  1. Scottie was off with his approach irons most of the day, to the point where he almost slammed his club on 17th fairway, and shot 63.
  2. Incredible par save by Scottie on 16. Henley shoots 61 and made over 207 feet of putts today. LOL.
  3. Thanks for sharing. Took about 20 minutes for this guy to admit he can't condemn King Trump because they'll remove him from the negotiating table. Probably also scared he'll get deported.
  4. I agree it's not an easy hire, but I'm sure they could find someone if they prioritized it. With Arch Manning season(s) ahead and program looking elite, it's a golden opportunity to elevate the channel.
  5. Yeah, I don't know what to make of it.
  6. I'm back to watching a lot of Texas stuff on YouTube. - It's weird how unlikeable the InsideTexas guys are. They report on Texas with such a lack of enthusiasm, like they're not even enjoying their job. I like that they're willing to discuss Xs & Os, but it's a shame that Ian Boyd is leading it. - On Texas Football is still my go-to, but things feel a little stale. Jeff Howe seems like a good dude and is knowledgable, but his inclusion feels a little redundant with CJ Vogel. Really like Gerry. Babers should not be doing solo segments, he tends to drone and it's a hard listen sometimes. I was hoping they'd add a film study analyst/segment this year, that is such an opportunity for them with so many eyes on Arch and the program right now. - I don't watch Orangebloods stuff. Can't do it.
  7. Great start to this tournament. Course is gettable right now and a lot of players are stepping up.
  8. Yes, and I'm assuming he'll do a detailed film study of Arch every week this season.
  9. Then the requested media blackout has begun. They don't want the 75 yard TD catch on first play of game to feel too obvious.
  10. And the auditioning at East Lake begins...
  11. They are in the bargaining phase of the 5 stages of grief.
  12. Good post and I agree with your position. But Bernie is the OG so perfection is not required. If a newer face made that mistake it would be disqualifying to a lot of people.
  13. McShay had some substance abuse problems (drinking?) and had to walk away from TV for a while, right? From the few clips I've seen, dude still seems to not be mentally recovered.
  14. He also avoided describing Israel's actions as a "genocide" which has produced lots of criticism. Let's make things better before demanding perfection.
  15. The world is moving at a frantic pace and things are changing quickly. Democratic voters are angry with the Democratic Party right now. The polling is awful, Schumer and Jeffries are unpopular, Pelosi has already faded off into the distance. The establishment has been in denial, but hard to ignore what's happening. The time to create actual change is now, and the left has produced no one for people to rally around. It's a complete fuckup and it pisses me off.
  16. Bernie is a real one, and I love him for it. But this is another problem with the left. Always being on the right side is a bullshit purity test. People learn, change, and grow. I want candidates that can listen and change their opinion. A willingness to admit mistakes is actually good (and preferable IMO).
  17. Sorry, I think these are just excuses at this point. It's undeniable that the Democratic establishment is pathetic and a failure. The party has NEVER been less popular with voters that I can remember. I've always believed the left is filled with incredible organizers and terrible strategists. They've had 10 years since Bernie arrived on the national scene and have nothing to show for it. The most disheartening part for me is the unwillingness of the left to critique themselves or adjust their strategies.
  18. 100% agree. Enough of this shit.
  19. Yeah, but DSAs outside of NY are not producing any national names or candidates. Really good at organizing, but where has that gotten us? I voted for Bernie in 2016 and 2020. So I'm not asking the left to convince me to vote for their ideas. Give me some goddamn candidates that are worth a shit.
  20. I think an underdiscussed issue within the failing Democratic party is the lack of actual identity from the "far" left. What the hell do we have to show after Bernie's run in 2016? He ran again with less success in 2020. AOC is the other big name in national politics, but I think the reality is it's easy to get swallowed up when you're just one of many Representatives in a dead duck political system. Mamdani is currently the face of the party as a young mayoral candidate. Is Bernie gonna run AGAIN in 2028? I don't see any other legitimate option at the moment. The leftist ideas have gained popularity but haven't produced multiple - let alone, one - national figure to take over for Bernie in the last decade? It's crazy. IMO it feels like they haven't shown enough maturity to self-scout and figure out what they're doing wrong. And one of the things that infuriates me about the left in general is how the world view revolves around NYC. 95% of the "influencers" and commentators seem to live within a couple miles of Brooklyn. We've got Bernie (born in NY), AOC, and Mamdani. I beg the left to start lifting up voices in other parts of the country, and to start strategizing like there is a world outside of the five boroughs.
  21. LatinX almost felt like a psyop. Such a weird moment that come out of nowhere.
  22. Interestingly, this was the one guy they were most tempered about, at least for this year. They basically insinuated he could be a liability if an offense uses any misdirection, and a simple pass rush is the ideal way to use him.
  23. Summary of latest OU Breakdown with Lehman and Ikard: True or redshirt freshmen that will play a significant role this season: - Reiterating that Fasusi might start at LT, and "that's why we paid him all that money". Quick, smart, tough. Has improved a lot since the Spring. Mention Kelvin Banks's success as freshman. - RB Tory Blaylock doesn't look like a freshman and is ready to play. Been running with the 2s. Not bad in pass pro. Fast, quick, explosive. Put on 20 pounds in the offseason. The excitement is off the charts with this guy. Even with healthy Ott, they expect Blaylock to get lots of touches. - OL Ryan Fodje - he is everything OU staff was hoping he would be. He will play "a lot" in opener vs. Illinois State. Gigantic bruiser at RG. - WR Elijah Thomas - too explosive and too dynamic not to play significant snaps. Future superstar per Lehman. They expect big moments from him this year but needs to improve in technical aspects. - EDGE Danny Okoye - Gabe and Teddy getting hard talking about his frame. "NFL ready body type". Ability off the charts, still raw. Has made tremendous strides in one year. Should be rushing the passer on 3rd and long. Will be in the 4 guy rotation at DE. - DB Courtland Guillory - they will be shocked if he's not playing significant snaps this year. Ikard thinks he could be best cover corner on roster. Lehman is more cautious and wants to see how he responds to adversity in a real game, but still says he's been "shockingly great". Been practicing with the 1s. - DB Jeremiah Newcombe - can play multiple positions, reminds Lehman of Bowman. Physical, shifty. He will play, but they're not sure where.
  24. Elephant Graveyard dropped another masterpiece. Glad he goes after Hinchcliffe as well.
