Another Tua Tagovailoa Concussion Puts Career in Jeopardy

If he retires, he gets nothing of the huge new contract that he signed, but if the team doctors say he can't play anymore, then he gets whatever was in the contract that deals with this type of thing. In other words, he's probably playing again next week.

I don't know, man, Bryce is kind of looking like that bust that the football talking heads have been saying. I still don't understand what the hell Canales was thinking by not having the starters play in the preseason. Come on, my guy, it's not like you have a team of all star vets that is coming off of a Super Bowl season. You got a bunch of players all new to each other with a QB that needs as many reps outside of a practice setting as possible.

Frankly, I was shocked to see the score when I finally tuned in.* Not so much because I thought that Colorado was any good (they aren't), but more so that Nebraska isn't so terrible that they could beat up on Colorado.

Yeah, we're getting a lot of rain right now and some gusts of strong wind, but nothing too bad. The fine folks of Wilmington are probably already under water with much more to come today and tomorrow. After eastern NC gets all of our runoff from the Triangle, that whole part of the state will be under water.

And that debacle comes on the heels of the Uruguay players having to jump into the stands to protect their family members from the Colombia fans at the end of their match in Charlotte. Good job, David Tepper*, in providing no security in the stands for that game in your stadium.
