Certainly you trust the local cops when it comes to misdemeanor drug possession charges.. No? Ahh, c'mon.. What's wrong with spending some quality time with hardened career criminals in the South Carolina state penitentiary over a little weed? You might even have some quality time picking up trash chained to your peers along I-26..

For his sake, I hope he's not. For my sake, he can have at it. You never realize how crucial distance is to a marriage until you don't have it.

Conversation with my wife usually involves me getting accused of not doing things she's asked me to do that I have absolutely no memory of ever being asked to do. Sound familiar anyone? I'm convinced all wives have the same playbook..

It is 50% in their DNA and 50% passed down by their mother, sisters and other femaliens.

I didn't really love the idea of drafting him. How would he handle sitting behind Sample and Uzo? Does he contribute on special teams? It would be fun to have Randy Moss around, but I don't think he was a great fit as a player.

The "conversation" for most wives comes in the form of a thought...She thought about something, and you were supposed to read her mind. Sometimes, they will even give you a mind-reading hint, like: "I really don't like the color of our shutters", what that actually meant was she wanted to go to Home Depot (usually during an NFL game) and have you debate colors for an hour, bring home samples, and then have you paint them all in the next 24 hours.
I used to tell my ex, simply: "Write it down. Have you ever written down something you wanted me to do, or needed me to get, where I haven't obliged". It usually shut her up, but she would still stomp around the house made that I didn't read her mind.

I would have liked to see Hunter Bryant or Thaddeus Moss come in to what they could develop in to. We’re light at TE, so it could have ended up working well for both parties.
But...they’ve both signed elsewhere.

Now, what is so hard to understand that when she says out loud that the kitchen needs cleaning that she means for YOU to clean the kitchen? It is absolutely clear what she means cause sure as hell the "cleaning fairy" doesn't live in your house

Why leave any room for misinterpretation? I don't say to a WR: "Run some route and get open". I would tell them where to go and how quickly they need to get there. Men are good at tasks if the task is clear. If it isn't clear, who's fault is that?

If I ever have a wife, I appreciate the recent posts to remember...burried deep in a place she will never look. Unless she values initial opinions of past undrafted Bengals free agents.

These guys just have no self awareness. I realize I’m the pain in the ass in my marriage. My wife is a saint for putting up with me. Lol
