I'd have to go with Chris Cornell from Soundgarden on their third album, Badmotorfinger. Song is Slaves and Bulldozers. Dude has incredible range.

Would have been classic rant material. :lol:
I find it kind of strange that they initially arested him for all that this morning and now he's released and their not commenting until Monday.
I've just started using google hangouts as my messaging app and like it quite a bit. The only bells and whistles type thing I miss on it is the text pop up box like on gosms or some others.
I've always thought practicing in BWA had a lot to do with our record there, wonder if the practice facility will affect that?
I can say that the arenas are set up differently, BWA was built to be all about crowd noise the way a basketball Palace should be. Verizon was built to accommodate more things than basketball. Kind of like the rca dome where Syracuse plays, they're crowd sounds dead with 25,000 fans because of its size. I think Verizon is somewhere between 60k and 80k sqft larger than BWA as well.

Everyone has their own opinions on things, so I'll throw mine in the mix on the having a degree discussion as opposed to the kids letter to the ADG.

I think we (society) have gone completely overboard on the "Go to college, get a degree and get a great paying job" spill. There are far too many people getting a degree these days that have no business being near a four year institution and it's watering down the "college educated" product.

There needs to be way more emphasis on specialty training or vocational school because the average high school education in this country is not producing people that are prepared for university level learning.

It's also creating a lot of "Degree debt" for young people because the level of job they could have gotten 10-15 years ago is now filled by someone that has a post graduate degree. That bachelor's degree recipient ends up with a low paying job that didn't require four years of schooling and $20-60,000 worth of debt.

I know, tldr
Do you think that ratio goes up or down with a more efficient passing game?
Do they call more passes because they're productive, or do they call more runs because the defense isn't stacking the line?

Obviously, it could be different on a per game basis, but I think over a complete season it would even out to what it is now, about 60/40 run (percentage of plays called).
I haven't paid much attention to the "home" boards, but when I do venture over, I'm astounded by the amount of dumb people that can use the interwebs. It scares me.
:bow:
I probably need to stop posting or I'll hit my yearly quota of 19 in one thread.
I agree to a certain extent, but we're not just talking about offenses, defenses or going for it on forth down more than most. We're talking about a guy that only punts about 5% of the time. I think his attitude would change on kickoffs because of the larger average field position change in college vs. high school.
Hell, I have no idea if it would work or not, but it would be exciting as hell to watch in college.
Yeah, no. I don't think that would translate well to the SEC. Big 12, probably, but not here. I think I actually heard him say in another interview that a college AD would be crazy to hire him as a coach and let him run his style of play.
I think the talent there gets overrated a bit and his actual coaching ability and superb staff get overlooked by the average fan. I think He could take his style and staff to a larger Public school in central Arkansas and be very, very good.
Yes, I cut the proverbial "cable cord" a couple of years ago. My neighbor has Uverse and gave me his logon info. I've got HBO and ESPN using his stuff and subscribe to Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime on XBOX. With my subs and Uverse internet bill, I pay a grand total of about $65 a month for everything. :dude:
