  1. ^ I like it but from what remember of Mark Rippetoe as a writer, he is a poster child for calling anyone who disagrees with him stupid.
  2. Ha, don’t knock the rainforest, bro. A-Rod went on to win back-to-back MVPs following his first rainforest trip.
  3. This. Let him take a break and to do so I think the staff should just announce he has some random physiological injury to help save him from the media fallout. If he personally decides to talk about it later he can, but it’s up to him.
  4. Here is another cogent explanation of the casing messages, groypers, and Robinson’s connection to them.
  5. We’ll see how the next game goes but seems pretty clear the immensity and weight of all the pressure and noise got to be too much. I feel for him. I’d like to think he could flip a mental switch, stop overthinking, tap into something primal and just say “fuck it”. In reality he probably needs to be sat but staff should say it’s an injury, something semi-serious. At that point he needs to leave campus for at least a few weeks and do some kind of deep mental health work.
  6. All of the twitter bots and trash maga accounts have been deployed and repeating the “he was leftist” refrain now. Any posts about the groyper angle are being obscured or ratioed. It’s all very unsurprising but extremely difficult to watch unfold.
  7. Where did I state there wouldn’t be inexperienced top tier teams going forward? Sure there will. I don’t think that with our resources and with the transfer portal that we should be one of them.
  8. This is fine but is viewing the situation through the lens of 2000’s BCS era college football. In 2025 there shouldn’t be an excuse for a program like ours to be green and inexperienced. By next year, many of the experienced players from this season will have gone to the NFL or transferred out.
  9. Gibson has shown most explosiveness of the RBs todY
  10. After everything that’s been made known about how sophisticated sign stealing is in college football, I’m still confused why Sark doesn’t do more to try and obscure his mouth on the sideline.
  11. Seriously though, 2023 Jake Ferguson catches that last end zone pass.
  12. Pickens was more interested in selling the PI than actually catching it. Totally could’ve grabbed that.
  13. The drama of this right now isn’t ideal for him but ultimately I think it helps Schotty. Micah is unfiltered and petulant. Schotty does not have skins on the wall like McCarthy, and so what was going to happen when (not if) Micah developed doubts about the staff?
  14. Having a big Johnson helps to increase odds on the fade.
  15. I was thinking the same thing. “Only angry people win football games”
  16. Talk about the BB’s being out of the fucking box.
  17. Would the rest of the league cut Nico slack when he’s looking for a job in 2-3 years if this Adelson Vegas theory is true and he’s just an errand boy? Would he get a pass because they know he’s just being a good soldier? If not, why would he put himself in a position to have to be the face of this whole thing and not just peace out like DeLoss when told he needed to can Mack? We’ll continue to find out more, but for now I think it was primarily Nico, maybe a few others in his circle like Fin, that had some deep personal issues with Luka and went out on their own with this. Just personal animosity, mixed with hubris and incompetence.
  18. Yeah, setting aside anything emotional about the trade, I still haven’t gotten over the fact the Mavs only got one first round pick out of this. Unbelievable level of incompetence.
  19. Listening to Nico in their press-conference, I’m wondering if he’s like Verbal from Usual Suspects. Room temp IQ, bumbling, stuttering about whatever bullshit only to throw everyone off the scent of some supervillain Keyser Soze master plan. Because there has to be more to this, right? Or is the motherfucker just that dumb?
  20. Yep. Despite what fans think of Jerry, I believe the vast majority of players, former and current, like and/or at least respect Jerry. You can see it in his interactions in the old Hard Knocks and the more recent Cowboys season of All or Nothing. He’s charismatic with them and I can imagine they admire his story of becoming wealthy starting from where he did. Almost none of that applies to Stephen.
  21. Would DQ have won that game tonight (and last week too) with Dak at QB instead of Jayden Daniels?
  22. Nope I’m saying if a place has been around long enough, 1977 in Trudy’s case, there’s a really good chance there’s at least a few things they do well, or did well for a long time.
  23. Like a lot of other places that have been around a while and that people like to shit on, it’s all about knowing the right menu items to order. At Trudy’s, it was chorizo stuffed chicken, stuffed avocado, or fish tacos. If you fucked up and ordered fajitas, you were gonna have a bad time. (Note, I can only speak to their food from around ‘05-‘15).
