It’s happening?

Always curious to see where…

Always curious to see where/when these types of threads go South. Got through quite a few comments to get to that point. Blog seems to be mellowing out and more civil about politics last few months.

I don’t even mind political comments of either side if well thought out and not slamming someone but this adds nothing to the conversation. 

I’ll concur…I’m as big a sci…

I’ll concur…I’m as big a sci fi fan there is. I wanted to like Dune so much, but didn’t last past the opening 30-45 min and couldn’t finish.
 

Blade Runner original and 2049 might make my top 10 list 🤷‍♂️ 

First thought was that’s…

First thought was that’s ridiculous, but thinking about it, that sounds about right. Last season we would’ve had Oregon, Wash, UM and OSU clearly within the top 14. Same would go for SEC with the teams they are swallowing up.

*THIS*

*THIS*

Hard no…no reason other than…

Hard no…no reason other than straight $$. Will turn into scenario like 6-6 teams getting a bowl. Cheapens the entire product. College tourney is hands down best and most thrilling postseason in the world imho, don’t mess with it.

I think it’s obvious no one…

I think it’s obvious no one here would oppose a show or network devoted to black culture. I think the pushback would come from *if* there is an explicit requirement of a certain melanin content for employment.

Mel Tugger, that’s gold!!!!😂

Wow, we have a winner! Overall pretty good discourse and civil until this.
 

Love your extrapolation from a couple unhinged people to half of the country being afraid of being murdered for political views. Asinine conclusion.

Have been watching football…

You simply never touch a coach, much less bump or push. Not really even a question or debate. He acted like a maniac. Dude needs to grow up and get a handle on his emotions. 

Also tired of all things Kelce. 

Less about actual football…

Less about actual football and more a cultural event. That said, Lion's up 24-7 and fumbling chance at first SB still has me very salty and likely won't watch because it will be too painful. Taylor Swift doesn't help either. 

Likely sitting this one out…

Likely sitting this one out for that very reason, hurts my heart too much. Had they lost as expected I would’ve been fine, but I had let myself mentally put the Lions in the SB after they were up 24-7 at half. TS is mildly irritating and puts it over the edge. Pass.

Post 2020 he’s been a…

Post 2020 he’s been a different man altogether. I believe He’s said as much. 

Doubt I'll watch

1) Swift…

Doubt I'll watch

1) Swift coverage is irritating. However, I can't believe a sane person would really be "enraged" by it. 

2) More so, watching a potential 49er victory would be too much for my heart to take after letting myself mentally envision the Lions actually playing in the SuperBowl when they were up 24-7 at half. Should be Detroit getting the spotlight and the feel good story. Loss was just as crushing as the TCU loss. 

Alas, Ben Johnson coming back for "unfinished business" Hmm, where did we hear that before? There is hope!

I’m stunned at this JJ take…

I’m stunned at this JJ take. There has to be more (??) that I’m missing. Transactional bc he was here for 3 years, declared early for a draft in which he’s got a very good chance to be in the first round, and work his way up to just outside the top 10? 
 

Played hurt, never said a word about being underutilized, seemed a 100% team guy to me. 

This set to the old time…

This set to the old time clown jingle is one of the single best sports parody clips I’ve ever seen in my life. I’ve probably seen it at least 50x

If TS is there, I am not…

If TS is there, I am not watching. Your move NFL.

2023 Lions up 24-7 until the…

2023 Lions up 24-7 until the 2008 Lions we’ve all known and loved our entire lives showed up and turned it into a 34-24 deficit. 

Overall neutral on Pats but…

Overall neutral on Pats but did root for them bc of Brady. FWIW, Brady appears to be the engine behind that run and NOT Belicheck.

Howard stays.

Howard stays.

I like to believe it’s…

I like to believe it’s pronounced as it’s spelled, just as Forest Gump would pronounce it “Gun-Narr”

Jason Hanson.

Lifetime Lion…

Jason Hanson.

Lifetime Lion and one of the best at his position. Not many can claim both of those outside of the aforementioned in OP.

Donte Curry

Bobby Ross going for 2 against Arizona.

Morhninweg taking the wind on OT vs Chicago

IIRC, he’s on record telling Warde his anual NFL dalliance wouldnt be an issue anymore. If he does come back I’d have to assume that simply becomes an annual thing? I can’t imagine that dream would just vanish.

Was interesting simply…

Was interesting simply scrolling through Cameo. Of note:

Jenner highest asking price at $2.5k

Martelli, Jon Jansen, were on the site.

Antonio Brown is not well.

So he’s completed his MD and…

So he’s completed his MD and is now doing clinicals at U Miami Medical Center?

I feel very weird at my age…

I feel very weird at my age using that word. Mike S was my fav player, all 5-10 of him and playing the position only 2 years. Team leader of the D. 

*too*

*too*

Why would he do that to…

Why would he do that to himself? Fan base will demand 1 national championship every 3 years minimum. 

While the football team was…

While the football team was pure excellence on the field, board topics have markedly declined in substance post championship. Every fleeting thought seems to be a posted as a topic. Pump the brakes.

I wonder where things stand…

I wonder where things stand in regard to transparency. I would be interested to see NIL package deals made public like every single other professional league in the world. No one would argue CFB is anything but a professional league (at major universities at least) at this point. 

I think a position switch to…

I think a position switch to Guard would do him well.

Colston Loveland vs whoever…

Colston Loveland vs whoever Bama puts on him has to happen this drive. I’d say the same for Edwards running routes but that ship has inexplicably sailed

Shared with Alabama friends…

Shared with Alabama friends in jest. Stereotypes can be fun.

Oh so close to setting the…

Oh so close to setting the record on Festivus.

My Mom is into blonde ales, lol, seriously. Not my thing but thanks for sharing. Love their GR brewpub, very nice spot.

I should have clarified, Tex…

I should have clarified, Tex and Bama being in is what I think will happen, not what I think *should* happen. FSU should be in and Bama watch them play from home.

It will be UT and Bama. All…

It will be UT and Bama. All the talking heads saying it and wanting it.
 

That said, can’t stand the criteria of best “current” team. In that respect, doesn’t matter that Bama shit themselves against USF, Arkansas. Essentially, telling CFB world the beginning of the season is largely irrelevant.

Not to mention a pitiful…

Not to mention a pitiful performance against USF, AND hanging on for dear life against a wretched Arkansas team at home no less. Screw Alabama and the SEC. See you next year.

SEC doesn’t NEED…

SEC doesn’t NEED representation. Texas won head to head, they’re in ahead of Bama. Lest we forget Bama was a hop skip and jump away from losing to freaking USF. Hate the argument that games now matter more than games from Sep. Screw that, they all matter equally. It’s a full resume throughout the year, not just the current “hottest” team.

This needs to be stuck at…

This needs to be stuck at the top of the board for the next few weeks. Awesome.

As he should be! Don’t mind…

As he should be! Don’t mind talking heads pulling for “their” team at all. As long as we are represented (Dez, Woodson) I enjoy the back and forth. Don’t want to hear that in the booth (Joel, Gus), but otherwise makes it more fun on set.

Are they high? Louisville…

Are they high? Louisville had an outside shot of a CFP if they won out and completely shit the bed at home to a mediocre UK team. 

Nice job keeping that injury…

Nice job keeping that injury during the week under “wraps”

Jim should do some…

Jim should do some prerecorded “Go Blue” type message that plays on the Jumbotron during timeouts and third downs.
