There's no point to an IE Twitter account. 90% of the information we get on IE comes from Twitter. So someone needs to see it on Twitter > then it gets posted here > then it gets posted back on Twitter.

Yeah, maybe I'm missing it, but I don't see any purpose for it.

How about updating the banners though? And getting that news headlines? Lol.

so looks like we're going to need to just hope that we hold on to our current commits on wednesday. hopefully no negative surprises.

not looking like we'll land any of the 5 remaining on the board. only one i'd give a chance to is alexander and that one even seem's slim at this point

Toledo, aka purgatory.

You're screwing up your chance bogs...

My hypothesis is this. After working, living, and traveling all over; Toledo is environment neutral. What it loses in one area it makes up for in another. It is not like Kiev, Mogadishu, Calcutta, or any place in Somalia. But it isn't like Dana Point or the Cascades or even the places being considered in the Vacation thread, either. It is just neutral. Just an average number of assholes. Winter bites, summer can get a bit much, but spring and fall are to die for. The north coast of Erie and the Irsh Hills are pleasant.

As far as assholes it isn't like SEC country, and as far as weather it is neither like Eek, Alaska or San Diego, California. But it is just okay. Results are all up to you!

Well you guys realize you can have specific twitter accounts' tweets sent to your phone via text. Your work can't block that.

I'm not sure it would be ethical for them to use their own phones on company time for personal business.

But using the company computer ... on company time ...

With all the Garnett and Cage talk, am I mistaken or isn't Hayes a DT as well?

Are we really that thin at DT that we need 3 in this class?

In 4 man fronts Hayes will absolutely be inside.

I am with you on the DT front. I don't think it is as a big of issue as everyone else. I think as long as you have pretty good space eaters / run stuffers in a 3 man front (Jones, Springman, Mokwuah), and then some potential good one gappers for 4 man (those guys plus Day, Rochell, Hayes, etc) you are all set, especially if you have good LBs flowing to the ball and making plays. We should have that now.

I don't know. I want all the defensive linemen we can get. The way they rotate, we'll get all the good ones on the field. Especially in a four man front.

That and with some of the injuries that have hit, I think an extra DL or 2 isn't a bad thing.

I agree with IM8, but you guys as well. I think the staff is just pushing t try and get some depth. I have a feeling BVG wants to keep fresh guys on the field at all times.

Remember with a four man front 50 percent of the, and if they dedicate Ishaq to defensive end either way, we are actually looking good for a year. Next year is where they really want to hit it.
