AB was real quiet on social media until he won that 5 mill from the Pats. I think he needed that money and highly doubt it last long.

Safe to say it's not going towards all his legal fees.

Given how long his last Steelers signing bonus lasted . . .

Raiders owner says canceling the entire NFL season is still one of three options the league has for 2020

(other two options are go as planned or push back start to November and go 12 game season)

Billionaire pro sports owners are generally pretty loathsome. I imagine that they have to hate each other.

would say that the weirdo seeming son of a famously iconoclastic adversarial father might go out of his way to play that up though. a lot of these billionaires are friendly because lets face their potential social circles are rather limited.

Relatively speaking, Davis is a pauper. His father never owned the whole team. He doesn't own the whole team. And pretty much all of his net worth is his portion of the team.

I'm not sure if this explains the haircut. They let him keep the bowl afterwards, right?

Former Steelers All-Pro Carlton Haselrig dies at 54

That’s a shame. I was literally just reading about him a couple weeks ago. Crazy good athlete.

That's a shame. Dude was a true freak and had a really good pro football career (considering how little football he played before he went to the Steelers) that was cut short by substance abuse, IIRC.

From Wiki....some paraphrasing too:

PIAA State Champion at Johnstown, who did not have a wrestling team, did not wrestle during the regular season, and apparently only wrestled in the playoffs

He is the only person to win six NCAA titles in wrestling, three times in Division II and three times in Division I. His Three-Peat of Division II & Division I NCAA National Championships were won in (1987, 1988, 1989). All six championships were won for Pitt–Johnstown.[2]

He won 3rd place in the D2 tournament his freshman year.

Haselrig never played a down of football in college.
Haselrig then moved on to professional football, where he played five seasons in the NFL, becoming a Pro Bowl and All-Pro offensive guard in 1992.

So... The Washington Football Team, eh?

Can they just keep it as that, please? Team is so pathetic and generic they might as well have the name to match.

I want to know where I can buy an official jersey, because I couldn't find a tab titled PATHETIC or GENERIC on the NFL shop website.

 

[pistolpete11]

Am I the only one that actually kind of likes the 'Washington Football Team' name? It's so generic that it's unique. It's better than the Texans or Panthers or Senators or whatever bullshit name they will come up with.

It needs to be the sentinels. Shane Falco for life, baby.

I know steelers have been habitual can kickers but isn’t just about everyone going to be really hurt by this? At least “contenders?”
