	Fair position. It's a complicated equation this year.

	Always an indicator that someone feels confident in their own position.

	This is the playcalling that I feel that I can comment on. These plays need to be set up by building anticipation in the defenders that the play will go the other way. I don't see us doing anything like that. The absurd trick play on third and three last Saturday is a perfect example. We weren't desperately in need of a big play. We could likely get the first with a run. We run that pitch pitch pitch pass when the defense remains steady in their assigned roles. The game has not gone on long enough for them to think, oh boy, here's comes another tough run by Wisner, I need to stop that shit. That play is for later in the game when you need it to catch up or put somebody away. We were not desperate. Merely stupid. Take small victories.

	At the half season mark.

	Sark's problem as a coach is that he has multiple offensive players failing to execute their jobs competently. He calls and sets up plays that would work with simple baseline competency of the players of the offense. The execution problem can be caused by different reasons for different players: Youth: We're starting a new OL Poor development: Anybody who has been an OL for two or three years here should be competent. Same at QB. Poor talent evaluation: Might apply to OL; seems to apply to QB To my ignorant eyes, those appear to be the points of attack regarding coaching. If analysis shows that being OC limits Sark's ability to impact those areas, then you have a point. We were overrated due to Arch-mania (not Arch's fault). We're rebuilding an offense. It sucks, but it could improve over the off-season. With a good QB, we should be ready next year for what was predicted for us this year. There is a tendency in the humans to see a successful organization and believe all policies of that organization must be excellent. Never true. Conversely, when things go poorly, everything about the organization is shit. I'm not near ready to close the book on Sark.

	Non-GOPs want all perpetrators prosecuted. GOPs circle the wagons. Boys and girls, who is the law and order party? There are far too many people in this photo still alive. Virginia's story is a gut punch to me just like thinking of those poor girls at Camp Mystic. Those stories found the express train to my cynical heart. I now wonder about Virginia's death. I didn't know there was a book to be published. The monsters are turning me into a monster. Maybe, it's more apt to say that enemies are making an enemy of me. Age, comfort, relationships, and (fuck!) timidity reduce my formidability. I feel sorta merciless, though. Perhaps I share too much.

	  Trumps War on drugs, Venezuela and ColombiaRomaVicta replied to Wally Fairway's topic in Cloak Room But such a vicarious thrill for degenerates! ETA: Here's the breakdown of aid to Colombia: *The defense industry will love this. Most of our foreign is military based (or it was last time I read about it) and, as Gore Vidal argued, should be counted as part of the defense budget as it goes to arms makers. Military industrial complex and all that. The above shows the many options Trump had other than the thrill of having the power to legally order murder. He has many cards to play. Yet, he chooses to blow up boats at sea then to play his whole deck of cards at once. I have no idea how any of our foreign aid initiatives with Colombia do good or harm. The one at the bottom sounds good, but I don't believe somebody working the fields for a drug lord can just turn in his resignation to work his own plot of land. The rest? Who fucking knows? But try manipulating those before going lethal on valid targets then never attack targets randomly then lie about it. There were bags of fentenyl and other drugs floating all around the wreckage. Then tell bigger lies to the sailors you turn into accessories to your pathological wickedness: Nothing much to add about the above. The last sentence, ironically, is so mild a retort that it's maybe across the line of dishonesty itself. I begin to wonder if we only had three TV networks focusing on the same stories with little other distraction for the public if would be united in seeing this madness and put an end to it. Everyone who watched the evening news or read the daily papers would be able to quote the above for its outlandishness. I didn't find out about the speech until today. It should have been a one-way ticket to the looney bin. There is no way back to that. It's not a new thought, but I see the fragmentation of the public in terms information gathering as another nail in the coffin of our republic.

	  Trumps War on drugs, Venezuela and ColombiaRomaVicta replied to Wally Fairway's topic in Cloak Room There's a man. Wild admiration. I wonder if this reflects some of the conversations among those flag officers that the two guys from the TV ordered to gather a while back. I'm sure the TV guy in charge of the, cough, War Department will challenge him to a push-up contest to show who is more competent to make military decisions.

	I'm sure you have many friends who strive to match your charm.

