Super Bowl

With the Super Bowl concluding - Anyone have any interesting stories about professional sports or the exams they have to take?

To think of all these football players stripped down.

I wonder how the exams are completed.

I do not really. I have already been over the Terry Bradshaw thing and what would happen if I ever met him.

But what about the commercials. My all time favorite ever was the weenie dog for ketchup and mustard. All those weenies running their little butts off. Just so freakin adorable, lol.

Don't care one bit.

Yes, Mashie. The commercials. One that caught my interest was for Opioid Induced Constipation. There were several (Call it like it is) shit-eating grins throughout the clip, but the lady at the end has the most suggestive one. And, is that toilet paper wrapped around her ankle?

Woah, that list! That got me thinking...there's some seriously hot hot hot football players. Can you imagine them bent over for the rectal?

Oh, I just noticed, you meant PHYSICAL exams. 😁

Based on the college kids they came from, they sure didn't have to pass any didactic exams!

But what about the commercials.

If i learned one thing from the commercials, it's that there are a lot of 7 year old Giants fans born in November around my birthday. And that the NFL is out to promote procreation so more babies will be born around my birthday.

Which could one day make booking birthday parties a pain in the neck

Oh wait. i don't HAVE birthday parties

Testicular is left out. A lot of those players are young enough to potentially be at risk

Once the player has been fought for in the draft, the team probably has a lot invested and wants to keep them, but I can't help think that the exam is to protect the team owners, not the player.

It's like my bank account passwords expire on a regular basis and I have to change them and remember new ones and you have to go through a whole rigamarole to prove you're you before you change it, get codes back from the bank, etc. That protects the bank more than I need the protection.

I love football. I watch it for the tight ends.

Chester, that was very funny. And one I have not actually heard before, lol.

Healthy 44, your post was also very funny, not to mention thought provoking to boot.

On a side note to you Sue, I went to camp one summer as the nurse and was gone for two month. During that time my husband tried to get into the bank accounts. I had given him the pass word and everything, but he just somehow wasn't entering it correctly. Well somehow the bank had me listed as dead. Yes, dead. You have no idea the amount of work it took to prove to them that it really was me standing in front of them. I have no idea what was being said on the other end of the phone but the bank president that was on my end kept saying things like, "no really, I took her fingerprints and they are a match". Or, seriously, her ID matches her face and it's the same one we have on file and in our records". And my favorite one was, "Yes, I'm serious, I'm not imagining her."

I can somewhat understand all of that if I had tens or hundreds of thousands in the bank, but I had just over 2 grand. That's peanuts, lol. So according to the bank I had been dead for 2 months already. I'm just glad we were able to get it all figured out.

Pity that this post did not come up sooner, as I live in a community where many of the NY Giants have resided. In fact, one of the giants lived in my unit, before I purchased it. So, if you bring up the questions about their physicals next August, I will ask around
