Agreed - the reports I've read specifically mentioned higher payouts for sending guys back to the locker room, and even higher if they had to be carted off the field.

Now, you CAN hit a guy perfectly cleanly and perfectly legally and he can still wind up carted off the field. But I suspect that's not quite the spirit of the program.
 
I mean, does that not piss you off as a fan? I don't like seeing Peyton Manning watching from the sidelines. I like seeing him get sacked, but you want to beat the other team's best players. Never like seeing a guy get injured.
 
As a fan I'm realistic and know this goes on in just about every team. I understand the gamesmanship of not intentionally injuring another person, or aiming specifically for a knee. But lets be realistic, every time you play defense in football your goal is to hurt your opponent. The harder you hit the less hard he'll play against you, the more turnovers, better stats you will have. You target arms, knees, shoulders etc to cause pain and make them not play in the game anymore. To intentionally end a career is different from knocking a player out of a game. As terrible as this sounds everyone knows the goal is to knock out your opponent for the game or hurt him so he isn't as effective.

that's a red herring.

So do you believe that is the reason the league implemented such rules as the defenseless receiver and the guidelines as to where you can tackle the QB?

Luckily Cape knows how to keep his thread on course. Otherwise you f*ckers are steering this towards getting moved to the debate forum by the mod.
 
One thing I thought was interesting - ESPN had an opinion poll earlier today to see if people thought all teams had similar programs, most teams had similar programs, or only some teams had similar programs. They even had a state by state breakdown.

No state seemed to believe all teams had similar programs.

But MA, VT, WI, MN, IN, and the Dakotas were the only states that predominantly believed that only some teams had similar programs. So, the homes of a few of the most highly respected franchises, plus the Dakotas, believed that most teams aren't all that dirty.

Just thought that was interesting.
 
haha! i actually have one of those. my grandpa grabbed it from some rummage sale a long time ago. I could get it to start and idle, but once it came off choke it would die. never figured out why.

Wow... What a riveting story. The whole time.... right on the edge of my seat... DYING to know what happened next.
 
So who's gonna land Matt Flynn? It's too bad the Pack can't hold onto that kid, but Graham Harrell (the last real Texas Tech QB) will be the new #2.

that was it. about every 4 years i try to get it running again. always come to the same conclusion - case seals are probably bad. no way to split them either.
 
Huh. So now Drew Brees is pissed that he's been franchised, and there's more discussion about allegations of Sean Payton "misappropriating" some Vicodin (witgh the scandal then being covered up).

Sounds like a Tragically Hip song.

I said it three months ago, I'll say it again today. Denver. With Tebow to Jax for a 1st.

I was going to state your stance but knew you'd chime in. ;).

Cape on the other hand skirted my inquiry only to respond to olllllo's post from 4 days ago. With poor grammar I might add. And before you blame your cell phone the T is no where near the N. :p
 
I don't think Mario Williams has come to any agreements - just going for a visit. But, if he's going to visit Buffalo, that means he's looking to get every last nickel (how else will Buffalo get him?), so he's not headed to New England now. Meh.
