My gut tells me he is one more pick away from riding the pine, especially if it happens before anything good.

Yeah Red's ball control at the snap is terrible. IIRC he has bobbled a number of wildcat snaps and of course the disastrous 4th down play. I was keying in on JT abd the play was there as the outside contain crashed down. The quick pitch we were more successful than not , though the 3rd down to Baxter got blown up. I think in that instance , Blue is a better option, as he has more wiggle and overall speed. We have been playing with fire and TCU on the road is not one to be fucking around.

We're not asking MM to be VY reincarnate, but he needs to run the damn ball. This was the play he threw the pick into coverage and Cook slipped. 2nd and 3, he communicates with the right tackle picks up a blocker, could have been something there. Nitpicking here, but he needs to have better situational awareness there and protect the damn ball

You get to count 1 per season. So in the event an FBS team plays 2 of those cupcakes, maybe say if there was a cancellation and someone had to schedule a filler, you could only count 1 toward eligibility. I seem to recall it happening before, but its rare.

Flying home now. Outstanding weekend in Austin. Had about a dozen fraternity brothers in town. Gameday was great, my nuts were splitting the 45. Section 29 row 39, great seats. I come in for one game a year, no Mrs Jdhorn with me this year (sorry no pics assholes) , last year TCU and OSU the year before that, so i was due for a W. Started to get hot by hafltime as the haze/fog was burning off. Noice was manageable, i miss "quarter" and the slippery rock score. Bathroom lines moved well, food line was not bad, watched the Taffee Int on CCTV waiting for food. Zero line getting in stadium right at 11am on East Side, i had to do a double take, no line at all. Figured the FOx 11 Am game would kick at 11:20 , nope went off at about 5-10 after top of the hour. We had a great time besides the heart attack! Joined up with another group after the game in the White tent tailgate area by LBJ, perfect way to end an awesome afternoon. Got back to JW in time to lay down and see OU get beat before heading to Eberle for dinner. Hookem!

They called one at very opportune time for us and would have set up 3rd and 20, but we roughed the qb dead ball and auto first dowm, despite the holding call being enforced. IIRC that was the game tying td drive

I know Neon, I know. It's brutal, i wish I could. I don't have a deep enough religious background to explain or articulate that one. I have three kids of my own and couldn't imagine squaring that diagnosis with a good and just God. The pat answer is God has a reason for everything he does.

You should expand your thinking. I think you are parroting old stereotypes. Those towns you mentioned are not exactly bastions of liberal progressive thinking. They share a lot more in common with B'ham than you realize. Id give Bham shot if i were you though. Its not like you have tons of time in between games. Judging from your comments, you strike me as someone who has a bit of wanderlust. Huntsville,AL is a great city, very friendly and progressive and has an incredible Space Industry and museum, its appx. an hour or so from there. That part of AL has a lot more topographical change than the flat beaches of lower AL. If you like hiking, there is plenty to do with your kids in the downtime. Tuscaloosa is down the road less than an hour. 2/3 of the last several incoming Freshmen classes at Bama are from out of state, so something is drawing them to AL. I'm certainly no AL apologist, but I likely have a good many years on you and have worked in the Southeast for 25 years. I would encourage you to expand your thinking a bit on AL and the south in general. There is racism everywhere and AL has a storied reputation no doubt, but you may give it a chance, we'll all be getting a heavy dose of the south as new SEC members and I think we all may be surprised what we find.

It's been the will of mankind to commit sin. The existence of sin is real. People have free will to make decisions. It is written, murder is sin and God has given us all the potential to live with or without sin. Evil exists in this world and it will forever. For those captives who Pray, we Pray for freedom from the captor. The answer to those Prayers is not always what we want, when we want it.

Well said. I'm kind of right there with you on a lot of that.

Thanks, I often go to a Sunday School class with my wife and I fold like a cheap suitcase in that room. Put me in any situation , socially, work or whatever and i have no problems talking, articulating points etc......put me in that room and ask me a question about my interpretation of a passage or ask me to read several verses, its like i have marbles in my mouth. I think my spiritual walk is just on a really twisted path, but I am on it. What i started doing though about a year ago is Praying in bed at night and right before my flight takes off ( I travel weekly for work). I use that time to do and ask for many things, but mainly its just to make sure i have a dialogue with God, that help center me a bit .

