DeVante Parker – 6’3 216
Allen Hurns – 6’3 195
Albert Wilson – 5’9 195
Preston Williams – 6’5 218
Isaiah Ford – 6’2 194
Jakeem Grant 5’7 171
Ricardo Lewis – 6’2 215

A quick glance at the depth chart shows you we have a lot of big receivers, a LOT. We have a couple of diminutive receivers too, like Grant and Wilson but otherwise we have large quantities of bigger receivers, over 6 feet. As to where some of these guys are the depth chart are isn’t important, it’s basically just a list of who’s on the roster as all of this is subject to change. I do believe that until Preston Williams shows he’s fully healthy, our main outside receivers will be Parker and Hurns, and if Wilson is able to convince coaches he’s healthy enough to produce like he did the first half of the 2018 season before the hip injury, he should be our slot receiver. After that, it’s a Battle Royale and only a few more will survive.
I’d have to say that our receiving corps is a strength of this team and one of the few units that will likely remain most intact and least changed as least as far as the first 4 or 5 of the depth chart. The order may change, but I think those 5 guys are probably going to be the 5 guys on the chart come the start of the season. DeVante Parker had an impressive season and his stats don’t even tell the whole story. While his stats are impressive in their own right, the way he got there is even more impressive. It’s like a switch went off and and it was like every ball thrown in his direction was his. He made some of the most aggressive, contested catches routinely week in and week out from game #8 non. The chemistry that QB Ryan Fitzpatrick and Parker developed was really something. Fitzpatrick had so much confidence in Parker that he was just throwing passes in Parker’s direction no matter how tight he was covered because he felt Parker had the best chance to come up with the ball and he was usually rewarded for that.
Parker wasn’t the only one who impressed. Preston Williams and Isaiah Ford both made great strides. Williams was a regular contributor week in week out until he was injured week 8. Williams used his size and frame to make catches but sometimes struggled with the easy ones, but you can see there’s talent there. Isaiah Ford saw limited work early on but really started impressing from week #13 on. It’s nice to have a such a young WR corps, with talented vets like Parker, Hurns and Wilson to keep these guys in line. Like I said earlier, I think the WR’s are our best and most solid unit, and although this is a very strong WR draft class, I don’t expect us to be very active in the draft for WR’s. If anything, finding a strong KR/PR who could either be a RB or WR will be a likely target.
GO DOLPHINS!!

Best wishes to everyone during this difficult and scary period in our lives. I hope the best for all of you both in health and wealth. I hope those of you that still remain employed continue to do so and hope that those who have lost their jobs (even temporarily) hang on strong until they are able to once again join the workforce. I hope you are all doing what you can to stay safe and help your neighbors and friends.

McConnell just announced that they have combined some portions of the House’s bill with the Senate bill and that they are going to vote to pass it today and send it to Potus. The stock market is already moving up….SMH the market is run so emotionally.
Its panic driven and the whole US is in a completely absurd panic.
If you just lost $50K in the stock market and got out, thinking it was going to continue to go down further, wouldn’t you be a little emotional about getting back in, when watching it go back up?

GMs want the NFL to push the draft back to a later date. NFL says draft is still on as scheduled
——————————————————-
I can see why, they havent had the ability to go through the process they normally do leading up to the draft. Hardly any 30 visits before it got shut down, hardly any Pro days. I dont think its a good idea to push it back because it fucks up a lot of stuff moving forward, like little to no rookie mini camp, etc but i can see why they want it.
Ken – Is the flu not a virus?
The flu is a virus. Yes.
Some things have bacterial and viral versions, like Meningitis and Pneumonia
How many get the flu at least once a year? I don’t understand how they know you can’t catch COVID-19 again
So is chickenpox
there are different strains of flu (as there will PROBABLY be new strains of Covid-19 in the future as it mutates.) that is why there is no “cure” for the flu.
Just following logic would lead you to believe that the virus WILL mutate and continue to spread.
It’s already mutated from what I hear
If you can’t get it again
That will be huge
But I’ve heard a lot of conflicting stuff on it
So you guys have any links resources on it?
You can get it again, just not the same strain, the problem is that its mutating so fast there are new strains coming out pretty quickly. The scariest part of this virus isnt mortality rate, its not overall damage it does, its the fact they havent been able to get ahead of it on its mutations to create a vaccine for it.
If its mutations have slowed down, maybe they can get ahead of it or it will eventually kill itself off, but i havent heard anything different about its mutation rate since a week or so ago when i first got this information.
Four players who should be talked about more on draft day.
https://thedraftnetwork.com/articles/2020-draft-prospects-that-should-be-talked-about-more
Those guys are already on my list though im not as big on Niang as Lewis, and not as big on Wallace as Chinn, who i think shoulda been on this list.
Zuniga is a bad ass. Its crazy to me there were people sayiing 6th – 7th round eval.
Well, glad we cleared that whole thing up! LMAO!!
Lol
I have more questions.
Fuck it, I’m just boarding myself in
Piggy – Yes, and some people get chickenpox again later in life and get the shingles. Anyway, there have to be exceptions to many of these things but I guess as long as “All knowing” Cuomo said it it’s like Gods word. lol
Not that I am against this stimulus package in any way, but it is going to cost $9,200 per every man woman and child (legal and illegal) in the US to pay for. You know where we are going to get that 30K per family?
We are going to add it to our debt by borrowing it from China who is the largest holder of US gov debt.
They are going to invent a currency, didnt you read that yesterday?
Can we then call it the China Virus Relief Fund?
There are ways to generate revenue rather than borrowing
If they repeal the 2018 tax cut, that generates tax revenue
I read reports that it was supposed to costs 2.3 trillion dollars over the next 10 years
So if the bill costs 2 trillion dollars, the payback is staring us in the face
We just have to go back to the tax code of 2017
It’s hardly barbaric…lol
There are a lot of ways to skin this cat, so to speak. My problem is they are jumping first to one and they dont seem to be being careful about really thinking it through and seeing if there is a better, less impactful solution.
Well it’s emergency relief so some of it is necessary now
Other parts though….not so immediate
We have big problems with our legislative process
This isn’t a one time problem
Everything needs to be a huge bill
Mikey, same thing is true about the Flu, it also mutates but its slower and they have ways of predicting its mutations. They build the vaccine for it off the likelihood of the different possible mutations and which will be more prevalent. Thats why they have several different vaccines, the common one i think covers top 2 mutations, but they have other ones they can give in certain cases, like elderly or medical need because of weakened immune that covers more strains than just A and B. We cannot predict these mutations yet because they are occurring too fast, but probably they will find a way to predict it and get coverage out there for certain strains.
You have to also understand that this thing is in the infancy of what we know about it, it use to be an animal to animal strain, then it jumped animal to human, the scary part is how fast it mutated human to human, just like H1N1, it did the same, Bird Flu did the same, but they did it at what uis comparably very slow rates. All the viruses that are in animals generally mutate at some point to make the jump and they track these at the CDC they ones that make that jump always start a pandemic, how fast they spread and how fast we can get ahead of them to get vaccines is all about the mutation speeds
Oh, I do understand which is why I said it’s too early to know for sure either way.
Do you guys think we should change our logo as a shout-out to mutated Viruses

