That's a little rough. Gil is sharp as a tack for an old man and knows these players like the back of his hand. Huff is as senile as the day is long and sounds confused every time he opens his mouth.

If were gonna bash people on Sirius...lets talk Sheinbox. God awful windbag...

Nonstop on this, nonstop on that, every interview is tremendous... lol he used to annoy the piss outta me but I guess he's kinda grown on me. Or I've just learned to tolerate him would be a better way to put it.

Despite your positive sentiment, what you said is expressly ageist.

I don't mean to be annoying, but as an aging services professional, I feel compelled to advocate. If it were racially insensitive I suspect we'd all say something. Just trying to spread a positive message:

Elderhood should not be seen as an inevitable period of decline leading to death, but a stage of continued personal, interpersonal, and spiritual growth. It is also a stage of life at which we achieve the greatest differentiation, older adults are all unique, and should be respected as individuals. The more we marginalize our elders, the more we rob them of the fulfilling respectable lives they deserve. I know that was not in any way your intent, but it is a stereotype that is constantly propagated in our society.

Sorry for being the PC police.

This Is pro sports, not an office. Even the most talented of nfl quarterbacks are done by 40. Weeden will most certainly have a shorter career than an equally talented quarterback who is 6 years younger. When teams are looking for a guy to solidify a position for 15 years, and theyre using valuable draft picks to acquire the player, they'd be stupid to go with the older guy.
