    People keep saying this but he’s been receiving private training since he was like 8 years old. Maybe that trainer sucked, but he’s been a big time prospect since middle school, so I’m skeptical his issues are due to not receiving any high level training. 

    TBF he said no "decent" coaching, so it's possible that trainer blew ass when it came to how this guy needs to throw the ball. I don't care if you're 6'7, you're gunna have a higher percentage of balls getting batted down when you're throwing it from that slot.

    They were talking about this on SiriusXM yesterday as well...  and pretty much said it was smart.

    Sure it's smart, from his perspective, if his goal right now is to get to college without suffering a major injury. 


  3. I'm not sure why it's a "kids today" rant versus viewing this kind of action as bullshit showing a lack of character. There is no honor in skipping a senior season of HS football and bailing out on your teammates because you think you've got some higher mission with the sport. There is no love or passion for the game from someone taking his kind of course. It comes across as empty and selfish and easy to root against. If that's not very woke of me, I don't give even the tiniest fuck. 


    Fuckin’ A right. I can get with why athletes do what they do these days, and understand that in the big scheme of things this is their career that we’re talking about and that they don’t really owe me or anyone else anything blah blah blah... but it doesn’t mean I have to like it and think “oh great wow so happy rn.”/“it’s his life!,” especially when it happens to the team I cheer for (like with some guys here last year). I’m not here because *insert player*

    Oh nooo does that make me a... fan?

    Agreed, my only other note. Fat side up always 

    Can't do that on my WSM or that shit'll dry TF up.

    Related, though, from when I have done offset, I only did fat side up until it was wrapped and resting, then I had it fat side down so that what bark I did have wasn't sitting in a pool of juices.

    My brisket yesterday turned out pretty good but FFS the flat took forfuckinever to probe tender. God shoulda make briskets one giant solid assed point (and normally all I smoke are larger points, but mother's day and all).

    IT always seems to hit peak levels of sunshine in the spring before OVs and Junior Days start up in the summer.

    Eric cranks his fandom up in the offseason and their reporting is all the worse for it. The sunshine brigade isn't very skilled at tempering expectations. 

    He literally said "calculator" for Kelvin Banks with 7-9 months to go in the cycle. Chill out, guys.
