Around the NFL: NFL Offseason

I'm going to put this here but a pretty cool story. If you live in central Maryland and have listened to 105.7 the fan in the mid 20teens you probably heard a kid named Mo call into the show. Mo sadly passed away in 2020 and his story is amazing.

Last night at the Sports Emmy's two productions involving Mo won Emmy's

The 105.7 The Big Mo Gaba Show: https://www.audacy.com/1057thefan/topic/the-big-mo-show I put the link if you want a listen and

The video is about 15 minutes long. Definitely worth a watch and a share to some one.

Keep a tissue hand. I'm not crying you're crying.
Thank you for that!!!

Raiders DE Carl Nassib has come out as gay.

Wonder if he's the first active NFL player? I remember somebody did it in the NBA - Jason whatshisname - I'm forgetting because he was more of a reserve than Nassib is.

Nassib must be comfortable with the environment Gruden/Mayock have fostered to come out publicly, good for him. Hope this doesn't turn into some unnecessary drama.

Eli Manning is getting his jersey retired by the Giants?

I mean I get it, bc two Super Bowls is a worthy accomplishment - but the rest of his non-playoffs career doesn't stack up.

I mean I get it, bc two Super Bowls is a worthy accomplishment - but the rest of his non-playoffs career doesn't stack up.He beat an undefeated New England team at 16-0 and beat them again to win not 1 but 2 Super Bowls. It is an absolute given the Giants would retire his jersey considering he brought them 2 Lombardis.

With 2 Lombardis and 57,000 career passing yards think the Hall will be calling soon- as they should.

The Giants have to retire his number.

I wish we had a QB with 2 that weren't great the other seasons. Still 2 rings.

But, he also had a cannon for an arm and put up lots of yards for a pretty long time. Extremely humble too.

So this is Team Number three for him? Browns, Bucs and now the Raiders, if he gets cut is it because he's gay? My point is no one cares, it's football and has nothing to do with sexual orientation.

Hopefully more players will be comfortable to follow his lead until it's commonplace and truly is no big deal.
