  1. Why is Gerry catching strays here? Turntine is a 5 star. If he's not an OT in college then a lot of people are wrong. Including Kyle Flood.
  2. It seems like you are agreeing with everything he posted, but yet also mocking him for it. I’m not sure what to make of it.
  3. I was waiting for a “No, I am your father” from Scott Glenn.
  4. Everything about this makes me want to kill myself. How have we ended up in this place. It can't be real.
  5. So I know this has been done to death. Believe me, I know. I do. BUT.... just try to imagine for a moment, Obama in the spring of 2013, refusing to rule out running for a third term. And saying things like "There are methods" for accomplishing that. It would have been an absolute nuclear bomb dropped on Washington. It's actually kind of impossible to even imagine the kind of impact that would have had. Now, with this shithead? A collective response of "Huh. Well, maybe so. Maybe not. Anyway..."
  6. Dems: "Oh, ok. Well then our ticket is Michelle Obama/Barack Obama."
  7. What you're saying is strange enough, but it's really strange to tell me what I would or wouldn't like.
  8. My all-time favorite was when Ketchum gave a detailed report on a dude who had transferred out the year before. "Looking really good, clearly has lost weight, may challenge for a starting job..." etc. "Um hey Ketch? He's playing at SMU now."
  9. Not to be too negative, but the US existing in its current form in 2028 seems a little optimistic to me right now. What that would mean for Trump running again, or elections in general, I have no idea.
  10. The right used to scream constantly about Obama wanting to serve a third term (and beyond). I bet this is really going to infuriate them.
  11. If democrats can't run successfully on what is happening right now, then I'm not sure they ever will again. "We want to be the party of the working class again". Well, we're currently being stripped for parts by republicans, with the broken shells of what's left sold off to billionaires. I might lead with that.
  12. It's worse on IT. Any mention of the dude's name produces 2-3 pages of "white" jokes. Really hilarious stuff like pictures of white bread. Do you get it. It's because Parker Livingstone is white and not black.
  13. That's about 31 yards per game.
  14. IT After receiving immediate input on Parker Livingstone’s third strong practice in a row, IT asked another source to name the first player who comes to mind after Saturday’s practice. Unsurprisingly, the response was yet again Parker Livingstone. While we don’t want to create a cult hero before he produces on the field, we wouldn’t be doing our job if we didn’t report what was happening in practice. You’re in control of your expectations; we’re in control of reporting what’s happening. It would be half-assed reporting if we said, “Arch Manning yet again threw a couple of play-action bombs to… someone.” The truth is, Livingstone is giving corners trouble. They’re going to need to turn and run earlier in the route, which gives him more leverage to snap it off. He had at least two touchdowns on the day. ***Play-action passing seems like something the staff is intent on leaning on with this personnel group. We heard that in the preceding months, but it’s coming to life on the field. It’s been a hallmark of the first three practices. ***Manning yet again took care of the ball. He was making the right reads and checked down when he needed to. He’s showing good command of the offense. ***KJ Lacey made a few plays, too. He threw a deep ‘over’ route that gained attention. He’s also been decisive when it comes to throwing it or taking off and running. ***Who won, the offense or defense? “The defense almost always wins, but today [Saturday] was much more even. The offense is using more misdirection that’s slowed the defense just a bit.” ***Jerrick Gibson had a good practice. It was thud tempo, but that still makes for a physical practice, and Gibson ran it well. I think the source mentioned Tre Wisner too, but I was struggling to keep up with the notes. The source definitely said Rickey Stewart and James Simon were running it hard. “They’re rising to the occasion.” ***More wide receiver notes, especially one for Ian Boyd. Daylan McCutcheon and Michael Terry were in the slot. Yes, Michael Terry. Jaime Ffrench has worked there as well. The young wide receivers practice with physical intent, which is encouraging with a number of older DBs trying to rough them up. ***IT asked about Ryan Wingo. “Wingo is Wingo. You don’t have to worry about him. He’s bigger and faster, and they’re involving him more on gadget stuff and end-arounds.” ***Jeff Banks continues to give Jordan Washington extra attention. Washington is an important piece. ***Will linebacker continues to trend towards a 1A/1B scenario with Liona Lefau and Trey Moore. “Liona is playing really well. Moore is like a LB version of Jahdae. They can ask him to play anywhere or do anything.” The more they evolve Moore, the more they can evolve the scheme. ***Xavier Filsaime is looking a bit more physical than last year. That probably has to do with increased confidence and a year in S&C. All the safeties will hit you. ***We like themes from practice because it tells a more reliable story. Santana Wilson had yet another pick at corner. I think that makes three in three practices. Wardell Mack and Ryan Niblett both played nickel. ***DJ Campbell is moving his best ever and becoming more of a leader. And, “Cole Hutson is the most underrated guy in that room.” ***The D-tackles “look pretty good. We’ll know more when the pads come on.” Overall, this team is a bit different than last year. In years past, they sort of eased into spring ball. They seemed to really hit the ground running this year. That could be the infusion of youth and so much playing time up for grabs. Or it could be that guys are simply playing more freely, per one source. The source finished with, “Monday will be the first full pads practice, and full pads separate the men from the boys.” As the old joke goes, in that way, it’s like filters on Paul Wadlington’s dating app.
  15. I don't think they're doing him any favors. Eventually people will be let down when he's not actually a combination of Lance Alworth and Jordan Shipley.
  16. Is he.... burnt orange? I don't want these feelings.
  17. The only problem is that there isn't a ton more of it.
  18. I was bumping channels last night between basketball games, and hit HBO. I stopped long enough to hear Bill say "the Trump derangement syndrome on the left", laughed out loud, and changed the channel.
  19. Hey, if we can save a few pennies by destroying America from the inside, we'd be crazy not to do that.
  20. I have watched entirely too much Star Trek when I know what episode this is. (The last one. All Good Things.)
  21. (Third-team right guard sprains his pinky finger) "We're cursed!! Every single year this happens!"
  22. Remember those huge gains Trump made with black voters in 2024? Great job morons.
  23. 'Ol Carl pretty much nailed that one. "Unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true." Damn.
  24. Well, yeah. Traitors. Birds of a feather.
