In case someone needed some motivation to get back in the recording studio.

Coincidentally I've been in the studio quite often in the past few months!

Is the punch line there supposed to be "just kidding, half the players will be done after 3 minimum salary years, they'll still get life-altering concussions and they will not have a right to use their status to weigh in on critical social issues LOL"?

Sort of, but I think the comic is taking the "side" of the players and not making fun of them.

Well, this one might spark a little disagreement!

Cowboys, Patriots fans are best in the NFL; Chiefs, Los Angeles lagging: study
The goal of the study is to use statistical analysis to determine the NFL’s “best” fans, judged on the entirety of the fanbase. In other words: every team has its core of religiously devoted, ride-or-die fans; the teams at the top of the list simply have many, many more.

Dr. Lewis judges fan bases on three criteria: Fan Equity, Social Equity and Road Equity.

Well yeah..."religiously devoted." Zealots are trash.

You can't exactly measure "decency of collective humans who root for Team X."

I am in upstate New York near Saratoga springs tent camping on a night where the stars are about three feet away. So, generally , yes. As for the curse on the Bengals, you get numb to these things.

Strahan no longer the single season sacks record holder.

(Well, kind of.)
Yay, another slightly famous alma mater. Good for him.

"You should have had the record but we didn't bother to count at the time so tough shit" sounds like a proper Lions thing.

PFR went back to 1960 so apparently not. Given how little passing (relatively) there was prior to that seems like 23 is probably the “real” record. Really, Strahan had 21.5 as far as I’m concerned since Favre took a dive for him.

(Tell Bengal to not look at this.)

The definition of a bad trade...
[+] spoiler
The Washington Redskins traded for Bacon and Lemar Parrish before the 1978 season in exchange for a first-round draft pick. He recorded 15 sacks in 1979 and 11 in 1980. And Parrish was a pro bowler in two of the next three seasons.

Reggie White had 21 in a 12-game season. The same 12-game season Jerry Rice had 22 receiving TDs.

Believe it or not there were actually more sacks back in the day. There's much more passing nowadays but teams get the ball out so quick.

And you can damn near leave a free runner with a bunch of qbs. Roll the other direction and maybe fast enough to leave the back side or even so long as he's facing the rusher that guy is as like as not to come up empty. Not only miss the tackle but air. Even the non mobile guys do the duckunders and step asides.

Getting it out too slowly is easily the reason that QBs in the past were more likely to get sacked. It isn't a QB's running speed that deals with avoiding pressure, but rather the more minute footwork. That reminds me of one of my favorite stats: Dan Marino, who had a total of 87 rushing yards for his career, went over a calendar year between getting sacked.

Pittsburgh Steelers' Dwayne Haskins injured by wife, who faces a domestic violence charge


Got to be a strong woman -
Haskins, according to reports, said he remembered getting into a fight with his wife but didn't remember getting punched in the mouth. In searching the room, officers found a piece of tooth and blood, per reports.

I've seen a few women that might out a beatdown on an NFL guy. One lady in particular stopped her car crossways directly in front of mine at the cook out drive through. I said not shit as her DT ass stared directly at me smoking a preroll. Why an NFL guy might marry that?

Answer: Haskins-Gondrezick played basketball at Michigan State University. She is the daughter of Grant Gondrezick and Lisa Harvey-Gondrezick, and her sister Kysre was the fourth overall pick in last year’s WNBA draft, playing for the Indiana Fever.

Yeah. Not a sign of a stable relationship.

Especially in Vegas.

I'll never forget being in Bally's in the early 90s and seeing a wedding party leaving the chapel area. Bride was so pissed that she was propped up by a couple of groomsmen.
