  2. On the field conditions, this from Peter King: "7. I think if I'm Chris Clemons, and I come out of the MRI tube in Seattle today with a torn knee ligament, and I'm gone for the rest of this dream playoff run and maybe for part of next season, and I see the replay of my leg planting and slipping on the poor field at Washington Sunday, I've got a huge problem with the working conditions. Huge. That was a subpar field, with lousy turf. The NFL needs to take more responsibility on late-season natural-grass fields, particularly in the east and north."

  3. I know all kinds of names have been bandied about as possible new hires, including most recently Mike Bobo. So I have decided to create my own rumor. Dana Bible will be Tech's next OC. He has a proven track record as an OC and had a hand in the development of Matt Ryan and Russell Wilson. This is based upon absolutely nothing concrete, just like all the crap on talk radio and ESPN.
  4. Last year Jay Cutler and Lovie Smith were flogged by the media for Cutler sitting in the second half of a playoff game because of a knee injury. Now the media are flogging RGIII and Shanahan for NOT sitting RGIII because of a knee injury. So which coach made the right decision. On a separate note, the Redskins should have been embarrassed about the horrid shape the field was in yesterday.
  5. Just read the article on Yahoo. Good hires to put it mildly.
  6. You recruit where there is talent. Outside of Louisville, and N. KY there are not a lot of D-1 players coming out of KY. As for the ESPN apologists who kept saying that Florida was flat because they were disappointed to not be playing for a National Championship, that is hogwash. To play for a championship you usually have to win your division. The Florida team I saw last night looked very similar to the one that played Bowling Green early in the season, and the one that Georgia beat mid-season.
  7. There should have been an 's' on the end, since they were disemboweled.
  8. It could be a bit later this year since they went from 8 conference games to 9 then back to 8, and the guy who was in charge of scheduling for the conference left to be COO of the new playoffs.
  9. Great shots, we sometimes forget how intense and focused players are. You captured that intensity.
  10. Everyone has a personal agenda when it comes to money. Each locality needs to address the security of public building. In Tazewell Co., I know that a ton of the Stimulus $$$$ were spent on school security. Locks and cameras at the main doors. RFID badges for personnel that are programmed to allow limited access to buildings. New locks on classroom doors so the door is automatically locked when it closes.
  11. Being old gives me some memory of what has happened to mental health. In the late '80s-'90s there was a confluence of a couple of factors. Federal budget cuts led to the shrinking of inpatient programs in favor of community care. Many ended up on the streets with no support system. The other problem that comes out of community care is that is hard to monitor whether someone is taking the meds that they need.
  12. I did notice that against Atlanta that they seemed to run more plays where the back leaked into the flat on 3 step drops rather than the 5-7 step drops with Ahmad in the backfield.
  13. http://bdtonline.com/local/x213151317/Bluefield-officials-confirm-state-police-investigation-underway-into-alleged-embezzlement-of-city-dollars I would be willing to bet that other accounts have been hit. Not making the withholding deposits to the IRS account triggers red flags with the bank and the IRS. There are other accounts where $$$ can go missing without creating a Federal offense.
  14. I have found leaving the vengeance to God to be the best course.
  15. I believe we are all told to be aware of false prophets and deceivers.
  16. "Father forgive them for they know not what they do."
  17. I don't expect to see Petrino at a significant school for a while. His personality and prior behavior indicate to me that major programs are going to want to see him prove he has changed before they take a risk on him. I could see him at 1-AA (FCS) or a small D-1 for a few years. Heck he may switch roles with his brother and be offensive coordinator @ Idaho. WKU - I believe I had that one.
  18. DI all Western Teams & D2 all Eastern Teams. The two best teams in the final, hopefully, is more important than geography.
