I want to give you a leg, but I can see you're already perfect.

I gave you a leg for your restraint and commitment to tradition.

25 legs for 25 perfect extra point snaps!

Hopefully the 25 jersey continues it's magic! Maybe some trick plays?

Hopefully this does not mean we expect to be punting a whole lot and it just means he is getting 25 snaps at Center as part of the 4th string players getting reps...

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:

Well this blows up the theory that playing really well the previous week automatically gets you the #25 (not that Shadley played poorly in week1 but I think a lot of folks expected Connor to get it this week)

I thought Shadley was first man down the field on all the punts last week and (along with great punting) forced all the fair catches.

I'd love to see him blow up a poor returner who doesn't call for the fair catch

if thats the case the entire D should be wearing 25 this week.

It's a theory like 2+2=5 is a theory.

It's amazing that after 6 years people still don't know that the previous week's performance does not determine who wears 25 the following game.

I know, right? I can't find the comment and I don't know who said it but I swear I saw at least one or two folks suggesting that the 25 should go to Barno or Kendricks this week

The extra point distance is the 3 yard line, this is week two... 2 and 3 make 23 + 2nd different player this year to get the 25 jersey = 25

#25 Oscar Shadley blows up a punt returner and recovers the fumble for a TD

krak_t's picture krak_t | 4 years 10 months # ^

Any TD scored on a fumble recovery by a player wearing number 25 should be worth 24 points.

It's science.

Does that picture indicate neck beards are in? Because if neck beards are cool, you can consider me Miles Davis (assuming I stop shaving for about 7 days).

Neck beards are still gross.

I hate rude behavior in a man. Won't tolerate it.

one click shows Wagoneer's been around TKP for 7 years. Sheesh. Everyone take a nap, have a snickers or something.

The long snapper is one of the truly unsung heroes. The only time the long snapper is ever mentioned in most games is when he messes up. Let's go for an anonymous Oscar Shadley at the game.

Dude must have been decking guys straight away in practice, putting them on their ass!

(I know this was Bradburn's quote, but how else does the long snapper get the #25?)

Plan for the worst and hope for the best, not the other way around.
