    Yeah that was the darndest string of turnovers I have seen since I don’t know when. It just snowballed all at once on them it felt like. I agree on that back. When he was getting it they were moving the chains and eating up big chunks of yardage. That’s going to be a big loss if he misses next week. That duo is so productive together. I guess that’d move Singletary up in the pecking game order. Fallon might even get a few more snaps as a WR. He has had one of the best seasons of any sophomore in the state and should go over 2000 on the ground this week. He’s already there with his all-purpose yardage. I hope they stay with Lampasas next realignment because I want to see two more years of Fallon against Badgers RB Jett Walker who had as productive a season as Fallon.

    Just incredible that Gilmer did not kneel down. Then even more nutty was Gilmer taking a timeout when Carthage was going to get a delay of game on the conversion attempt.
  3. UpperWestside
    That call to go for it by Gilmer on 4th and 6 was incredible. What a catch.

    Davenport and Chapel Hill in the semi-finals as Chapel Hill survives 21-19 against Kilgore.

    Davenport ends it with a turnover on downs and the back-up QB gets a TD to end it at 55-20. Now the fun begins next week when Davenport will face a team as athletic as them as none of the four teams they have played have been close to them in that aspect yet.

    48-20 Davenport. This was 20-20 after Calhoun got a stop with 6 minutes left in the 3rd. 9 minutes of game time later they are down four touchdowns.
  7. UpperWestside
    Four consecutive turnovers for Calhoun. The last one on an interception. You can see why they don’t throw it much, but no choice there.
  8. UpperWestside
    That should be game right there. Complete meltdown by Calhoun with that fumble in the end zone.
  9. UpperWestside
    Turnover Calhoun on the pitch. Another short field for Davenport for another TD. This could get out of hand pretty quickly if they don’t score on this drive.
  10. UpperWestside
    Davenport with an easy score off of a muffed punt. Two weeks in a row that the opponent’s special teams are handing the Wolves free points.
  11. UpperWestside
    If Davenport would hang onto the football this game would already be out of reach. They get a big play out of the passing game, have Calhoun’s defense on their heels and they run the ball the next play inside the 10 and fumble. Just throw the ball in that situation. Instead Calhoun gets that incredible touchdown run three plays later. Kinda thought Davenport would be susceptible to giving up big plays because of their lack of size on defense, but credit to a undermanned Calhoun team for hanging around so far.

    There’s several really good movies out right now. The pendulum is swinging back in the direction away from comic book movies because of over saturation of the genre. This movie will probably not be liked by historians and amateur historians. Scott made it really clear this wasn’t going to be a movie for those people. It makes the complaining a bit of a head-scratcher from that group of folks.

    I am guessing the QB for Collinsville still went over 5000 yards for the season. He needed around 150 yards through the air to pull that off.

    30 years ago two of those three were in 3A and were very, very bad at football. I remember that Lampasas beat Lake Travis 63-16 that year and played a group on offense for the 4th quarter called Roy’s Boys. This involved our starting DT playing tailback and we still scored a TD. Drip was not much better and lost 44-15 that year to the Badgers. Another true story that happened because of that game with Lake Travis is this. Troy Rogers (Current Lampasas head coach and former North Shore OC), the 3A Offensive MVP was 2nd team all-district because Lake Travis and one other school wouldn’t vote for him in the all-district meeting because of how bad they were beaten.

    I’m big on riding the subway, LIRR or Metro-North. Amtrak as well, but I also enjoy airplane trips. I love trains though and they’re all relaxing to me. Never have wanted to ride in a helicopter.

    Looks like he’s hanging out on his off days with Harden. So far in his young career he has not shown much in the way of leadership qualities. Tonight he announced that after a winless month they “Got their swag back” in a loss to the Knicks. I have a feeling this guy is going to be one of those players who scores a lot on a whole bunch of bad teams because somebody has to be the leading scorer even on the teams on the bottom rungs of the ladder.

    Anyone out there who thinks kids either have not seen stuff like this with their friends or talk about it is just in denial. There are times I have been on the subway here and you hear kids that look like they are in elementary school talk about “adult topics”. Kids are not shocked by any of these scenes. Not in the least.

    I got 99 problems, but a hundred year old Kissinger ain’t one.

    I thought that Franz Wagner could perhaps use the FIBA World Cup as a coming out party for how good he is. Then the Germans go and win the whole darn thing. Not shocked at all to see him get the Magic off to such a nice start. If he could hit the boards a little more often that’d be nice, but to be as good as he is at 22 is pretty impressive.

    I listened to that clip and again I will say that it really gets under my skin that this is what people will think most people on the spectrum are like. He is absolutely, positively the worst representative that any of us on the spectrum could have. He is a drug addled mess. That was the ramblings from someone whose mind has gone squarely off the deep end and is never coming back and yet he has enormous sway in the world.

    A horrific person who brought so much harm to so many folks around the world is gone. Goodbye and good riddance. The world needs far less people like him and so many more like Mrs. Carter.
  22. UpperWestside
    In a week where Rosalynn Carter is laid to rest I think the best thing to do is just forget that Kissinger ever existed. He is in the dustbin of history. Mrs. Carter had more kindness in her pinky finger than that man had in his entire body. It’s just better to remember that kind people who made a positive difference while putting the horrors guys like this in a file cabinet, taking the file cabinet and throwing it to the bottom of the Mariana Trench to forever be forgotten.

    I read Toll’s trilogy this summer. It was fantastic. He’s local to me here in New York so I hope to catch him doing a Q&A. He and James Hornfischer (RIP) both have excellent books. Wish Hornfischer had not succumbed to cancer two years ago or he would’ve had many more books on the Pacific War. I am probably more partial to writers born after the war or that wrote well after the war ended like John Toland. I will still likely read his life’s work at some point.

    He had one this year that was unfortunate, The Retirement Plan, but they paid him so he did it. This was the opposite of that. That was funny. Any actor that can make fun of themselves like he did in that movie is cool by me.

    The Galloping Ghost and company want their offense back where it belongs at in the Roaring 20’s. I feel that in an alternate timeline Ferentz and his failson are coaching football at Ohio State and setting every offense record in the book. Instead, in this one they are trying to make people appreciate some good old-fashioned scrums where fancy things like double reverses or throwing a screen pass is frowned upon.
