  1. Probably. Our best bet is that 1. QE stunts on them and 2. Sanders offers to lose the game personally as he seems to do about 4 or 5 times a year.
  2. Was the F35 demo the C model pictured or the A?
  3. NC State isn’t a top 10 team, and what one does against a Mike Leach Jekyll and Hyde team doesn’t matter. That’s a bad tech team that will get curb stomped several times this season. We are not a good team in our current iteration, but that could start to change when Ewers gets back. We are a very high delta team given our youth key spots and lack of depth or ability at others.
  4. This is what I assumed. Previous game was on the Saturday a week before and then they have 10 days off before the next one.
  5. Please, please, please vacate your secondary against UT’s receivers. I beg you to leave Worthy, Whitt, Ro or Bijan singled up against your second, third, and fourth best DB’s. Please do this. Quinn Ewers dealing into single coverage is pretty low on my list of worries for this offense. Him needing to throw deep outs to the far hash behind his back is kinda what that mulleted MF’er does. I’d be more worried about a competent defense playing drop 8 against him and having a talented back 7 that can quickly crash down to make their light front right. Which probably isn’t TTU.
  6. They were by default. As we seemed to play as though we were unaware of what the limitations would be for a team that lost its top 4 tackles and had a walk-on getting playing time.
  7. If the forecast weather or conditional language therein meets the departure requirements then you go. Carrying extra fuel is inefficient. Yes, this time it didn’t work out, but on the whole it does.
  8. Of course it's company policy never to, imply ownership in the event of a dildo... always use the indefinite article a dildo, never your dildo(s).
  9. They’ve already reached a Tentative Agreement. They’re on call all the time and can get bumped off their schedules if someone more senior wants it. It’s a rough lifestyle.
  10. I thought the Zumwalt had issues with following seas. Seems like I read that somewhere. It might be a more attractive ship if the low observable requirements and design phase didn’t make it look like a foreshortened traffic cone. I’ve wondered if “looks right, flies right” applies to ships at sea as the Indy certainly looks a lot more right, but the tumblehome hull does seem to be better suited to handling higher sea states. I’ve seen a move towards that with offshore service vessels, some smaller freighters and a cruise ship or two.
  11. Interesting look from the bow to the rudder. Speaker is a bit annoying, but cool to see up close and under the ship.
  12. That’s a strong RPO look, and hard to ignore. Karic isn’t going to catch any passes so does Bama dare stay in smaller personnel and risk getting run over, relatively speaking, or do they upsize and risk matching a LB or S up on one of our skill players. Bama runs it too. They run a fair amount of the stuff Sark left behind, it’s just BOB runs the etch a sketch version of Sark’s offense and has filthy enough talent to get away with it.
  13. Bama’s a nice “where are we at game.” I fully expect them to beat us by 21. Lees if they’re off and we get hot, and vice versa. ULM wasn’t going to challenge our players much, but our defense often looked like a superior defense should against an overmatched opponent. They were in position and stifling most of the time, and we didn’t exactly empty the playbook to do it. It passed the eyeball test, which is not something I’ve been able to say much in the last decade for that side of the ball.
  14. It’s Groundhog Day for him every year where he wins the title or finishes no worse than 3rd. Must be hellish.
  15. Or maybe the DC who couldn’t coordinate the front and back end last year despite that job duty being in his title got some help from the guy who’s defense he copied in the first place. Lack of talent isn’t an excuse to not match up your defense. Your defenders may not get to where they need to be or make the play, but that doesn’t excuse starting them out of position or running coverages ill suited to what the front is trying to do on a given play. So Sark invites Patterson on down, revamps our safety play and suggests that we institute tighter coverage. Im sympathetic to PK having a staff forced on him, but the inability to have Lake making things right for his secondary was telling. I don’t buy into the “maybe our coaches figured out on their own narrative” when a long time defensive legend shows up to help. I suppose maybe he’s just collecting a check and cutting records, but I doubt it.
  16. It’s early, but it’s also telling that the two halves of the defense appear “coordinated” after the addition of a certain analyst in the offseason. Brockermeyer aint’ it, but it’s worth remembering that he tore his ACL less than a year ago. I’m sure he’s not 100% either physically or, if that’s right, mentally.
  17. I was just thinking of all the times I’ve been on a ship tour and they’ve talked about the crew walking around with a broom out in front of them to detect the steam before it killed them. I guess that would be a greatly reduced threat with the electric drives they’re putting in the Columbias. Still have to turn the generator with it I suppose, but not much else.
  18. That super heated steam is scary stuff if there’s a leak. I can’t remember which ship, but the British actually pressurized the engine room of one of their warships to get extra power out of the engines.
  19. I don’t think they ever refit her with steam turbines. They had plans to, but never followed through.
  20. You can gap to it publicly at least once.
  21. Yeah. The hair is quite bad. You’re not fooling anyone bruh.
