  1. you want a safe space; you want hornfans. how are we supposed to have a thread about any player, much less this player, if there’s NCAA- NO CRITICISM AT ALL? i have no idea why it hurts so many of you so deeply, or why you have this constant need to admonish anyone who doesn’t blindly slurp all things UT, but your sentiments have been duly noted for some time now. you think we don’t need any criticisms of QE being posted here? i can promise you that we don’t need anymore “gosh you guys are so mean and negative why can’t you just be positive” posts. the other thing that’s so weird about this, and it’s the same in the hoops forum too: on game day there’s 1,000 posts just crushing half the players on the team, and that’s fine, but when it comes to the threads where we actually discuss these specific players then it’s just wildly out of line. “fuck player x, i hope he transfers and gets hit by a bus” = +30 rep in a game thread, meanwhile “player x needs to improve at a, b, and c” is wildly triggering to read in the player-dedicated thread. makes no sense.
  2. 90% of penalties are called against me, and none of them are on my user controlled player.
  3. y’all are spending all this time talking about the wr room (which was one of the better wr rooms in america) as if it had anything to do with quinn’s issues. our wr room made quinn look *better* than he actually was (todd mcshay can’t stop creaming himself over how many bad throws were caught by golden) and y’all are in here talking about the “wr room drop off” like that’s why quinn has zero pocket presence, is scared to death to get hit, is inaccurate, has poor footwork, can’t throw deep, has no zip on his passes, routinely self sacks, etc. stop acting like it’s anyone else’s fault that QE was one of our offenses worst players last year. it wasn’t the wr room’s fault that QE was uninspiring as a qb.
  4. what’s wrong with mookie?

    do not click if you don’t want to be spoiled. the house has been off the chain since thursday, shit is getting crazy.
  6. you know i really hated being able to see all of my players and their stats, im really glad espn fixed that for me.
  7. upon further review, whether or not i’m able to see when my opponent has his starters going is dependent on how i got to his team page. look at this stupid shit:
  8. i’m trying to check out who my opponent has starting this week/when their starts are, but that information is no longer available with this dumbass new update to the app. way to go espn, you’ve done it again. another dumbass update that nobody asked for that only makes things worse.
  9. q: how many teams in the postseason will have a better 1-2 than wheeler/sanchez? follow-up q: how many will have a better 1-4 than wheeler, sanchez, ranger, luzardo? depending on the health of teams like houston, seattle, and la, philly could have the scariest pitching in the postseason.

    “professional athlete” zach should be embarrassed.
  11. but not for Mack. he’s been a HC for three decades and he’s only won when he’s had a transcendent qb.
  12. it took mack like 20 years to win his first ever title of any kind, and it took him having VY (whose way mack had to get out of) for him to do it. mack is the epitome of a coach who turtles when the lights are brightest. if he didn’t have VY and Colt for 7 consecutive years his career resume screams “massive underachiever”. every mack brown title: 2005 and 2009 conference titles (VY and Colt) and the 05 national title (VY). he’s never won without a generational QB who could overcome his abject fear and loser mentality. mack cared waaaaay more about good kids and good families and all that than he did winnin, and that’s admirable as a human being, but it frankly made him uniquely bad at winning at the highest level.
  13. zach neto has one of the prettiest right handed swings in baseball. in trying to find a side angle replay of his hr today, but no luck so far.
  14. the younger fans who didn’t live through this have no idea how infuriating this was. i’ll 100% echo your sentiments from earlier- i’m thankful for Mack, and i’ll always be blown away by the way he treated me and my boy Sean, for those who remember that thread on TOS. still, he is not my kind of guy, and his whole “scared to death” persona drove me batshit crazy, and prevented a lot of talented players and teams from winning more. bob stoops couldn’t have asked for a better rival- we were always loaded, often favored, but just softer than shit, which started and ended with mack brown and all of his fears. i still cringe and get a little ragey every time i hear him talk about how he was like, “oh no, don’t say that Vince!” when Vince said, “we’ll be back.” he had a demigod for a quarterback and he was scared of his confidence. asinine.
  15. and there it is. bachar k‘s the side, and the marlins sweep.
  16. anybody know what’s about to happen if miami holds on to the win here today?
  17. literally on my fantasy team name list, so don’t even think about it.
