  1. This one always gets me. You have a 240 LB RB going downhill and a LBer coming at an angle to meet him. I mean, Bo was INCREDIBLY powerful. He ran over dudes... but a smaller RB is going to win that battle most of the time. It'd be more shocking if Bo was stopped there. I just think that was so infamous because Bo was a huge name and Bosworth was a huge name, both were very high picks. Boz started out strong, had that shoulder injury(this is before I would have actually watched it, but I have watched the 30 for 30 on why it was so big). Mainly though, people were in awe of Bo and disliked Bosworth. I still think that's the most overhyped play in NFL history. There are times Atwater met Bo in the hole and Bo just ran through him. That's more impressive. Atwater coming downhill, squared up, full head of steam and Bo just hitting the hole and putting the 6'3 225LB Atwater on his back? Are we EXEPCTING this LBer to make the tackle here without Bo gaining more yards?
  2. I'd agree with your friend. I don't think he ever had 1000 yards. I know he had a year with like 33 HRs, but a low BA. He was on the verge. Could have easily popped off a few 1500-2000 yard seasons and it wouldn't have surprised me or he could have hit 50 HRs, but he got hurt before he could have. Deion ended up being the MUCH better two sport star.
  3. And... what is it now? The State that supports the Red States the most? The State where most innovation is done? If... in some wild scenario, California became it's own State, the US would need it more than it would need the US(assuming you don't just go in and take what you need by force).
  4. Again... really not the point, but you tell me. Look at a trade made by Paul Pelosi(we'll assume it all came from Nancy) and tell me what information wasn't readily available to the public? I invested in a stock that went from .77 cents to 22 dollars(I only had a couple thousand shares and sold early, but still). A LOT of people invested in PLTR at 6-7 and then a WHOLE lot at 20 and that's up ~800% this year. Just big returns isn't evidence of guilt. But, again, just have it all done in a blind trust by a Fiduciary. It's pretty simple. My good friend manages well over 1B for one of the largest investment firms in the world. He told me to buy Nvidia in 2015(I didn't... but I did buy it by 2020). He told me to buy AVGO two years ago. I did. So if you want to play this game where you pin the this all on one person, give me something more than...720%.
  5. I don't really want to get into a whole big thing here, but... she's been invested in NVDA for a long time. Anyone who manages their own portfolio knows that's... not that shocking given her main holdings(and of course it's her Husband who manages their finances). I mean, just NVDA is up 3300% or so from 2020. But...whatever. Have them all put it in a blind trust. Everyone is invested in Nvidia, SPY is mostly like...7 companies that make up 1/3rd of it's value. It's the trades where Biden announces a subsidy for EVs or Trump announces he's rolling back the export controls to the Middle East and China(which he did for semiconductors) and you see people from those parties buying large blocks of call options that pay out 400-500% that are the most egregious. But again, whatever, call it the Pelosi act. I don't care who gets crap for it. We do some really stupid things as a Country. I've got most my money in Nvidia and I was shocked Trump rolled back the sanctions on China which has resulted in a...IDK, 15-20% pump for AMD, NVDA, SMCI. So big fan personally... but not sure it's best for the Country.
  6. I'm thinking Duke and McEnelly will be the '74 and '86 in '28. McEnelly could eventually go up to '97... but he was the most impressive Freshmen this year. Starocci...everything else aside, he was one of the all-time greats as much because of his defense as anything else. So for McEnelly to push him and Keckiesen and then take 3rd, I thought that was impressive. You'd be looking at a guy likely on the grind for 4 if not for the Covid year. And '74, instead of looking at who can make the cut, I think Duke will grow into that weight. Mesenbrink could obviously be the guy as well. Not sure his style plays quite as well in Freestyle(though, he'll likely prove me wrong).
  7. Yeah... and the guy talking about how he has not...morality(not exactly how he put it, it was MUCH harsher) could NOT stop trashing him for his recruiting updates! Now, he's NOT talking about it...AND HE'S GETTING TRASHED FOR THAT! Talk about a no-win situation...
  8. I'm gonna guess Jax comes out and wins a commanding match. He'll get a few more TDs and kinda extend the gap in this match... (I didn't think that at all, I thought Vito would win).
  9. You're interested in Nickal's pettiness? And you're framing this as someone else acting "cool" by pointing out this drives view and yet; So we DO care about the podcast, but not about the two of them Wrestling? Your posts seem incongruent.
  10. And you're losing Keegan and Melvin apparently. So... yeah, it really doesn't make sense to "break up" with Bassett. Even if Keegan is "only" the Hunter Stieber to Logan, you still have Miller and that's still a lot of talent to just... "break up with." I think that will either propel Okie State or keep PSU on top.
