Why couldn’t he have been more like this vs Twitter Troll?

Former NFL WR Ken Burrough has passed away. Had a long productive career…mostly with the Houston Oilers.

Correct but he does himself no good when he blathers on w/ zero context and the media takes his sound bites to paint him back in Putin’s corner. If he’d STFU and let whoever is pulling Biden’s strings handle this he’d do himself some favors. He finally gets closure on the Russia hoax and puts...

How’s that worked out for Joey Gallo & his ilk? Mario Mendoza has requested they replace his name w/ Gallo when referencing the “Mendoza Line”. Shifts have been around for decades. They’re more exaggerated now so hitters need to adjust or get DFA’d. Like you stated earlier, “To me, if a team...

20 wins. Well done.

I met a neighbor of Weiland years ago on a customer ride-along. This dude worked for US Tobacco (or whoever owned Camel at the time). He said Scott was a great kid and could wring Scott’s big brother’s neck for introducing him to heroin. This was long before Scott died but I think even the...

Just finished “Hate Inc” by Matt Taibbi. He does a great job showing how media has devolved through the decades from news delivery to revenue stream.

Loses the lead and promptly retakes it w/ a huge 3 by Hubb and a deuce by Wesley.

Sure…it could be an advantage but ND is too conservative to ensure that happens outside of ND (since the school can’t facilitate NIL…at least get caught doing it). Another thing ND should do (IMO) is publicly (yes, I’m sure they do it in living rooms) stress the small % of kids who make an NFL...

Loved his voice in his prime. He got really strung out soon after and has battled addiction since. Watched some interviews w/ him on YouTube where he sounded fine but looked really rough. Rest In Peace.

I agree. He’s like a middle manager trying to appease his bosses and his underlings. I think ND is in a no-win situation w/ big time CFB as it sits today. They’ll always be a step (or three) behind the P5 factories as it relates to NIL. Until they reconcile taking on undergrad transfers (w/o the...

Nah, got go w/ a brand a Domer promoted…LA Gear

That’s fair. It’s also fair to say this year’s team could very well be better than 2021 but w/ a worse record b/c of the schedule. ND lucked out last year with every team other than Cincy being worse than expected going into the season. Even Cincy wasn’t better than we expected. Now Freeman...

Kyle Dunnigan needs much more exposure w/ his Biden impression. It’s hilarious. Even Biden fans should enjoy it…well…may not them.

Side note to your post^^^. I’m still fascinated by the housing bubble/meltdown. I’ve read “The Big Short” and another book (forgot the title) on the fall of Lehman Bros written by a former trader who saw it happen in real time. In addition, there are some great docs covering some of the other...