	LonghornScott did great work back on Barking Carnival. It was the only good play on our last possession against Florida with the game on the line. It's only one play, but it was high pressure with Caldwell going in cold. I'm thinking it was one of those nice plays with a receiver open for a nice gain. It's not hard throw. Arch had not a single play like that on that possession.
- 
	Nobody saw this coming. I expect double red level condemnation from the West. Real ire. Strong words. Fuck Israel.
- 
	Nobody cares about you, Aggies. You haven't done a thing to generate interest since beating ND who is only okay. Oddly, the world was not set afire by you beating MSU and Florida. Your fluke record due to schedule will dog you until the LSU game even if you keep winning. Beating them isn't the deal you hope it will be either. You beat a shit team by 3 and celebrate your ranking. We beat a shit team by 3 and are reaching for the pitchforks.
- 
	Did I post this already? Not sure. Too lazy to look. Caldwell:
- 
	No offense to you personally, but I'm so sick of people bringing up mechanics when any QB fails. I'm not denying the importance of proper throwing motion, but just the use of that as a catchall for QB problems. Mechanics does do much for a QB who can't complete a simple pass to a wide-open receiver. It doesn't do much for a QB struggling to know where to look. It doesn't do much for a QB that is late to launch. I don't know that it counts as part of footwork, but if not, it won't cure that problem either. If the QB needs to get the ball out of his hand more efficiently after making a read, sure. If a QB needs more zip or tighter accuracy, sure. I don't think it's the place to start with a QB who fails at the things I name. If a QB has already shown he can throw, and fails at the things I name, the problem is surely not mechanics.
- 
	Yes. You're being very clear. You're a parrot who thinks by repeating his declaration it becomes more correct with each squawk. A last time before you return to your little swing in your cage, the argument is that we should give him a shot. Arch sets a very low bar for being exceeded. Maybe Caldwell can do that. I'm sure you're persuaded. I look forward to your repeat about who is the moron here.
- 
	Smile, we won! Whoop! Aggies felt strong about having their fate in their hands last year! Caneck! Caneck!
- 
	He wasn't the guy last year. He was QB2 on a playoff team. Sure, he started a few games and did well, but they were not really competitive. It grows bizarre. 1. When your eyes don't see what you want them to, switch to statistics. 2. You cannot know that Caldwell is not better if he never plays. Your post reads as though you're fearful that Caldwell will actually play better and crush your Arch fantasy. 3. People are saying give him a chance. Starting him might actually decompress Arch. Giving Arch a quarter before trying Caldwell wouldn't be anything other than fair to do. 4. How does one obtain moron certification? Is it the same place they certify having no sense of irony? Perfect circle. You can't play the backup because he's played zero actual plays (inaccurate, btw) So, there is no evidence he is better So, you can't put him in the game when the starter fails miserably. Therefore: You can't play Caldwell because you haven't played Caldwell. You're just being emotional if you disagree. That Catch 22; it's a hell of a catch.
- 
	@Thatguy Niblet is fucking fearless and deadly. Is there any rational reason for him not playing receiver? I know Wingo and Arch have this magical chemistry. The way Arch throws gives the ball a positive magnetic charge. Wingo gives off positive magnetic charge. Results: Chemistry! I'll also repeat something else from earlier in the season. The team having to emotionally lift Arch instead of him doing that for the team is very bad mojo and needs to stop. Emotional fragility breeds emotional fragility.
- 
	I look forward to it. Seriously.
- 
	Being easier on Arch isn't saying that he's good. In fact, my post never said that he is. I mainly commented on what appeared to me to be a goal when the game started. Release fast no matter what and accuracy will follow. The former didn't last long and the latter never happened. I watched the game, and, while not nearly as astute as you, I could see what you do. I've got to remember that it's all or nothing around here. If you look at my posts from earlier in the season, and I don't know why anybody would, you will see that I was a ridiculed proponent of the notion that he was not performing at even nearly a competent level, and, if it were to continue, we should give someone else a try. I'm still there. Performance is everything.
- 
	Yikes. I'd blocked that out of my mind. It does indicate, again, that Sark does set up plays that would work very well with just a competent QB. Caldwell hits that pass.
