Justin877 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Yeah. I can only hope he looks to fuck over the tax payers of Virginia just to hear Rippa go on and on about it. Not all of us Virginia taxpayers, Northern Virginia maybe, they are like their own sovereign entity anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Not Logan Funny... Tom Brady had the same reaction. It can't be smart to continually piss off the greatest player to ever put on your uniform. As soon as Brady's skills diminish he will be traded too. Belichick don't give a fuck.

Sammy Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 The NFLPA should have addressed this during the last lockout. Stupid not to do so. Well, considering the NFLPA basically agreed to let the owners collude... Seriously. I think the NFLPA has to be a terrible union. The entity I'm most puzzled with in this whole Gordon ordeal is the union for allowing such a terrible testing system. Gordon just got suspended for second hand pot smoke, which is allowed under the CBA. Also, I'm not exactly sure why someone in the NFL/testing agency chain of command didn't just see the results and ask for an immediate re-test. This makes everyone involved look really bad.

I think its common knowledge that the NFL union is the worst of the three big sports(sorry I don't know about the NHL). The guy trying to be the union head is already bending over to take the 18 game season, no wonder all the players end up crippled. I know the game is violent , but having a bad union only makes things worse. As for the Racialslurs new stadium, is fed ex in Maryland? Maybe Snyder will try to screw over them or DC proper. Remember kids, if one owner can con its fanbase(Arthur Blank), then ALL owners will. . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadspin posted another article looking at the other possible scenarios - including a dome in DC where RFK is located in order to get a SB and WC final and the stadium wrangling all being a pose to get something out of a name change. God this is going to be a master clusterfuck. I pity the poor RacialSlur fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 From today's Deadspin Lions preview AT LEAST WE FINALLY TOOK DAVID AKERS OUT BACK AND SHOT HIM. FUCKING GUY KICKED LIKE A FUCKING SABOTEUR. KERRY VON ERICH COULDVE MADE SOME OF THE FIELD GOALS THAT MOTHERFUCKER BRICKED H/T to Ed who read it before me I am assuming that was written by Fowler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdA Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Aww, poor poor Fowler. This might be my favorite thing from the preview, actually - Here is a fun fact that many people don't know. In 2011, the Lions made a trade during the 2011 draft with the Seattle Seahawks in order for us to move up and get Mikel Leshoure. We agreed to swap the 154th pick for the 157th. The Seahawks used the 154th pick on Richard Sherman. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuetsar Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 This Lions team is basically what would happen if China ever made an NFL team. It was founded in a big manufacturing city that quickly turned into a war zone like ghost town. At the surface, we're flashy as hell: Megatron, Stafford, Suh, etc. We have everything that would make a casual spectator blindly trust us to succeed. But halfway through the season Stafford goes brain dead, the secondary's knees explode, and everything malfunctions into one heaping mess. There is so much gold to be mined in this one. . .

Stupid question, but why the hell would Virginia have to pay in for a D.C. team. Maryland at worst, but why Virginia? If they put the stadium in Virginia they could try to get the state to pay for it instead of Daniel Snyder paying for it. You have to understand that most of the paying customers don't live in D.C. they live in the Virginia and Maryland suburbs, and a most of the areas where you could build a stadium in D.C. aren't the best areas. Fedex is in Landover, Maryland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supremebve Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Yeah, I forgot they were in Maryland, my bad. Moving to Virginia reminds me of MetLife Stadium for some reason. I'd say that the fanbase is more Virginia than Maryland based purely off the fact that Maryland has their own team. Virginia also has two of the highest income counties in the country that could "afford" to tax their citizens enough to build a state of the art stadium. (If some of you guys knew how much small ass apartments cost in Fairfax and Loudon counties you would think they were lying. I used to live in a "cheap" two bed room condo in Alexandria for over $2K a month. I loved it's location, but had to decide whether I wanted to live there or have a financial future.)
