PSLs were legal robbery. Between that, hiding concussion truths, how they treat retired NFL players, and Rodger freaking Goodell, this league can eat a dick. I wish fanbases had enough people to boycott PSLs.
Although having said that, I just did some rough math off the top of my head. Let's say the Jets and Giants sold 50,000 PSLs at an average of $3000 each, that's $150M towards the stadium costs. Assuming 16 games in a season at the Meadowlands and 90,000 at each game, that's 1,440,000 tickets per season. You'd only need to put $10 on each ticket for ten years to recover close to the same amount. I guess PSLs have the advantage of giving you a significant amount of short term cash though.
He shook my hand breed tub and walked away
My boss coached with Tomsula at Catawba College. He hates the guy, but he is an unbearable prick himself so...
My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating
Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about
You're an unsufferable douche yourself, so according to the transitive property Tomusula and your coach are probably both stand up guys.
So does he get fired after his first season or midway through his second?
If you've never in your life shaken your head in disgust at "These kids today," you're about to. Trust us.The San Francisco 49ers are in the midst of a complete franchise overhaul, resignations and retirements changing the entire character of the team. As part of that, the 49ers have consulted with Stanford University researchers to figure the best ways to reach the millennial generation.Their answer: let the players play on their phones.At first blush, it seems completely counter to every tough-guy football cliche ever: taking smartphone breaks? Really? But the more the 49ers considered it, the more it made sense, and as a result, the team takes breaks every half-hour to let the players check their phones, post status updates, and the like.“The [experts] are telling me about attention spans and optimal learning,” new head coach Jim Tomsula told the Wall Street Journal. “I’m thinking, ‘My gosh, we sit in two-hour meetings. You are telling me after 27 minutes no one’s getting anything?'"Thus, the breaks, in which players can, in Tomsula's words, “go grab your phone, do your multitasking and get your fix.”The 49ers have also switched to digital playbooks and cell-phone alerts for team meetings. So far, no one has missed a meeting, the team reports. It's a small change, yes, but a significant one. So when you see a 49er bringing his cell phone into the huddle this fall, you'll know where it all started.
Yeah I'm sure their phones will only be used for work related stuff.
