Season ending injury - offense

Submitted by Forsakenprole on September 21st, 2022 at 10:29 PM

If it is not proper protocol to share not-yet-confirmed information regarding a player injury, please consider this a lesson learned for me. But I figure the community may find this relevant. Again: the injury to an offensive player is confirmed, but the identity is, as of now, not yet.

Via one of the paid sites, it appears that a player from the offense is now being ruled out for the season. The reporter was not permitted to confirm the name, but from the hints, the community seems to agree that it is Eric All who is afflicted. 

Regardless of who it is, this is deeply sad to hear we have already lost a player for the season. It seems we are being hit hard on injuries - Cade, Edwards, NHG, various O-lineman, etc… - for the season being so young.

Best wishes to the afflicted player.

It’s Josh Henshke.

He said he could not confirm the player name but he ruled out a few ; it’s not a QB or a running back and a few lineman have been ruled out. The community on the boards is saying the context clues point to it being All, and Josh suggested that those desperate for an answer can find it from those sleuthing about other sources. Apparently it’s around on Twitter and FB. (For whatever that’s worth)

I will accept "coulda" any day because finding and typing the contraction (') can be a problem for some.  I am pretty lenient.  But I cannot deal with "could of" or "should of".  That's just bad, bad, bad.  If you have the time to type the space and the two letters "of" then you have the time to type the space and the four letters "have".

Apparently it’s been a nagging one. Would explain why he hasn’t really had any stats and less play time. 

 

it was said he could play through it or sit out for surgery. But that he wouldn’t likely use his redshirt and would go straight to draft. This and other clues suggest it’s All, according to the community. Regrettably the injury to an offensive starter is confirmed, however; That is is All is NOT confirmed, but that seems to be what the consensus is

Zero brag here. I had a friend who moved to Calahonda in southern Spain many years ago so I could visit on the cheap. The boxes of wine that cost less than a 2 liter of Coke were very, very good. For the price I was paying for Thunderbird in Detroit, and the massive headaches it induced, I was getting good stuff in Spain.

I think taxes are part of the reason, but I may be wrong.

It is taxes, partially, but way more than that too.

1) Re: taxes: American alcohol products face luxury/vice taxes that European markets consider to be taxed at grocery rates.

2) France/Italy/Spain are the 3 largest wine producing countries in the world (US is #4), so by the  simple rules of supply and demand (even accounting for a relatively higher wine consumption compared with the US), and being close to the production (reduced transportation costs), "cheap" wine from these countries tends to be of a fairly decent quality.

3) And the big one: whereas most US winemakers are first generation, meaning they have a mortgage to pay for, and considering something like 90% of US wine production comes from California, where land is by no means affordable, "cheap" US wine tends to be mass market/industrial wine (think 2 buck chuck or carlo rossi jugs)- compare with most European wineries, where the land has been passed down generation to generation, with no mortgage to pay, "cheap" wines from these European wineries also tend to be of good quality compared to their cost.

Often times in Europe, you can just take a 5-gallon jug down to your grape farmer neighbor or down to your local villages cooperative to fill up when you need. It's just a totally different market and culture

Read an article once that talked about how to order wine on a date when you don't know shit about wine and are broke.  Basically read:

First bottle: Order the second cheapest red on the menu, unless it's seafood and go white.

Second Bottle: If she wants to order a second bottle, get the cheapest or table wine.  She won't notice.

Third Bottle: If you've made it this far, get a cab, get it corked, and take her home. Who cares what kind it is.

From the wine bar/restaurant (at least, a reputable one, anyways) side of things: go ahead and order that cheapest bottle. It's on the menu for a reason, the whole second cheapest bottle thing is a myth, unless you're purely wanting to play that vanity game. Wine isn't cheap (compared to other imbibing beverages), so don't feel like you have to spend more to impress when that most affordable bottle should be just as good as that second most affordable and finances are a concern. Also, if you're getting 2 glasses of wine, consider straight up buying the bottle, it'll be more affordable compared to a by-the-glass offering if you're planning on having more than one drink each, and depending on which state you live in, you may be able to take the rest of the bottle home if you don't finish it.

Twitter sleuthing. Says Mackey  award winner 2022. will be  Schnoomaker.  

However, another says he was playing hurt and is getting surgery to preserve the red shirt

Which does not make  sense for All 

So good luck reading tea leaves
