    The tackling machine known as AJ Hawk has retired.

    http://www.packers.com/news-and-events/article-press-release/article-1/LB-AJ-Hawk-retires-as-a-Packer/29654de9-659e-48e8-a831-dac75f6193a2
    Hawk, who was drafted by Green Bay with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2006 NFL Draft out of Ohio State, ranks No. 1 in franchise history (since 1975) with 1,118 career tackles, having surpassed LB John Anderson’s mark (1,020, 1978-89) in the 2013 regular-season finale. Hawk led the Packers in tackles five times during his career (2006, 2008, 2010, 2012-13), which is tied with LB Nick Barnett for the top mark in team history.

    Hawk played in 142 of a possible 144 regular-season games with 136 starts in Green Bay, appearing in all 16 contests in eight of his nine seasons with the Packers. In addition to his 1,118 career tackles (798 solo), he registered 19 sacks, nine interceptions, 43 passes defensed, three forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries.

    Hawk also played one season (2015) with the Cincinnati Bengals and appeared in one game for the Atlanta Falcons in 2016. His 158 games played from 2006-15 were the most among NFL linebackers over that span.

    Sad to see him retire but he played in that position a lot longer than most people can at a higher level of skill throughout. Probably good to walk away when he is still in good physical shape.

    Derek Carr: Fans who aren’t still with us weren’t true Raider fans.
    Any Oakland fans who are no longer supporting the Raiders because they’re moving to Las Vegas aren’t real fans, according to quarterback Derek Carr.

    Carr said at the start of the team’s offseason workout program that he expects Oakland fans to remain loyal to the team, and doesn’t think they were ever really fans if they don’t.

    “We’re not going to split up like you’ve seen other cities do,” Carr said, via ESPN. “We’re not going to do things like that. For the ones that do, I don’t really believe that they’re true Raider fans. I feel their hurt. I’m with you. I hurt, too. But at the same time, we’re all in this together and we’re just going to do it together.”

    Carr believes only a tiny minority of fans will ditch the Raiders.

    “Out of like 1,000 people, you’re going to get one or two that have something to say and that’s with everything,” he said. “Hopefully y’all don’t focus on that kind of stuff because there’s the 99 percent that are loyal, faithful fans that are going to ride with us wherever we’re at.”

    That’s all easy for Carr to say. It’s harder for Oakland residents who have supported the team with their hard-earned dollars for years to accept that the team will abandon them.

    Hey, Derek. Shut up.

    he's totally right

    just look at how much everyone in Seattle loves the thunder

    The amount of hate Seattle has for the thunder can't be understated. I was at a mariners game when the thunder got eliminated from the play offs one year and the crowd roared when the PA announcer called it out.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    It's not even just the Thunder. It's the NBA in general. Like, I hear the playoffs were good last year. Fuck them, I hope they still managed to lose ass loads of cash.

    Don't worry man, Carr still loves you even if your one of those "Not true' fans.

    He was acquitted of two other murders but was already serving time for the one he was found guilty. Just to clarify the headlines from the past few days. It's not like he was getting released to the general public anytime soon, prior to the suicide.

    True, and I don't even pretend to understand his mindset, the timing just seems weird.

    Most likely because he was generally out of mind at this point except when ESPN posted a random story about his new tattoo or whatever for some quick clicks.

    Then suddenly he's in the news for his acquittal and his lawyer talks about how he's gonna overturn the other case on appeal (not that a lawyer wouldn't boast that anyway) and he's gonna be free, things looking up for him out of nowhere.

    And then he's dead a few days later, and I find out from a Facebook news site I follow that has been nearly 99% political coverage until today.

    Anyway, I don't have anything particularly insightful to say about his whole saga, just a weird media experience the past few days.

    Seems like he got acquitted on those two charges took that as as much vindication as he was going to get and then took his life.

    The personal matter probably being that Giselle told him to shut up and not go, and if he ever touches politics again, she will break him.

    true, but that stems a lot from the fact that he didn't go to the White House when Obama was in office either

    Did he have a family emergency then too? Otherwise I don't see how one is related to the other.

    No, he decided not to go then because he got butthurt over a deflategate joke Obama made. But he had a Trump hat in his locker once, and it's apparently impossible to be a Trump supporter and not be a racist.

    I don't think Brady is a racist, but if you support someone who is a racist themselves it sort of puts you racism adjacent

    I've actually always thought Brady isn't too bright outside the one thing he does better than anyone else ever has. I was in the Bledsoe camp in Oct/Nov 01 and one of the parts was Bledsoe was sharper. Now Bledsoe is running a successful winery and coaching football and stuff and Brady has these patently BS dietary ideas that somehow work for him so I think that part of it holds up.
