I think the moral of the story is that there’s a market for football podcasts with musical numbers that frequently dabble in food metaphors and moral philosophy.

Former #49ers All-Pro DE Aldon Smith spent part of the final day of his life delivering pizzas to a local homeless charity (pictured below).
Hours later, he was found unresponsive in a vehicle and was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
Smith was 36 years old. His cause of death is pending.

USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.
Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.
I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."
"They just come with the table, man."
They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.
This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.
I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.
"Did we…?"
"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."
Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.
My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."
Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.
I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.
Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.
I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.
Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

#Broncos OLB Jonathon Cooper was arrested again Thursday night on charges of domestic violence, harassment, and violating a protection order.
According to police, Cooper’s ex-girlfriend called authorities after he allegedly showed up at her residence, knocked on her door for 5-10 minutes, and repeatedly called and texted her.
Per @denverpost, an updated arrest affidavit states that a forensic nurse reported his ex-girlfriend suffered "strangulation with hypoxia and traumatic brain injury."

Ed Oliver on TJ Parker: “Oh. I'll tell you one. I seen him on film the other day chasing a running back and I said, ‘who the f*ck?’I mean, ‘who the heck is that matching the running back step for step?’ I was like, oh, he a cheat code. So as the more I start to watch film and, you know, learn my teammates and start to watch them, and you know, everybody in the league is freaky in their own way. But he was chasing the running back. I was like, he is really matching the running back step for step. So that's just one of the things, that he's just explosive, fast, a young kid.”

A.J. Epenesa signed with Philadelphia. Epenesa was a 2020 second-round pick of the Bills who signed with the Browns earlier this offseason but was released with a failed medical evaluation.

Recently I took part in the annual “Top 10 Most Important Players to the Future of the Buffalo Bills” project alongside many esteemed creators.
It occurred to me today that I have never shared the chart I use every year to complete this exercise.
Bottom right = most important

Awesome This Is Football with Sean McDermott.
He oversaw one of the best QB development stories ever. I asked what advice he'd give teams on how to handle young QBs.
"Number one. There's only one Josh Allen. I was honored to be a part of his development."
A GREAT breakdown:

“They can’t be stupid enough to not fully feature the RB they drafted third overall” he says about the team stupid enough to draft a RB third overall.
#Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur on how he’ll deploy his running backs:
“If Steph Curry’s on fire, and he’s supposed to get his sub, you’re not taking the hot hand out. And that’s kinda the same approach you end up taking with a back. A back — just like a basketball player, or any football player — can get into a rhythm. It’s like, just keep giving him the football. Like, he’s just feelin’ it right now.”

Ray Davis wants the ball. (He's got a point, too.) I caught up with a #Bills running back dying to show the world what he can do.
“Each and every day I just come to work and pray that I get an opportunity to showcase who I am."

Any leagues still have outstanding fantasy punishments? 😂
This guy finished 10th and had to go trick-or-treating in June until he got 10 pieces of candy. 🍬
That’s commitment to league rules.
