Ex-NFL player Phillip Adams had same 'unusually severe' CTE as Aaron Hernandez when he killed six innocent neighbors and himself in April: Doctors blame league for IGNORING him when he begged for help

Crazy week with the Covid canceled/rescheduled game. My pick of the day -

Hope Lamar is playing.

Oh, good! The Clownboys are playing.
That means I can safely go outside and run some errands now.

Packers/Ravens was a great game - I liked the decision to go for it at the end, but didn't really like the playcall.

And with the Patriots losing and the Titans losing - the Chiefs are now in the driver's seat for the 1 seed. It didn't look possible back when they were at 3-4. Go Chiefs!

The way Mahomes was playing (and not playing) earlier in the season didn't help either. Can't help but admire KC.

Was rooting for a Ravens upset. Rodgers is a bit too cocky now or has he always been this way and I just wasn't looking? Either way, they'll choke before getting to the SB.

And any team that can prevent a Buccaneers SB appearance has my vote. heh

RIP John Madden. A Legend.

I saw that this morning. I really thought he had already passed. I feel dumb.

Wtf I was sure he was dead too.

It's really ****ing weird because during Christmas, my brother got me Madden 22 for PS5 and my Dad was like: "I wonder how much Madden makes off these games?" - to which I replied: "Nothing right? Isn't he dead?" - and he informed me: "No, not yet at least". He died two days later. Very weird.