I HOPE is was Covid-19 that way I have a better chance of not catching it. (they still can’t say for sure if you have recovered if you are now immune).
—————————————————————————-
The Flu is a virus but it’s DNA rapidly mutates to where sometimes the vaccine used the previous year will not be affective so you have to get a Flu shot every year.
COVID-19 DNA shows that it hardly mutates (as far as they know now). So when you get it and recover, your body is prepared to fight it the next time you are exposed to it.
Immunizations/vaccines are usually kind of like a dead part of the disease with it’s DNA injected into you and your body fights it which creates antibodies to fight it again if you are exposed to the same disease.
To say it makes you “immune” to getting it again is an overstatement. Sometimes your body does not create enough antibodies after receiving an immunization. Also, if you are not exposed to a disease for several years, you need to get vaccines over again to keep those antibodies up to fight it if you are exposed. For my work I had to get vaccinated against Hep B which was a 2 shot series. A month later, I had a blood test done and found out my body did not create enough antibodies so I had to get the series over again.
For those who had a career in the military can tell you how many shots they got over their career. Just one, Typhoid was every 3 years.
IMO, having the disease and recovering will give you more antibodies than a vaccine to fight future infections but don’t believe it would give you total immunity for the rest of your life.
Dang, D beat me to saying this. LOL
Its so long it looks like one of his posts
You should buy him a keg of beer for that one
lol
Mike E:
The flu is a virus but every year there are different strains of it. That is why the vaccines work better some years and not others it is because they guessed right on the strain
OK, but this virus has mutated from animal to animal to animal to human to human to human so how anyone can be certain there won’t be further mutations or strains doesn’t sit right with me.
But that doesn’t change the fact that once you recover from the virus you have immunity to that virus
To that strain.
Mike, as I understand it (as a layman), it has to do with genetic coding and the number of segments inherent in the virus. More segments means the potential for more swapping within cell structures creating new variations and mutations. Some viruses are built differently than others.
It’s why some viruses like chicken pox or small pox can be vaccinated once and your usually good, but something like the flu which has numerous genetic strands require constant new vaccination.
So far data is suggesting COVID-19 is slow mutating.
Guess we will be competing with the Cowgirls for a center this draft since their center just retired after on 7 years.
Most of the new data on the COVID19 say it is a slow mutating virus similar to chickenpox, unlike the flu virus which has multiple segments of genetic coding (allowing for quick mutation) requiring a new vaccine every year. This information is fluid though, and what we really need is more data, so nobody can say anything definitively.
The death rate are seeing in the US is nearly identical to what South Korea’s stats show – 1.5%. With the majority of fatalities being aged and/or underlying health issues. They were the only country that got ahead of this and did massive testing (that I’m aware of), so they actually have pretty solid data.
As for the stimulus, now that we’ve enjoyed the political bias and histrionics of the great unwashed, it appears the relief will still be slated for the exact same timeline as was originally outlined, but with oversight and a more detailed structure. I read the original GOP bill and thought it was a good start, but I didn’t bother with the 1100 page house bill. No doubt both parties got some of their agenda through, but a bipartisan bill was always going to be better than just pushing through the 1st thing to come down the line. As it is, something this massive and rushed will still be filled with missteps and unforeseen consequences, but I think our reps did an amazing job getting this out as fast as they did.
I think they did an amazing job too
They will still be harshly criticized
Congress is the Rodney Dangerfield of public service
i also appreciated reading the stimulus bill discourse between Phel and Piggy which left bias and drama at the door. If we all conducted ourselves with that kind of emotional intelligence, differing opinions and political ideology and all, we’d be in a much better place as a society.

Phelon was a jerk!

Maybe slow mutating within the human to human strain but the jump from animal to human was extremely fast, and they usually use that as a prediction for how fast it mutates in general. Maybe its slowed down in the human to human strain but i had not heard anything about that when i was talking to a couple people i know, one a doctor, and one a biologist.
D,
I’m not sure what you mean with “…the jump from animal to human was extremely fast…”. Coronaviruses have been around for a very long time. And the sources I’ve been reading say current data is showing a comparatively low number of mutations. It’s not anecdotal. But as I said, this is a fluid situation, and the one thing we really need is more data. Nothing is definitive at this point.
And to address your post below, just because I know how points and ideas get twisted and lost in the ether in this place, I am in no way advocating getting the virus in the hopes you’ll be safe forever after that, lol, that is stupid.
Still if you hear anyone suggesting getting it helps you defend it later, do not fucking listen to those sources. I have even seen some places on the internet suggesting doing that to head it off the way they use to do for chickenpox. Just dont believe that shit, best you can do is not catch it.

