Have not heard that on before. Thanks for posting. Definitely worth listening.

So many have made the ultimate sacrifice so that we can enjoy our freedom as well as others around the world. Today is for honoring the fallen and the families who loved them. Also an enormous thanks to those who have served or are now serving who put their lives on the line to protect us all. Memorial Day is a solemn day (or should be) to recognize the enormous cost of freedom. Memorial Day (originally kn Originally known as Decoration Day[1]) is a federal holiday in the United States for honoring and mourning the U.S. military personnel who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.[2] From 1868 to 1970, it was observed on May 30.[3] Since 1970, it is observed on the last Monday of May. Many people visit cemeteries and memorials on Memorial Day to honor and mourn those who died while serving in the U.S. military. The first national observance of Memorial Day occurred on May 30, 1868.[5] Then known as Decoration Day, the holiday was proclaimed by Commander in Chief John A. Logan of the Grand Army of the Republic to honor the Union soldiers who had died in the Civil War. Official recognition as a holiday spread among the states, beginning with New York in 1873.[7] By 1890, every Union state had adopted it. The world wars turned it into a day of remembrance for all members of the U.S. military who fought and died in service. In 1971, Congress standardized the holiday as "Memorial Day" and changed its observance to the last Monday in May. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorial_Day#References

Did not see this posted. Sorry if I missed it. Former Panthers great Luke Kuechly, whose career was cut short following a series of concussions, will be on Capitol Hill on Tuesday morning [5/23] for a congressional briefing to bring awareness to traumatic brain injuries. Kuechly, a five-time All-Pro linebacker, will join ex-Panthers teammate Jeff Byers at the briefing, organized by the Congressional Brain Injury Task Force. Byers, an offensive lineman who played two years in Carolina, is the co-founder and CEO of Momentous, a nutrition company that works with pro and college teams and the armed forces to develop products and protocols aimed at reducing the impacts of TBIs. Kuechly, who retired after the 2019 season, said he wants to help people — athletes, military personnel or otherwise — who have experienced head injuries. Kuechly is an investor in Byers’ Utah-based company and has done work with Q-Collar, a device worn by Kuechly late in his career designed to reduce concussions. Interview with The Athletic: Tuesday’s remarks in Washington: “I want to help people that have had similar experiences as me, whether it’s guys that get them or guys that come back from it in sports or in the military. I had such a unique experience with it playing football. I’ve done quite a bit with some different companies since I got done playing that not only do stuff with sports but the military as well. They have similar experiences to the guys that played. They’re just like us in the sense that they love what they do. They want to do what they do really well and they want to have the opportunity to do it as long as they want to, and not have a reason why they can’t do it anymore — with the primary reason being head trauma, concussion-related (issues).” What he might have done differently: “I wish I would have been a little more educated on my end, on what I could do to help myself. I think it’s a delicate situation to me because I think RV (former Panthers trainer Ryan Vermillion) and our doctors gave me every opportunity — they did everything right. Everybody wants to look for somebody to point a finger at but it was nobody’s fault. I just wish that I wouldn’t have been as hardheaded about it as I probably was.” What that hardheadedness looked like: “I understood the severity of what was going on, especially after the first one. It’s like, all right, if I don’t let myself get better, then I’m not gonna provide our team any value. If I keep getting messed up, then I can’t help us win. I’ve gotta be smart because if I’m not, then I don’t help anybody. I don’t get to play. I don’t get to help our team. And long-term-wise it’s not gonna be good for me. So I always understood all that. Sometimes I just wish I would’ve understood this is super, super important. It’s not like I rolled my ankle and I’ll just suck it up and deal with it. You can’t really do that.” Retiring at 28: “Everybody knows I love the game of football. I love the Carolina Panthers. I loved the guys on the team, the fans. For me playing football is the best job in the world. You wake up and you’re with your buds every day. Everything I enjoyed doing football included. Being with my buds, being around people in the building, whether they were coaches or trainers or equipment guys. I got to work out. I got to eat well. I got to hang with my buds. Everything that I loved was with football. It was freakin’ awesome. It was the freakin’ best thing in the world.” What prompted him to say it’s time? “I just think I knew. And once I knew that I couldn’t do it anymore — I’m either in or I’m out. I don’t do stuff halfway. And I knew once my brain and my heart said we’re done doing this, I was like, all right, well I’m no good to anybody if I’m not able to rip like I should (and) play the game like I want to. If I can’t go out there and just rip it, then I shouldn’t play.” His health and fitness routine, which includes 7-9 hours of sleep every night and a strength or cardio workout 5-6 days a week: “I played the game. It is what it is and now I’ve just gotta do the best I can to live a healthy lifestyle. I love fitness. I love working out. I love to eat. I love the nutrition side. That was such a big part of my life for such a long time that I enjoy it. I think that’s important in your overall long-term health.” Running his first half-marathon this month in his Cincinnati hometown: “I ran a half a couple of weeks ago. I was under two hours, so I’ll take that for the first one. I don’t think I would do a full, but I would do another one of those halves. I need stuff to train for and get ready for. It’s like the perfect thing for me.” https://theathletic.com/4542850/2023/05/23/luke-kuechly-panthers-head-injuries-capitol-hill/

Finally finished this...is long but broke it up into several sessions. Awesome stuff!! Thank you @Matthiasfor posting.

Wasn't she like 2 or 3 girlfriends/ fiancées ago?

Rogers will prob sit out because he wants to.

Curious beer choices there? Paid to post that? Props for supporting the military.

Rogers will love Spartanburg.

Meaning he was not too impressed with the NO staff???

Gruden is working as a consultant in NO...specifically to help Carr and help the coaches develop the best system for him. No link...heard it on Sirius. NO...the place where slime goes to slime.

Was just listening to Sirius NFL radio while in my car. Moving the Chains with Jim Miller and Pat Kirwin. A Panther fan called in and of course wanted DHop and asked if they thought the Panthers had the money to get him. Jim and Pat said that DHop is not interested in raising another young QB. But, Jim also said that the Panthers do not need him. They love the Panther WR room. They have been rating different position groups on each team and next week it will be WRs. Jim told the caller that he would be really surprised when he hears their rating/eval. Jim loves Mingo. Jim said the Panthers ahve realy set Bryce up well.

He will go to an obvious contender. Not coming here.

You'd think that wouldn't be a problem with a 6-foot-5 quarterback.

He could be getting paid to tank. Prob does even know.

According to Goodell...who gave an interview today...he said the TNF flex games would be rare, if used at all. We shall see.

Heard part of an interview today with Goodell. He said there is no evidence of an increase in injuries in TNF games. He said in fact, there were fewer injuries in those games.

Before: Now:

Nothing says that a returner can't bring it out..fall asleep and someone will have a 100 yd TD.
