last time i saw kyle allen play, he was no better than haskins. but alas.
what’d he ever do to you?
re: haskins, this is also what happens when the folks who drafted you move on. daniel jones won’t see the pine as long as gettleman is there, for example.
even a tape that’s nothing but the 30+ times fumbled or threw a pick? f ck are you talking about?
huh
me: when the gm that drafted you is gone, your job gets tenuous.

these guys: HE’S TERRIBLE CAN’T YOU SEE AND DANIEL JONES BEING A TURNOVER MACHINE IS JUST A PERSONALITY QUIRK.
ok, let’s try this differently: ron rivera is in charge and he went with the guy he worked with in carolina last season. is this really that difficult for you to get?

his career, going back to virginia tech, has had such an interesting arc. i'm not sure when he's caught a break.
gets to virginia tech as a five-star recruit. shares the job with sean glennon as a freshman (tangent: if you want to see a game where it seems like the defense has 15 players, check out va tech-lsu from 2007).
plan was to redshirt him in '08, but tech lost to east carolina in their first game, and the line was too bad for glennon to do anything behind it.

sooooo welcome back, tyrod. that's...not really a good break for tyrod. you get to play because you're fast enough to save yourself

every word kevin says in this quote is true
something folks probably can't get from watching on tv is how the former athletes who are now my colleagues take the same approach and pride in their work from the field and use it in broadcasting. and they're *much* more open to critique than us "real" journalists.
and @Foxworth24 isn't just jumping on tv talking. he's hitting the road, doing magazine features, something i personally wouldn't have had the confidence to do until very recently. a rare talent indeed.

soooo if someone in cuba, who wanted to live at home but wished it was better, complained about his country, would you tell that person to be quiet?
armando, do you know what "amendment" means?
you should read up on this thing called the dred scott decision.

not sure where to begin on this one
thing is, this ain't about the effort. most guys i've talked to think their programs are doing the best they can. they don't think that's good enough.

don't celebrate this at the expense of the united groups' real and legitimate concerns.
i just wanna know who encouraged those ohio state players to put that out. wasn't any need to, as far as i can tell. i think that's the part that's uncomfortable. feels like someone grown encouraged them to undercut their peers.

peers, btw, who are working WITH the big ten.

oh?
just wanna point out that kirk ferentz did that whole I DIDN'T KNOW! routine last month, and the college football media gave him the benefit of the doubt.

only to find out the school already investigated this and ferentz already knew the findings.
so, college football media, anyone wanna explain how they let ferentz play them when what he had to say to the press last month was obviously implausible? how'd you fall for that?

i don't really know what to say about this, but i will tell you a story about the voting rights act...
in 2005, jesse jackson was at the nabj convention in atlanta. this was probably the time when i was most inclined toward skepticism toward jesse (loooooong discussion for another day).

anyway, jesse was there to let people know the voting rights act was up for renewal.
to me, this seemed like a bit of grandstanding from jesse. i mean, the voting rights act was up for renewal. got it. but...i mean, it's not like they'd ever get rid of the voting rights act. they couldn't be that crazy or shameless. we were *past that*, right?

right?