——————————————–
I wasn’t targeting you or anything you previously said with that post below thats now a post above lol. So no worries there.
As far as the jump from animal to human, what i mean by that is that this virus has been around but it was a strain that was only animal to animal transferable, that strain was not contagious to humans.It however mutated to a strain that is/was animal to human. This is how the spread started within humans, still not transferable to human from other humans. It then mutated again to be a human to human transferable virus, and then some sub mutations have occurred since. On potential mutation would be from contact to air born, which hasn’t happened as of yet.
Same thing happened with Swine Flu, and bird flu, they were tracked before they mutated to animal-human and then human-human but it took a while for it to jump stage to stage so despite the pandemic outbreak it was relatively minor because they had time to prepare for it. This one mutated fast through those stages and as a result we were not prepared.
Once you have it your body builds antibodies to defend against it if you get it again. You can get the same strain again but with very minimal symptoms. However if this strain mutates you can get it again very severely. Just like flu. Every year you have to get a flu shot
The reason you have to keep getting the flu shot year after year is because the flu virus mutates. If it didnt you would only have to get one flu shot per your lifetime
Every year scientist map out flu genomes too see how it mutated and then they put the right formula in next years flu shot to guard against it. Or so i read
No, thats pretty much spot on.

Reply
What i meant about the mutation from animal to human and then human to human, fast and it leading to a feeling the further mutations will be fast was to say thats how they generally project futher mutations in the speed of the previous ones. This isn’t the only such virus we can expect to eventually make the jump, they track a lot of ones like this.
Also, in general Kong i dont expect much you say to be anecdotal as im pretty sure you respect what i say in general not to be either. I am sure you come to your conclusions by research and/or factual sources you trust. I was just saying this is what i have heard. I have both a research biologist and Dr. in my family and thats my sources. I also dont think what you have read and what i have read contradict one another, i think its just i am right about how fast it WAS mutating, and likely you are right at the rate its CURRENTLY mutating.
I surely do like your data better anyways, and im glad thats the case now.
My daughter says she’s social distancing. I think that means she bought her own bong and doesn’t share with anyone. We can all learn from the young.
Id be happy if more people we hitting the bong and staying to themselves, less panic and a lot more push to stay inside and eat nothing but cheetos. Id be ok with the cheeto shelf being empty instead of bread and milk
I believe that’s called bogarting actually. lol
LOL, you are right, God i havent heard that term in a long ass time.
LOL D, me either, I haven’t smoked weed in over 30 years. I may have smoked enough before that to justify stopping though. 🙂
D,
Thanks 🙂 I didn’t think you were targeting me with your post about catching it on purpose, I only clarified my position because people have a funny way of correlating things, and it came directly after your response post to me, lol.
I’m not disputing or advocating anything, I’m more interested in just passing information along.
At this point, we don’t really know the exact origin place or time of the virus so it’s hard to know the speed of mutation. It was at first thought to be one seafood market, but this –
“…later assessments have since suggested that this market was unlikely to be the single source of the coronavirus outbreak, as some of the people infected with the virus had not been frequenting the market.”
So it is possible that it was being passed human to human for some time before being discovered and may not have been fast moving in that sense. We’ve seen date estimates ranging all over the place concerning the actual start of the virus.
Additionally, some types of cov (alpha and beta ranks) have always been transmittable between certain animals and humans, so it is potentially (and perhaps even likely) one of these types that mutated to go human to human which means it didn’t have to go animal-human then human-human quickly as it was one step instead of two.
The types of cov that can go animal to human previously caused the SARS outbreak and the MERS outbreak and the current virus’ genome sequence is 88% the same and it shares a significant portion of DNA with both of those. Although to be fair, since there are 4 ranks of cov, it is possible the new virus shares sequencing and dna with all ranks.
Anyhow, like I said, I’m not out to prove myself right or anyone wrong, I’m just talking data. Cheers!

