually care about nasty girls vs active duty at this point in your life.
