  1. Yea I have a real hard time seeing Zimmerman making it at this point. Would rather bring in the young kid, Banks. I'd still like to see Johnny get a shot again in this new formation we're playing. Part of me wonders if that will fit him better. I know we're all victims of the moment with Roldan having a good showing, but I'm still not convinced Johnny won't be a better option if we can get his club version.
  2. Thank you. I was also getting confused some.
  3. Aaronson has been playing pretty well in the prem this year even though it's not showing up on the stat sheet. Since he was put into the starting line-up, they have 4 points in 4 matches and should have had a draw against Fulham but lost it in stoppage time. I'd still like to have him on the squad, but I'm trying to figure out who I'd leave off to bring him in.
  4. The game plan against Florida was stupid. Sark refused to acknowledge he had an o-line problem and called plays that took too long to develop. Arch was getting the ball out much quicker against OU by necessity. We hardly had any explosives but we also kept ourselves out of a lot of 2nd and a mile. The other issue against Florida was that we had a center and LG who were just physically out-matched, with the LG also just being a terrible football player in general. Brooks is at least not physically out-matched, even if he's still trying to get better at the mental part of the game. That's why it was so frustrating they just threw him out there in the middle of the swamp without any previous game time. I think if they make this change in the Sam Houston game, we probably win in the Swamp.
  5. I'll leave technical analysis to more qualified people, but it was nice that these guys stopped getting stupid penalties after the opening drive. You can work around a leakly O-line if it's not 1st and 15 all the time. If all they did this game was clean that up, that is a massive improvement.
  6. I didn’t realize Ecuador was in 2nd in CONMEBOL qualifying and has only given up 5 goals in 18 matches. That was a pretty good team we had on the ropes without Adams, Dest, and Jedi. Very positive performance for me.
  7. Really surprised Ecuador has backed off so much. Maybe they always try to protect a lead like this?
  8. Balo! Let’s go, boys!
  9. Yea, it was a pretty brutal miss. Completely missed the frame.
  10. Pulisic vs Mckinnie about to kick off in Turin.
  11. Good to see McKinnie, Robinson, Tillman, and Tessmann back. Sands is also an interesting selection.
  12. Pulisic absolutely tearing up Napoli. A goal and an assist in the first 35 minutes.
  13. I remember when several polls came out during the Biden administration that most Americans thought it was wrong to use the justice department to go after political foes. Wonder what that same poll would say now.
  14. Just received from our district:
  15. Also worth noting that Gio came in at the end of this game for Gladbach.
  16. Euless Trinity at Southlake Carroll tonight. Carroll probably the heavy favorite now, but man these games used to be fun.
  17. Maybe our most impressive performance under Poch. We needed that.
  18. We might have found something with this 3 back formation.
  19. It's too late to fire him. If I really squint, I can see what he's trying to do. He wants a set of players to push the "established" starters. It makes sense to try to establish a bottom-up approach, but if we keep losing games by multiple goals, I really think he risks losing the locker room. What he's finding out is there is a massive gap between the starting XI and everyone else and he's just grasping at straws trying to find anyone outside of Luna to push the starters. The other issue is we are just out of time. You have to start building continuity at this point--especially in the backline. Dest, Richards, and Robinson need to be playing every match together and they need to find who is going to play the other CB spot. Running out Blackmon for his first cap was just a complete waste of time. Cannot have shit like that anymore.
  20. Maybe don’t force feed CD if he’s going to pull this bullshit.
  21. Maybe stop trying to pin our ears back and get to Hurts? Like…you’re not getting there and you are leaving gaping holes.
  22. Fowler is over pursuing everything. I’ve seen him get smoked 3 times already.
  23. You have a link? Trying to figure out what exactly the presale is. Like...can I get tickets to any match even though we don't know who is playing yet?
  24. I don't necessarily disagree with this approach, but players like Arfsten, McGlynn, and Blackmon don't belong anywhere near this roster. It just seems like a lost chance to try to develop some continuity.
