    Anyone who is older and has had a hamstring or calf muscle cramp in the middle of the night surely knows how painful that injury could be. And that's just a cramp. As fans, it isn't realistic for us to mock or make light of any sort of injury.

    Sometimes you bump your toe on something it’s NBD. Sometimes. OUCH! It’s the same toe.

    this is nothing new. Caleb has a history of acting in unconventional ways. he's an oddly sensitive guy. but it's authentic. he clearly doesn't care about the optics, which i personally find refreshing. what you, i, or anyone else thinks matters not to him. remember when he sought out his mom after a loss while at USC and cried in her arms? what about the nail painting? this falls right in line with that.

    mimicking mago, i couldn't care less about any of the sideshows. i care about him being on the field and making things happen for my team. besides, if we knew every single intricate nugget about every single player on every single team, Caleb would quickly be drowned out and forgotten.

    i'm not defending him or getting worked up over what others think about him. i'm simply saying, where have you been? lol this is who he is.

    I'm rooting for the guy, and whatever his feels are are of no business of mine

    If that was Brady I'd be saying the same thing, it was kind of a big deal in the sense that everyone thought the Bears record setting offense was already done when he went down

    I'm glad he is ok, it will all be forgotten about next time he is out playing good ball

    Again I hope he can get to 4000 yards passing this season

    Well, there goes the Giants season - too bad.............

    The New York Giants face a significant setback as quarterback Jaxson Dart will undergo season-ending surgery following a knee injury sustained during Monday's (September 21) 28-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Despite initial reports suggesting a sprained MCL, further evaluations revealed more extensive damage to his MCL, PCL, and meniscus, though his ACL remains intact.

    Didn't this happen before because of some kind of forum screw up and took a day or 2 to get back to normal?

    Last night we saw how bad Green Bay really is. Hopefully now they will stop being ranked so high in all of the power rankings. I'm not sure why writers think that GB is constantly better than what they really are year after year.

    @galaxy27, funny post but Sony Betamax is a bad example. It was actually better than VHS with the exception of recording time, it lost out due to a better marketing scheme.

    As far as this new format I haven’t seen anything good about it nor has anyone else posted anything they like. At the coin forum there is one member who likes it and tends to defend it.

    Betamax was probably better engineered in narrow technical terms, but what it didn't have was an advantage in the things that actually drove 80s purchasing decisions: recording length (as you mentioned), hardware price, and shelf availability. no one was interested in swapping tapes halfway through the recording of a football game, and when video rental stores exploded, the winner was the format that had the larger installed base of players in people's homes. it was a useful reminder that a technically superior format doesn't automatically win a consumer market -- distribution & licensing strategy can matter more than engineering (also to your point).

    it wasn't a sudden death, but it was definitely a long, slow fade

    kinda like last night's game between the VHS Falcons and the Betamax Packers

    It's the Dallas Cowboys effect, it's the name and rich history