I smoked so much once and got so stoned i though i felt like a marshmallow on a chopstick. I swear i was so numb feeling i felt like my flesh was poof around sticks (ie my bones). Oddest feeling i have ever had, but so vivid i remember it to this day.
Being a marshmallow on a chopstick sounds like a very tenuous situation BTW
Germany’s death totals are really low even though their number of cases is high. I think they need to inspect Dachau to see if the Germans are up to their old ways again.
Forget the trade deficit. We need to stop China from spreading all these newly mutated viruses. Most if not all the world outbreaks in the last 20 years seem to have come from there.
lol, and that was anecdotal. I have no idea if it’s true or not, but SARS, birdflu, H1N1…
D – The clearest memory I have of being stoned out of my face and really enjoying it was in High School hanging with a bunch of guys I had never hung out with before. I was a Junior, a couple of them were Seniors and a couple Juniors too. This guy Gary was a Senior and he had a ’68 Chevy Impala 2 door, looked an awful lot like this one.
So we blow out in his car, I think there were 5 of us, and we’re sitting there smoking for like a half hour, just keep lighting up. Then he drives to a Dunkin Donuts, we all chip in, and he goes in and buys a box of Dunkin Munchkins. Everyone is wasted, including Gary. He gets back into the car, and says “Guys, please be cool, take a couple at a time, don’t be animals”, he opens the box and everyone just grabs as many as they can, I have like 3 in my mouth but I can’t frigging eat them because I’m laughing so damn hard. We all were. This evolved after much laughter us getting out of the car and laughing which turned into one guy throwing a munchkin at Gary which misses but sticks to his car. Then all hell breaks loose as it becomes a munchkin fight and poor Gary has about 20 or more Munchkins stuck to his car. Needless to say, we didn’t go back to school that day, we left for lunch and never came back. Sad thing is I can only think of 3 of the 4 guys names and one of them died a bunch of years ago. Funny stuff though
At least you got to hotbox a sweet ride. First time I hot boxed a car with friends it was in a broken down Ford Escort hatchback.
Nothing says cool like a Ford Escort hatchback.
It was kinda busted up Kong, not as perty as the one I put up there, it was 11 years old and not well taken care of. Didn’t diminish the fun in any way though at all. Yeah, the Escort was not a cruising to pick up chicks kinda car, but probably quite effective as a hotbox though. Less cubic inches inside for the smoke to dissipate.
Oh yeah, when the windows are dripping, you know you did it right.
um…to clarify dripping with condensation from the smoke, lmao.
Lol yeah thats a good stoned story lol.The one i was saying was almost one of those so stoned things went from great to oddly wrong after the last hit. People say ya cant OD on weed, and i get thats true, but i have gotten “over stoned” on a couple of different occasions and while its not panic worthy, it does make you feel weird. Got so stoned once before i somehow convinced myself i was nauseous and it was the worst nauseous feeling i have ever had.
LOL @ ‘over stoned’. I am a sort of stoner to this day, and I can say I’ve definitely been over stoned before. I won’t do edibles because I have had full blown panic attacks 3 times after consuming. And I’m not a panic attack kind of guy, lol. It’s the only time I’ve ever experienced that sensation. I don’t know if it’s the way my body is taking in the chemicals or if it’s that the dosage isn’t as controlled, but no brownies for me.
I think those two times were the two times my mind got overpowered by the weed. Like i convinced myself i was the Michelin man and could feel my bones. I couldnt get my damn legs to cooperate even because i didnt have muscles, i was just poofy stuff. I cant even explain it right enough to do it justice.
I have a very low tolerance for THC so it doesnt take much for me to tip over that turning point. I can go from right as rain to way too much before i even know it
That is funny as hell, Mike.

Its cause those fuckers eat anything…if they catch it they butcher it in the streets and people come by buy it and eat it. No sort of regulations on food in their markets.Have you seen pictures of the Wuhan food market? its pretty fucking disgusting
I haven’t, but now I’m intrigued. I’ll probably google that when I get home form work, lol.
I have to say, I think the weed today is much stronger than when I smoked. Is that true guys?
The really strong shit is way more plentiful and you have a lot of growers who are perfecting their hybrids to produce strange and powerful stuff. I dont smoke it anymore but when i stopped it was already getting there. I know people that still smoke it and they have been smoking it for a long time, and they see same as you.
Out here in CA it’s not even close. The weed is way stronger now. In the 90’s we had some green and an abundance of what we called ‘Mexican weed’ (no offense intended, it’s just what it was called). It was brown weed that was pretty much crap, which as teens was the majority of what we got. You can’t even get that brown weed crap anymore. The lowest you can find is home grown green.
Kong, one time while i was stoned, i got the munchies and my brain told me to eat the weed. I did but im glad it tasted like rotten assholes when eaten straight up or i could have been in a bad place.
LMFAO!
We call it KB down here, its strong as fuck, when you break it open it smells so strong just pungent, and it taste just as friggin just as bad.
LMAO
that must have been some shitty weed
LOL, my little girl just ran into my office here and said her brother just called her the “C” word. They are 7 and 11 lol, so i was like omg what the heck. I said what’s the C word, she was like *whispering voice* “Crap” and i was oh thank god, i was like shit did i say Cunt around him and he picked it up lol.
The worst smelling and harshest, strongest weed I smoked was called Thai stick. It was like ropey weed wrapped around a stick. I have no idea how that would compare to today’s weed. I also smoked opiated hash once too. That was strong as well.
hash is the heroin of thc stuff, i only smoked it a couple of times and it was fucking strong.
Suh signed with the Bucs for one year and $8 mil. Guess Tampa is all in with Brady.
He was there last year too after McCoy left.This it was a one year about the same amount.
I want Brady to crash and burn, but probably not more than Belichick does. lol
I would actually have no problem with the Pats losing the division and Brady being Super Bowl MVP. Evil Genius has always been the one I hated.

Oh yeah, Kush, and other names, Mowie Wowie is a type of the same stuff. You look at the bud and it has crystals all over it. Even that shit cant stand up to what they got now.
We also called that crap stuff “shake”.
One of the most pleasant conversations in a while…..WEED.
And lot’s of disinformation. I try to listen to the docs and science. Without testing and tracing we will never be able to discern for sure where the hotspots are nor will ever be able to control or isolate COVID without total shutdown for weeks, perhaps months.
Louisiana is blowing up. Mardi Gras was the perfect incubator. NY is blowing up. WA is blowing up. Etc, etc, etc, etc.
The models of South Korea, Kentucky, state provinces in China, Japan all provide a recipe for success. Yet, I fear the U.S. and the approach so far (unless radically altered) will be brutal. Statistics help tell a story when matched with behavior.
Oh…and wet markets where is there is very little sanitation or discrimination between animals, feces, and humans is a recipe for these types of animal to human transmission. It’s basic nature. Viruses are just genomes that fuck with people.
Kentucky? What are they doing?
They took an early approach (albeit with no testing since none available) and locked down everything upon first news vs Tennessee which blew it off. Kentucky has already flattened the curve and TN is still shooting up.
Wow that’s incredible
Lol have ya been to Kentucky? there are people in dem dere hills that havent seen other humans outside their families since they came over here from Ireland many moons ago.
Yeah Mardi Gras happened right before the information hit about social distancing etc, and it is definitely a hot spot for it.
It’s blowing up.
Kishna — got an announcement from a place give too. It’s a genomics research place. Announced that is suspending research and as of next week will be the biggest Covid-19 testing site in the state. Hard to complain about that…. only wish happened before.
Like in January at same time South Korea was afflicted….exact same time. The S Korea curve has flattened. The statistical modeling shows our country projection will be the worse yet.
South Korea handled it well. And yeah we have some stormy weather ahead.

