Good stuff. Ferry first started way back in 1964. All right. Howard eskin whats on your mind. Well many teams used to care only about having character people much thats obviously dwindling concern by themes these days. Ill have my comment about that coming up next. There is what i think is a disturbing trend in sports. Players with questionable off the field issues seem to get jobs more than ever. Every team seems to take more chances on these players. Now what happened to the days you would sign only character people . Im not talking about players with parking tickets here either. We are talking about players with duis players with Domestic Violence issues. There are too many problems with college players. But if you can play, teams will take a chance on you in the pros. Its in football mostly because the rosters are bigger but trust me, its in every sport. Im all for second chances, but not in all these cases. In our world of the workplace yours and mine mistakes like ive seen we would not have a job. I know we love sports. We love players that are talented, but where are the examples we should set for the kids that idolize these athletes . Its a trend that is becoming more depressing for all of us that we are sports fans. Lucy. Thank you very much, howard. Actors johnny depp and amber herd settled their divorce in a los angeles court.

I would have loved to have seen adele. Me too. Its not her thing. I dont think its most performers things because you get four songs. Youre live in front of 2 million people. Yup. Its a different situation. I just dont think performers really enjoy that. The nfl at one time asked them to pay the nfl. Really . How interesting. Okay.
