  1. Kareem weighs in: https://kareem.substack.com/p/winning-time-isnt-just-deliberately?s=r
  2. I thought Hayden Panettiere, the kid from Remember the Titans, would become a bigger deal after her Heroes role. I also thought Eliza Dushku would do more.
  3. So what's the deal with this kid? Highly rated recruit sure, but only gets in two games prior to the championship game against Georgia where he has 50% of his total catches for the year (2/52 in that game and 2/20 the rest of the season) and then Saban rakes the backup WRs over the coals after the game. Then, he's suspended from Alabama for breaking team rules and hits the portal. Not a great start to his college career. I guess you're betting on potential here, but there do seem to be some watch-out elements in play.
  4. I said in the O-Line thread that I wouldn't be surprised if Connor is our starting LT for the first part of the season. If all your options are flawed, put the guy there who will make the least mental mistakes. You can scheme a bit around physical limitations, but it's tough to make things work when your confused and indecisive LT is grabbing his nuts and watching guys take dead aim at the QB.
  5. I would not be surprised to see Connor start the season at LT. If all of your possibilities have flaws, a good option is to go with the one who will make the fewest mental errors.
  6. It's not just your opinion. Seems obvious that based on the way they recruited that the coaches see it that way too, as does just about everyone who knows a teensy amount about football. Shock and awe and blitzkriegs are cool I guess but if you want to really win a war, you've got to have infantry that do the dirty work.
  7. I guess he writes that because Haskins was not a successful pro player in the NFL and the loss of his life doesn't mean that much because it doesn't affect a great chronicler of the game like Schefter. It's like Haskins got waived and retired--don't have to think about that loser again! I'm sure he's not the only one. (I love football, but it sure produces some weird people with screwed up values.)
  8. I don't see how people watch dudes talking when it's just dudes talking and no highlights or video analysis.
  9. Disappointed in #3. His lack of sidearm on that throw is a bad sign. Can't play winning football going over the top like that.
  10. This is Surly. That's not how any of this works. Mt Surly:
  11. Thanks Mom. Great advice as always. Hey, don't you need to get to the dining room for the charades game with staff and other residents?
  12. That was such a great play. Ultimately, it was a game deciding play.
  13. Fuck soccer and fuck si. I'll never forgive either for this cover, which should have been Dream. (And you know it would have been the Knicks on the cover if they had won.)
  14. We’ll fuck. That makes no sense to me. I’ll find a little consolation in that it is not the Yankees.
  15. I bet there are some who make this decision. A few million in the bank and lots of business connections through your university? Sure, why not go enjoy life instead of being chained to a routine for years more while people talk shit about you on message boards and you beat your brain to a pulp.
