  1. Yeah, I'm afraid of this, too. The only time we've seen Arch without the training wheels he probably got concussed. I've got high hopes, but we should temper our expectations.
  2. If he flames out in the NFL, and I hope he doesn't, I'd welcome him into Sark's coaching tree. Someone who's played the position and been in the same exact spotlight would absolutely be an asset.
  3. Toward the end of that video the bald attorney makes a comparison of Stand Your Ground to the way cops are allowed to deal with threats. He says "the same defense rules that apply to police officers apply to citizens." Do I believe in practice that a black kid will be viewed through the same lens in Frisco of all places as a cop would be viewed under identical circumstances? I wouldn't hold my breath. If the question is not a practical one but the technical question of "does Stand Your Ground apply" here, I would need to mentally replace Karmelo Anthony with a police officer who got shoved by Austin Metcalf. If cops can legally pull the trigger at a Pomeranian barking ten yards away because the cop "reasonably feared" for his safety, then a police officer who got shoved could probably get away with saying he "reasonably feared" he was in danger when he decided to eliminate the threat. By the logic of "the same defense rules that apply to police officers apply to citizens" it's probably a good idea from now on to teach your kids not to start shoving matches in Texas.
  4. He will get his chance. The saddest part for him is he missed out on some financial stability when he passed on guaranteed NIL for a chance at a high NFL salary. He was advised poorly, and likely because the people he trusted most chased away the ones who would have provided the best advice to him. I can't say I would have liked to see him finish his college career at another school, but I don't love seeing him take a huge pay cut after his spending habits had probably grown accustomed to having much higher income.
  5. What @immamac said about 4th and 13 is perfect. Yes, he made the play. Give him credit for that, but let's not forget he was protected by an NFL front line, throwing to a First Round WR whose talent was welcomed to the league by a sea of elated fans, and that a Day 1/Day 2 QB probably should not have been in that situation to begin with. Let's be even more brutally honest here: if he overthrew that pass or if Golden had been covered better, nobody would've been shocked to see him drop to RD7. All of that being said, I still think he has RD1 upside, which is how he was a 1.000 five star recruit. He probably would've been the starting QB at Ohio State if he had not transferred. His stats would have been better if he hadn't been injured by Alabama in 2022 or UTSA in 2024. There's so much "woulda, coulda" on his resume and then the injury history that I understand teams being afraid of the risk. The key difference for me is that I don't need to shit on him or root for him to fail. I don't need to express ingratitude either. That's loser shit. He deserves a ton of credit and a ton of respect from the fans as long as he truly hasn't embarrassed himself like Justin Tucker.
  6. He still sounds pretty deflated. Brutal reality check, which I don't blame him for so much as I blame the bubble he was obviously raised in.
  7. NFL teams have overlooked worse misconduct. Didn't want to burn a pick on a guy who might do time, but if he beats the charges I think he'll find his way onto a roster.
  8. Shilo Sanders also to Tampa
  9. https://nflpaweb.blob.core.windows.net/website/PDFs/List-of-Prohibited-Substances_PES_2022.pdf So this was updated in 2022, I'm no pharmacist but it appears the Florida lineman #21 (I still remember him from when we beat them) could use Ozempic without violating NFL policy.
  10. The enormous Florida lineman got signed already as a UFA (Tampa Bucs)
  11. We need to kick the feckless "kumbaya" let's-reach-across-the-aisle Dems out. No more losers. No more half measures.
  12. lol aggy can't grab the foul ball
  13. Do many college baseball fans need feminine hygiene products or is it just the Aggy demographic
  14. Probably the right move
  15. Will this hag shut the fuck up Damn they picked A MINORRRRRR
  16. LOL they actually put "Mr Irrelevant" on the backdrop?
