Haha, no worries man. Wasn’t really directed at you, more the others who are probably thinking “here we go again…” :lol: :cheers:...

[quote]So where does that line end? If your wife gave birth prematurely and your newborn cannot breathe without being hooked up to a manmade machine, is that playing god? If not, why not? Completely unnatural to have a machine breathe for you. Why should we sustain any life through medicine? If y...

1) There’s basically one quote from an anonymous former coach, after he’s no longer with the organization, everything else from his time that’s been reported spoke highly of his character.
2) I wouldn’t even be shocked if there was a bit of kernel of truth to it. The whole situation was completel...

They don’t. There’s only been two this century (Thrashers/Jets and Coyotes). That’s fewer than the NBA (Grizzlies, original Hornets/Pelicans, Sonics/Thunder and the Nets if you ...

It was a terrible OL for the first couple of years of Fields’s tenure, and then still bad/below average for most of last year because they dealt with a lot of injuries and had Lucas Patrick at center. But they’ve replaced Patr...
re: Will South Carolina vs. Iowa rate higher than the Men's Final?
Posted by Buckeye Fan 19 on 4/6/24 at 3:59 pm
I think Purdue-UConn would/will beat Iowa-South Carolina. I’m not sure about Purdue-Bama or UConn-NC State.
I think Iowa-South Carolina would beat Bama-NC State, which it’s kind of unfathomable as of as recently as 13 months ago that that’s even remotely plausible....

Nantz and Eagle are both very good and professional, but neither shines when it comes to buzzer beaters, late-game craziness, etc.
Harlan’s voice was made for the chaos of March. Wish he would’ve been chosen instead of Eagle to replace Nantz on CBS’s #1 cbb team....

In 2023, he was 21st out of 41 qualifying QBs according to PFF, 23rd in QBR, 21st in AY/A (which doesn’t factor in any rushing stats at all, including scrambles), 23rd in EPA/dropback (which doesn’t factor in designed runs)… it’s not sucking his di...

[quote] He’ll do ok the first 7/8 games until NFL teams get film. Then he’ll decline as they will take away his scrambles and force him to pass which will lead to errors. His instinct is to run with any pressure. In NFL qbs always get pressure often, so thats where he’ll have to change his instinct....

[quote]10-28 as a starter. Garbage![/quote]
To be fair to Fields, he was a rookie in 2021 and was Dalton’s backup at the start of the year/wasn’t supposed to start as many games as he did on what was a rebuilding/bad team, but Dalton ended up injured for a decent chunk.
The 2022 roster was h...

$250 AF spread
$100 AF ML
$600 profit (after factoring in initial $50 bet) if SDSU covers.
$100 profit if SDSU wins by single digits.
I’m guessing probably around $500-600 profit if AF wins without knowing exact ML, just based on the spread. ...

Seems more like gamesmanship by all three more than anything to me (and I don’t think Tucker is completely innocent either in this). Definitely beyond just “messing” but I also doubt any of the three would say it’s a very big deal or be extremely offended either....
