The guy squirting water into Zach Ertz’s mouth is Joe O’Pella. He’s an athletic trainer that’s been with the team for over 15 years at this point.
NFL teams don’t really have water boys, athletic trainers are usually the ones responsible for having water on the practice field and during games, but this post is absolutely hilarious.
A guy who rehabbed my ACL tear in my second year, has a masters degree from Pitt, and has years of experience keeping Eagles players healthy and on the field being called a “Waterboy” is crazy, and I’m already giving him shit for it, but good lord this post is so wildly misleading.
Either way, thought I’d clear the air, that the people with Water Bottles during games actually serve much bigger roles on NFL Teams.
I lived this shit man, 99% of the people with an opinion have never been to a G5 game, and damn is it frustrating
I was on campus when my school was the best G5 team in the nation. I was at the only gameday my school will ever see. My REAL LIFE was impacted by G5 football.
Years like this mean EVERYTHING to a G5 school, and it pains me that no one will experience this again if their seat is taken from the table.
All so Walmart fans can watch another episode of their favorite TV show.
Shame on anyone that built a platform covering this great sport trying to strip down all the things that make it great
14 years ago today, I delivered my sophmore album MAN ON THE MOON: THE LEGEND OF MR. RAGER. As a lot of you know, this was a very difficult time for me. I was heavily using cocaine, my depression was stronger than it ever was at that time, and I didnt think I'd make it to see 30. But you all listened, and supported me, and were there for me, and thats part of the reason, prolly the main reason, I made it thru the darkness at that time. To everyone that still bumps this album, or spread the word over the years, I LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE. ❤️❤️❤️ They say an artists 2nd album is the most important. I knew I couldnt fuck this up. And I made sure to deliver something that was just as good as my first album, to show u all I was meant to be here and I wasnt some one trick pony. The rest is history. To the fans, thank you for never leaving me lonely 🥺🙏🏾❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Im off on an adventureeee
On this day, 80 years ago, Allied forces landed on the beaches of Normandy, France. Among the thousands of Allied troops were a handful of U.S. Marines who played a noteworthy but little-known role.
Don’t quit on yourself. Life isn’t always easy and God never said it would be without challenges. But today and every day, you have to focus on what you can control, focus on your response and know that you will find success in the end as long as you don’t give up.
