Hicks has kinda quietly had a very nice NFL career. $43 million earned (and counting) and a Super Bowl ring. One of our better players from a pretty dark era of Texas football.

Buddy if we ain't worrying about the numbers, what are we even doing here?

Does FSU have any DBs we can take?

It’s like an NFL fight greatest hits collection. We’ve got Raiders/Chargers, a guy sleeping, fat chicas throwing hands. Starting the season off by playing the classics.

Lions just fucking bullied them in OT.

You probably mean this: https://docs.google.com/file/d/1TzoBTIvCXfZIk7Sz3C9txMg0yPvrXyVM/edit?usp=docslist_api&filetype=msexcel As always, props to @AP101S, who created and maintains it. Should be pinned at the top of the recruiting board, IMO.

Their lack of talent was pretty jarring. The TE and a couple of the pieces on D could play for a contender, that’s about it. Reading their fan boards, the cupboard is bare among sophomores and freshmen too. They love Harbaugh now but they may reevaluate him eventually. Seems like he burned this motherfucker to the ground on his way out.

That Michigan blogger told me last week that they had a million "dangermen" and we had like 2. Incredible that we managed to beat them with such a wild mismatch in talent.

I heard Mbatchou has never actually laid eyes on a football before. He’s more like a theoretical construct, really.

First big forecasting miss of the season on this one. ”Nothing to see here” ”Nothing to see here” ”Nothing to see here” “Oh shit tropical storm into Houston”

I never doubted Kenny Baker for a second. Elite hire. All according to plan.

Is that our first sack of the year?

They just get a free shot on our QB?

Feels like we’ve been pretty bad on 1st down

Watched this last night. So much interesting stuff in it. Herculean effort by Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie (after hosting an awards show!) to keep it on track. Geldof giving a speech to get everyone’s minds right. Al Jarreau getting too drunk to sing. Bob Dylan - IMO one of the top 5 most influential people in the room - lacking confidence because he’s way out of his comfort zone. The insane transcendent talent of MJ and Stevie Wonder. Waylon Jennings peacing out when they start talking about putting in Swahili lyrics (Wikipedia says they talked him into coming back but that’s not shown in the doc). A guy like Steve Perry standing around for hours and then nailing his one line in one try. Huey Lewis just being a normal everyday guy and proxy for the audience. And on and on. On top of all that, just watching the background and seeing so many megastars just kinda standing around hanging out is wild. My biggest question is how/why they didn’t get Madonna. They mentioned her for one second early on and showed her at the awards ceremony but never addressed why she didn’t participate.

That was an exceptionally poor offensive series with the game on the line

I resent this post and you should be ashamed of yourself. You completely forgot to mention interminable posts about a stupid fucking flag at a stupid fucking hotel that no one gives a fuck about.

Taylor get the cupgrade?

X and Rice gonna absolutely EAT for the Chiefs this year. Hope you got em on your fantasy team

I read that whole Michigan writeup and I can't believe the guy is going with "I haven't heard of these WRs so they must not be very good". We might not have an individual as good as X or Mitchell (as of right now, at least), but we go legitimately 5 deep, probably 6 deep, with guys that can absolutely hurt you. He does make good points about their DL against our interior OL. It's a strength against a weakness. If they can pressure Quinn with 4, we'll have a lot of trouble sustaining drives. I wouldn't say that staying calm in the face of pressure is one of Quinn's strengths.

Dude makes $10mm a year. He could hit the market looking like Mark Mangino and be just fine.

It's OK, I'll admit it: I have no fucking clue what a "1 play player" is. Is that a typo? Some sort of football hipster terminology I'm not familiar with?

Me when anyone talks about how slow the season has been so far relative to forecasts:

I know people feel some kind of way about Dak right now, but it's pretty fucking incredible that the Cowboys lucked into a very good QB with an UDFA signing, then when he broke down they immediately lucked into a very good replacement with a 4th round pick and yet....they haven't won jack shit over that time span.

Spencer Rattler is getting a taste of the NFL. DJU gonna be working at Burger King this time next year.
