Thanks for the reminder. I enjoyed all three and am looking forward to the fourth.
Seeing that the Eagles play WFT today, Tom and I aren’t on speaking terms at the moment.
If you’re asking, I’d keep this thread up. It was a FC, and the subject line contained information not readily apparent in the other subject lines. It’s poor form to penalize a good subject line.
If you stop to think about it, which is more informative?
1. Brooks is going to the NFL.
2. Brooks is opting out of the bowl game.
#2 clearly implies #1. #1 does not imply #2 (Saquon, for example). In mathematical terms, #2 is “stronger” than #1.

Now that’s a good explanation, but when you getting that delete button?
The delete button wouldn’t help @Midnighter. It gives you the ability to delete a post within a thread but not the original thread itself.
Edit: You might have missed it: Tom took the delete button up with the people who run this website and got back to me let me know that for now the delete button isn’t happening.

Stop making stuff up.
I saw that but change won’t happen with out the people being heard!! I am here to offer my voice!! By God!!
Good inside joke. Just for ***** and giggles I checked the convergence of
1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + ... (which diverges to infinity), and it took 12366 terms for the sum to first exceed 10. (I have Maple on my computer, I didn’t do it in my head.)
For the non-math folks, here’s an example of a convergent sum:
2 = 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + ... + 1/(2^k) + ...
Edit: Here’s how it works. Think of a rectangle of height 2 units and width 1 unit. The area of the rectangle will then be 2•1 = 2 square units. That’s the 2 on the left-hand-side of the equation. Now cut the rectangle in half lengthwise. You’re left with two rectangles, each with area 1. Now cut one of the new rectangles in half. You now have three rectangles, with areas 1, 1/2, 1/2. Now cut one of the new, smaller, rectangles in half; this gives you four rectangles, with areas 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/4. There’s a math technique called taking the limit which gives you the infinite sum you see here. Great stuff.

One other very cool convergent series is
(pi) = 4 - 4\3 + 4\5 - 4\7 + 4\11 - 4\13 ...
Thanks for indulging me.
This is true. The players are going to have a hell of a time understanding his calling the plays. Every other play will be a delay-of-game. But seeing as WFT is matched up against a steaming pile of *******, I’m optimistic.
I like it when you turn the calculator upside down and make it say "hell".
I'm always impressed at how a pro backup can come in and perform adequately. From a sports betting perspective, it's often a good bet, as the public will overreact to the backup. I think the catch is that they usually can't do it consistently from week to week.
I was thinking that he knew it might be the last time he played in a NFL game.
Film plays a big part too. Once your tendencies and weaknesses are on film, you usually get exploited.
