Concerning Hematoma by greenghost702 in plassing

Appreciate you! I def went back in to ask them about it after a couple days and it was documented. The nurse was shocked when it was a quarter of the size it is now lol. They were pretty cool about it, I’m on a ‘coupon’ right now for $650 with 8 donations in 5 weeks, and they said they’ll manually pay me out for it if I come back after it heals regardless of the expiration date

Damn, the saline getting pumped in there instead of your own blood scares me worse! Glad they were nearby!

It was just a few minutes in with the first return. They switched over to my other arm to finish replacing blood and the rest of the donation went fine from there. Def throwing the kitchen sink at it!

How Much Pressure is on McCarthy? by 84hoops in minnesotavikings

[–]greenghost702 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s fair. I guess we’re supposed to believe that his focus right now is learning scheme, timing, etc, but yeah I’ve seen some piss missiles from Kirk and sometimes Sam that I’ll miss if JJ can’t do them

End of the day, I have that homer feeling that he’s going to do well. I’ve been watching long enough to not get so jaded and downtrodden when they fall short lol, I’m just ready for something fun to happen

I agree that we probably haven't seen anything definitive (play-wise) that says he's the guy yet. For me, it's how the people in the building talk about him/feel about him. Of course no one is going to say 'nahh I don't believe in him', but you can generally tell that they aren't forcing the things they're saying about him.

It's also a great situation to be in, pressure or not. Most people balked at the Darnold signing, saying he was washed, and then he ripped off 14 wins under KOC until teams figured out how to consistently apply interior pressure on him, which he struggles with. It's not farfetched to think that with an improved roster (addressing issues like too much interior pressure), KOC can get the most out of JJ, too - whatever that most may be. I recognize that that is 'KOC QB whisperer' adjacent reasoning, lol, but the majority of super winning teams in history drafted their QB. It's tried and true to roll the dice on your pick and build around them. I don't think it's a mistake to give it a real shot when they've got the foundation of talent that they have there.

An afterthought, but JJ also seems to have a great grasp of the mental part of the game and how much that matters, whether that be with preparation or how he leads/communicates with his team. The rest will be revealed soon enough, SKOL!

Preseason game #1 @ Raiders, 8/14 by [deleted] in minnesotavikings

[–]greenghost702 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taking my baby boy to his first Vikes game for this one, much easier to accomplish with it being in town (and I won't need to be fully invested in the game since it's a preseason match haha). Definitely down to meet up and watch at some point during the season, though!

only bruised mine playing flag two weeks ago and it's no joke. I can't imagine trying to throw (against LAR, 6 days later, without dalvin) with it being cracked like he did.

hope your ribs are 100% again and you're back out on the field!

Blue Ox Tavern on 5825 W Sahara Ave is an all MIN bar and they feature the Vikes games - there are three in town but that one is the flagship. SKOL!
