Always will be "America's Team" don't care if they're winning or losing...

You will also notice the big state of Texas tattooed proximally to that star. He was born and raised in that state so it would make sense.

Everyone in the country is united saying this was the wrong call.

There are some out there saying “but he didn’t survive the fall” but you can’t rip it out once you are on the ground. That’s a completed catch. Also, if that’s the case, on Denver’s last touchdown the receiver used the ground to assist in possession of the ball. We are in 2026 and still have zero clue of what a catch is.

If you can, @CobbWebb71 , take your kids to spring training. It’s super kid friendly and many players are accommodating in giving autographs to kids. Our oldest has a ball that, by incredibly good luck, has the entire opening day lineup for the Reds (including Dusty Baker) from probably 10-12 years ago. Mike Maddux (when he was pitching coach for the Rangers) also asked him to play catch before a game and they had a running conversation while they played catch.

I nearly posted the “Not that there’s anything wrong with that” gif. But this time I’m not sure.

Hoping the Rams can declaw the Bears.

I can’t decide which Vol I am for there. Byron Young vs Darnell Wright. Phew. That’s a conundrum.

Will Anderson Jr never laid a paw on Hendon Hooker when Darnell Wright took care of him all day long in 2022.



Meanwhile, what a wrecking ball!

Unless you want to continue seeing a bunch of grown men getting their nails painted, I say Byron Young.

Too HOT to trot Lady Vols player.

Ut-oh. What is this?

Byron Young

OLB

NIR-Rest

Does that mean he did not practice but may play? Or that he will rest today?

Not injury related. Just means he sat out practice...

Got mine broken when an elbow came thru my facemask. No need for a doctor. Coach just pinched the heck out of it and practice went on. To this day, it's kinda straight...sorta.

I don’t. The player in that situation has to survive going to the ground in order to establish that he caught the ball. If he’d caught the ball, ran 10 yards and then went down you’d be correct. He’s down, end of story. But in this case he hadn’t established that he caught the ball. By today’s rules he has to survive going to the ground here. In other words the ground itself can cause an incompletion here. It was a good call
