In the latest example of NFL players are built so goddamn different

https://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2023/07/22/seahawks-dk-metcalf-eats-just-one-meal-a-day-in-bizarre-candy-centric-diet

quote:

“Talk about how important nutrition is. Nutrition’s huge,” Garnett said.

“I’m probably the worst person to ask that,” Metcalf shot back. “I’m a candy type person. I eat one meal a day, drink one coffee and eat like three full bags of candy.”

Garnett was completely baffled.

“Man, define bags of candy, man. Jelly beans?”

“Nah, see I’m a gummy type of guy. So you get lifesavers—…”

“Come on man. Stop, man. Come on. Hold on, hold on, man,” Garnett said as he cut Metcalf off. Garnett needed Metcalf to take him through the structure of his whole meal plan for the day.

“I’m gonna just take you through yesterday,” Metcalf said. “So yesterday I woke up, worked out. Worked out again. Came home, showered. I’m hungry. Run to Starbucks, get a quick coffee. That’s going to hold me ‘till 4, 5 o’clock. This 12. This gonna hold me for like four hours. Around 4:30, I order some candy and a water. Got the Skittles gummies. Then I got the Lifesaver Creations. They the same size bag so I just mix them…get the gummy, get the candy, get the water, eat that. That’s gonna hold me ‘till like 8 o’clock. I’m having dinner at 8/9. And then I eat dinner, go to sleep. … I’m a candy eater.”


Garnett was baffled and most average people are likely blown away as well. Don’t check Metcalf’s blood sugar, but be sure to check his stats.

In 66 career games across four seasons, Metcalf has caught 306 passes for 4,218 yards and 35 touchdowns, becoming a clear No. 1 option at wideout in the process.

I hope someone hires Hue Jackson again and he just keeps...existing wherever losing all of the games but playing politics so well no one thinks to fire him.

His best season in Cleveland by far was his last, 2-5-1 before you fire the guy? 2 and a half more wins than his first 2 years. He was on the upswing man.

He's the HC at Grambling last I saw

Is there a team that is willing to give up a high pick for him plus pay him?

He had just short of 1k carries in 3 years of college. Add that in with his NFL carries and he's got Derrick Henry's pro career number of carries. There's no way in hell.

Today I learned the Bears are trying to build a stadium out in bumfuck nowhere despite having one of the best stadium situations a team could possibly have: A stadium right in the middle of downtown.

Downtown stadiums rule. Everyone can get to them just like driving to work, there is poo poo to do outside of the stadium, public transit goes right there.

I assume this is a racism-based move? The owner hire someone to break into some cars during a game to gin up some hysterical news coverage?

Smallest stadium also lost it's historical status because the last renovation got hosed up. Can't blame anyone for giving up on it.

He was denied time served. 3 years minimum. He'll be what 27 28yo former first round pick. Not terrible odds someone throws a vet minimum deal at him to see if he's still fast.

I see this movie is about child trafficking, is this some kind of weirdo QAnon dog whistle? I have never fully understood the connection between child trafficking and weirdo QAnon poo poo.

It's qanon weirdness and promotion for a weird cultish anti child trafficking org that are noted for being wildly ineffective but very good at promoting themselves as the real saviors of children. They really love to livestream their sting "operations". So yeah it's about as Qanon as poo poo gets.

I've seen so many discussions over the years about how a bad QB really just needed to sit for a year and they were being RUINED by their team throwing them in the fire before they were ready. Now I'm being told that all that is bullshit and the only way to advance as a player is to wrack up xp on the field.

It's almost like you need to put the practice time to practical use to be good.

I almost don't blame the Colts for throwing Richardson out there.
