  1. Considering last season, he might be right. We're fixin' to find out.
  2. Which way?
  3. All good on the Last Frontier. 5 by 5. Enjoying Saban's insights, as usual.
  4. All things considered, Sark's biggest problem seems to be that he still chases Coordinator Glory. Until he realizes that he's pursuing a subjective title (Best OC) and changes to the objectivity of full-spectrum Scoreboard Dominance, we're almost certainly going to continue to see a couple of WTF performances every season.
  5. Hyperbolic Morons - another pick'it amongst band name, song title, and motto.
  6. Not much of one. The bottom line is ... unclear. I think Sark may have figured out that while he isn't necessarily on a hot seat, he is in a position where he needs a W. Close but no cigar won't be close enough.
  7. Court Jester was pretty funny, and a couple of good-looking women in Glynis Johns and Angela Lansbury (yeah, she was younger once). Personally, I laughed at Danny Kaye in several movies, and The Inspector General was a lot funnier. The "pocketa-pocketa-pocketa" in Secret Life of Waler Mitty was straight outta the book - I still hear it anytime Danny shows up on a screen...
  8. Judging from the expressions, I'd think there might be a Wide Receiver in the mix.
  9. "Angry people win football games." -- some old guy.
  10. Hmmmm... probably true, but I think the situation calls more for John Moses Browning.
  11. I've not encountered it anywhere, so I figured it doesn't happen. But, damn, it seems like a pretty obvious method of getting into a situation where a school can ditch a coach and put him into a position of being amenable to a negotiated exit.
  12. I've asked, but never seen an answer, whether coaching contracts do or might contain language allowing the school to assign the head coach to another position (keeping the salary, of course) and/or to assign another person to a position of authority over the head coach? I mean, you know, like like like, you know, not "you're fired" but like "you aren't running the team any more, asswipe, go stand over there and keep your mouth shut." Somewhere in the Contracts there are clauses relating to insubordinate behavior...no? Probably within a page or two of the Morality clauses?'
  13. Was thinking about working that in...
  14. Kelly couldn't catch a bottle full of lightning if it hit him in the hands.
  15. Why would you not say that?
