Isn't Flo Adams deaf in his right ear?

Or is it just partially deaf? Seriously, he had alot of problems in college (MSU) with false starts until the coaches finally came out and told people to lay off because he as a hearing issue with his right ear. I'm 99% sure on this: can anyone back me up or am I dreaming this? BTW, I missed the game today, but I hear he ate Jason Taylor up.:starspin

He has some level of deafness in an ear. I'm just expecting him to do it at least twice a game. It's reaching ludicre status.

It doesn't matter how deaf he is, espically on the road, tackes are suppose to look at the ball, when it moves they move. Flo tries to move when the DE moves, so everytime they jump, he jumps.

Thanks Hostile. NOT looking to make excuses, just saying......now I know it's the LEFT so there is NO excuse obviously. I watched alot of other games today, and it is common enough. But he's had this problem for years, so.......I guess we have to live with it.

I keep repeating the same thing to stop Flozell's false starts:

1. joybuzzer
2. joybuzzer placed on Flozell's butt
3. trigger for joybuzzer
4. trigger placed in Romo's hand

Problem solved.

:cool:

Like John Madden said.....Flo leads the universe in false starts.

If that isn't enough motivation to get your concentration level up, then what can be?

I tell you what if Flo keeps stoning defenders like he did Jason Taylor today I can live with a 5 yard penalty a week

Yeah, I couldn't really be too mad about 10 yards worth of penalties when he pretty much owned the defending DPOY.

Good point. It just gets so frustrating sometimes knowing that he's going to jump at some point in the game--usually near or in the redzone.

Personally, I just think he's dumb between the ears.

I am really getting tired of seeing these things. It's a good thing we were playing the phins and not someone like the Pats or the Colts.

A lesson in bilateral hearing loss:

Everything you hear goes in one ear. You have no way to filter out what you don't want to hear. You can't tell which direction the 'noise' is coming from.

Not to mention Flo is more upset with himself than any of us could ever be.

That's the same thing Summerall said about Jackie Smith, but he was wrong. He wasn't nearly as upset as I was. In fact I still think he's a turd. A HOF turd, but a turd nonetheless.

It's always comforting to know that someone besides me is still pissed about that pass Smith dropped. Thanks for sharing. :)

Your welcome. I can hold a grudge with the best of them:lmao2:

Roger, bless his heart, is so classy though. He said it wasn't Smith's fault and that he was lucky to even get his hands on the ball. Love Staubach. Hate Smith.

Do you see how far off the ball our tackles line up on pass plays? If Flo looks to the right, he'll just see the side of Kozier, not the ball.
