    OT: Brian Wilson dead

    "Wilson was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder and mild bipolar disorder. Since 1965, he regularly experienced auditory hallucinations in the form of disembodied voices. Wilson referred to the voices as "heroes and villains" that contributed to "a life of scare"...According to Wilson, he...

    OT: The Shine Is Off Coach Prime

    Deion has a hereditary clotting problem that has killed family members in the past. He has lost two toes and parts of his left calf (the clots cause compartmentalization). He had most probs in left leg but the right was bothering him. Colorado knows he could die or have limbs amputated at any...

    OT: Sly Stone dead

    He also played with Prince (and Drake is his nephew). Graham was a Jehovah Witness and got Prince involved - he got deeper into it as he got older Sly himself was another musician who had young roots in the black church (they usually parents who brought them in). I don't like Pentecostal...

    Good. The heavy lifting days are waning. Imagine driving your car to within its limits a few times a week? That's what heavy lifting is like

    OT: Sly Stone dead

    Good band. Difference between Sly's soul rock band and the junkie rock bands is that most of the Sly's band is still alive and didn't OD, crash vehicles etc. Only other dead member is Cynthia Robinson and she died of cancer at 71 (2015)

    FB Recruiting 2026 Florida Linebacker Justin Edwards commits to Rutgers Football

    Well many players could have left for greener pastures after 2003 season but chose to stay. RU needed NIL to keep the good players but they still didn't become mercenary about it. Plus knowing where you stand on a team helps. Leaving for Ohio St or Miami might get you on the bench...

    FB Recruiting 2026 Florida Linebacker Justin Edwards commits to Rutgers Football

    From watching players with their families and hearing them speak, I think there are good parents who like RU's character polishing vibe and encourage their kid to go to RU. They feel like their kid will get an education and not get caught-up with a lot of ding-dongs, Schiano recruits the parents...

    OT: NJ HS track meet of champions

    Interesting - could be part of the reason. When Beckham wade his circus catch vs Dallas the NFL was having meetings that week about allowing or banning the kind of high stick gloves Beckham was wearing in Dallas game. Of course they allowed the gloves and that's why receivers make one handed...

    Football Rutgers Football QB Ajani Sheppard to enter the Transfer Portal

    I recall a couple from 2010 (Dodd vs Savage) and 2011 (Dodd vs Nova). I think those years really got on Schiano's nerves for many reasons including QB drama. I think he is now primed to avoid any QB controversies like the plague. 2010 saw Savage disintegrate, and Dodd won BE Player of the Week...

Something...

    OT: Jim Marshall dead

    My first posters were Marshal, Eller, Deacon Jones and Lanier. I wore #70 one year because of Marshall (thankfully I moved on from DL) PPE was an amazing crew off the field as well. Miss those old time players

    OT: Milk smell in car

    milk has casein in it and its like glue - a reason people use enzymes. Might have to pull the carpet in places

    Football Rutgers Football QB Ajani Sheppard to enter the Transfer Portal

    "I always felt Nova was a capable game manager who, unfortunately, at times let his ego get the best of him and went rogue." It can be very hard to play and practice a certain way for years in HS and then try to break conditioning. Nova had a strong arm - in HS he could blaze a ball into triple...
