Re: Baltimore bridge collapse video

Nothing on earth you can really do in a situation like this. Nightmare scenario for the ship and the harbor authorities. 100k+ ton ship the size of a football field hitting a support. I think few of us can imagine the force of that in practical terms. Hats off to all the first responders doing searc...

Re: JMU vs Tulane (Football)

We play 4 OOC games/year. 2024 will be the first time I can remember playing 2 against a Pee program. We’ve played other SBC teams, why not the best? The risk is losing, and if we don’t want to play them for fear of losing, we’re saying we’re chickenshit. I don’t buy that. We have played other SBC ...

Re: Michael Pratt NFL evaluation

I watched the second practice for a bit, Jackson was pretty good. It just shows how subjective this stuff can be based on the eye of the beholder/analyst. That’s how you get guys like Isaiah Pacheco being drafted in the 7th round.

Re: Virginia Tech Beats Tulane 41-20- Military Bowl

Watching SMU today was painful. They are not that good offensively, I’m sorry. Willie was not remotely prepared to play that game and it’s so obvious in hindsight.

Ok, now I’m ready to move on. I think.

You don’t actually need a better camera angle to see that the Hokie QB fumbled before breaking the plane, you just need to open your eyes and look at the replay angle you already have.

Re: Willie Fritz official to Houston

Sumrall is incredibly impressive in how he has handled this situation. He’s showed a lot of strength, transparency, character. He has a very strong sense of who he is and what energy he wants to put out into the world. And he highly values people and relationships.
