  1. https://nonadventures.com/2025/09/17/negative-reinforcement/ I'm a simple man. I see a new Wonderella, I tell the world, "Hey! There's a new Wonderella." Doing my part to make the world a better place.
  2. let me tell you about this guy named Garrett Gilbert
  3. You must be watching very different press conferences than I have been. I don't think anyone is unaware of how bad our offense has been in terms of on-field production. The only long-term things I'm concerned with are red zone offense and stupid penalties; those have been more it less constant throughout Sark's tenure, and they ARE concerns. But most of the REST of the concerns the fans have seem to be more based on stupidly unrealistic expectations for our QB, WRs and OL. What CTJ said about Parker Livingstone - that if he's our best WR, we're in trouble - is haunting us; we've given him crap because Jaggy HAS been our best WR, but the other side of that coin is... where's the other guys? Arch has the yips. Psychologists understand it better now. A few billable hours with a therapist, and there's nothing to worry about.
  4. underrated comment
  5. and unlike SO many "hacker" movies, technically accurate
  6. the thing about Redford is that we all have our favorites and our top tens, but if there's a Redford movie on TV we're probably watching that one, too @henrygandorf's comment on Legal Eagles for example this would hit harder if Mom were still alive to mourn him my parents collected Navajo weavings... Mom found out that Redford had touched a rug in a gallery, and she bought it on the spot
  7. rofl the FALL will probably kill ya...
  8. So that guitar riff I posted above now has a song with it. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OdNzHV9w3FrgC94KndaQgqmrHZgjx_dC/view?usp=sharing Anyway, I can't fuckin' sing. Especially in the key change which is definitely out of my range but... eh. (Mind you, this is me picking and choosing the best bits and pieces of four different takes. But I don't get a lot of time where I can just yell to music in my house.)
  9. Agreed. To the rest of Surly:
  10. lololololol BZZZZZT! Wrong! VY was part of the 2002 class, and redshirted in 2002. Played a few downs in 2003. 2004 was his Redshirt Sophomore season. Come on, man. At least get your facts right before you start barfing out internet stupidity.
  11. Look at the stats. Those points were almost entirely on the back of Cedric Benson. And last week, Arch completed 66% of his passes... and also scored 5 touchdowns all by himself. VY only had one, passing or rushing. VY sucked ass that game. And then the Mizzou game was even worse. Everyone and their dog was convinced that VY was never going to amount to shit, aggys were laughing at us, OU blanked us... and then ... well...
  12. Are you saying that 2004 North Texas is not a cream puff?
  13. Not between where God of Football was at the same point in his career and where Arch is now. Go look up VY's passing stats his RS Sophomore year (2004), especially in the first few games. People were calling for VY to be moved to WR, convinced he'd never be able to play the position.
  14. I pointed out last week how eerily similar Arch's second game as a RS So was, and VY's second game as a RS So. Folks need to chill the fuck out. Our OL, WR corps, and QB are all basically new this year. They need game time snaps to figure things out. There was this assumption that because he was a Manning, he'd sprout fully formed from Cooper's skull in full QB gear, ready to be the God of Football. That wasn't the case for any QB, Manning or otherwise. He still has to learn the game like everyone else does.
  15. Man, I'm glad most of you dipshits' overreactions aren't going to have any effect on anything.
  16. Doesn't really matter if we win by 1 or 81...
  17. You've probably seen the comic already, but it's the title the submitter added that I wanted to share.