The dolphins traded a Ot and a safety to draft…an Ot and a safety
Always good to know a few people in Kentucky, cause they can hide a body for you where no one will find it 🙂
One of the greatest shows of all time, is set in Kentucky. Justified
Its a remarkably beautiful place but when i say some areas are remote, and some of the people in that remote area dont look like they have seen outsiders int heir lifetime, im not joking at all. We support a lot of rural hospitals out there and that shit gets scary. Only scarier place i have ever been to are the remote parts of WV (no offense Herd)
To be honest with you, I doubt COVID has reached the hills or “scary” places. I would think it would be limited to the metropolitan, highly populated areas. I was only speaking on a state to state, KY vs TN statistical plane.
Yeah i picked up what you were putting down 🙂 i was just having a little fun poking at the state of Kentucky.
All you have to do is look at the middle of this country vs the coastal, highly populated, highly traveled cities and the statistical prevalence of COVID via region.
I can believe what you’re saying. Justified is based around the rural parts of Kentucky (not filmed there, set there), and the lead character Raylan is brought in to the main Kentucky field office to help deal with the local populace because he’s from there. I think one of the lines from the show goes like this:
“Yeah, google doesn’t have the entire world mapped out. There are places like North Korea, and Raylans home town.” lol
Don’t fuck with Raylon. Unless you’re Boyd.
Damn straight.
Don’t mess with Kentucky. My Mom, Ma and Pa were from there. Huge family as well. And nothing like this.
Biscuits and gravy….lol
or is that hash?
Hash would be potatoes and corned beef.Looks like sausage gravy and biscuits to me.
Sausage gravy…..oh my.
You might die….. but you’ll die happy. 🙂
What part? Near the WV side?
Rockcastle County. About an hour or so South of Cincy. Coal mining country.
Have been to Elizabethtown, which is right over that way, and a few places near the WV side, and i few places inside the WV side. That part isn’t quite as bad as the areas over near WV.
D — trust me it was Hillbilly country….. even if PC term is “Hill Folk.”
I’m braising beef right now
Bc fuck cows – that’s why!
I’ve done a lot of stuff I wouldn’t tell my parents
But I never ate weed
Wtf D
*shrugs* Never know what the stoned mind will convince you is a good idea.

Lol i dunno abotu all that, BUT i do know that i kept my ass puckered the whole time i was up there because i wanted to make sure i didnt give any false signals that i might be flirtin. Squeeeeeel like a pig! Oh shit sorry Piggy, dont wanna cause you any bad memories.
Making a pork stir fry tonight. We love pigs!
We have already had braised pork belly, pork belly spring rolls, sausage and gravy biscuits and not pork stir fry discussions. Piggy needs to never pass out at the Blog get together.
So one night me and a “friend” let’s say, were you know, listening to some tunes, and my roommate got home. Literally crashed in through the apartment door. Freaked out my “friend” by yelling “my headband’s too tight!!”
Seemed he had gotten into some chocolate mescaline (can I say that on here?) Dude was fried crispy.
He dives onto the floor in front of the sofa where we are “sitting” and yells. “You gotta help me!”
My g/f is burrowing underneath me in fear as this guy’s eyes are bulging outta his head, and he’s hyperventilating.
I’m like “What man? Whattya want; me to DO?”
“Don’t touch it,” he says, as if I would’ve anyway, dude looked like he would’ve electrocuted me if i did.
“It’s making a GROOOOOOVE in my fore head, man. Ya gotta help me.”
“Why don’t you just take it off ?” I asked as my g/f is crawling over the back of the sofa.
My roommate is screaming, spit flying everywhere, sayin, “It’s holding my fuckin’ brain in!”
I couldn’t help it. i busted out laughing. There’s a naked girl cowering behind the sofa that he did not even acknowledge, and he’s freaked out that his headband is both crushing his skull and holding his brains in at the same time.
Ten Years After is playing on the stereo at like 11 or i think the neighbors would’ve called the cops.
So the girl stands up and says “Take me home!” Lookin Fine I might add.
But Joe is kneeling on her pile of clothes in front of the sofa.
So I yell, “Aspirin. Aspirin shrinks the swelling!. Take it with a beer!” And i grab him behind his tricpep and drag him into the kitchen where he takes 3 Bayer and chugs a PBR to wash it down.
10 seconds after he burps some foam back up, he says quietly, all mellow like, “Thanks, brother, that was a close one.”
LOL
LOL, wow, it looks like I missed out by never having tried mescaline.
Naples — stuff gets whacked at times. Dude didn’t even pay attention to the hot naked chick.
Priorities.
If your brain is oozing out around your Jimi Hendrix neon rainbow headband, who cares about girls?
D
I also refuse to ever eat that stuff again. The only bad times I ever had with bud was when I ate it. Made me nauseous, but more than that it made me stupid, not high, not happy, just stupified, staring motionless like a bull toad on a ditch bank.
Lol, covid10t. They’re calling Biden a covidiot for coughing into his hand on national tv.
LOL @ covidiot.
One thing I’ve learned about myself since this started, I touch my face constantly. It’s been a real struggle to modify that behavior, especially while at work.
Damn, missed getting aid by THAT much
I didn’t know we had a brand new military! All brand new and the biggest ever huh? in 3 years huh?
fuck learn to read!

