Can I down-vote more than once? When are people gonna learn that baseball isn’t a 1-game kind of game. It’s a long season. I didn’t think Holman was going to pitch the whole season without giving up a run, but I think his first 24 or so innings are more indicative of his talent than tonight’s inn...

My wife and I love this series. We’re in Season 2. We’ve had a tortuous journey with our faith and our practice. But we love this portrayal of Jesus and his disciples. I read the posts debating who founded what religion, and I think Jesus would shake his head, smile and say, “Follow me”…or “Go, and...
The last time the US had negative inflation, or deflation, where consumer prices decrease, was 2007-2008. That time is known as the Great Recession. We don’t want to go back to that kind of economy....
Most prices aren’t going to go back down. Gasoline prices will always fluctuate but I think our refineries are producing at full capacity, so as long as demand stays high, so will prices. If prices of all consumer goods decrease, that will mean a recession or depression. We really don’t want the CP...
Probably not all, but I bet that several of those recruits asked him if he was going to retire. I wonder what they were told....
Before Saban, our identity was a scrappy underdog with a rabid, rowdy fan base that would make Saturday night in Tiger Stadium miserable for opponents. We woild win 8-9 games a season, travel to a bowl game, and pull off a major upset every couple of years or so. And we were happy with that. Saba...
This is where I think the NIL money gets too hazy. The NCAA’s approach is that private entities could pay players, but that the schools wouldn’t be involved. But now we have a guy apparently holding out for more money, which the school or coach, ostensibly, can’t give him. I’m sure that the coaches...
“I absolutely adore the scene where the young Vito Corleone (played by Robert De Niro) stalks Don Fanucci before killing him in The Godfather Part II.“ Rolltide1987 - I immediately thought of this when I read the OP. And after the hit, he breaks the pistol up and drops the pieces down random roof...
The article says and the included graph shows that the CPI for all items is up 3.1% over last year, and the CPI less food and energy up 4%. Some of the posters are apparently saying that the media are excluding food and energy to make it look better. But that’s not true. Excluding those volatile com...

re: Would you take 2019 back to win 2011?

Posted by jrbjr on 10/26/23 at 12:45 am
the hurt makes the wins better Tvilletiger-that’s my mantra. OP posed a great question, but the reality is always the best outcome. Not to get too much into existentialism or any philosophy. 2019 is great, maybe the greatest CFB season ever by a team, but to us, it’s made greater by our experienc...
The first ever replay review that happened prior to replay existing in college football I was at that game. Dinardo era I believe. 3rd Quarter of a tight game and we muffled a Bama punt but obviously recovered. Refs inexplicably signaled 1st down Bama. During the ensuing tv commercial break, the ...

Very personal for me. Brought my 7- yr old son to the Earthquake game. We were sitting in the North end zone. Cheered the whole game. The climax happened right in front of us. I picked him up so he could see. When Fuller caught the td, I looked at him and he was looking up to the sky with both arms ...
I saw this play develop from the north end zone. I thought it was a great stunt to give Perkins a free sprint to the QB. It worked beautifully but we lost containment in the middle. The DL slanted left, so not sure if Swinson or Smith was responsible for that lane. I agree with OP. Good call and h...
