Sounds like it was an illness of some sort as it says he passed away peacefully. Cancer maybe?

I haven't heard a cause.
I was just reading about a former Nashville Predator player who took his own life and had cte. He was in his 40s. I really enjoy the NFL and NHL but I am concerned about the players and cte.

A lot for Tua, but so tough to find a QB that they really didn't have a choice. It's not like they are drafting high or turning things over to Mike White.

I'm not sure which metric is more useless....preseason NFL or preseason NHL.

Seems with the Giants things only matter if they go badly. My big thing every season is the Oline. No Oline means no playoffs. This season we have a patch work online that kind of reminds me of 2000. Not huge in demand guys but some vets that may be able to get the job done. Now is the time for optimism
NCAA issues suspension and show-cause penalty to Jim Harbaugh for Michigan recruiting violations
Harbaugh served out a self-imposed suspension at the start of last season (the first of two) and is now not allowed to coach in college for four years.

Unintentionally, Harbaugh became Captain Sean Connery in The Hunt for Red October after he told the USSR he stole the nuclear sub. Harbaugh may be rich, but I don't think he can return to the NCAA.

I had a feeling he would win. He is a really good hoops player as well.
I think he was expecting this which is why he jumped to the NFL. At this point I don't think he cares anymore.

I believe you can only do them in the 4th quarter and only if you're losing, and then you have to declare that you're going to do one. Then you line up and run them the same way.

Hot take:
By the time Harbaugh is done scratching his NFL itch, the NCAA will no longer exist in its present form as members of the SEC and B10 will have split off to form their own athletic organizations with their own rules.
He has a four year show cause penalty. With the rate things are going in realignment I'll take the under in terms of anyone being left in the NCAA's offices to actually enforce that.

theres no bigger waste of time than watching pre-season football BUT i'm so happy to see the Jets wearing these uniforms.
And sad that the Washington Football Team abandoned the Redskins uniform, that was one of the best in the NFL. Its not like the uniforms were offensive, just a name and logo change was enough. Morons.

I also miss those uniforms.. in your opinion what was offensive about the logo(?) Or do you feel it naturally had to go, if the name was retired..?
I never really understood why an Indian's profile was offensive, same for the feathers. There was no mocking, or sacrilegious, intent in the feathers. They were matter-of-fact decoration.
William & Mary did a similar (logo) redesign, after the NCAA claimed that a pair of feathers was "abusive & hostile". Which always seemed like ironic accusations from the petty tyrants at the NCAA.

Well the name definitely was offensive. The logo was not on the level of Chief Wahoo but it definitely was inappropriate.
Anyway they should have picked a better name than "Commanders" and should have kep the old uniforms. They were timeless.
I don't think it was offensive but is there another ethnic group could you base a football team on? What would you call it?
