Chip Banks shot
-
I still remember wanting to lose my ever loving mind the day Chip got traded to the Chargers ?..It was on my birthday in 87, on draft day of April 28th.. the GM than was Paul Accorsi & Marty was the head coach. Accorsi only swamped picks in the 1st & 2nd round to move Banks. When we drafted Chip. Sam was the HC & Marty was the DC. Our GM that picked Chip 3rd was..Peter Hadhazy...Banks stared in a 3-4 system built by Marty.. Till this day.. am still pissed that Chip got traded..It took till Belicheck to arrive in 92, till Accorsi got canned.. Chip Banks never played for the Chargers
..Chip sat out the 87 season, due to not seeing the offer the Browns had already offered (have we been here before?).. Accorsi felt trading Banks & moving up from pick 24 to pick #5 for LB Mike Junkin & from pick #53 to pick 32 for a center named Mike Rakoczy was a better choice.. Vinnie Testaverde went #1 to TB in 87...
Good Luck to Chip Banks & his Family?...I still own the White & Brown Chip Banks jerseys.. prayers our brother, prayers

Junkin was supposed to be the bomb. Did he really only last 3 years in the NFL? Banks was the real deal. The Browns could sure use a Banks in his prime right about now.

"The 60-year-old Banks was one of three victims in the shooting, TMZ reported, with one man pronounced dead at the scene. Police said five or six masked men arrived at the residence, shot a man in the driveway and then went inside to shoot two more before leaving the scene."

Thanks. It happened a few days ago, no? Doesn't seem to be much info on it....like motive? I mean, was it a friendly card game gone bad? Who's shooting up 3 guys and why?

There seems to be little to no info on the situation surrounding this... but I doubt it was a friendly card game gone wrong. If anything, it sounds like a drug deal gone wrong. (Absolute speculation on my part, but it would make sense). Who knows, maybe a high stakes card game that someone knew about and there was an attempt to rob them, and shit went south? Hell, I remember a Sopranos episode similar to this.

Why would anyone want to live in Atlanta. I find the concept wholly unappealing. Same with Dallas/Houston/Phoenix. Now, the mountain area east of Atlanta.....Galveston...north of Phoenix around Prescott/Sedona...sure, and maybe Waco, or Abilene in Texas. But not in those cities.
Looks like time for a survey.

You couldn't pay me money to live anywhere south of the Mason-Dixon Line, so this is all a "moo point" to me.

Too freaking hot for me we know people who sold everything in Ohio and moved to the gulf side of Florida only to put up with red tide, hurricanes, long 100+ degree heat and many new neighbors in the past 10 years. Some are returning back to Ohio.
Nice place to visit in the dead of winter.

Prescott and Sedona are the best places in the country to mountain bike.

Hmm, "Pharms"....might he be related to old Browns' draftee, LB Jeremiah Pharms (who had serious off field issues)??

Yea, isn't that the guy they drafted without doing any background check....and he was under indictment for like drug trafficking and attempted murder or the like. Le't dig him up:
So, he did a couple years in prison....came out, spent a couple of years in the Arena League...but caught again doing a crime of some sort.
Have not seen any articles about him since like 2005....however, see this:

Apparently Pharms has a kid who may be a long shot prospect.

We got rattlesnakes, copperheads, water moccasins, coral snakes, cactus, and 108 degrees heat this past week. What more could you ask for in life dammit??
EDIT: Oh yeah and no rain since the big hail storm at the end of June.

Ohio's Three Venomous Snake SpeciesThe three venomous snakes in Ohio are the Northern Copperhead, the Eastern Massasauga rattlesnake, and the Timber Rattlesnake. (Despite what you may have heard or believed you have seen, to date no cottonmouths/water moccasins have been found in Ohio.)Apr 15, 2020
