I was saying 35% chance of happening on Tuesday. I’ve adjusted it to 49% chance now.

I don’t think he’s coming back.
But if he did, I hope it’s the last 1/3rd of the season. Say like 4-5 games left. That way he’s fresher come playoff time (not worn out).
Also, it means we pay him less. I don’t think we need him for the whole season. A late season add is good for him (fresher) and us (less $$$ and cap hit).

I’d rather him come back now and kept in a healthy rotation. He doesn’t require the playing time as in years past. Keep him fresh, keep him healthy, keep him in sync with the defense, and keep him in game shape for when we really need him
It doesn't mesh with what Donald has said in the past to think he is going to come in late in the season. I would guess that if - and that is a big IF - Donald returns, it will be to play most if not all of the season. The coaching staff knows what they're doing and so does Aaron. They'll handle it the best way for the team and AD. My guess would be that a more limited role but not by all that much. I'm guessing that Aaron's pride won't allow it. He's either all in or not in at all.
But neither does coming out of retirement. This is uncharted territory
He's always in great shape. But he still has to get into game shape. Joining halfway through the season doesn't make sense and joining late in the season makes even less sense. I gotta believe IF anything comes of this, he'll be in camp. Maybe late in camp but he be there.
True. But does it seem like a Donald thing to let the team do the work so he could come in at the end and steal the glory? That's not the AD I want to see and I doubt that is who he is.
I would doubt he would want to go through a training camp.
Plus, coming in later might also help the salary cap.
All true. Guess we’ll see how it all plays out. Still not convinced he comes back.
He's climbed the mountain and was part of a Super Bowl team. The situation with Weddle was out of pure need because the position was so depleted at the end. Most of a Super Bowl win is the journey to get there then finish. I doubt Donald is the type to show up at the destination to be part of that team. He's either all in all year or not at all.
He did skip all of TC while under contract - to get an extension. Again, he was under contract at said time. Everyone else in TC and he held out.
No issues with that. But let’s not pretend AD wants to be there day 1 practicing with everyone and that grind. He cares more about the games.

Big difference between going through TC and coming late in the season. I'd be very surprised if he came back in time to go through TC, but it also doesn't sound like him to come in at the last minute to steal the glory.
Maybe he returns in the first quarter of the season.
No Bouchard or Eric Bloom last night, Buck said he's having surgery and will be back soon. Jules Radino was the drummer.
It was at Isleta Casino in Albuquerque.

First time I saw them was back in 79 or 80 with Black Sabbath
I saw them at what was then the Augusta Richmond Count Civic Center (later known as the James Brown Arena) in Augusta, GA in April of 1986 and at a club on Washington Road (down the road from the Augusta National) in July of 1988.
Not exactly their peak years but they still put on a show. Opened for Rush in '86 and, not surprisingly, outshone the headliner.

First time I saw them was back in 78. Their laser light show blew me away. I've seen them like 3 or 4 other times since then.
