Very much off topic but then invoking Barry Sanders doesn't really have much to do with the Eagles, Vikings or even the Rodger-less Packers team of 2017 either-

Rocky as I read your comments in this section I was noticing how much your English has improved from when you were at 15. It is better than many for whom English is their primary language. I had to correct my spelling at least a half dozen times in this post.

I loved your analogy of the Ford Escort complete with worn tires and rust. (I can see anyone from the Upper Midwest of the U.S. using it.) Lost in your excellent example is the understanding that anyone who would be adept at sticking the M240i engine into the Escort would be able to make ALL the necessary modifications in order for it to fit and run the car. Also lost is the basic understanding that you tried to express. The "WHY WOULD ANYONE EVEN BOTHER TO WASTE THE ENGINE LIKE THAT?"

Your comment made me wonder do they salt the roads in Europe like they do here? In northern Illinois if we get a few flakes the trucks are out pouring salt all over the place. It wasn't always like this. I am nearly 60 and I remember a time when they only plowed and salted major intersections. The crazy American judicial system has forced the overuse of salt creating the rust issues on cars.

Favre was long gone.
It was the playoff game against the Giants after the 2007 season that Favre was acting like a cold little girl.
That’s when I was for sure done with him, HOF QB or not.

Yeah... That analogy kinda falls through when you spent more than 3 seconds thinking about it.

And yes. They start salting them whenever there's even the slightest chance of slippery roads. Horrible for rust reasons and keeping your car clean, but a total blessing if you live in a part of Europe where it doesn't snow or totally freeze over that often. There's enough people spinning out and crashing with salted roads, as it is.

Major (one of many) flaws in my character that comes off even more terribly via internet. In person, I usually get laughed at in disbelief of clueless a breathing person could actually be.

And to Wayne, the Barry Sanders comment had nothing to do with Eagles and Vikings. It was about the notion of rating a team after removing it's best player. It'd be like ... well go read it again and comprehend the point! (can't believe clueless ME gets to tell that to someone!! lucky day bahaha) ... only messing around.

It's just that easy eh? ... The fact that we have Aaron Rodgers IS the reason. Neither of those teams have had to pay their starting QB yet. Next.
