They wasted Luanne on Lucky!

She could of have been so much more but the writers just didn't care!
That's just ridiculous and absurd Spoeank.

We're never making it to week 17.

How is it the NFL's fault the test was a false positive?

And while you have a positive test, yes you should absolutely avoid contacting other people and your kids should 100% have been kicked out of a park, are you insane?

It sounds like they were told it was a false positive well before it was announced and people treated them like they'd been exposed. More a problem with the NFL announcing peoples medical status.

I'm not very tapped into sports media lately but I feel like no one is really talking about COVID's potential effect on linemen. It's well documented that obesity is a very serious comorbidity for this virus, and while linemen may be extremely athletic many of them are also very fat. I'm surprised we haven't seen more linemen opt out thus far.

The other thing, aside from the virus effect on the heart and lungs, many people who get it undergo rather dramatic weight loss. I can't help but think this would have a bigger effect on linemen who have to eat far above and beyond their normal appetites to maintain weight. Will they be able to do that while sick with the virus?

Just none of the stuff I usually read have brought that up at all, even when they do acknowledge the dangers of opening the season and the likelihood of many players getting it even with the precautions that are being taken.

e: fixed a couple phone typos

A good majority of the opt-outs are offensive linemen if I'm not mistaken

I know a 300 lb NFL lineman is going to be healthier than a 300 lb goon, but it still has to be a risk factor being so big, and playing in such close contact with so many players. You figure if anyone playing in the box has COVID, everyone in the box is getting infected.

Going by https://www.rotoworld.com/article/numbers/nfl-opt-out-tracker and narrowing it to Big Men (OL and DL) there's 24 of 45 would fall into the Be Fat category.

300lb NFL players traditionally have really good cardio. So that’s something.

He's almost certainly a top 10 pick in the next draft, joining two other probable first round picks in Rashod Bateman and Caleb Farley

Penei Sewell seems to be supporting the Pac-12 demands, so you kinda wonder if he might be inclined to do the same.

Find someone who values you like Rick Spielman values 7th round picks.



I would imagine that most medical concerns with Covid and weight would be minimized for lineman?

I would have to ask swickles to comment, but I'm guessing a professional lineman is in much better shape than pretty much anyone who posts here with them being professional athletes.

I wouldn't be surprised to see them lose 30-40 lbs id they are bed ridden though and can't keep up their caloric intake.

I'm guessing Laquon Treadwell is available.

He's a good player, it's just he's got Josh Gordon level substance abuse issues that ruined his career.
