Aguayo with another shank!!

This guy was a second round pick that Tampa traded up to get, even though he was known to have a weaker leg. The pick was praised by many commentators even though the pick was dumb.

No, my comment wasn't tongue in cheek. The league requires players to wear pink, they don't just "encourage it." It has nothing to do with selling merchandise.

The NFL shouldn't be used to promote social issues. They should just play the games.

The fact that they are constantly wearing pink for breast cancer and never blue for prostate cancer shows they care nothing about men. This is a feminist attitude and the NFL should not be promoting it.

You do realize the NFL must continuously pander to female and minority groups due to special interest pressure, right? You can't simply have a white male-dominated business in this brave new shitty SJW world, ya know! The NFL is only a product of our new pozzed existence. Imagine if they truly advocated for white males. They'd be railroaded faster than you can say Kim Davis. Congressional hearings, media blackouts, lawsuits, the like. Gotta keep signaling to the (((overlords))) to prevent getting Shoah'd.

This is why I still give them a pass, and still continue to watch. I'd prefer the company of only white, yet I get along fine with nonwhites when the situation demands it. Bide your time, bide your time...

After his monster 181-yard performance on MNF, the game's second best TE, Greg Olsen, is on pace for 1,650 yards. Highlights from his amazing night...


Through 5 games, he's averaging a little over 100 yards per contest and at 513 yards, he is currently 3 yards away from leading the enitre NFL in receiving yards. If healthy, he's a lock for his 3rd straight 1,000-yard season.

Must suck to be a wideout on the Panthers because it looks like Olsen is first read most of the time.

Kyle Fackrell had 4 solo tackles, 1 assisted tackle, 1 sack and 1 forced fumble -- and he did it playing only 14 defensive snaps!! That's outstanding production. He looks like the successor to the all but washed up Julius Peppers at OLB. If so, the Packers could well have a four-man snow patrol at linebacker, pretty cool.

In the game against the Eagles, the Lions started putting in Graham Glasgow at guard on some plays, making for four white players on the O-line. There were some plays where Zenner and Burton at fullback were in together, so at some point the Lions may have had seven white players on the field at one time, which for Detroit is remarkable.

Here in Dolphinland, there is a small glimmer of hope with head coach Adam Gase. During his recent press conference, he basically blamed the all sumo O-Line for Ryan Tannehill's recent struggles. In fact, 3 sumos Dallas Thomas, Billy Turner, and Jamil Douglas have been released. Just judging from the way he speaks, it seems like he knows this coal black roster that Joe Philbin, Jeff Ireland, and Mike Tannenbaum put together is crap. Unfortunately there is no indication that Tannenbaum's job is anything but safe so even if Gase realizes these players suck, there is no promise that he's going to get better players to work with as long as caste-stooge Tannenbaum is supplying the groceries. The previous GM, Dennis Hickey seemed a little more white friendly which is why Tannenbaum showed him the door and brought in his own "in house" puppet black GM, Chris Grier. It pisses me off to know that Hickey wanted G Mitch Morse and Tannenbaum overrode him and drafted sumo DT Jordan Phillips. Phillips was in no way worth a second round pick. He was considered a project from day one. But again "dat upside"

I just hope Gase is smart enough to go against conventional wisdom to draft a black quarterback next year just to appease this DWF fan base. One of the worst aspects of who Mike Tannenbaum is, was the sleazy, slimy way he ingratiated himself into the Dolphins organization and whispered into that idiot Ross' ear until he was able to get absolute power over the team. Such a scumbag. Trading up in the 3rd to take Leonte Carroo (a project WR who has yet to even see the field) when they could have drafted Nick Vigil (would have looked nice lining up with his brother Zach) was awful. Restructuring Suh's contract to pay more for cap space we didn't use (could have brought in someone like Evan Mathis or Alex Boone) was also ridiculous.

Well, the Dolphins now have all white O-line backups, (assuming Pouncey is back at center) waiting in the wings to take over, so some small movement foreward, but now Cameron is struggling with concussion issues.
