Historically, the Cleveland Browns haven't had the best of luck when it comes to the quarterback position. However, Bernie Kosar was able to be that beacon of light for the franchise and its fans to draft well at the position. Kosar was known for functioning well in pass-first offenses and was highly efficient when it came to getting the ball to his receivers in clutch moments. Bernie Kosar was so clutch that he started all twelve games at the University of Miami in 1983 after being redshirted in 1982. Kosar led the Hurricanes to their first-ever national championship in 1983 where was MVP of the Orange Bowl. Kosar also fell victim to Doug Flutie's 'Hail Flutie' pass and a loss in the 1985 Fiesta Bowl.
After a successful stint in college and some eligibility controversy, Kosar was drafted 1st overall in the 1985 Supplemental NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns where he would spend the majority of his NFL career. During his tenure with the Browns, Kosar would rack up two Pro Bowl selections in 1987 and 1989 where he would lead the Browns to back-to-back AFC championship games in 1986 and 1987. Unfortunately, after suffering multiple injuries, Kosar and the Browns parted ways and Kosar would sign a contract with the Dallas Cowboys where he would earn a Super Bowl ring as a backup. Kosar played his final three NFL seasons as a member of the Miami Dolphins and ended his career holding the record for most consecutive completed passes without an interception until it was broken by Tom Brady in December 2010.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
