  1. I'm not sure which one of us you're insulting more, but I definitely laughed.
  2. Dude. Read your own posts. You're completely unhinged.
  3. You don't have any idea what a "fit" is you fool. You're the idiot who said Ewers shouldn't be drafted, not me. You pollute these boards with your breakdowns and hysteria and you have the fucking gall to point the finger at others? Kiss my ass.
  4. I didn't tag him. I made an off-handed reference to his dumb statement that (in so many words) Ewers should not get drafted. I treat the guy with kid gloves most of the time. I don't do it all of the time. I really don't care.
  5. Cry me a river. I didn't reboot the thread.
  6. My 4 kids all graduated from McCallum. In that sense, I feel like I dodged a bullet. Unfortunately, I have a grandson. He's at Doss. I doubt that will end up a much better track.
  7. I thought the same thing. I wonder if he's just uncomfortable in front of groups? It bodes well for how he probably comported himself with a few NFL execs at one time during the combine, pro day, etc.
  8. A little thought experiment for the annual subset of fans who swear that there aren't 32 "first round" guys in the draft, so-and-so shouldn't get drafted, etc. Take the QB position. How many QBs are on rosters any given year? At least 64. Probably closer to 96. Call it 80. What is the length of the average NFL QB's career? 4.4 years. That's right, 4.4 years. It doesn't take a math whiz to figure out that there are probably well over a dozen QBs about to play the last year of their career, EVERY YEAR. If we use my 80/4.4 numbers, it's 18 guys about to retire or suffer career ending injury. EVERY YEAR. Now, some of those guys were never gonna start, and some weren't drafted, and some outplayed their draft position, but the fact remains that on average there are a bunch of new QBs that will have to be absorbed by the league on an annual basis just to offset attrition. For instance, in 2024 there were 11 QBs drafted. For crying out loud, one of them was Spencer Rattler! Anyone who thinks Quinn Ewers isn't draft material is an idiot. Extend the thought experiment to all the other positions at your leisure.
  9. That is definitely a club I hope would not want me as a member. Yikes.
  10. Holy shit you are the biggest pussy on this board. Your projection is world class. You are so wholly incapable of seeing that you exhibit 10X of what you ascribe to others.
  11. I didn't say anything of the sort. I did imply that Jon Gruden and Kurt Warner know 1000X more about QB'ing than you do. I also remember you saying Quinn shouldn't be drafted, and I asked if you would come back and eat crow when he is, and (predictably) you never responded. Did I say that? Be honest for once in your life.
  12. What do Gruden and Kurt Warner know? Derka says Quinn sucks and we've all been nothing but fanbois getting him banned for speaking out against Quinn. Texas fans, what a fucking beating.
  13. I iterated through a dozen pair of speakers, from small monitors to floor standers before I fully grasped how visceral and important that bottom octave is. You just don't have it w/o getting serious response down to at least 35 Hz. I can't tell you how many stupid reviews I've read of small 2-ways where "it's not window-rattling but the bass quality is still there" . . . and it most definitely is not. And I'm no bass-head.
  14. Especially considering which poster is . . . gone.

  16. Francis appointed 2/3 of these guys. I seriously doubt they're prone to swing into far right puppy killer land.
  17. Eyewitnesses at the Pope/Vance meeting say Vance actually asked "Have you said 'thank you' once, this entire meeting?"
  18. Chapel Hill.
  19. Man, that's rsfc usenet era content.
  20. Which board hosted the original thread about the Christmas light tour through the poster's own neighborhood?
  21. Yeah, for that age those girls are fantastic. My experience is that the girls get there faster than the boys in terms of teamwork, but it seems to peak in late middle school, at which point the boys' athleticism creates a pretty insurmountable edge. I do remember my son's indoor team getting schooled by a girl's team that they took lightly. It was a clinic.
