Struggling to score? QB just can't get it done?

Goodell messed with the wrong dude...
Dallas owner Jerry Jones has slowed down, if not impeded, contract negotiations aimed at extension for Roger Goodell, per @mortreport and me

Seeing the Saints on the upcoming week's schedule has to be the best feeling for a QB.
Brady with a solid day at 302 yards passing, 3 TDs, and 30 points.


















Oh wait, that's the halftime line.

When I was a kid, like 8 through 14 ish, i'd get migraines a lot and really bad. If I got one, I was done, had to go home and just sleep it off...after puking a few times. I'd have a doctor's note to miss or leave school any time I got a migraine, but it was legit.

By high school they had mostly stopped and/or were very manageable...but I still had the doctor's note. I probably missed/skipped school about 30-40 times per year, all excused just cause I didn't feel like going and I'd stay home by myself and play video games all day. :lol:

The Saints have given up the 6th most passing yards in the history of the NFL through 2 games.

Honest questions for the Weas:

You've never had a terrible cold, strep throat, stomach bug, the flu, pink eye... anything that could be contagious where you couldn't go to school or in to work on a day you were scheduled to be at work?

If you say these things have never happened, immediately submit yourself to the proper people to have genetic material harvested so we can formulate the cure to every annoying, time-wasting disease known to man.

or

You go to work/school when you have one of these things in which case you're a jerk that doesn't care about the health of those around you as long as you maintain your perfect record/streak, with all due respect. ;) Your oath probably keeps you from doing this anyway...

Ive had the flu once in my life. Woke up for an 8 am exam on a Friday morning in college. Halfway through the exam I started to get sweaty, nauseous, and thought I was going to shit myself. Blasted through the exam in way less than than I should have, and spent the rest of the day/night making sacrifices to the porcelain gods. By Sunday afternoon I felt like a million bucks.

Ive also had pink eye once in my life. Funny enough, turned out to be in the summer going into my senior year...the morning of my senior pics. My mom didnt want to reschedule since she had already paid and didnt think she'd get refunded etc, so my senior pics are of me, with pink eye.

Otherwise, Ive been pretty damn lucky. You could probably sell my serum. The worst I feel in any given year is the day or so after getting my flu shot. Other than that, nothing. Although, this is likely to change with the new little one and her being in daycare. Kids, walking petri dishes.

I will say, I find the stress our society puts on individuals to make it into work to be a huge flaw. I definitely saw it while in residency. If someone was sick, they were to come in and work until an alternative could be found/accommodated. Unfortunately for me, if Im running four busy ORs and cant make it in, thats 60 or so patients, 4 surgeons, and a dozen or so staff/nurses whose day is now cancelled. It just doesnt happen because its expected that you show up. Similarly, in the winter, you better have a car that can get through the snow. Saying youre stuck aint gonna cut it
