Me too.

Stuff like this is so hard for me to talk about that I read everything everyone writes, then write something, then delete it, then write something again, then delete it, then give up. I must have had over a dozen replies to you all that never hit the Post button.

I actually avoid these father topics that come occassionally because I don't have anything to share. I enjoy reading about all of your fathers, but sadly my brother and I are broken men from our father's abuse and betrayal.

Reading your posts have showed me that you are a wonderful father. People so often repeat the same mistakes that they grew up with. I am happy that you were able to broke the cycle. it could not have been easy.

Some things in life don't get fixed, and nobody with a fancy psychology degree helps these things either. In life you absorb the blows, take the pain, and protect your loved ones from the pain you know.

But like I said, I enjoy the tales all of you share about your fathers.

I am not suggesting you let a beast anywhere near your children. I support your position.

I meant that I am better because of my dad. I wish you had that kind of experience too.

I also meant that I can see you are not your father when it comes to dealing with your wife and kids. I applaud you for breaking the mold. It is a hard think to do. Even when youngsters vow they will not make the same mistakes their parents made, all too often, they fall into the same trap. You are a superior man.

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
