    You're dreaming as usual. Jennings not a game breaker? C'mon, man! And whatever the hell burst is, Jennings had it in spades.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

      Went to urgent care today and I have pneomnia.

      Wtf, old people are supposed to get that. Not mid-life distance runners.
      But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

        Yes, and it's not even close.

          It's no joke either. I had it 7 years ago and it freakin leveled me for a few days.

            Thunder Dan has more burst than Freeman right now. Freeman was the guy that knew instinctively how to find the hole in the zone, so teams had a hard time protecting themselves from Brooks. He could get deep, but like James Jones, it wasn't so much speed as technique and guile. His speed wasn't bad when he was young, but not top end for WR then. He got heavier later in his career and that speed disappeared. He never forgot how to get open underneath though.

            Be careful Dan, pneumonia is tricky to treat. It doesn't kill the olds outright (though it can) so much as it leads to lots of complications and repeats. Its kind of like a Tramontana tackle, it just hangs on.

            Don't be in a hurry to get back to a normal schedule.
            Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

              Jennings with a broken leg had more of a burst than Freeman did.

              I can't run no more
              With that lawless crowd
              While the killers in high places
              Say their prayers out loud
              But they've summoned, they've summoned up
              A thundercloud

                  Yup, already to schedule my check up X-rays in a month to make sure it is taken care of.

                  Massive antibiotics, rest, and fluids. I guess my half marathon at the end of the month is shot.

                    They are about like the hawk years. They make a play every game or two, and don't screw up a lot. So you don't really know they're there, which is both good and bad

                      Freeman was slow as hell. Jennings was a special player for a few years, like top 3 we. In the OBJ class

                      People don't like to remember that because of the way he left, and then fizzled with shit qb's, but he was the best Wr we had since sharpe, with brooks not for behind him IMO

                        Glad to see romo getting so much love. Nothing he says annoys me too bad, sometimes he’s hilarious. If I had to nit pick him, he sounds too nice, and that’s slightly annoying, but he’s funny and on point enough to not be off point. I liked collinsworth the best, but now it might be Romo because of his sense of humor.
