  1. I only skimmed the article teh first time I came to this thread, but I got the impression Elton wasn't saying that the other centers are high caliber talent necessarily, but big bodies that can physically make their presence felt, and Zeke may have his hands full with that.
  2. BTW, I thought I saw a response as to why or whether soccer games could be held at the info, and they (can't remember who, Mack?) that the field was large enough but the venue wasn't intimate enough for that type of event.Well, we didn't have the Info last year but we do now. Couldn't the info be our alternate?
  3. It's not like we are going to lose the MAC and not get in.If we didn't get a berth, we could just hire Doug Martin to storm the NCAA... I hear he does that sorta thing.
  4. If I was a player I would not come here unless I was allowed to post. Seeing all the uninformed opinions (not saying people here are stupid, in anyway, just that they can't possibly know the inside deal) and not being able to respond to them would kill me.I could be wrong, but I highly doubt your thread is going to be read by a player who will take it to heart, and suddenly be motivated to give more than they already would have.
  5. Why in the F*($# would you send me over to give hits to that (fairly well made) crap?
  6. lol of course we'll win a game

    D. Hixon

    I bet Zip Watcher made the best hall monitor when he was young...... or crossing guard...Seriously though, any moderator who doesn't go all nazi over mistakes and kindly offers guidance is the best kind regardless of their resumêlilroodude, why would a trade like that be made? I assume you are playing off Cribbs noteriety to get Hixon who can probably help the Browns on offense more?

    Nicely

    While I do think the PN16 has a big arm, I saw him check down more than once in the Big 33 game.Hey Walt, dumping check-offs to your running backs who come late out of your backfield because the defense respects the threat of your medium to deep routes is something that Peyton Manning can do, but your offense does not experience, because all your plays are inside the box.
  10. yeah, wow, they have nobody close to BG, FA, and WM on their schedule.conspiracies are more fun though
  11. It seems on more than one occasion now, perhaps purely coincidentally, that Northwestern has friends in high places
  12. I have no problem with curbing mistakes. Curbing enthusiasm however......

    Nicely

    Hey people (the few who this applies to);- You have an opinion.- Others may not agree with you.If you make anything personal about an internet discussion, you need to take a break.We're all human and we all think we are right. But don't get sucked into the delusion that your opinion is has an real significance.-----------By the way, I thought that Nicely was our future. That IS the reason why I felt we shouldn't burn his red shirt, and him playing well this week only validates my prediction that he is our future, but doesn't change my wish that we could have saved him for the following four years.-----------also PEACE

  15. Maybe they can get some of those economic recovery and reinvestment funds?
  16. 10k......... AND PLEASE.... FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SPACE THE SEATS FAR ENOUGH APART FOR ADULTS TO SIT IN!!!
  17. I'm sorry for not contributing anything to the topic(s) on hand, but I just wanted to say thanks for when I am having a rough day at work and I come on here and I actually get to LOL!resume
  18. is that the official coronation from zipsnation?
  19. That's what I'm talkin about.First off, what have you got to lose? (besides the game, which has seemed lost anyway)Secondly, deep balls and less-conservative plays are only a turn-over risk if you don't execute properly because you are spreading the defense to the point that they can't converge on the ball from uncommitted positions.Thirdly (and probably most important) even failed plays like that pull the defense off of your line. I remember when Bowser dropped that longer pass over the middle, and the very next play was a successful run call.To me, there's big difference between hijinks and a balanced attack. Going deep to Bowser is not hijinks...it is getting the ball to the you best receiver. I wish we did it more often...like about 8 times more per game.I agree with that differentiation, Cap... and our offense is FARRRRRR from balanced.But I am also not against a small number of practiced gimmickry every game to add to the painful chaos inflicted on a confused defense.... and to me, the point of "balanced offense" is to keep the defense from focusing on or predicting any play, player, aspect, or location.

  21. Maybe this is just JD's poker face (IReternalOptomist)I mean, if you want to surprise OU with a new look or new strat, you aren't going to announce "Hey guys, we're going to change!".... you want them preparing to play the same old stuff.
  22. I'm really not sure how these two are related, but there seems to be an odd family trait of having unkempt black halo in various positions above or behind the crown.
  23. Lee Renfro and Nick Cage got seperated at birth (seperated by decades to though...must have been frozen embryoz)oddly, I'm also seeing some Jeff Garcia genes in thereI suspect that Principle Rooney (Jeffrey Jones) in Faris Bueller's is A.J.Oxley's long lost fatherConor Reilly
  24. I'm sorry, Cap, but this rule needs amendments.Very often deadlocked players evoke the Predator pic.There are several others that crop up nearly every time we do this (and I'm also guilty of it) and I can't think of them all at the moment, but another one of them is Sloth (goonies)
