I like EH in this... This should be ok to watch I would imagine but we'll see...

I started a thread a while ago asking if anyone thought there would be a 50 year old starter in the NFL.... I would just like to say that it seems like the numbers are really jumping in some sports of people playing in their mid 40's.. I mean it's not even news anymore.... 50 is not that big of a stretch...
