Another day, another lawsuit. Pills, thrills and bellyaches.

Ted Wells is sharpening his pencils and pricing luxury boats as we speak as he readies yet another investigation.
I'd rather represent the plaintiffs on contingency. Potentially a much bigger fee AND the opportunity to perform the legal version of a colonoscopy on Shula.ifmanis5 said:
ESPN is so in the bag for the league it's not even funny. They'll let Reiss say his bit, but other than that, it's basically Lester Munsonville over there (that they present that disbarred asshat as a legal expert pretty much says it all). Putting my tinfoil hat on, it wouldn't surprise me at all if the relationship was a not-insignificant factor in Simmons getting the boot, and in such a classless fashion. I'm done with that site.Marciano490 said:
INTEGRITY OF THE GAME!
"Our record in those 50 years was always done with a lot of class, a lot of dignity, a lot of doing it the right way"
Shula said in his speech, via ESPN.
"We didnt deflate any balls"
You stay classy, Don

I know that no one in the Pats organization will do anything, because the reality is that every single team is as guilty as the next. Professional football treats it's players like cattle and no matter what the assholes in NY say, they simply don't give a damn about player health.
Regardless, Shula needs to be ridiculed and humiliated for this on general principle. How do we get Deadspin or some other outlet to destroy him?

Hey, we are the NFL. If we want to dole out controlled substances like they're Tic Tacs, we will do so without hesitation. If we want to practice medicine across state lines without the proper licenses, we will do so without hesitation. We are bigger than the law.
The YourTeamCheats guy emailed me back. He was happy to add this to the site. He was especially happy about the Shula part. Made my day.
I was stuck in the airport in Dayton Ohio yesterday and I had a conversation with some nice people who live in Dallas. This is an anecdote and it is college football but I'm somewhat confident that it applies on some level to the NFL.
The ladies brother was a star defensive end for TCU in the 1970's and a few things happened to him that were horrifying. Head injuries were routinely either not diagnosed or ignored. His treatment for concussions (or what he later on realized was a concussion) was pain pills. He was dealing with a broken collarbone (two weeks old) and something torn in his shoulder (she didn't remember what it was but I assume a torn labrum) and the coaches weren't sympathetic. He was forced into action against UT. Some of his neighbors are former NFL and college players and you can always tell who by the way they walk. Many of these football alums are only in their 40s-early 60's and they have had multiple hip and knee replacements. Their bodies are broken and their minds vary by the day.

Brett Favre was a junkie extraordinaire. No one gives a shit about stories like this, period.JimD said:
