  1. I'm never going to defend Charlie Strong, but I will note that I don't recall gun issues in the locker room, legal liability issues, claims of bankruptcy, nor social media "events" during his tenure. Coach Prime is in a league of his own.
  2. I don't deny the basic premise of Big XII picking an enemy. It's clear it was Texas prior to our departure. However, it may turn out that CU being a media attention whore all off season gives them a new enemy to focus on this season. I am confident though, that officials will greatly favor or punish CU. I just hope they pick them as the enemy because the The Prime show would be a 3 ring circus of entertainment.
  3. I'm confident his "shopped his kids" during HS for a place that would take him in Jackson State. I'm confident the same thing with CU. Package deal for sure. Which has me curious if he's doing the same things with the NFL.
  4. Yeah, it reminds me of a couple of specific people in the news the past couple of years, which I'm confident are popular in Boulder.
  5. He coached Jackson State 2000-2002 and has 1 year at CU. I think he'll take the free paycheck for one more year after his sons are gone. Going back to TV after a few down years is a great call. I would say CU is currently "Trending" but their record doesn't really indicate relevant.
  6. Not sure you read it but it actually wasn't a "bad call". The correction was accurate. The ISSUE and why they are taking away a medal is: CAS ruled Saturday that the on-floor appeal Monday by Cecile Landi to have 0.1 added to Chiles' score came outside the one-minute window allowed by the FIG. The ad hoc committee wrote that Landi's appeal came 1 minute, 4 seconds after the score was posted. That is absolute shit. I'm all about getting it right as i noted above, but this feels like solution looking for a problem. This is the take of the competitor: "I only want for everybody to be fair. We don't want to start picking on other athletes of any nationality," Barbosu told reporters. "We as athletes don't deserve something like that. We only want to perform as best as we can and to be rewarded based on our performance. The problems lie with the judges, with their calculations and decisions."
  7. He'll go where he finds the most snake oil demand.
  8. I said it very early in this thread, but I'll be shocked if he's still coaching in 3 years. He won't give a shit next year at all, and if he doesn't just leave after year 3, he'll be run off creating drama worthy of a show called "Real Housewife Issues of CU Football".
  9. I absolutely agree. I think he's a very physically gifted, lower level field vision/decision making mid-tier college QB with "Off Field Wash-Out Issues" tattooed on his forehead. So of course the Cowboys will pick him up early, probably passing on Quinn Ewers to do so.
  10. That or a game of 3x3 but US gets to use Curry, LeBron and KD. That's a 3x3 that would be fun to watch.
  11. You're amazing Curry, but back off my woman!!!!
  12. The end was an absolute "FAFO"... what a great exclamation point for this team.
  13. That's gonna be a highlight for 4 years...
  14. Agree with 1-4 completely. 5 drove me away from watching the Olympics completely. I stopped giving a shit and just checked medal count online then looked for highlights. That was far and away the worst era. Gymnastics, highlights of Gymnastics competitors, back story of Gymnastics lives, the dogs and cats of Gymnastic competitors, the friend of Gymnastic competitors dogs, the food of the friends of Gymnastic competitors dogs, cats and their friends, family of the dogs of Gymnastics competitors, and then, some more Gymnastics.
  15. Wouldn't be opposed to that at all.
  16. That was also amazing battle. Hate to lose but what a great competition.
  17. That was a helluva race, in the 4x400 wow! Badass!
  18. There are several that have gotten my attention. Particularly:
  19. It really looked like she was in a "got this" moment about 1 yard before the tape. It was pretty shocked.
  20. It was a very nice final stretch for her and Bell. It actually looked like Hall nearly fucked up though easing up a tiny bit right at the end nearly giving it to Bell, IMO.
  21. No doubt Anna Hall is madly attractive, but have you heard her speak? I'm just sayin'. Don't take that for me saying pointy knees, cause I'd get over it... but over time it would wear on me.
