Hammerheads are freaky looking creatures aren't they?

Also in football ranking news Denver's ESPN beat guy found some executives who rate Mark Sanchez as the 3rd best QB in the division over Alex Smith. I didn't know Parm was an executive. Rivers was first obviously, then:

quote:

Raiders QB Derek Carr is the up-and-comer and in an informal poll of seven personnel executives about the quarterbacks in the division he was the No. 2 guy. Young and strong-armed, Carr also has a composure about him. The executives then put Mark Sanchez, the presumed Broncos starter next on the list -- just barely ahead of the Chiefs’ Alex Smith. The biggest reason? Most think coach Gary Kubiak’s offense will fit Sanchez and the Broncos are expected to run the ball well. Smith had always played low-risk football and limits interceptions, but the personnel executives want to see him make the throws he needs to make when the games are on the line.

You guys make me feel a hell of a lot better about life here in Cincinnati.

I am so excited for Bengals preseason games. Combo of good for a backup QB play until late and really interesting WR competition.

I really have no clue how Sanchez is still even in the league. He's loving horrible. I guess he bought time with those Jets playoff runs but Jesus.

Adulthood+ is when you get smashed into by some lady going perpendicular to the flow of traffic on a major highway, and then your friend tells you she tested positive for cocaine in the ER but you can't actually do anything without it being a HIPAA violation. At least your other person was insured!

Her insurance company accepted liability but the adjuster apparently turned it over to their total loss department and they haven't called me in a week. I started calling and leaving them messages on Wednesday and have made about six calls since, nothing yet.

Call their central call center Ross you can get the supervisor info. Just move it up the chain. It actually works in insurance.

No joke, I've seen a lot more Timbers gear here than Trailblazers.

it might just be because the former's in season, but even at the airport it was shittons of ducks and timbers merchandise everywhere.

I spun out on an on ramp thanks to a patch of black ice and got T-boned by a semi going just north of 60 mph.

That was a fun day. I had a burrito sitting on my passenger seat -- It hit me in the face and covered my entire head in burrito goop.

edit: Oh yeah and I broke a bunch of bones and had a vertebral subluxation. The burrito wounded my pride tho.

Hi goons, I live in Sunnyvale now. My roommate (Panthers fan) and I are trying to decide on Raiders vs Broncos or Raiders vs Panthers. I'm thinking Panthers game so I can anger two fanbases with my dope Von Miller jersey. Panthers games are gonna be harder to come by, too. Also seeing Oakland get clowned is a fair compromise.

I was on a highway with a valley type grass median with two lanes on either side. Hydroplaned in a rainstorm and rolled 3 times through the median into the furthest lane away of oncoming traffic. I didn't hit anybody and nobody hit me and I crawled out of my overturned van with no injuries, had someone been in the passenger seat though they woulda been done
