Hoping around 24, i think having an actual NFL tight end will help supposedly Kmet looked really good in camp. Who knows but it'll be nice to have 2 guys around 6'6 in the red zone

Lions are the one team Trubustky plays well against.

RNH has AA beat by a hyphen and AA is tied with OEL again with a hyphen:

Nugent-Hopkins (14 characters)
Altybarmakyan (13)
Ekman-Larsson (13)
Marchessault (12)
Namestnikov (11)
Krivokrasov (11)
Vasilevskiy (11)
Hjalmarsson (11)

There's gotta be someone with a longer last name than RNH.

I am gonna talk a long shot that someone will announce there is a vaccination, but that will simply be another lie to attempt re-election.

When a true inoculation is ready it will be after a fairly long testing period, and then don't expect it to be next to the aspirins ar Walgreens.

Every year there is tons of advertising for "We do Flu shots," but my health care provider has us wait until the REALLY current strain that is the best attempt to combat what they guess will be 'the one' THAT HITS...EVEN THEN, WE CALL, THEY SAY, NOT HERE YET, AND FINALLY IT IS READY FOR us to get the shots.

There are going to be people waiting to go to the games, like everything is done.

MY neighbors n ice went in to get here antibodies tested to donate and found out she HAD HAD the virus and was a line carrier....too and, she didn't so she didn't go to her daytime office job and here nighttime BAR job, maybe she would have infected all this people w/o knowing since she never left sick.

There are going to be people uncomfortable about large c crowds mostly because you are quickly moving through space they occupied.

Others are going to pay the odds, balance their age and the rates of severity their health and just do it, either because they are in their minds over with Covid-19, they are simply bored of their quarantines, or feel they are VERY comfortable with the chances they will not get THAT sick...kinda like Herman Cain and Kimberly Guilfoyle.

Sure if you are a non smoker, good health, no peer-existing health issues, sure you may stand a better chance on not being that sick...or you may.

It is not for me to decide - I just know sports teams are going to want to open try to provide safety and open, and everyone will be aware of the chances ---
If they are not, too bad for the rest of this and expect four more years or us dodging each other in public.

All of this is true and I think you can add ticket prices will fall. Just my "one cent."

Along with Robinson. They could throw Harris out there too. He's 6'7".

Everytime I have seen Vegas they have dominated the play badly but they need an elite goal scorer or two.

I don't really either and hope I'm wrong as well. We'll see. He does play the Lions well and their first three games are all really winnable.

There's the typical praise coming out of camp about his improved footwork, decision making, getting rid of the ball quicker; but it doesn't mean anything until the games do.

I think some of the things will be pretty easy to spot in terms of any of the above meaning anything. For me it will be that first pass he throws to a receiver running free over the middle and Mitch sails one about 5 feet over Robinson's outstretched arms.

Toots Hibbert, front man for Toots and the Maytals and one of the “founders” of Reggae (and probably provided its name), dead at 77, possibly from the Covid-19.

Along with Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, Jimmy Cliff and others, the leader of a movement.

And, at Yankee Stadium, the first lead-off walk-off sacrifice fly in baseball history last nite as the Yankees beat the Orioles 2-1 in 10 innings.

Only in 2020.

Starting an extra inning with a runner on 2nd, 7 inning games, relief pitchers have to pitch to at least 3 batters (or end the inning)....

Baseball.

Economic history shows and proves that mistreatment or health issues or whatever is the issue, has to become so bad until everyone is on the same page. The bombing of Pearl Harbor, the 9/11/2001 attacks....

Devisive issues and a solution is tricky business to combat. In a democratic society it is difficult to get everyone to agree to a plan. That is what I learned from European Economic history class and other classes when a collegiate. In our country big money tries to influence or control the outcome of how society shapes up - for the benefit of the ultra wealthy. So there is another barrier to overcome. And that my friends has been on going at least for 100 years. It is coming from both sides of whatever political parties exist. You see proof of it lately with lots if aggressive action by people spawned by the ultra rich

The influence to wear or not wear masks in itself is a devisive issue. Attendance at sporting events, concerts, movies political convention, bars and restaurants - large gatherings that is - is affected by the pesonnal health of everyone in our society. Your attendance is gambling no matter what the odds you may think you face.

I agree with a lot of this, but like the kids on the Hawks it takes a few years to acclimate to the NFL speed, the other 2 QBs in our draft are anomalies not the norm, the irony is this QB class was considered one of the worst so much for analysts, This is the year he needs to take the next step if he doesn't show progress then it's time to move on. Next step is more games like he had vs Dallas and Detroit and less games like he has vs Pack

I agree, i also think Khudobin already knows, especially on the PP, where the shots are coming from.

Seems like the analysts say that quite a bit, but that was the knock on the group coming out that year.

I think you're right that the other two were the anomaly in that they produced almost right away. Mahomes held the clipboard for a year and came from a school that historically had QB's producing gaudy numbers in college but until PM it never translated into a pro offense.

One of the knocks on Mitch was he would likely take the longest to develop having played so few college games.

I'm hoping the lightbulb goes on and he starts recognizing coverages, dissecting defenses and all the other things franchise QB's do.

Like Bows was saying, I'd like to be wrong but don't have a lot of hope. Is it too early to start tanking for Trevor Lawrence?

The relief pitcher rule was coming no matter what. I don't agree with it.

I actually like that one. It forces teams to get more well rounded pitchers instead of 1 hitter specialists.

I’m looking on the sideline to see if Jeremy Colliton is calling plays for the Bears’ offense.

Seven Lions points because of a terrible Bear s offensive set.
