Oh his insta video post right after the fact was hilarious. Quite the strategy: it happens...thoughts and prayers.

If I had a nickel for the amount of times I got in a fight with my partner, shook it off with a threesome with my brother, then midway through getting held at gunpoint by said partner...

Oh man, Las Vegas Raiders first ever home game is MNF vs the Saints. **** you Covid, I'd have totally tried to go!! New Orleans with 4 night games the first 8 weeks and only five 11am games all year, apparently we're the Cowboys.. Predictably, one of the night games is vs the Bucs, Week 8 in Tampa. Week 1 is also Saints/Bucs, NFL getting straight to business with Brady vs Brees.

Texans vs Chiefs for the Thursday night season opener. NFL should spot the Texans a 24-0 lead off the hop and see if they can hold on.

Meh, not bad. I like the return to full yellow...excuse me, "sol"...and royal blue, but the retros were better. Yeah the font isn't great. They're ok, definitely the 2nd best pro football uniforms in L.A. though.

yeah, bad numbers font. And that teamname on the chest looks really weird, almost like an ad.

I'll admit the ridiculous logo looks not that bad on the helmet though.

I appreciate that they went with more vibrant colours....everything seems to be more bland now and those colours do pop.

The Rams started in Cleveland in 1936, won the Championship in 1945, and moved to LA the following year.

This is a replica of their 1949 helmet:

Probably the background colors don't help in those pics either in that regard.

Like the Falcons third, the gradulating colors on the numbers on the blue jersey won't age well. Sticking the word mark on the front and the back hanger tag is also a curious move.

Chargers win the offseason logo and uniform competition by quite a bit.

Ummm....yeah I dont think this will be received well in many circles.

Quote:
Former Pittsburgh Steelers star James Harrison said coach Mike Tomlin gave him an envelope after the linebacker's devastating hit on Cleveland Browns wide receiver Mohamed Massaquoi in 2010.

"The g-est thing Mike Tomlin ever did, he handed me an envelope after that," Harrison said on Barstool's "Going Deep" podcast. "I'm not going to say what, but he handed me an envelope after that."

Harrison was fined $75,000 for the hit -- the most, he said, that he was ever fined. Massaquoi suffered a concussion as a result of the head-to-head hit, which was not flagged in the game.

"Listen, on everything I love, on my Daddy's grave, I hit that man with about 50% of what I had, and I just hit him because I wanted him to let loose of the ball," Harrison said on the podcast. "If I had knew they was gonna fine me $75,000, I would have tried to kill him."

The hit in question





Ugly..........and rewarded for it.

I've always said Mike Tomlin encouraged dirty hits.
