  1. I can see you like to argue, so I'll let you continue to do so with someone other than me for points 1-4. As for #5, I've yet to see you admit that it was likely a seizure, and I simply explained that if that were so, what the likely course of action would/should be IMO. So, no strawman, but you're certainly gaslighting. My "argument" is predicated upon what my trained, objective experience tells me I witnessed. It's why I can clinically respond appropriately from across a room when I see symptom XYZ. Same for the doc I'm assuming. Speculating on that and subsequently commenting about logical, well-established protocols seems to be where you're hung up. Again, weird hill to die on, but go off. And have a healthy and happy New Year.
  2. Maybe that's part of the problem. If you slow down the game, you will likely see less injuries. First thing I would do is eliminate the defensive "holding" penalty, or at least not have it result in a first down. Basically would be like a hand check in basketball (which they also eliminated to make the game more offense oriented, but diluted the game to a series of 1v1 matchups).
  3. Kind of a weird hill to die on here, my guy. Moore clearly suffered what appeared to be a tonic-clonic seizure after a hit to the head. At the very least, a prolonged period of not playing football, coupled with a ~72hr EEG and MRI/fMRI are pretty much no-brainers. I'm not his treating physician, but I am an ED RN who's seen enough of this in the past to know 1) what this looks like, and 2) what should follow. Want to get into the ethics of this? Have at it. But the doc responsible for calling the NFL out on its sh*tty practices regarding CTE says Moore should take a significant break or retire. Guy knows what he's talking about. POSSIBLY.
  4. This, coupled with Payton's criticism of Hackett, perfectly illustrates how two things can be true at the same time.
  5. Here's the best barometer, and IMO indicative of where the fan base is at this point.
  6. This is how normal folks get through their days; it's called critical thinking. All I'm suggesting is that this was likely a conversation in which a couple of 20-somethings were expressing how they felt about a not so great situation. Things were said, regrets are now had, and here we are.
  7. Words matter. The key one in this report has always been 'reluctant.' When you view the story through that word, it really makes this a nothingburger. But softheads are all in a tizzy over it, so it must be SOMETHING. It's not. Leaker: Hey Zach, you might have to go back out there at some point, the other guys obviously are doing even worse. ZW: I don't know, I'm a bit reluctant to go back out there. The OL is still decimated, Lazard still looks like he'd rather be playing FIFA, and Breece is having issues getting going. Besides, it's not like I'm gonna be back here next year. And it's not like I'm going to be able to do any better with all the stuff I just mentioned. Leaker: But you could go out there and show off your god-given talent at least, maybe showcase yourself. ZW: Oh yea, how?!?! Hack won't let me throw anything more vanilla than a pint of Häagen-Dazs, so that ain't happening. Leaker: Yea I see where you're coming from. ZW: Right? That's why I'm so reluctant to step out there again. Plus the whole possibility of getting benched. Again. Leaker: Yup, I get it. BRB. C'mon Russini, accept my DM damnit!!!

    Covid

    Anecdotally, I'm seeing a ton of entero/rhino, RSV, and adenovirus in the ER. Covid, not so much.
  9. It's not that great when you figure in what's required of you, and the liability to your license when working with razor-thin staffing rations, or none at all like I do in the ED. And what's stopping you? I became a RN at 45.🤨 They're typically beholden to staffing ratios by unions/state requirements. Admittedly, I haven't been following the RWJ fiasco (and since his name is on it, I would assume he is associated with the hospital system). And there is no way they've budgeted staffing at $70+/hr for RNs in their healthcare system for 5 months.
  10. I know he's a billionaire, but something to consider going forward (and a possible reason for the 2024 season ticket demand during this season) is that RWJ is in the middle of a 5 month RN contract strike. That's got to be costing them quite a bit of money given the rate of travel/agency RN pay nowadays.
  11. After doing all of that, and given our past history, who of any quality and their right mind is going to want to come here? Also, there isn't a QB playing right now in the NFL who would find marked improvement behind this OL.

    The OL

    Waitaminute!!! The Jets have TWO OL/run game coordinators!?!?!?!? This ******* team. I think TIppmann has been serviceable as a rookie thus far. Everything I've seen from an analysis standpoint supports that, but I know you have actual access compared to me, so....

    The OL

    While most of us readily admit it's a problem (some were saying so before camp, the rash of injuries, etc), I only see it mentioned within other threads, so I figured why not start a dedicated one. One thing I don't hear much about is the scheme. Some of you may remember that the Jets controversially hired Keith Carter after he was let go by the Titans. Another thing not mentioned a lot is how do the different players currently on roster fit into this type of scheme. In that vein, I offer up Max Mitchell as someone vastly overwhelmed within that scheme. This is spectacularly bad. https://x.com/BaldyNFL/status/1728449609788227804 EDIT- sorry, don't know why X isn't embedding.
