Given how much of an impact automation technology makes on industry, the economy, and our own daily lives, I thought it might be good to highlight one of the stalwarts in modern civilized society. The turnstile. We could be saving a lot in cap space if we simply invited automation to the process (within league rules). We would be pioneering a whole new way to play the game, Think about it. They don't require benefits, compensation, health insurance, training, or even food. They do one job, and one job only: block unauthorized access. Granted, unauthorized access is still possible by simply jumping them (waist-high bar turnstiles), but still. They do their job well for the most part. So I ask, what are some of the key differences between our offensive line and this row of NYPT turnstiles? I know they don't keep sack statistics for turnstiles, but please... Please help identify some of the key differences between our offensive line and a row of turnstiles. Thanks in advance.
I'll start: Tyson Clabo [TABLE="class: infobox vcard"] [TR] [TD="colspan: 2"]Date of birth: October 17, 1981 (age 31)[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 2"]Place of birth: Knoxville, Tennessee[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 2, align: center"] [TABLE="width: 100%"] [TR] [TD]Height: 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m)[/TD] [TD="align: center"]Weight: 329 lb (149 kg)[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] Is relatively mobile, yet this somehow seems a moot point.

The question is this...if we put a 300 pound sack of crap, where Jon Martin lines up..what is the difference between Martin and the sack of crap in impeding a rush?