This is about the best you can hope for on Mescaline.

Missed getting AIDS? Didnt know you were targeting it.
Mescaline was easily my favorite drug. I swear I want to throw a big mesc party. Who wants in? lol
I was really deep in the party scene here, but mescaline just wasn’t around much that I knew of. I wonder if that was a my crowd thing, a Sacramento thing or a west coast thing.
We were ok though, we had plenty of shrooms and acid, lol.
Krish – drugs just seem to everyone together. Kumbaya. 🙂
Nitrous Oxide a/k/a whippets. Each hit lasted only about a minute but man it was an intense buzz for about a minute
nananananananananananananananananannananannananana
You have done them Rock! You never forget that sound
yes! that’s the noise. Obviously an experienced whippet-er lol
Now that is something we used to do, have nitrous parties. Whippets were fun, and you could usually get 3 or 4 good hits out of the cheap cans.
One time we scored a tank of nitrous from some dental place and had a real nitrous party. We would fill up one of those giant balloons and pass it around along with other stuff. Great time, although in retrospect very stupid on a number of levels, lol. That was one of those times you look back on and are just thankful nobody died.
We used to get the cartridges and had a seltzer bottle you put the cartridge in and inflate a balloon and you would get a lot of hits off of that. My friends father figured out what we were using the soda maker for and smashed it with a sledge hammer
I never saw it that way. That’s a good idea.
I should say that’s a clever idea, not a good one, lol.
I was in my 6th hour or so of a 14 hour trip on LSD when we decided to go to the Albertson’s Supermarket down the street to get some whip cream cans to huff. We wound up standing in the dairy aisle and inhaling every can but six, which we walked to the front and purchased.. LOL
I was able to isolate and inspect in detail every one of those na’s
Been there done that
YOU HUFFED WHIPPETS FROM THE CAN WHILE TRIPPING ON ACID AT THE ALBERTSON’S IN PLANTATION TOO!!??? omg LOL
Well not that part but going into a store and doing so many whippets off the shelf until they kicked us out of the store
I can’t believe there was a conversation about Kentucky and I want involved! While damn family going back 4 or more generations is from there, I’ve lived here for about 25 years or so. Rockcastle is actually close to the Tennessee border, near Pulaski where my folks are from. This place is different, no doubt.

misspent youth. Unfortunately you can probably name any drug that was potentially available from 1980 – 2000 (and a few after) and I have partaken
so funny — your time frame
i know it was great for you.
but by then I was a dad.
So when you look at clips of the omg 60s and 70s, imagine me in that milieu.
The sixties !! Epic!
with extreme miniskirts, riots in the streets, the Viet Nam War, Free Love, bra burning, draft card burning, Love-ins, shoulder length hair, hip huggers, bell bottoms, guys lookin like Abbey Road, Concerts all weekend at like stock car racing arenas where 25000 young adults were 100% doing MDA, hash pipes, shrooms, mescaline, passing doobies to complete strangers, and chanting “gimme an F.”
And everyone had fun.
I mean everyone was smiling and laughing and enjoying each other.
I really wish those times would return.
I don’t know what you guys see in Derrick Brown, he’s athletic, but doesn’t use it much to pass rush. He got pushed all over the field by Alabama, his strength is subpar.
The only lady i know from Kentucky says Hit for it.
As in “hit fixin tuh rain cats and dogs and me in just a white tee shirt.”
For the record. i have never huffed nor have I ever done any nitrous except in race cars.
I don’t get Wirfs either. He can move the pile and pass blocks good, but speed rushers give him trouble and we need an LT more than an RT. I’m definitely not taking him at 5, 18 is Ok though.
If we draft Tua we will need a RT more than a LT
Then let’s just not draft him.
Easier to get a RT than a LT
We need a quick footed blind side protector who can shut down the pass rush.
We could get a guy who is a LT such as Thomas, Wills, Jones, or Jackson or maybe Becton and convert him to the right, right?
even if you do draft Tua, you better invest in a top LT to guard your back up QB’s blind side.
oooh touche
Ok, Tua, Mekhi and Wirfs in the firfst 😉
Mekhi is the LT I want. He barely breaks a sweat out there. He’s not that athletic, but he so damn big, and strong, and has a massive wingspan, that he can handle the speed rushers too. Not sure why they have him blocking down so much.
LMAO @ Rock on acid cleaning out the whip cream aisle! That’s fucking hilarious! Wish I could have seen that
Mike I’m in.
Do they even make mescaline anymore?
yah
Probably Costco has it.
Ha! I don’t have the first clue as to where to get it now, in the neighborhood I grew up in it was as easy as going to the street corner a couple of blocks away or to the park. Anything you wanted was available, and if they didn’t have it on them, they would get it and meet you. That’s city living for ya! I honestly would love to do it again, I had some great times on mesc, really funny memories.
LOL
“Mescaline clean up on aisle 4”
Just get Steve to go out in the desert and get you some of the cacti species that it comes from.
Naples:
Not always easy to switch between RT and LT. Lots of muscle memory involved and switching sides can mess up a player. I mean people have done it but others have really struggled with the transition
I say that all time, because it’s true!
Great minds or something like that 😁
I make no such claim but I think you qualify for sure
Tongue squarely planted in cheek on my account
Pretty cheap imo
I just realized it’s a fake. Whoops!
It surprised me both the cost and the team
LOL, that was fun! Love it
Nice Rube Goldberg
I can’t believe this is what the Dems have. Again this isn’t Republican rehtoric, I can’t believe and Democrat would want him to be their guy. I know this is cut and spliced together too before that gets brought up, but I have seen other full recordings of him and he is borderline senile acting.
So is Trump
If the two of them square off in a battle of lucidity
We are more likely to collect a pint of drool from the floor than a compete sentence
This putz can’t even complete a thought, doesn’t know where he is at times, thinks he’s running for senate… that’s totally the same as Trump GMAB.
Steve I think Becton is kinda clunky with his feet. No doubt he has the size and athletics but his feet don’t look really good and that’s a really hard thing to improve one.
I know, and that’s what I’m saying, but his wingspan is so wide guys still can’t get around him. When engaged it’s all over. At worst he’d be a great OG.
Try, Pulaski is one of the hospitals with our software.
The only issue I have with Brown is you didn’t see his brutality every game but more often than not, you see it. When he is all out he is a monster and that’s against any level of competition.
X was easily the most fun “best” drug I ever tried. Other than the dumbass kids would take too much and the shit they added in killed them (meth is often mixed in) there was no negative to that drug other than a hangover type feeling the next day. The hangover didn’t last much more than a drinking hangover either.
I knew the ones to stay away from, no heroine, no coke (because I knew I’d like it too much), no meth (other than what might have been in the x tabs I took which wasn’t much because i knew the source. I don’t care anything for the opiates or other pharm type drugs.
SBJ….You guys are a bunch of junkies!
Mine was complete curiosity. I am proud of myself and how I managed it though. Might have been better to never do it, but considering I did, how I approached it was pretty responsible
Looks like they are going to have a special on the science channel tonight in about 39 minutes about the Coronavirus outbreak. Dunno if any are interested but thought I’d pass it along
Phelon – I was a just a very curious person. I also liked having fun

