    Read the practice reports. Our offense so far has struggled after struggling all last year. Why would tOSU need to put anything in his head when he can see for himself?

    Exactly. Or just look at our offense since 2010.

    I first noticed how shit movies were getting when The Hurt Locker won best picture. It was OK, but c'mon, best picture? Same for Argo a few years later. For me the Shape of Water also falls into this category. If it was the 1950s that would be on at the drive-in with Creature from the Black Lagoon and it wouldn't get top billing. Then again I've also seen Dunkirk, Three Billboards, Lady Bird, and Get Out and they were no better.
    Looking through the best picture nominees it just seems like the quality is dropping.

    I go back to Inception before I see what I think as a real classic and it's a little to sci-fiey. Then its There Will Be Blood. Then a big gap to The Green Mile and Saving Private Ryan. Both of those, there's just no flaws, you have to be kind of a huge asshole to not like those movies.
    I'm not saying there's no good movies. Most of the nominated movies are good, though there are more and more clunkers, I mean something spectacular, that if not up there with The Godfather and Citizen Kane, would certainly make a lot of top 20 lists. Is it just me getting old and remembering older stuff with nostalgia, or is this top top level not being reached anymore for whatever reason?

    How many of the best picture nominations did you see the past 3 years?

    Yup - that is where I learned to love Australian rules football and the lumberjack competition (NTTAWWT)

    Lumberjack competition was/is one of the greatest spectacles of sport. Love it.

    They have a new store.

    year ago Augusta National Golf Club opened a state-of-the-art press building that was the envy of the sports world. This year, the club’s newest construction project is something that more than just the media will enjoy.

    On Sunday, the club opened a new Masters Golf Shop, and let's just say there are department stores that wish they have a retail space like this.

    The facility is built on the site of the old main merchandise pavilion, between the Masters practice facility and the first fairway, and has twice the floor space of the previous building. The teardown of the old shop started last May. Within 20 weeks, the new building was up.

    That’s really fucking nice

  5. Maybe Herman is hoping he can win 8-9 this year on talent for sake of continuity. Firing Beck would of shown weakness. Then after this year, Beck magically gets hired by a Sun Belt team as Head Coach. (And we pay half his salary to entice them kind of deal)

    Thats my hope.

    What Super K actually said is that he spoke to Richardson's dad, who said that he is OK with Demani visiting but Demani (as of yesterday) is choosing to follow Jimbo's no-visit policy.

    Isn’t his Dad a UT grad? Or am I making that shit up?