  11. I thought he was not drinking coffee and thought caffeine was a drug. I thought he was that level of Mormon. Maybe he's eased up on that, I don't know. I'm not very religious and find a lot of hypocrisy in it. I get giving guys a 2nd chance. I would have had zero problems with him bringing Gross in and people LOVE the story about Marstellar in this sport because we love redemption stories. I don't really have a strong opinion about Cael's role in this. I don't know how much he has to do with Brooks, I don't know how realistic it is to expect him to boot a kid going for his 5th for an accusation of theft. He HAS just been quiet. He's quiet when he wins, when he loses. But if Starocci is accused of rape...and I've had a million things going on, I'm still not sure if there's actually an accusation or an accusation via Bartlett... that's gotta be hard for Cael to deal with. If there's hazing and that weird stuff going on... he needs to speak up about that. No room for any of that Diddy stuff in the locker room! (That's speaking in a "modern" way @forkemaz). I just don't know how much of this Cael should address. 1-Hazing- yes. Come out strong. 2-RTC guys popping? Eh...what's he say? 'He made a mistake and that's something he'll have to deal with, we don't believe in taking short cuts?' Not much to say there. 3-Starocci? I still don't know. Whatever he does, it doesn't take much to dirty a program, it takes a LOT to clean it up though. Penn State goes 4-5 years with absolutely nothing(Which is unlikely with College kids) saying or doing something stupid... I would say DT and Okie St kinda have the 'moral high-ground' now for...whatever that's worth.
  12. No... it doesn't, but the post I was replying to do and YOU jumped in and said; So you didn't say it, but you jumped in to me commenting on it and said this. Do you know what an inference is? It's "modern speak," as opposed to the Old English I'm used to! Yeah...that's...SO modern. "Mongloid?" You think that, "gay" or "you have aids," is MODERN? Reetarded is older than any of them. How old are you that this is modern? I don't talk to a lot of people who say "that's cancerous," as part of their normal vernacular, but when you use a term like "sociopath," or some asinine medical diagnosis, it sounds ignorant.... it sounds like a teenage girl whining about the girls she's like...'uh, just so over already...it's like...just toxic, ya know.' But got it, saying stupid things is "just speaking in a modern way."
  13. So...THIS is our argument for why he's a narcissist? If you think he's a dick, fine, but do you understand what a narcissist is and how rare they are? Yet, it's become a stand-in for, "I don't like that person." Yes, they're Jesus Freaks...or to the faithful....Followers of Christ or whatever is respectful. That's kinda what they do. Their WHOLE thing is forgiveness. I don't know what athlete doesn't evoke God when they REALLY screw up and apologize? You didn't answer why he's a narcissist. I don't like the Brands. I just think they're dicks. I do not think they are narcissists. There's...maybe 1 or 2 people I can think of that I know that based on all the 0 years of any form of medical training I'd categorize as narcissists and I could be wrong on them. It's up there with "on the spectrum," I'm "neuroodivergent," when...it's more common if you're under 30 to be self diagnosed as neurodivergent than not and... oh, gas lighting. That's one I've seen used a lot. Yeah, or maybe I just DON'T remember you asking 10 times in the last week because I haven't seen you 10 times in the last couple months!
  14. She seems... weird. Like her and Kyle Snyder may have met under different circumstances...for a "QV." I believe that's how she met Belichick(at least it's the rumor). Just a weird situation there... but I am hardly going to cry over AJ Ferrari.
  15. I thought he started talking to her when she was 17 and then didn't actually meet her until 18, brought her into the locker room when she was 18 and...then I have no idea. I've just seen people editorializing. "There was a power imbalance." I don't know WTF that means. He wasn't a boss and while going after a HS girl when you're in College is creepy, if he didn't sleep with her until she was a Freshmen... So I assume there's more to it, but I have...really no idea.
  16. I was mostly indifferent. I didn't see it until later, but...Ferrari was the biggest clown then. It certainly didn't bother me. Speaking of which, I'm not keeping up on this real close. Is there someone who has come out and said, "Carter Starocci raped me," or is this Beau saying he did it? I don't need her name or anything, just...is there an accuser other than Bartlett.
  17. When he called out Ferrari? Eh, I didn't care about that at all. It's a bit ironic now that he's accused of rape(though...is he actually? This telephone game where a former teammate comes out and says something and just lets it hang out there is a REALLY bad way to deal with this. If the guy assaulted someone...go to the Police). Anyway, if there was one guy I didn't mind seeing Starocci talk about, it'd be AJ Ferrari...
  18. I want to see Nickal fight Islam or Perrera... or, hell, this man can take a Gorilla. Surely he could handle Jon Jones or Espinal, right! I like Penn State...or at least I respected them(less so right now)... but I've never liked Nickal. He's just so annoying and whinny. Oh No...Jordan Burroughs made the OBVIOUS observation that you should attack Starocci's injury in the MEN'S NCAA Wrestling Championship. Anyway, you linked an article that says he's doing both....so it seems like you know the answer if you read the article.
  19. I mean... I'm not an MD, but I'm guessing what happened(emphasis on guessing) is that when he couldn't get on the list, it was because he was too sick. But, being a 40-year-old and... well, he was training to compete again, he could have gotten healthy enough to be a viable candidate and still sick enough to require them. The oxygen and sleeping with cpap would have been hell for a guy like that...I'd imagine.
  20. There are not enough words to describe what a moron you are. Being "dismissed" from the team does not IMPLY it was not his choice, it implicitly states that. Has that been the problem the whole time Jimmy? You don't know what words mean?
  21. "Moved to?" He was born and raised there...
  22. Sorry...too late. Didn't see it until after 15 minutes.
  23. Yeah... I think you think I'm putting more weight on your 'yeah huh,' argument than I am... But ok.
