if it didn't have to be a celebrity & i had a time machine, i'd spend the time with my dad, my aunt mary & uncle merle, my grandpa howard, & my great grandma irene.

if it had to be a celebrity, i'd pick aaron rodgers & donald driver.

It was July 3rd, 1974 when Linda told her father, Vernon, that she hated him and hoped he'd die. Kids sometimes say the worst things to their parents forgetting what tomorrow may or may not bring. Those very words she would learn to regret the next 34 years of her life. On July 4th, 1974 Vernon was doing laps at the local race track getting it ready for the ensuing race when suddenly his car veered to the infield striking a large tractor tire. Vernon suffered a heart attack an died almost instantly.

I as well would elect the time machine route to afford my mother the chance to tell her father she loves him one last time before he passes away six years before I was born.

I don't know if I could handle going back to spend one day with my dad, brother, or Happy, because at the end of the day I'd know that I had to say goodbye "that" way all over again.

Sometimes I want to die so that I can see them again. (The knowledge that one is going to with them for eternity is one of the coolest things about being a believer.)

But one day? It would be seriously cool for part of the day, and "I don't want this to end" for the other part, and then "oh shit" as all that opened scar tissue has to scar over for the second time.

Five minutes and I could say everything needed. Now, all I can do is look into the sky, speak and hope she's listening. The only drawback to that is I don't get to hear her laugh, or see her smile at my jokes anymore or tell me how much of a 'trip' I am to be around.

As for living celebrity, probably Will Smith. Those who know his story, will understand that.

That wasn't the case in my situation (well, not for my Dad and brother, anyway; it sorta was for Happy, though the vet saved the body until I could spend time mourning with it). I got to say goodbye.

I'm just saying that I wouldn't want to go through the "saying good bye" twice.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I would imagine Dallas will resolve this issue with a truckload of money
