I'll give you a hint, it has nothing to do with left or right

 Where do a right handed qb eyes and body point when he drops back?

Its different than a left handed qb.

I know what designates weak and strong side of the field question is why was it designed that way?

No thanks im married😉

Why would he retire? Why would he said hell be back if david stern would let him?

His father was just killed.  Maybe he didnt want to play at that time.

If the nba suspended him, why go play minor league baseball?  Makes no sense.

Similar to me

I can write with my right hand but my penmanship sucks with both.  I abandoned script when I got out of high school.  Learned that writing with a fountain pen in a binder.   Rarely write with a pen.  Prefer a pencil.  But I can use a hand tool as well with my right hand.  Heck, my circular saws are decidedly right handed.  

I do prefer a left handed bow and rifle but that is because I am left eyed.  But I learned to shoot and golf right handed because my dad was right handed and practically blind in his left eye.

Why was his dad kilked?

And if he was leaving of his own accord why ask if Stern would let him come back?

Nothing says he cant go play baseball, except baseball telling him he cant play because he sucked at baseball

It's always been the dumbest conspiracy theory ever and the documentary proved that. But if I were from Utah and I watched the guy dagger my team year after year, I'd probably believe it too.

Strong side of the offense is where the tight end lines up.  Strongside (SAM) linebacker lines up on that side.  Weakside (WILL) lines up on the other side.

 

 

Any other questions?

Wow dude really i know what designates weak and strong side. Stop measuring your P and think about why an offense was designed differently for a righty than a lefty.

Tradiotional offense has a TE and WR line up on the right side of the qb with one receiver lined up to the left. When a right handed qb drops back his eyes and body automatically are positioned to the right side of the field so it would make sense to design an offense where their are more targets in his line if vision and also where he doesnt have to throw across the opposite side of his body.

Seeing as majority of qbs throughout history have bern righties offenses evolved to cater to them being right handed. Including blocking schemes with LT protecting the qbs " blind side" if hes a lefty its not his blind side.

Which poses the question would the design of football be different if majority of qbs were left handed.

As for defense the defense is designed around stopping the offense doesnt matter ifca MLB or FS is a lefty or righty has zero effect on the design if the game where as if a qb is lefty the whole offense gets flipped to accommodate him.

yes the documentary proved jordan was only an a hole to his teammates and no one else😒

Weak side is the side from the center with the least amount of players.  Strong side is the opposite because there are more players.  After knowing this, do you still need to told why one side is considered strong and the other side weak or did common sense kick in yet?

I dont know why his dad was killed.  Maybe he was targeted or maybe someone was trying to rob him and killed him too or maybe it was random.  These things happen all the time.  There are alot of sick, violent people out there.  Why do you think famous people have security around them all the time?  People will try to do things if they're famous.  His father was very well known.

I never heard of him asking Stern to let him back in.  That's news to me.

I'm just saying that if you're under investigation for gambling and the NBA suspends you secretly, wouldn't you lay low instead of bringing attention to yourself and play baseball?  Idk that's just me.

He thought if he typed enough words, no one would read it and just assume he knew what he was talking about.  

Strong side = MJ

Weak side = The Mailwoman

We sound very, very, similar. I can shoot with either hand but Dad taught me right handed shoot a bow right handed. (Cheaper right handed bolt action guns) I do like to write with a pen and all my tools are right handed but I can hammer with either. I tend to drive with either as well. I golf and throw a ball left handed (when I golfed). Lifting, my left arm is definitely stronger

 

Maybe this movie confused him?

Why was his dad killed?  Teenagers, who were partying saw a lexus parked at a quality inn with an old man sleeping in it.  In an area that doesn't see that kind of car and that kind of money all of the time.  He was robbed and killed.  You want to use a conspiracy theory for every robbery and murder since then?  Sometimes bad people do bad things.  You honestly should take a knee today.  You're getting smoked.  And not just by me.  

The NBA is a multi billion industry and jordan was the face of that industry you really think the NBA is going to let anything get out that sheds a bad light on them?

Super star players get super star treatment. Jordan was the biggest super star of all time. Either way well never know but it sells papers either way😉

I thought taking a knee was disrespectful😒

Read below.😒 i know what designates strong side and weak side. The question was rhetorical?

The question is why was the right side designed to be strong side? (Rhetorical)

Because majority of qbs were right handed.

Well, yes and no. When the Eagles run strong left they don't flip the offense, just the TE. When they go 12 personnel Ertz usually lines up on the left side. Without Goedert in there it's strong left but the OL doesn't flip.This NOT to say that you're wrong in concept because you're not. Our running offense is definitely right-handed, by design. When we go with two TEs they usually both line up on the left side as well, with Goedert motioning back across the formation, either to block the right side or to do a wham on an interior DL or LB.

In the attached Zach Ertz highlight video, there are 20 plays.

11 of them Ertz, the primary receiver and target leader for the Eagles, is lined up to the left on 11 of the 20 plays, not in the QB line of vision and so he has to throw across his body.

They do make left handed circular saws, I have one though I"m right handed. I can see the cut line with a left handed saw though cross cutting is awkward.

I do prefer a left handed bow and rifle but that is because I am left eyed.  But I learned to shoot and golf right handed because my dad was right handed and practically blind in his left eye.

That has nothing to do with weakside bro. They don't always line up on the right or the left as weak or strong, depends on quite a few different factors as to which side is the "strong" side. it could be left or right.
