So basically still bent over a barrel. There just isn't a satellite dish lying on the ground right next to the barrel.

This is so sad. Not sure if it was posted elsewhere.

I read that ,while I do feel for his wife to come after the truck driver is a BS move and smells of a lawyer looking for a big payday. Again a tragedy happen to from all accounts a nice young man. There is something called personal responsibility that seems to be lacking in this lawsuit.

Ugh, it's more expensive than DTV for non-subscribers... I might as well subscribe to YoutubeTV during the season for Thrs night games.

That's where I'm at now too

Jeff Okudah was available for a 5th rounder?

Bucs’ Pro Bowl LB Devin White has in fact requested a trade, as @JennaLaineESPN reported. Bucs do not want to trade him, but he wants to be traded as he is coming up on his fifth-year option.

yeah, because he wants more money than they want to give him. They still have him for this year at 11.7m. Worth an ask, but probably not going to amount to anything for us.

“Many questions remain as to why the truck driver did not avoid hitting Dwayne given the highly visible activity in the area before the impact and the fact that the other drivers did not hit Dwayne,” Ellsley said. “The truck driver’s cell phone records have not yet been disclosed. The report also notes that the driver refused to provide a blood sample to the police at the scene and still has not provided the alcohol test results.”


Why not provide a blood sample? Why not provide the test results? Smells more of guilt to me.

Wtf ? Would have taken that deal.

Yeah, but he is the third overall pick in his fouth year, big salary for a guy who has done very little. Worth a try if you have lots of cap space but big gamble if you dont

he probably got a lawyer and is following legal advice.
