Only right for Bill B to go coach where Brady won a natty and try to one up him with 2. Plus, when he hires his girlfriend, it's already in the open.

Quote from: rocky_warrior on Today at 03:02:02 PMI hope you're correct.  But you keep saying things you think/hope will happen as if it's fact.  Most years you'd 100% be correct. This year MU and DePaul are much closer in basketball skill than those years.

It's obviously my opinion, but from now on I'll include IMHO so some Scoopers aren't confused.

The time seems right for John Harbaugh to leave Baltimore.

Quote from: 1SE on Today at 05:06:33 PMBut see... he does... because if certain kinds of fans get fed up with his sucking teams and bs platitudes they'll stop buying tickets to games and giving to the B&G. Do you feel like Shaka has given us anything on 1)why we suck 2) what he is going to do to have us not suck? I think those are two pretty reasonable things to communicate to a certain kind of fan.

I don't think the "certain kind of fan" you're describing is owed a single thing.

And if their reaction to not being given answers they think they deserve in press conferences is to stop buying tickets or merchandise or donating, they need to get some perspective and grow the f*ck up.

Personally, I typically head up from Chicago to catch 2-3 home games per year. This year that number will likely be 0 and it's because the team sucks, not because of anything Shaka has or hasn't said.

GO BLEW!

Quote from: Pakuni on Today at 02:51:35 PMYTTV launching 10 special plans, including a sports package.

YouTube TV says it will begin offering cheaper, more targeted packages of programming starting early next year.

YouTube TV Plans, a collection of 10 different packages, are designed to offer "more choice and flexibility to our subscribers," the company said Wednesday in a blog post. Individual plans can be combined, allowing heavy viewers of sports and news, for example, to get their fix without paying extra for general entertainment fare that is increasingly available outside of the pay bundle. A family entertainment plan is also in the mix.

I like the idea, but so far there are no details. As with everything, it will come down to what's in each bundle and what each bundle costs.

Regardless, I made my decision based on factors such as my age, fitness, no underlying health concerns, on no meds, not comfortable w/mRNA options. I'm not down on anyone either way. Do what's best for you as long as it doesn't hurt someone else. (I'm not anti-vax, btw.)

"I'm not anti-vax, btw"

Is actively anti-vax

Part of me thinks that they had to have started back channel talks given the timing of the firing?  But who knows

Also, I'm not entirely sure they would have wanted to snap up any of the names hired so far except for maybe Chesney? I don't think Kiffin, Sumrall, Campbell, or Franklin would have been on their short lists

Truly a complete stereotype.

Quote from: 1SE on Today at 05:01:27 PMSure, even if this is good modeling odds still more likely than not we don't. But it is in the realm of possibility in a way it hasn't been for a very long time. Shaka doing his best its fine dog meme impression doesn't install a ton of confidence that he has any thoughts in how to rectify the situation. At least wojo told the guys to "play harder"

"Grow Faster"?
