Eagles OT Lane Johnson says he 'realistically' has two or three more seasons left

the question turns to how long stud right tackle

 

Lane Johnson could stick around. The 34-year-old told reporters Wednesday that, physically, he thinks he could play another six years but likely won't

"I think physically ... I could play to 40," Johnson said, via the Philly Inquirer. "With my movement, I think physically I can do it.

"What weighs on my mind is just, my kids are getting older; my dad's getting older and has had some health issues."

Barack Obama called out Trump for ‘whining’ and Michelle Obama urged Democrats to drop the ‘Goldilocks complex’

 

 

Barack and Michelle Obama electrified the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday, delivering back-to-back speeches that eviscerated Donald Trump and urged Americans to reject the Republican nominee once and for all.

 

Then, the former president in a speech that evoked memories of his emergence into the American political consciousness and his own winning campaigns — said that the “vast majority of us do not want to live in a country that’s bitter and divided.”

 

“We do not need four more years of bluster and bumbling and chaos."

Michael Oher says 'The Blind Side' felt like a 'comedy about someone else' in first interview since filing lawsuit

 

Former NFL star Michael Oher has broken his silence about the lawsuit he filed last year accusing Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy of deceiving him into a conservatorship and unfairly profiting from the book and movie "The Blind Side," which centered on the couple's relationship with him.

 

"It seemed kind of funny to me, to tell you the truth, like it was a comedy about someone else," he said, expressing fear that public perceptions of him based on the movie might affect his children. “If my kids can’t do something in class, will their teacher think, 'their dad is dumb — is that why they’re not getting it?'”

Taylor Swift Fans Think Her New Wax Figure in Germany Is an ‘Atrocity’:

 

It’s a cruel summer indeed for Taylor Swift‘s new wax figure, which has garnered not-so-positive reviews from fans after the Panoptikum Wax Museum unveiled the attraction earlier this week.

 

Located in Hamburg, Germany, the pop star’s latest wax reincarnation was inspired by her 2019 iHeart Radio Music Awards look and features a replica of the spangly purple bodysuit she wore on the red carpet. But that’s pretty much where the similarities end, according to Swifties online, who’ve taken to social media to share their dislike for the statue on social media.

KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa. (Gray News) – A Chick-fil-A customer in Pennsylvania is outraged after she said she was charged for a to-go bag.

 

In a TikTok video posted last week, the woman showed a screenshot of her receipt from Chick-fil-A’s app.

 

The receipt shows a 10-cent charge for “1x Bag Fee.”

 

“What’s next? Are you gonna charge me for the French fry container? You gonna charge me for the potatoes? You gonna charge me to park in your parking lot? Like what’s next?” she said in the video.

 

However, the woman ordered from a Chick-fil-A in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, where a local law requires businesses to charge for single-use carryout bags.

 

According to the law, which took effect on Jan. 1 of this year, single-use plastic bags are prohibited. However, businesses must charge customers at least 10 cents to provide paper bags.

"A ‘Borderlands’ Fan Regretfully Reviews The ‘Borderlands’ Movie"

 

Given that it’s being rated as one of the worst video game adaptations ever in a sea of bad video game adaptations, most from a decade or more ago, I had to see Borderlands for myself. It is not 2005-era Uwe Boll bad, and yet it is also not good at all. To talk about it, you should know up front that I’m someone with hundreds and hundreds of hours across three games and a pre-sequel, and that’s the perspective I’m coming from.

 

This is neither a good Borderlands movie nor a good movie, period. It feels like Gearbox and Eli Roth tried to split the difference here, making a mass-appeal PG-13 action film but gesturing vaguely at the games to try to get that crowd to show up too.

 

But the end result is throwing the Borderlands games at a wall, watching them shatter, and gluing back together a handful of mildly recognizable pieces.

Indiana Jones fans are worried about the studio (Machine Games) that is working on the new Indiana Jones game mainly because it's the same studio that released the "hyper-violent" video game first person shooter franchise Wolfenstein. Fans are also worried because the last two entries of the Indiana Jones franchise have been garbage that shouldn't exist in the first place. How will Machine Games take away this worry in the Indiana Jones community?
