RIPPA Posted August 8, 2021 Author Share Posted August 8, 2021 1 hour ago, Kuetsar said: I thought the new CBA said teams couldn't forgive fines anymore. . . The language in his new deal probably isn’t forgiving the fines it probably is some sort of bonus that just happens to be the exact same amount as the fines 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabremike Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Question: Is it in any way possible to get to Landover Shithole Stadium using public trans for a WFC game? Want to go for the Bengals preseason game as I can get a tix for less than the cost of a Dunkin cold brew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closet stops are Morgan Boulevard and then a .9 mile pedestrian walkway according to WMATA's web site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Hunter Long went down with a non-contact injury during practice today and was carted off. So, this probably means that Adam Shaheen, barring a trade, will make the Dolphins opening week team. So file this away for when the future outbreak happens: https://miami.cbslocal.com/2021/08/07/dolphins-miami-adam-shaheen-vaccine/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) Rumblings are that some folks are upset that Calvin Johnson didn't mention the Lions in general, or Matt Stafford in particular, during his induction speech. Johnson has heat with the Lions organization so probably not a huge surprise there. Stafford was there in person as Calvin's guest so doubtful there's any heat there, just a decision to not mention anybody by name.

KidNatural Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 The HoF speeches were ridiculously short this year. Even Peyton only had 6 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were all told to keep it short since there were two years' worth of guys going in. Didn't want any repeats of Ray Lewis talking for 11 hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Isaac Bruce apparently felt the need to take a shot at Bert Emanuel and Ryan Yarborough - both of whom were drafter after Bruce - in a rather petty "I told you so" part of his speech: https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/isaac-bruces-hall-of-fame-speech-was-dripping-with-righteous-vindication-how-ya-like-me-now/ar-AAN6MwQ?li=BBnbfcL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I guess it was a shot at them but it was more of a shot at people who said he would result in nothing more than a Bert Emanuel and Ryan Yarborough level player. But yeah he was definitely in the mood to tell people. But hey at least we have probably the only time we will ever hear a Kool Moe Dee reference with his "How you like me now" line at the Hall of Fame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these people are borderline psychotic when it comes to their competitiveness, they aren't self aware enough to realize how toxic that behavior is.

RIPPA Posted August 11, 2021 Author Share Posted August 11, 2021 NFL has decided to keep in place the Injured Reserve rule they used last year (only for this year - who knows in the future) An unlimited number of players can return from IR. Players are eligible to return after 3 weeks (8 weeks had been the norm) Only players AFTER the cutdown to the 53 man roster are eligible to return (to eliminate teams stashing guys on IR) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
