You really think working in a factory is the same as getting hit by a 300 pound football player repeatedly?
Yes I do as a matter of fact.

There's an argument that its the following Sunday game it impacts performance wise rather than the Thursday game
Why is 9 days rest too much???
its not nine days of rest, its three games over 14 days

If every game was on Sunday you would have 3 games in 15 days all season.

sorry, i don't see a relationship there at all. terms of football on a short week, its more than recovery. Its the coaching preparation, practice. Obviously its possible, teams do it, but its something that needs to be adjusted for. If there is no impact then why not play a 162 game season like baseball?

seems like the team that is required to travel would be at a greater disadvantage for a Thursday game. They are getting their prep days cut in half and on top of that they have to use one for travel

I am kinda pumped-up for this game. It's been a while since I have been really impressed with the Hawks. They do have a lot of room to improve but let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Just hoping they don't shit the bed. :lol:
I'm usually worried when everyone is picking Seahawks to win. I get nervous when expectations get deleriously high
with not a lot of data.

Nice annual troll, DT, and better written that past years. nice. :)