I won't speak for all people, but for me Prayer has several meanings. I don't think you will like my answer, mainly b/c its hard to articulate a response to "why do people pray?" or "if everyone is praying, why is there so much bad in the world". Spiritually speaking, accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior means entering in to a relationship. Not like one with my spouse or drinking buddies or anyone in this community, but a relationship deeper than anything we could touch or describe. I'm not a religions scholar and though I can describe in words many things, I find when I write about my Faith or Prayer or the Bible, I'm often at a loss for words. Ive always been reluctant to speak about my Faith with others, as I am far from perfect. Prayer is a form of communication with God. He listens but the answers aren't always what we want, when or how we want them. We Pray because it's an outlet, its a form of dialogue; its a display of our appreciation for all the gifts and blessings we have a result of God sending his son to die on the cross for our sins. In the New Testament, we come to learn of a New Covenant with God. We thought we were getting a King with a sword, what we didn't have planned out is for a King (savior) who would wear a much different crown. Prayer can be asking for forgiveness, giving thanks, requesting guidance....its a noun and a verb at the same time. I cant speak for your neighbor, but I presume she's Praying for you to come to peace with your decision to move. She likely values you as a neighbor and doesn't necessarily want you to leave , but alas you will make your own mind up about that. Her Praying you don't leave is, imo, her asking God to help her come to terms with whatever decision you make. That probably a big nothing burger what i typed there, but on some level you may be wanting to be convinced of why prayer is a thing and I cant answer that for you. Only you can answer that. I cant sell you on the power of Prayer or why people do it....its not really a black and white topic easily answered, at least by this heathen. lol

Yeah your intel is outdated by a dozen years. Delta is by far and away superior to AA and UA and its not even close. If you havent flown Delta but 1 x in 5 years, then you are missing out and any negative experience is anecdotal. I fly Delta often times 4 times in a week, connecting through ATL to IAD, DCA and various other southeast regional cities. When I go west, i use AA. There is a non-stop flight to Tampa and or Houston on United from my home airport and I avoid them like the plague. No question about it Delta reigns supreme in customer service. and overall flight experience.

If I recall, Prime got robbed, but I dont think the team reported widespread theft. He got his property back though. edit: added article https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2932850-deion-sanders-says-his-belongings-were-stolen-from-jackson-state-locker-room

yeah for those going, Kickoff wont be until 11:20, they milk the transition from the set to the announcers back to the studio for forever.

There were 3 to Worthy that may have been drops. The deep ball was contested, good play by defender,slightly underthrown. On the slant, hard to tell but looked tipped and that may have contributed to incompletetion. If it wasnt tipped, the ball was thrown behind him, hard to put that on X. The 4th down play was catchable but hard to tell from TV angle. Overall XW had a great game, one of his best imo

Surprised to see him with no sling. He looked very skinny in street clothes. Hoping Catalon is back. We'll need some guys who can come up in run support and knock the shit out of their running QB's

I agree with that 100%. Especially with a first time starter at QB. I kept thinking take the points, we're one MM pick six and onside recovery away from being a game. At home , facing an inept offense, extend the lead, keep momentum and give then no hope while taking the risk out of things. The disdain for 3 points in CFB is maddening.

How tall is Neyor? I know he hasnt played much, but that seems like the only play we havent tried. The jump pass worked earlier this year, or maybe that was last year. We have no QB mobility, so that hurts down here at the goal line. At least Sam and 18 wheeler could bull doze teams. QE rolled out once and scored , so i guess there's that, but id like to see us give the fade at least a look. Also the dig that X scored on vs ISU is a good play down there, haven't seen that this year either.

Agree. I thought he looked about like I thought he would. A couple three WTF plays that could have hurt us tremendously, but didn't. We'll see if he can learn from those w/o becoming too careful. The Int was really bad, total panic move. The throw to JT was just plain lucky and other to X was just trying to do too much. Overall he had several great throws and seem to put the ball where the WR/RB could move in motion with ball flight. Id give him a solid B+. The fumble was a weird play where it was very slow developing and his blockers whiffed. Sark called a similar slow developing play vs Bama last year near the goal line that got QE hurt. Plus there were a drop or two at least on catchable throws and maybe a third, couldnt tell if the slant was tipped.

I’ll be there. Dinner Friday night at the Austin Proper Hotel , so quick turnaround for an early kick , we’ll make do, and day drink the rest of the day. Glorious

You did not swidt

Any injury updates on QE? Surely something has been leaked to the 9.95 ers or big cigars, practice pics , in a sling or not?

Just tell us what page we’re on, Satchel.

According to a guy interviewed on CNN, he claimed to have been trained by the perp. So not sure what to make of that , but the guy interviewed said he’s hella competent with firearms
