Probably wouldn’t be here if they didn’t. Grandfather was in the 6th marines, he got lucky enough to begin with on Okinawa.

[quote]I dealt with the man in his time at LSU and he is a complete POS human being. Great coach, don't get me wrong, but as a human being, one of the worst I've ever seen. This is literally his MO. [/quote]

Hard to call plays when the wr’s are hurt or just plain bad. When Evans went down (who didn’t even need to be in the game at the time) the passing game was going to be nonexis...

[quote]But from an outsider as I have no connection or rivalry/animosity to Michigan, it’s pretty egregious.[/quote]

Cashman is the most overrated gm in the game. One WS can be attributed to him and CC put that pitching staff on his back to get that one. Not a fan of Boone but he can only run out what Cash gives him and it’s been the same crappy formula for the last 10 years. No clue how he got an extension. ...

Scott has spent money that’s it. He might be the best in the long run but just opening up the bank account in his early tenure is pretty easy for administrator.
