And then, even the cheerleaders not knowing when to hold the noise down when WE have the ball...
Or when we have an injured player down on the field...

Good things don't happen just because we wish really, really hard for them. It's never "only a matter of time" until you win in college football.
I like this.

Where's Green Guy Bass in all of this?

Simultaneously funny and depressing. Like a plane crash that makes you sad until you realize it was full of Nazis.
Just to clarify:
Standing up for your beliefs = good.
Being a douche = bad.

I think he brings a lunchpail. I think he studies a lot of film, comes early, stays late, and never takes a play off. He's a real blue-collar guy with a great work ethic.

Mangino Bear?

(cross posted to correct thread)
Whatever he chooses after his recovery, I think Nathan Tune is the kind of player, teammate and human being everyone on the squad should look up to. He did everything right: worked hard, waited patiently, and was ready when he was called upon.
It really makes me think of Job, in a way. An extremely pios and successful man just gets hammered by bad luck and tragedies - proof that doing things the right way doesn't prevent life's woes from reaching you.
But, like Job, I think Nathan will continue to be who he always was. And that is why he will be ultimately successful in life.
Wishing a speedy and complete recovery.

Hey Corky, that was directed at CBL.
Is it wrong that my first reaction to this was wondering how I missed that Corky Nelson posts on our board?

I'll give you $100 if you can manage to get VSBB read on the fan.
I'm in for $50.

This thread? I thought we already dealt with you...
Oh wait... different topic. Carry on.

That theory cannot be proven.

The "W" drill, or "Blood Alley" as it is also known, has been as common to football practices
as cleats and chin straps for generations. I think I first participated in one in the 5th grade, although usually the rest of the players who are waiting their turn line up along the sides so that the guy running the ball can't run out of bounds around cones to avoid a hit. You either foughtt through the tackle or got the crap knocked out of you. A Dickey/Deloach run practice during "Blood Alley" drills were some of the most exciting football practices to watch. Even the QB's, Kickers and Punters had to participate in it. There was no taking it easy on anyone regardless of what color practice jersey they had on and the equipment guys were constantly changing out and replacing the face mask mounts on the helmets from the massive collisions.
The very fact that this is just now being introduced and considered something "NEW" around here says and explains a lot about the past three years. Better late than never I suppose?

There was also a drill they did in the Dickey/Deloach days where they threw two guys in a circle of players and the first one to "tackle" the other won. It inevitably ended up with both players pretty much beating the crap out of each other. No one ever got seriously injured, and you could see that "bulldog" attitude, plain as day, on each and every down.

Probably in the top 10 funniest things I've ever read on the forum. And I mean that seriously. Most of the time, LOL is just an expression. I had someone in the next office over check to see if I was choking. Hilarious. +1

Crap. I'm of Polish descent. If you need someone to (mythically) charge a brigade of German Panzer tanks on horseback with sword drawn, get his ass kicked, then brag about it for the next 70 years, I'm your man. Let me know.

Breaking news... we have just learned that George Steinbrenner is dead at 80.

Dammit! Doesn't anybody care about the rules anymore!
A thread that's this long-
I thought someone died or left.
My apologies...
