There is a window of opportunity that isn't going to last forever.

Hey, like Guido says, it's entertainment now not a real sport. If you think about it from that perspective you can just relax without getting upset. The fix is in. I took his advice and try to look at it from that perspective. Although, it still didn't help my blood pressure or my liver.

Edit: You should see the look on football fans faces when I tell them that. Pure disbelief. I tell them to look for the signs. Late flags to keep the game close, Short weeks with travel, home games in London, and the unexplainable personal fouls for getting within 6 feet of a fan favorite QB.

In the pocket and planted seems to be his sweet spot. When he gets mobile his eyes get real bright like that kid in the yearbook that used to bite everyone. (crazy eyes)

Normally I'd agree with that, but this past two seasons, he's not looked at all comfortable behind Peat and other interior offensive linemen to be named...

Do we draft another O lineman in 2021?

I wasn't expecting Ruiz in last year's draft that's for sure. Especially in the 1st round.

K&B. We sold a batch of K&B pencils for good money recently. K&B is classic and people love it.
