Antimatter has been Captured!

Yeah. They claim they have captured antimatter in a vacuum using magnetics. These guys are obviously way smarter than any of us, but I don't see how you know you have captured antimatter (if it in fact has no mass). I skipped antimatter theory in college so you'll have to excuse my ignorance.

Antimatter has the exact same mass as normal matter.

The difference is the "charge" of the anti-atoms.

Instead of Electrons (- charge) surrounding the nucleus, it is Positrons(+ charge).

Instead of Protons (+ charge) in the nucleus, it has Anti-Protons(- charge).

Both matter and anti-matter would have identical neutrons (no charge).

All of our theories say that if our universe were made up of Antimatter, gravity and chemistry would behave exactly the same.

So it does have mass.

I bet that was an old show.

The Hadron Collider is rather new and what was used to collect the antimatter.

off topic: IDK about you guys but I don't trust much of what I see on the History Channel anymore. They sensationalize too much, I think.

show is pretty recent. they rehash some episodes every year whenever they get new confirmed info. it's got 4 seasons on netflix streaming.

      Philly's defense is great and they run the ball a lot and control the TOP (and they certainly will vs us - this is a big mismatch), so even if Bryce is at his best, I doubt he would have a chance to crack 300 passing yards.  Be damn impressive if he does though, but it all just depends on volume, efficiency, and most importantly... not turning the ball over.

      Even with Cam I don't think it would have been a hard sell. He always loomed larger than life, but most people that understand football understand the reality of the game. One wrong hit, one wrong step, and a career can be over. It's the thing I've been frustrated about most with every GM we've ever had, including Morgan to this point. We never really developed the QB room. We relied on our starters and when Jake and Cam fell apart, so did the franchise. That's the one position that you can't really afford not to develop a plan B, but we do it with regularity. Dalton wasn't supposed to be a serious threat to Bryce's job and Jack was never a threat to be anything at all. JMO, but we should always have a young guy we're trying to keep on the bench with at least 2 years in the system. If they're not getting it, move on, but always keep rotating guys through. It seems like 2-3 years really is the magic point for QBs to either get a handle or not. It's probably not going to happen, but I'd really like to see that 3rd QB emergency slot become a permanent place to work on developing young QBs. I think it could benefit every team in the league because it's so hard to carry 3 QBs on the roster with all the turn over during the season due to injuries.

      Agreed which is why I mentioned it and framed it as being certainly an eat crow moment for a lot of people myself included. I'd love to see him shock the league like that. I think the direction the conversation went immediately after is a prime example of how the topic of Bryce Young in general has become so bitter and contentious. The fanbase is split between people who want to see him look like a first overall pick over the course of multiple starts and not just against inferior defenses and people who apparently have low expectations and are just fine with him not looking horrific. But that's not how the NFL works and that's not why we drafted him.
