All Purpose Trade / Roster Building Thread VI - We have goalies, but can they stay healthy?

[DaveG]

Can we weaponize twitter to force the Canes acknowledge that they owe us this for the TDA signing?

@saraciv420 you know what to do.

Jenkins played nose tackle which back in the day it wouldn't be outrageous for players in that position to have a target weight of 330+ lbs. It takes an absolutely insane amount of calories to keep that weight on during the season even for guys that love to eat.

Peppers, I'm not too surprised about either considering the type of edge rusher he was, combined with his career longevity. His game was predicated more on speed than power so he had to keep the weight down.

Even Tom Brady credits a lot of his longevity to keeping a strict diet.

I'm very serious when I say I've never seen a human being eat as much as Jenkins. He tried to give me a $100 bill one day at lunch to sneak him half a hotel pan of meatloaf. That man could consume more pasta in one sitting than I could eat in a week. It was truly an eye opening experience to feed a professional football team two meals a day 5-7 days a week. We used to marinate a whole pallet of chicken breasts twice a week.

The slow days of the off-season suck

You guys are really getting me way too hyped about Kessel. I dont need more dissapointment!

Look up before and after playing days photos of Joe Thomas. What linemen put their bodies through to be able to play at that level is insane and truthfully not very healthy for long term life.

need a tatar signing to get a dopamine hit. hurry please.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

If we acquire Kessel I suggest we all have hot dogs for dinner that night.

lol that is so awesome. Jenkins was always such a character.

I worked in a few kitchens in high school and college which was interesting to say the least but I can't even imagine what it's like working in one for a NFL team.

Yeah a lot of guys who were required to be 300+ lbs in their career slim down after retiring. Jordan Gross is another guy who slimmed down considerably. I also know a guy who played defensive line at UNC and in the NFL briefly who is pretty skinny now compared to his playing days even though he's involved in the food and bev business.

A Tatar signing is the dopamine hit equivalent of an instagram model getting a few hundred likes on her (or his in the case of Martin Necas) latest post. The type of dopamine hit I'm after is like if a junkie got dropped off in a police department drug evidence room.

 

[MrazeksVengeance]

you wouldn't be able to find it *that* way

It's probably in a jar of formaldehyde in some lab somewhere. Or whatever they do with the busted shit they take out of people.

As you have described it for research or they just deal with it as with every other biological waste in medicine. Sterilization and then landfill.

Forum meet-up at Snoopys and Kessel is invited....well all buy him a hot dog.

Shit, I’ll probably be doing that anyway.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Phil just recognizes what a versatile comedic tool hot dogs are. And darn tasty too!

 

[AD Skinner]

If you go to the zen hot dog stand, they can make you one with everything

Probably in one of Kessel's hot dogs.

Just watch out for the f***ing rollers!

Haha, I wanted to put more, but I already was worried I was overdoing it.

I was scrolling fast and just assumed it was Ginger Papa.

Even though he slows down loading the page by 500%, we still love him.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Sounds like SJ is going to give Kane away.

great reclamation project for us

 

[bleedgreen]

Late to practice, missed team functions, bankruptcy, betting addiction, bad divorce, teammates want him gone. That’s our music.

Given what has been on Snoopy’s signs over the years, I’m sure DeAngelo will be there.

if the shorks retain, he's 100% coming here

 

[Chrispy]

Even then I think it’s only if Gardiner goes back and Kane is signed 2 more years than Gardiner.

If we set a side prop on who plays more games this season, Kane or DeAngelo…

who does Kane bet on?
