Podcasts about eligible

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul and JR recap the Rams game, the terrible effort from Matthew Stafford, the MVS-like effort of Van Jefferson, the general trouble the Packers have with Jeffersons, and Joe Barry as a potential head coaching candidate after the season, which is just brain-destroying to think about.  They also heap praise on the defense, especially Rasul Douglas, Adrian Amos, and Rashan Gary, criticize PFF grades, rely on PFF grades, discuss their most feared playoff opponents, tell you if this was a “Mason Miss” or not, and answer all kinds of listener questions, from the difference between kick and punt returners, to how AJ Dillon stacks up to Eddie Lacy, to how lon Yosh will be on this team, and where he plays, and how good he actually is!  Finally, on next week's show we will be preparing for the Bears by making fun of them.

Reporting as Eligible - Two Injured Tackles, One Kupp On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul and special guess Evan “Tex” Western return to all of the weirdness that was the Vikings game. The dropped picks! The penalties! The missed field goals. They also talk about how not weird the missed field goals are, how Justin Jefferson is awesome, Paul's brush with stardom, Thanksgiving side dishes and EQ's future playing time. The guys then proceed to the Rams, and how they have a better quarterback, and a healthy Aaron Donald against not-Elgton Jenkins, and a healthy Cooper Kupp, and sort of cower in fear. But they also provide at least a smidgen of hope based on recent performances by Matthew Stafford and some poor run defense. Plus listener questions! Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul explains why your Packer stock is perfectly fine stock, and why everyone who wants Packer stock trading on the Nasdaq is a dope while Matt revels in his newfound ownership, and his TV appearance.

This monthly live webinar focuses on relevant genetics topics by featuring discussions with thought leaders and experts in genomic medicine. In this podcast episode we are sharing an installment of the PhenoTips Speaker Series, “The Adoption and Impact of Digital Tools in Genetic Counseling”. This episode features a panel of genetic counselors, who are digital champions at their respective practices, discuss the impact of digital tools on their departments as well as their experience and insights championing the adoption of digital tools.As genetic testing becomes increasingly common, genetic counselors face increasing demand that they struggle to meet due to low numbers of genetic professionals in clinical care. Supplementing genetic counseling practice with digital tools is necessary in order to provide essential services while mitigating burnout, but genetic counselors and genetic departments face significant barriers to adoption. To help lessen these barriers, PhenoTips invited genetic counselors Scott Weissman, Amy Taylor and Andrew McCarty to share their experiences becoming digital champions, gathering departmental support, and the clinical impact their departments have experienced since adoption.Dr. Amy Taylor is the Lead Consultant Genetic Counsellor at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. With over a decade of experience in Genetic Counseling, she heads a team of 14 Genetic Counsellors who provide high quality service to patients in the East Anglia region.

Amy's articles have been published in prestigious journals such as Clinical Genetics and Journal of Medical Genetics.Andrew McCarty is a Laboratory Genetic Counselor at Perkin Elmer Genomics. He also operates a private practice based out of Pittsburgh called Clover Genetics working to improve access to genetic services. With a passion for providing genetic education to healthcare providers, students, and individuals seeking care, Andrew has authored numerous scholarly articles, including research on the use of the digital tool Proband in pedigree construction and assessment published in the Journal of Genetic Counseling.Scott Weissman, an NSGC Digital Ambassador, has over 15 years of experience in adult-onset genetic disorders and cancer genetics. He is the founder Chicago Genetic Consultants, LLC and the Cancer Services Lead at tele-genetics provider Genome Medical. Scott has worked with patient advocacy groups (FORCE, Bright Pink, CCARE) as well as lectured across the country on a variety of topics related to genetic counseling and testing. Scott's scholarly articles have been published in prestigious journals such as Genetics in Medicine, Cancer, The Journal of the American Medical Association, Journal of Genetic Counseling, and many more.In this panel discussion moderated by DNA Today's Founder, Producer and Host, Kira Dineen, CGC, Amy Taylor, Scott Weissman, and Andrew McCarty draw on personal experiences to provide insights on:The clinical impact of digital tools in genetic departments through examples from their years of practiceTheir journey of gathering departmental support for adoption of digital toolsThe techniques that allow genetic counselors and genetic departments to overcome challenges in digital tool adoption.Stay tuned for the next new episode of DNA Today on November 12th!

On this week's episode, JR and Paul discuss the Bucks cool transformer ring, the Packers slow slow beatdown of the Bears, why they're so slow, whether they're actually good at offense or defense, what would happen if they lost Davante, and the difficulties in adjusting for strength of schedule. Also, like all of the Football Team's players are hurt, and the defense has regressed from basically the best in the league to the worst, and Ryan Fitzpatrick is hurt, as well as most of their offensive line and skill position players. And their owners are evil. All of that said, Chase Young and Montez Sweat are good, and the Washington defensive front is excellent. Is this the key to the game? Maybe!

In this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, JR, and Matt discuss the gloriousness of Davante Adams and how Amari Rodgers is sort of the polar opposite of that. They also discuss red zone issues, the need for another receiver to step up, Bob being bad, Allen being absent, Cobb being cromulent, and Taylor being tall. They also discuss the red zone woes of the defense who haven't stopped anyone, but also praise Joe Barry, De'Vondre Campbell, Kenny Clark, and really the entire secondary, even Kevin King. He played well! Until he got hurt. Plus listener questions, and a brief lament about the Brewers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Brooklyn Nets dropped a bomb on Tuesday with the announcement that Kyrie Irving wouldn't be part of the team this season unless he was deemed eligible for full activities after being vaccinated. It was a pretty stunning move by Brooklyn all things considered and calls into question how this season now plays out for the team. Sean Marks released a statement about the move and then did a follow-up press conference explaining the decision. The Nets ultimately did not want to have Kyrie Irving around in a part-time fashion and now it will be interesting to see how their superstar reacts to the decision. The Locked on Nets guys break down the move by Brooklyn, the quote from Sean Marks, and what the future holds for the team.  Subscribe to the Locked on Nets YouTube channel now!

Any time a game has 98 points scored we're going to walk away with a lot to talk about! It's a long episode of the podcast this week as we break down what went well for UTSA in their quest to protect their undefeated record against Western Kentucky. We also preview a Rice team who comes into San Antonio on a bit of a run. 4:00 - The explanation for why UTSA isn't ranked yet is really quite simple. Half of these voters have never heard of UTSA! 10:32 - Alamodome Audible-sponsored Frank Harris dropped the greatest single game performance from a Roadrunner quarterback in program history 15:54 - UTSA busts open the full play book to out-shoot Western Kentucky's air raid to the tune of 52 points 30:30 - The Roadrunners' defense really struggled to get stops against WKU's amazing offense, but how much of that was WKU being good, vs UTSA being bad? 40:43 - How was Western Kentucky able to run the ball so effectively against UTSA? Should we be concerned moving forward? 48:52 - Man, the Roadrunner secondary continues to get exposed. We attempt to break down what's causing UTSA's back end to be so porous against the deep ball. 1:01:47 - Rice travels to San Antonio seeking their first win over their feathered brethren since 2014, a streak that feels unbelievable for year one fans of UTSA's football program 1:22;45 - Can UTSA break the 25k mark for attendance on homecoming against a well-recognized regional opponent? We sure hope so!

Jen has been all over the internet lately telling the world that the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework is a dumpster fire of a bill.
