5'5" and under. What did you think he meant?

:lol

Speaking of under. Over/under on horrible INTs thrown by Joe the Great tomorrow night? I have it at two (take the over).

Seeing Flacco shit himself would be a perfect start to the season. Other than Tebow playing I can't think of a stronger omen.

But do they really enjoy life? Nobody wants to be an old short guy having to get out the step ladder everytime you want to get something out of the cupboard.

How many tall old guys have you ever seen?They usually shrink and become short or need a wheelchair negating the tallness.

Doing well in FA remains an issue, but most of our best moves are the less flashy ones. Extending this to trades, Harvin is pretty much our big, flashy high-risk move, but our downside is mainly cap room where we've been great otherwise.

Letting go of Winfield and Robinson? Not enough performance per cap in the face of roster competition.

My wife's grandpa was like 6'4" when he died, he was 92. He was like 6'6" or something as a young guy. He was a different breed though, he was a farmer, smart and just built out of pure iron. I think some of these old guys that actually worked hard when they where young just seem to live forever for whatever reason.

Just saw this from college week 1 recap stuff:

I think the play ended up in a loss of yards.

We need to see more stuff like this in the NFL but that backfires more spectacularly. Haven't had a good formation laugh since SwingingGate-Gate.

wrong. you also lost a first round pick. but given your awful scouting/front office/coaching staff (as evidenced by you already getting rid of a 4th round pick from this year) maybe it really was only a cap negative

Unbalanced lines in the NFL just lead to super fast LBs overloading the weak side. Clay Matthews would take the handoff or sack the QB before he took 3 steps

Yeah should be a good game, I've been to the home opener for the last couple years but never seen a win -_-
Click to expand...

Ha. Well don't hate me. I've only been to one season opener since the Return of the team.

Can you guess which one?

Yep. 2004 against the Ravens, our only win. lol

Jeff Garcia. lol

So you're overdue an opener win!

Hey, Deacon, do you recall the Steelers ever using waivers this much? It's making me nervous.
Click to expand...

Can't say I do. Not worried too much about the special teams prop up guys, but our o-line...Gilbert is for sure gonna take out at least 1 guy this year before going out himself. Whimper sees the field and goodbye season.

Poor Philip Rivers. He was my MVP pick in 2011, before his bizarre and precipitous fall the past two years. Now he's just a joke.

What the hell even happened to the Chargers? Didn't they have a once promising running back? What ever happened to VJAX?

They had promise. They were gonna be somebody.

Yeah. The Chargers completely missed their window. Had the talent, just never made a run. Curse of Schottenheimer.

Mmm..that time of year again.

Hopefully, the Cowboys won't fuck up this season and actually get somewhere.

(I'm probably deluding myself. It'll be another repeat of the Cowboys Cycle.)

You guys ever had someone tell you not to image search a certain word and you still do it. I did it with the word trypophobia.

Dang it, I close my eyes and now all I see is Man Kaep running around carrying a ball. GAF, what am I to do? I'm not FMT, this shouldn't be normal.
