We should be running, not passing.

Someone else brought up The Freeze in Atlanta. That guy (or at least the one that was doing it in 2017) was a 26-year old guy who had been a member of the grounds crew since 2012 and was a track athlete since his junior year of high school and had run as high as D-II in college.

Yeah, I don't know ol' Red's background, but that guy is motoring. I'm willing to bet he's done some things on a track, too. Between that and his age relative to most posters here, he wins without much effort.

Man, I wish I could be as optimistic about the season as some of you, but getting blown out in two games and barely beating a MAC team has me once again questioning how I prioritize my weekend time.

We’re not bad, we’re just not good. Hopeful, but not optimistic that things will start turning next week.

I was amazed at slow i am when i timed myself in a 40 yard sprint at the tender age of 58. I think i ran about 8.7 and nearly pulled a hammy. Age is a terrible thing.

Happy Rosh Hashanah to our Hebrew audience. (But this new year looks too familiar)

Gabe Jacus is a specimen but a really horrible football player. I can't remember last time I've seen a player consistently make such terrible reads and take such horrendous angles. It makes him an absolute non factor...

Okay, so after that drive seeing Paddock !!!! the bed why exactly aren’t we getting Leary some experience? I mean are we afraid he’s gonna get hurt? Probably a transfer candidate after this year if they’re not gonna give him a chance.