Until next year when people are calling us the Browns because we passed on a QB even after amassing all those picks so we could do so.
Im 99.9% sure we do not pass on a QB. Trade up is the only question i have, is do they care about any one of them in particular to go up and get them. The nature of the position though is that you try to get “your guy” and im sure they have an idea who their guy is.We dont, we have their actions toward a certain candidate, but there is so much smoke and mirrors to where, even if it looks obvious it may not be.
Still if it Burrow, or Tua, and they thunk they have to trade up to secure him, its gonna happen, if its not and its Herbert, they may feel ok sitting still. I dont think the 5th pick has much of a chance not being a QB or part of a trade up for a QB. It doesn’t make logical sense that we would have done all this to make that move and then go……nah.
I ‘know ‘ we take a QB #5! or use it to trade?
They still might pass and roll with Rosen / Fitz?
It’s not beyond the realm of possibilities!
The only thing i can say is Rosen is the one that stops us from doing it. We have enough picks, i dont think we trade back, If tthey see more in Rosen than we have so far, then its possible they really dont feel the need to get a QB. Thats the only “if” and like i said from what we as fans have seen, there isn’t much chance of that. We dont see him in practices, we dont see him in the QB room, we dont know what they really think of him, so its possible, its not likely.
I dont think they roll with Fitz and Rosen and put off taking a guy at 5 and wait until next year, because planning on a “what if” is not smart. Rosen being the guy they want to lead out team is the only thing that makes sense if we pass on QB.They really cant afford to delay getting a QB so they can have him learn the system for a year and then be ready to start this ship moving in the right direction.They cant put off for another year getting that started.
There is a lot of buyers remorse going on around here about a guy who we dont even know who is. I find that weird. I mean guy, there is going to be nervousness over taking a guy with such a high pick, but its one pick or hell even maybe 3 picks, but thats not going to make or break us. Gotta trust the process a little.
I personally think we stay at #5 and take Tua!
The only thing about him that should stop us is the health questions!
Before his injury he was the #1 QB and that usually doesn’t change after watching 3 months of film.
Just my 2 pennies
But I don’t see this front office getting all tweeky and throwing picks away to do anything!
I kinda feel the same as you, but there is for sure going to be competition for selecting Tua. We wont be the only ones with information saying “clean bill of health” and the Chargers for sure are a team thats going to want to go all in on a starting QB. Their team is complete for the most part, outside of a QB, so they will throw some picks at it for sure.
I think we have to at least consider trading up with Detroit, because thats the most likely team to consider trading. We have an in with their coach, but they are still going to want at least two first and a second for that trade. I think they are willing to do that. Chargers might be willing to do even more. Still they did their homework on the other guys, so if it comes down to it, maybe they dont go with a trade up, but really they are the only ones that know if Tua is THE guy and if he is, im dure they do whats necessary to get him. I dont think its twitchy, sometimes it just is what it is to get what ya want.
Happy Birthday TryPod!!
Happy birthday sir.
Just a reminder
The same people who are saying Tua sucks. Are the same ones touting Mayfield!
Now he’s making commercials and throwing interceptions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😉
Tua’s on field body language, his poise, how he handles pressure and how he trwos on the run is all reminiscent of Wilson, so to me there is only two concerns with taking Tua. Can they coach him to be safe with taking hits and trying to extend plays, and does that change ruin his game. If i as a coach feel i can manage to coach him out of those riskier traits, ie make a smart gamer out of him, then im all in, because he is the best QB of the draft. The guy got hurt trying to be a winner, not because he’s injury prone. If he can keep that winner drive but just be smart about it, he is going to be really good.
I wanted Mayfield in that draft. I never said Tua sucks, but his health issues concern me. I’ve said that from the start. I think Mayfield took a huge step backwards last year but he still has plenty of time to do better, and he probably will. Maybe he needed a dose of humility.
people are saying that there’s no way Tua will be there at 5, they may be correct, the Giants and Detroit could trade back and another team jump us if that’s indeed where miami wants to go, if so it looks as if miami may have to trade up to get him, which i’m against.
some of the sportscasters say Tua is the best college qb ever!
I think t here is a strong possibility that the Chargers try to move up and take him. I’m also not 100% that the QB that Cincy takes is Burrow., they might would be interested in Tua as well. With their team as ready to go as it is though, i think they would rather take Burrow since he is more ready made, but who knows. Detroit obviously has a connection with us, but im not saying that helps, but all things equal it might would. Im feeling though, to be certain to get him, we have to trade up.
So Phelon, Doggy – Which guy are you, Barnes or Elias? 🙂
I’m probably more Barnes. While I am non-interventionist, I don’t have a pacifist bone in my body.
I hope we only use one pick on a QB, that way if he is a bust in a few years, we didn’t use other picks and potential good/great players we could have drafted to get him. We could just cut bait and move on knowing we still had the other assets we drafted on the team contributing.
But thats what im saying, moves like that are moves you make knowing thats a possibility. As far as the team goes, unless we start leveraging future picks and hurt us more long term, whatever we do this year isn’t going to hurt us much.
You have to trust the FO/Coaches and their process to make the determination if they like the prospect that much,.

