OTOH it would be kind of hilarious if the NFL mandated that every helmet design had to incorporate a football

also, replace the superfluous third cutlass with a flagpole

brownie, Friday, 21 February 2014 18:00 (ten years ago) link

there is a very real danger that without the football on the helmet the players would be mistaken for actual pirates.

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 21 February 2014 18:01 (ten years ago) link

I'm not mad at the third cutlass, at least it's on theme

xp: lol

sent as gassed to onto rt dominance (DJP), Friday, 21 February 2014 18:02 (ten years ago) link

fuck that replace the football with two cutlasses side by side to make a football shape
with little cutlass laces
and cutlasses on the cutlasses
CUTLASS

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Friday, 21 February 2014 18:02 (ten years ago) link

even with the football on there it's only a matter of time before some white guy shoots a black player assuming he is an actual pirate.

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 21 February 2014 18:04 (ten years ago) link

they should make a cutlass-shaped helmet

sent as gassed to onto rt dominance (DJP), Friday, 21 February 2014 18:04 (ten years ago) link

no one should have more cutlasses on their helmets than the Raiders

the raiders raider should have a movie franchise

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 21 February 2014 18:08 (ten years ago) link

All teams need at least one player who wears an eyepatch.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 February 2014 18:09 (ten years ago) link

preferably the quarterback

sent as gassed to onto rt dominance (DJP), Friday, 21 February 2014 18:09 (ten years ago) link

depth perception is a hugely overrated quality for a qb

this is some crazy shit. gotta love the browns. this would have been so awesome. and probably actually a good move??

Efforts to contact the 49ers continue

The local sports radio is going insane about this

I love Ray Ratto so much:

has a head coach ever been "traded" before? this seems totally unique, tho i guess it's a matter of framing (some head-coaches can force their way out of an unhappy situation; just never heard it called a "trade" before).

Daniel, Esq 2, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:29 (ten years ago) link

You may be forgetting a fellow named Gruden

polyphonic, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:30 (ten years ago) link

was gruden traded? i thought he forced his way out of los angeles.

Daniel, Esq 2, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:31 (ten years ago) link

No, he was traded by Oakland for two 1's, two 2's, plus almost 10 million.

polyphonic, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:32 (ten years ago) link

wow! i did forget that.

Daniel, Esq 2, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:32 (ten years ago) link

And then Oakland used those picks to build their unstoppable dynasty.

polyphonic, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:32 (ten years ago) link

haha.

why would any team trade away this guy?

Baalke apparently doesn't love working with him, and Greg Roman is sitting there waiting to be promoted.

polyphonic, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:34 (ten years ago) link

Harbaugh, that is.

polyphonic, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:34 (ten years ago) link

harbaugh apparently doesn't like working with 49ers management, either. there's a crazy theory floated in miami that steven ross is letting this year go by, hoping to clean house next year and lure harbaugh for the following season.

seeing how well that went for ross the last time, i'm sure it will work out splendidly.

Daniel, Esq 2, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:36 (ten years ago) link

If you've got issues with management in SF, I can't imagine Miami seems like a greener pastures.

Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:42 (ten years ago) link

haha. WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY?

Daniel, Esq 2, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:45 (ten years ago) link

for an unbroken period of 40 consecutive years, the miami dolphins have been the NFL's best run organization, and most consistently successful franchise.

Daniel, Esq 2, Friday, 21 February 2014 22:46 (ten years ago) link

more like shit pastures

miami constitutes greener shit pastures.

Its difficult to make the Browns organization look like a well-oiled machine, but somehow Miami has done that.

Prince Kajuku (Bill Magill), Friday, 21 February 2014 22:55 (ten years ago) link

cleveland sports talk is going bananas with this news. they're acting like it took place and now they're wondering if Harbaugh can win with Hoyer

christmas candy bar (al leong), Saturday, 22 February 2014 03:54 (ten years ago) link

really bad 40 time for Michael Sam, probably drops him a round or two.

Clowney can't even stay healthy at the combine, I think teams are probably sick of this act from him now.

Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 25 February 2014 02:41 (ten years ago) link

Chris Kouffman ‏@ckparrot -- This Jim Harbaugh thing with Miami in 2015 strikes me as very real, IF Steve Ross manages not to scare him off.

whooooooooooooo. we gonna win all the super bowlz.

The evolution of the word is pretty unfathomable and even tragic to many old people, but it's no less real for being resisted by the sort of people who furrow their brows on news specials. There's something healthy about it, in any case. It acknowledges the situational nature of language, that context matters.
In this respect, the NFL's proposed rule is hilariously wrongheaded. It plucks the word out of context, out of history, fixing a precise value on the use of a racial slur. Players are penalized 15 yards for saying "nigger"—not five or 10, or 20 yards, or a down, but 15 yards. Worse than holding, not as bad as intentional grounding. The rule is meant to stop a mountain troll like Incognito from looking across the line of scrimmage at a black player and calling him "nigger." But if such a rule were ever implemented and interpreted with the NFL's usual literal-mindedness, it would only end up policing and punishing more young black men who grew up with the word as a term of endearment than white men who would wield it with malice. Does anyone really think that a black player congratulating a teammate with "My nigga!" is using the same word that Richie Incognito was using?
