Re: Saints adding 'End Racism' to end zones this year
One more thing to take into consideration, Danno. Much of the information concerning Jacob Blake's recent legal issues weren't not common knowledge at the point in time that NFL teams were reacting. Given a little more lead time they may have come to a different decision on wearing the name tags.

bc Those who wore his name on their helmets just stated that sexual assault is OK, so long as the current universally accepted social justice platform is advertised on TV and via superstar athletes. Those photos will exist in perpetuity, without context. It was a bad idea, regardless of the idiot who thumbs up’d the “team” doing it. |

It's pretty much a non issue moving forward except for those few. Now, back to football! |

Re: Saints adding 'End Racism' to end zones this year
From what I have heard from those in the know his elbow is healthier than it has been in years. He has played the last several years with a problem in that elbow but had never addressed it medically. It finally gave way and he had to have it fixed for good. From everything I am hearing is for the first time in years he is not experiencing any pain in the elbow when throwing. You are familiar with the Tommy John procedure, right? Those pitchers and others that come back from the surgery have said and shown that their arm is stronger than ever.
I'm full in on Big Ben this season. |

While he looks out of shape even with the bad elbow he's been putting up huge passing numbers. I think he'll be back. More than one expert have been picking the Steelers to win it all. |

So F Pittsburgh, lol. |