—————————————————-
Everything i have seen reported says he is ahead of schedule and that things look like they are fine. I think he makes a full recovery but it might be that he wouldnt start this first season, which i think they had in mind anyways injury or no.
D, I can “hope”, cant I? Get a franchise QB AND keep all the other picks? ..LOL
Yeah sorry sometimes im too analytical ie a dream killer, sorry, dream away lol.
I hope for the very same thing Bookman, which means it ain’t happening!
D – It’s not so much about his timetable as to when he’s ready, it’s that once he starts playing all out like even in practice, is that injury going to keep bothering him and/or will he develop other injuries because he’s favoring that leg/hip? How many times have you seen things like that happen, where an athlete has one injury, favors it and then starts injuring everything else because the mechanics he’s using while moving aren’t natural? It’s also hard to say he’s not injury prone. I don’t see how he’s any different than Carson Wentz really. Now if they change the way they play entirely, will they be nearly as good as they were before? Tough question.
No i get you, but look at Teddy B. He seems to be back 100% and his lower half of his leg was practically torn off his body lol. What im saying is we dont understand the ins and outs of all that, but the people making the selections do and they have doctors that certainly do. they arent going to buy a broken toy when there are other non-broken ones available.
D – I didn’t get to see Teddy B. play this season at all. I know the Saints won when he played but I don’t know if he was playing the same way he played before the injury. I agree though that none of us know the full extent or the impact the injury has/will have on Tua. It’s possible even medical experts don’t really know either. If the medical staff is happy with the range of motion and the MRI’s etc than I would expect him to be a hot commodity and a target for us.
Kind of surprised that we’re #27 on the W/L under over at 6 wins. I suppose we only completed phase 1 of the rebuild, but I think we did pretty well in that regard. I’d be surprised if after the draft it doesn’t climb to 7.
Yeah, it just hard to predict what next season will look like. On one hand you look at it and what Flores did with so little and say, certainly there will be a lot more to get this year with so much more already added, but then again there are still so many questions left to answer, QB being a big one.
My guess is it wouldn’t be shocking if we finish 8-8, which also plays to my worries about not taking a QB this year giving up whatever we have to to get our guy. What about next year, what happens if we do finish 8-8 or hell even better, what then.
Flores is going to coach to win, the players want to win, its not a stretch to thing we do significantly better than last year. Then we have to give up even more to trade up to get a top guy and we have less to work with and most like would have to sell off future picks, which is the worst scenario imo.
Those numbers aren’t a true gauge of how a team will play, they’re just a number to get a split of money on under/over. Basically a national perception. Once I start betting the over, they’re going to have to raise it😉

I bet Carolina hopes he plays, since they just signed him to be their starting QB.
Oh nm i misunderstood what ya had said. I did see him though, Saints is the local team down here so all of their games are covered and i didnt keep my Sunday ticket last year.
Gotta go with what your people tell ya, its why im kinda pushing the narrative of just roll with it.lol
I don’t fully believe that Miami is looking at Tua. If not Burrow, I believe Love is the fallback. And if they don’t like what they see, Lawrence next year.
Cant bet on Lawrence next year though too far out to make your plans around that.
I don’t agree, but if that’s the plan, it better include acquiring at least another 1st for next year.
I think Lawrence will be even harder to trade up and get than Burrow. I can’t see any team passing on Lawrence if he has a decent year. There are another couple QBs who may be worth going after, but it’s hard to pass up a bird in the hand, so to speak.
^ this
My thing is this, what if number 1 overall wants Lawrence? What if Lawrence gets really badly injured. What if he decided for some crazy reason to return for Senior year? What if we cant get the ammunition to trade up next year, where are we getting that extra pick? are you thinking someone will give us their next years first for our 5? if so wouldnt be using our 5 on something else smarter? You see what im getting at, too many variables to say, of we for sure can get Lawrence next year. What if we are 8-8 and pick 15th?
What if the QB class is weak (and it seems to be a lot weaker than this year) and Lawrence is the target for a lot of other teams?
The list can go on and on.
If they’re all in on Lawrence, they may decide to move a lot of picks to next year.
What if the QB we draft this year gets hurt? What if we feel it’s too expensive to go after Burrow/Tua because they aren’t the right guy?
You don’t trade a #5 pick for a future years 1st, but a 2nd would get that, there’s lots of ways to acquire it. We could trade X to get a 2021 1st…
Do I want to hold out for Lawrence? No way, i want Tua/Herbert this year, but I’m not making the pick.
