Re: Notre Dame/Reily Leonard Thread

As an ND fan, I can honestly stay that they are over ranked and over hyped every year. Not sure why they think they can bring in QBs for one year and think they can be consistent. Can't even say I am shocked by this loss.

OMG!! Well if Jackson hits the guy that was wide open in the end zone with under a minute to play, some people may not be having this discussion.

Re: Spring/Summer Concerts

Last night in an effort to do my part in supporting our local, beautiful theater (built in 1916 to atract vaudeville acts) I went and saw Rumour, The Ultimate Fleetwood Mac Tribute Band. I must say they did a helluva job. The place was just about sold out which is great for the theater. The crowd wa...

I had White Castle once. That was enough. It was probably 30+ yrs ago. Probably the closest thing to a colonic as I will ever have. Ranks right up there with McDonalds and Taco Bell.

Re: Bears \\ Hard Knocks discussion hub

Poles really looks to be the best GM we've had in a very long time. Interesting his last snap as a football player was at Halas Hall, didn't realize he did not tryout anywhere else. Bears were not known for developing OL at that time either. Teams probably thought if he can't make it there, he is a...

Re: Countdown to 53 (2024)

I will take that QB room. Feel good about Bagent as backup. Seems as if he picked up the O. Again, if/when you get to QB 3 having to play, your season is usually over.

Listen to Kmet's 85 podcast with Reed. It is pretty funny. Reed likes to say "bro" and "dude" quite a bit.

Will his ego let him do that? I am not saying the dude is overly cocky, but this guy sees himself as a QB. Came in as a highly rated QB, not sure I can see JF saying what the hell, make me a WR/RB.

Damn, thought NDSU was going to pull off the beat down. I think in the end, the Buffs speed was a little too much. Everyone talks about Hunter, he was fantastic last night, but Jimmy Horn Jr was the killer IMO. His speed just killed the Bison secondary on a couple of plays. Not expecting much out of...

Re: Countdown to 53 (2024)

I am not shocked about Rypien. If you are down to your 3rd qb your season is over. I would rather have a young guy to develop, like Reed. He can be in the system for awhile and if Bagent ever leaves Reed will be ready.

Agree with all on the Homer, Sewell keeps. the limited games I saw Baskerville was always around the ball. VJJ at WR means nothing. That is just where they list him.

Well, the Titans no longer have Henry. Huge disadvantage for them, advantage to all opponents. Will Levis? Not sure what to expect there. Don't know much about the Titan. New day around Chicago.
