Soooo, everyone unanimously agrees that Malik should start, right?

Watch, neither QB will tear it up this year, Blake will EE, and come in just in time to shine in the spring game:

Golson has done it more in a game, yes, because he's the only one who's played in a game. But yesterday, Malik was checking down better than Golson. That's indisputable. Golson maybe hands down better in practice, but I'm obviously going off of the only thing I've seen, which is the spring game. That's great that you talked to Brad Carrico and saw part of a couple of practice, but I simply don't care. Not that you're wrong, I simply put more weight in what I see than some angry guy on a message board.

I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't remember this big Friday night fight you're referring to. Thanks for backing me up though? Honestly have no idea what you're talking about. Did I win? Was it on technicality or TKO? What does the other poster look like?

The 'conclusion' I jumped to is that I 'wouldn't be surprised if Malik is just as talented as Golson'. That's a big jump for you? Again, I've reiterated that I think Golson will and should start.

Way to act like a 12 year old, only to 'erase' it to act like a 15 year old, lol.

Lol, I NEVER asked to hangout with you for the Michigan game. Feel free to post the exact PM you're referring to. I asked (since you live in the area) if you knew of the best time to buy tickets for the Michigan game, as they're $380 at the time I asked you. I mean, you didn't even make my 'all-beer team', remember? Lol.

There's really no battle. You're freaking out and appear very angry because some people think Malik looked better yesterday. I'm in that group, although I still give the nod to Golson.

I have no idea how someone can get so angry, especially when I agree with you on who should be the starter.

I hope you're alright, dude!

So is the fact that it was a scrimmage..in April.

I think the offense that was on display was nothing like what you'll see come Rice game. I would expect the normal offense to display a lot more read option QB runs and running plays in general than what we saw yesterday with the talent in the backfield as well as the o-line (keep in mind Nmart and Lombard were out). Zaire did look a bit better than EG in my opinion, but it's tough to tell since I don't view it as they were playing in "the" offense that would be in a normal game. If anything it showed how valuable Daniels will be this year as a leader of a young but very talented receiving corp. I was actually most impressed with how the D played. They probably had at least 3 sacks that the refs didn't blow the whistle on.

Bottom line is its tough to tell anything for sure at this point, with guys out due to injury and the incoming freshman who may contribute.

I'm buying my #8 jersey just in case though :)

If the points for the first game over/under was 35, what would you take?

I'd take the over. I feel a 41-13 drubbing.

Hey, I thought I would take this opportunity to announce Number 6. What is different about this grandchild you may ask? He is the first boy; son of a son. He was 7 lbs., and either 5 or 15 oz., and 21 inches. His feet are so big that the footprints stretch off of the area allotted on the birth record. Kids feet make him look like Bugs Bunny. In fact, he looks just like my son.

Everyone is healthy and proud, doing well!

Just thought you may all get a kick, five and six this year, 2014 has been good. That is all for this year though, I think. I hope!

I don't know anything about Rice, do you?

They were 10-4 last year. Won their conference. Could be a tougher test than people think.

Then again, they didn't have any really impressive wins last year and got crushed (44-7) in their bowl by Mississippi State.

Koon, it might have come off as angry, but I'm just laughing at you. Tone is tough to convey online. I honestly didn't realize you were such a douche. I always gave you the benefit of doubt, but calling me a jabroni? Only 'The Rock' can do that lol. No idea why you had to get personal.

A dude like you could never get me upset online. You're clueless when it comes to football...you make it painfully clear all the time. That's fine, but you ignore what experts say, people with inside info who have seen MUCH more than you. That's foolish. but whatever. And btw, Brad Carrico and I never talked about Golson or Malik. Nothing he told me would ever be posted by me online. But keep guessing.

Man, I owe Wooly an apology...

Dude, i don't know if your tired or just kinda out of it but you're totally overreacting imho. Your use of ???? kinda shows something's up. Chill out, I aint taking sides here EG vs MZ wise, but just with decency wise, You seem to be really on edge and completely overreacting. It kinda pisses me off cause Koon is a friend and he doesn't deserve this crap from you for a reasonable post he posted. This is a forum. It is created for opinions...even if they are....in your opinion, wrong, so trample off.

I have no idea how you're so upset.

You can keep yelling into a can, but I'm done here. You're way too fired up and I'm not getting on your level.

I hope you're OK.

Awwwwww, that is reeeeeaaalllly cute! I had no idea you guys were so close...if I had known I would have never responded to him. Thanks for the heads up!

Anyway, your boy called me a jabroni and told me to take a lap, among other things. So I responded in kind. Sue me. It's noble of you to stick up for him, but tell him not to start shit for no reason.

And actually, you should be a better friend. Friends don't let friends post like morons. Friends don't let friends ignore what EVERY expert who seen both play multiple times, only because that friend saw a series where the QB audibled a few times lol. Friends don't let friends do what your friend has done this entire thread.

Now, this was definitely an asshole post, but in this case, it was on purpose. But somehow, my posts are not coming across the way I intend. I am definitely NOT angry...matter of fact I had a fantastic weekend. Truly. You're the 2nd person to say that I need a break lol, so I'm doing something wrong. I know I have strong opinions and I word them strongly, but angry? Nah. Life is REALLY good right now; I have nothing to be angry about; certainly not over something a guy who has no clue about football says about QB play. I enjoy the debate and discourse, but Koon stepped over the line for no reason. I was more incredulous that a guy who backed (who so many people can't stand) would turn and talk shit like that.

So with a baby on the way and my posting being majorly misconstrued (gotta be something I'm saying), I will definitely take a hiatus for awhile from posting (besides, I can't deal with any moron who takes a spring scrimmage over a year and several practices worth of football. It's inconceivable to me, so for my own health I'll peace out for a while lol). Ironman, Whiskey, ulukinateme, etc, I got some really good info from the ISD guys and a couple other friends Saturday morning, so when I get a minute sometime in the next couple weeks you'll get your PM. Out.

You're the most passive aggressive person on this board.

1) Jabroni is used tongue in cheek, and I always say 'take a lap' sarcastically on here. Ironically, you're the first person who threw a tantrum over it. I've literally never gotten flak from another person for saying it TO them. Coincidence, I'm sure.

2) 'Among other things' is a lie. The worst I called you is 'jabroni' and told you to take a lap. There's nothing else I said to you that could be twisted (even by you) as negative.

3) You're told me 'fuck you', called me a 'douche', 'moron', repetitively. Furthermore, you tell me I'm an idiot and have no idea what football is. I'm over it, but it's obvious you're the one with a serious problem here.

4) You made up TWO stories. I never asked to hang out with you in PM. Like I said, post the message I sent you. I asked if you knew of a good time to buy Michigan tickets. Second story is this mythical fight I allegedly had with Wooly on Friday? I remember no such fight. You're making stuff up, going over board, attacking posters.

5) Are you upset because I don't take your time at practice as Bible? Seems like you're butt hurt over that. I don't know how many times I need to say this, so I'll scream it one more time. I THINK GOLSON WILL/SHOULD START. But Malik played better and showed he's just as talented as Golson yesterday.

You're mad over that? Think about that for a good ten seconds...

6) I'm glad you're enjoying life. But post like it.

7) I still have no idea what you're talking about 'backing me up'. Thanks I guess.

No idea how you're so worked up. I'm sorry for calling you a 'jabroni'. I didn't mean to ruin your day.

Re-watching the game now. Jaylon is gonna have a huge year IMO. I know that's not a stretch but he made same really nice plays, especially the one where he tracked Folston down on the run out wide in the 1st Q. Really excited to see him in August.
