That's just ay/a. Which takes ints into account. A much better measurement would be where ints are thrown from and to. If you can pass all day between the 20s but throw ints in the red zone that should be treated worse than throwing ints from your 40 to the opposing 20 , especially on third down.

It worked for me too, but there's literally zero mention that the man was fired for repeatedly showing up to work drunk at USC.

Like, yeah, he's a coach who had some success. And alcoholism sucks. But...uh...that's something to worry about. Or if not worry about then at least mention.

e: Oh I missed that was a Falcons link. Let me revise that to say it's something to mention if you're anything other than the team who hired him.

One of the funniest posters in GIP.

Just not intentionally.
I'm cool with the Walsh signing. He's already won us a playoff game and it seems like his problems are purely mental. It wasn't long ago that he was one of the better young kickers in the league. He's got a big leg and kicks touchbacks more often than not. Hopefully he just had the yips and gets over it in Seattle.

I'll miss you, Hausch Money. I hope you either land somewhere you're happy, or have a cool new career lined up.

Oakley was a really popular player for the 90's Knicks, and NYK fans absolutely detest James Dolan's guts. He's the NBA's version of Dan Snyder, except more incompetent & sniveling.

It claims to be real. I'm pretty loath to believe its real because it keeps telling me exactly what I want to hear and that makes me suspicious.

The only thing I know of that suggests it might be legit is that account tweeted out something about trump planning on signing an anti-lgbt EO, and other news sources subsequently reported on that, but I never bothered to track down if they actually broke that news first (the order was later kiboshed because gays are probably the one minority trump doesn't have a problem with and that was right about the time he got mad people kept having him sign things without explaining what they were in small words). If they were actually the first to break it that suggests its legit, but my suspicion is that they weren't, or they broke it when it was rumored around DC but not firmly enough for people to report on it.

It's fake. There is no White House staff that stays on when the administration changes that would even entertain the idea of creating such a highly partisan account and have such an high output. All the attempts to proof it to be legitimate have, as far as I know, been disproven by earlier reports of the same content in addition to the fact that they often use vague phrases like "POTUS plans" etc.

As for the actual Tweet, the idea that Trump would lobby Kraft to cut players who skip the WH visit is absurd, given that actually doing that would destroy the franchise and even Trump has to understand that. It's more a "what would a comically stupid dictator do", aka. what plays with the Democratic base.

I only want a fake account that tweets about nothing but his love of watersports.

------------------

Also here's some FCC complaints about the Superbowl:

quote:

Cottage Grove, Oregon

My husband, five children aging 6-17 were watching Fox telivion [sic], the patriots were getting awarded the Lombardi trophy after winning the super bowl. I was feeling inspiration for the kids, that anything is possible for my childrens [sic] future. The whole time they are walking the trophy down you hear the F word or MF over and over. It was ridiculous to have people that your kids look up to, hearing verbiage like that. I thought there was a mandaty [sic] time delay for reasons like this. I didn't invite that language into my house but yet it was there during family TV time. I'm outraged that the technology provided doesn't better protect innocent ones from those obscenities. I think this has to stop and someone needs to make sure it doesn't happen anymore. Totally dissatisfied with what you allow!!! It can be avoided!

...
San Antonio, Texas

The African American guy carrying a silver trophy was yelling "motherfucker" at least two times. This is inappropriate for young viewers and Fox has crossed the line as well as the NFL.

....
Rosemead, California

At the end of the superbowl [sic] a black teammate congratulated tom brady and told him "YOURE THE GREATEST, YOURE THE loving GREATEST, YOURE THE loving GREATEST!"

...
Hazlehurst, Georgia

I cannot believe Willie McGinest is so uncouth he cannot find a better word than motherfu##er while carrying the Lombardi trophy past players and fans. This happened after Superbowl 51 on Feb 5 2017. Obviously fox was unaware because it was not bleeped out. He told fans and players to kiss it, kiss this motherfu##er, tongue kiss it. I mean really. And while staring into camera.

....
Jupiter, Florida

I think the T-Mobile super bowl commercials are extremely inappropriate for young audiences due to the sado-masochism innuendos. This is much worse than Janet Jackson's accidental exposure!! I'm just glad it's a school night and my children went to bed since I live on the East coast [sic].

...
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

T-Mobile aired two indecent sexual commercials during the Super Bowl. This is supposed to be a family event. The kids already have to leave during the sexually charged halftime show and now they have to leave for the commercials. Families all over the country now have to explain BDSM to their kids and how their new campaign of #TheSafeWordIsUnlimited is appropriate.

So I'm right now debating whether teams should want Martellus Bennett on their team prompted by this tweet

https://twitter.com/MartysaurusRex/status/830099902466314241


Why you would want him? He is a good to very good TE that can block and catch passes.

Why you wouldn't want him? He declined a 7m py contract from New England before the 2016 season, which means his price is almost certainly considerably higher now. His track record with teams is not the best, often developing into some kind of locker room disturbance. In addition to that he is now used to winning and the Patriots way, which might make him flame out even faster if your team is struggles.
