Around SBN: NFL Owners Vote to Change Trade Deadline

WARNING.....NOT FOOTBALL RELATED!!!! But worth your time

Had to share this.
 
"A palindrome reads the same backwards as forward. This video reads the exact opposite backwards as forward. Not only does it read the opposite, the meaning is the exact opposite.
 
This is only a 1 minute, 44 second video and it is brilliant. Make sure you read as well as listen...forward and backward.
 
This is a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20-year old. The contest was titled "u @ 50" by AARP. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause. So simple and yet so brilliant.
 
Take a minute and watch it."

Thanks, Joe. In such a cynical society, it’s nice to see a positive message. I bet we could do something like this using the Bills as the subject…

woah....tell me more about these deep fried mayo balls???---Slick Shifty

Wow!

I know the message is inspiring etc, but that’s secondary to me to the sheer ingenuity of it. Awesome!

Cheers, Joe.

(P.S. the Uncommon Denominator has a great idea. Someone out there with more brains than me, please get on this! Maybe we could commission the girl who did the original?!)

Well deserving of a rec!

That was a great video

I’m 28 and I see the type of people in my generation and we need more people who are willing to reverse their thinking like the video did. Thanks for posting it I sent it to all the people in my office.

It would be more inspiring if it wasn’t associated with the chief advocate of the world’s biggest Ponzi scheme.

It can always get worse. Let me tell you how.

nice job bro

It seems like Uncle Jesse and Cooter have a plan. I wish Waylon Jennings was still around to be narrator.

pretty cool video

if you guys have over an hour to spare and want to see something similar. check out Dmitri Martin’s “If I” stand up routine. I believe it is on YouTube in installments. It definitely is not the “stand up” in the typical sense. It has a much deeper concept to it while injecting some humor into it. I like to watch it every now and again to reinforce a little perspective. If you decide to watch it, then enjoy. I did immensely.

That was excellent

Thanks Joe

Good Job Joe.

People need to understand how important their family is.

This video puts it a way only the most cynical wouldn’t realize it.

This is the problem in the current generation, not realizing how valuable family is.

The breakdown of the family is one of the greatest threats to the current generation.

good stuff

I guess to me the most surprising thing

is that people actually need to be told this or need a video to realize this. Still the format was kind of interesting with the forward/reverse thing, although I noticed words were added here & there that weren’t printed on the reverse in order to make their point.

I can't stand those scumbags who throw trash on the ground

i’ll be at a gas stop and see someone drop a whole bag of empty mcdonalds right out their window, I would like to go up and kick their car, it’s awful. These people are so ignorant and dumb that it is gonna look like that one movie “idiocracy”, i recomend it, it gave me a good laugh and taught me a lesson of how dumb some people really are

So I had to reopen comments to tell this story. One of my sixth grade students copied that and tried to turn it into their health teacher as a original assignment. I thought it was ironic.

6th graders are dumb

When I have kids, I want them to skip the 6th-8th grade years. Bunch of little bastards at that age.
