    Manning had a good game. But I never would have expected a kid from that family to not be a student of the game. His anticipation pre and post snap is severely lacking. I know kids are different these days but Arch needs to put in more work in the classroom. The athletic ability is there.

    People absorb shit at different rates and there’s a lot to be said about having to build confidence on your own. It doesn’t matter how great his grandfather or 1 1/2 of his uncles were, he doesn’t get to just inherit their success. Arch has to go out and prove it to himself; as soon as that happens, the knowledge will meet the intangibles and he will become what everyone expects. 
     

    4th quarter last night he was forced to sling it and stop overanalyzing, best football he’s played.

    Joey Aguilar at Tennessee is another good example 

    That market will become saturated with buyers too. All of these theories on roster building will oscillate until there’s some normalization in the finances schools are willing to spend. Right now it rewards early adopters and high spenders, but im curious to see which smaller market teams can consistently contend by finding balance with developing and maintaining roster continuity.

    It was Ryan Newsome. He originally chose UCLA but flipped to use on signing day. He transfered to ASU after a season. I want to think his mom refused to sign his LOI, but I could have him confused with another player whose mom wanted him at Texas.

    Wasn’t the story that he did a literal coin flip on signing day?

    I’m in the same boat. It’s a lot more fun to follow when you see kids you recognize from their high school days vs mercenaries from anywhere USA. And then you had that large study a few years ago that showed most NFL draft picks went to college in their home state. For a lot of reasons you should focus on homegrown talent and just supplement with out of staters.

    I watched Garret Gilbert play in high school.

    Somebody thought enough of you to marry you and have your baby? Is she a goth/emo type that thinks the world is always about to end? Congrats on both, regardless. 

    I'm actually amused at the notion of some chippy, happy-go-lucky woman discovering sarvanash in their company's accounting or engineering department and thinking that she can fix him. Or maybe in real life, sarvanash is like the funnest, chirpiest guy at the office. It's only on Surly in which he shows his deep, dark, "it's the end of the world as we know it" self. 

    She could just be British.

    So I've lost 130 pounds after my bariatic surgery. You've seen the before and after. It's striking and I'm very very healthy now. My two biggest regrets in life are not ever having done the 72 OZ steak challenge in Amarillo or wherever that is, and never being able to eat a McRib the way god made it with the bun again as bread makes me want to puke.

    Helluva time to be alive if these are someone’s “biggest regrets”

    You just saw what a healthy Bond did against Ohio St. I think we should spend that money elsewhere, IMO. 

    The time Quinn missed + the time Bond missed clearly affected their rhythm. Golden and Helm became the top options with Moore sliding in as third and Bond never reasserted himself in the offense afterward. I think if we saw him back next year you would see a completely different result with Arch.
