  1. I’m sure these civilians are thrilled about their “evacuation”, AKA the seizure of their property and forced relocation to refugee camps. I guess I understand why we aren’t going to send troops into Ukraine to prevent it but it’s pretty frustrating to see Europe kicking off another world war. Germany, France, etc. not taking the lead here is pretty weak.
  2. So the next move is that “Ukraine” bombs the “fleeing civilians” and Russia moves in to “protect” them?
  3. Such a coincidence that Ukraine is gonna attack at just the moment Moscow has massed an invasion force on their borders! Right place, right time for the Russians I guess!
  4. I am dumbfounded every time I see this picture.
  5. Car sales incur state tax. Therefore, a paper plate should never exist without a corresponding tax transaction. In order to generate a temporary paper plate, you need a tax confirmation generated when the payment is made to the state. My consulting fee is negotiable.
  6. He can look forward to dividing his assets into two piles and getting to keep one.
  7. How do you think that first conversation with the AD went? Harsin: I need another 150k in the budget. I want an assistant HC. AD: Good idea. What are you thinking? Maybe a HC with a winning track record in D2? Or a position coach from a recruiting hotbed state? Harsin: uh….I’m actually thinking of taking this in a slightly different direction. She was a, um, cheerleader back at Boise State. AD: how does this qualify for a position on a high profile college football coaching staff? Harsin: well most recently she was an intern hosting recruits during their on campus visits. AD: …… …….. Don’t fuck this up.
  8. But they paid McKinsey $772,900 for focus groups and market research. Clearly Chase doesn’t understand marketing.
  9. For Flores sake, I hope he has some evidence other than the texts from Bill.
  10. XP are 33 yards. LOS is the 15. The issue with analytics is that they are true **assuming** a very large sample set. The outcome your one shot at the goal line is not driven by the 40 year data set on which the statistics are based. More importantly, the analytics tell you what to do in that situation in isolation. I.e. the expected points for going for 2 there were 1.01 vs 0.99 for XP, so go for it right? No. You can’t possibly predict the effect that the missed conversion will have on subsequent game situations (or the make, for that matter). Tennessee almost certainly wins the game by taking the XP in this game, and no analytics will ever be able to comprehend this level of complexity.
  11. Had Tennessee taken the XP to start the game they would have been running the ball to kill the clock on that final drive and Tannehill never would have had a chance to turn it over. These coaches really overthink things.
  12. Bet the Titans would love to have that XP from earlier. …..but but ANALYTICS!
  13. Wrong thread
  14. Honestly the whole “analytics” trend has led to a bunch of dumbass decisions all over the league. The Chargers going for it on 4th and 3 at their own 30 in the final game of the regular season comes to mind. We all remember Tom Herman’s binder too. Sometimes the easy decision is the best one. Take the XP and the lead.
  15. The best outcome is that we fire PK and give Gary full control of the defense.
  16. The shine definitely came off Kingsbury last night. He may be lucky to open the season as the Cards HC next season.
  17. Edelman medically retired due to issues with his knee.
  18. Interesting job just posted. Anyone planning to apply?

  20. It seems like the Jaguars owner isn’t a piece of shit and really tries to do everything to make the team competitive. He just sucks at it.
  21. Gundy is probably the most impressive coach in the Big 12. He never loses his cool (except in press conferences) and doesn’t overreact to early adversity. Amazing how rare of a quality that seems to be.
  22. This year’s OL recruiting class is probably the first in at least 15 years that adequately addresses a glaring need. We’ve had multiple head coaches, and even more coordinators, who haven’t had the basic awareness to recruit the second most important position on the field.
  23. It’s a wonder Tom Herman got along with this guy.
  24. That was the exact title of the article. All of this outrage over nothing lol. KM had the best high school career because he never lost. VY obviously better in college.
