I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just some QB that I used to know

Don't properly inflated balls like this bend pretty far on impact though? Seems like a softish k-ball would do this naturally like golf balls do

Yeah, look up gifs of something like a golf ball being hit by a club in super slow motion. They deform a ridiculous amount, and a football is way softer than a golf ball. That deformation is what gives the ability to drive the ball so far, and why when its cold its a lot harder to kick the same distance as when its warm, the coefficient drops significantly.

I'd ask how many Vikings offensive starters still have functioning legs left, but Long was already a mid-season acquisition. Hope is a lie, hail Satan.

If you want more Miami castoffs I don't think Dallas Thomas has signed anywhere yet...

Supposedly a seizure.

If it is I just hope its secondary to metabolic derangement caused by dehydration. He had a tumor as a kid, but it was benign. Still, that and playing football already make him prone to seizures. Hopefully his workup comes back with a comfortable answer.

Didn't Witten have something like this that could have killed him a couple of years ago and he refused to sit too?

Romo had a collapsed lung from a broken rib. If he played and got hit it could have made it worse.
