The days of THE PONY EXPRESS, featuring Lance Mcllhenny, Eric Dickerson and Craig James....... once upon a time, a long time ago, in a place far away there was a College Football Team that was the best money could buy.

My brain is now showing signs of the crashing back in forth in my skull that it took all those years ago... ...when teaching Ms. Billy how to drive a stick shift. .........not to mention the psychological scars caused by the guilt of knowing it was “your fault” your lovely wife didn’t know how to d...

Re: So, How’d You Like.......

Agreed, kickoff returns are a good part of the game...... they’re the 4th ace on the draw in straight poker, the half-court buzzer beater in basketball, the service ace in tennis, the homerun in baseball, the hole-in-one in golf and need to be preserved and remain a part of the game. The safety of t...

So, How’d You Like.......

........the new kickoff rule??? While watching the Mounties and Vols game in person, I saw some pretty violent collisions between the blockers and defenders on the run down to the kick returner. If safety is indeed the objective, I believe what Greg Schiano suggested some time ago just might be a be...

Re: Ohio State

Now that you have elucidated the entire event, I am again humbled by another Southerner. Genuinely sorry if my comments made you feel humbled........ I offer my assurance that was not my intend. Instead, I was simply offering my ‘two cents worth’ as I mentioned, based solely on my limited observati...

Re: Ohio State

Meyer has been allowed to coach after the first game since the beginning. He isn't allowed to be on the sideline for two more games. I don't know why it is this way because it doesn't make since, but this is the original suspension. Nothing has changed. He doesn't get paid for 3 games. It is a sill...

Re: Ohio State

If you suspend someone for three games, then he does not go back to work after one game albeit not attend the next two. Everyone knows that does not affect anything. I do not think Meyer had any culpability in this whole thing. Ohio State did, that's fine, but don't give the world you are taking ac...

Re: ugh...FSU-VT

My thoughts drifted to wondering just what Bobby Bowden might be thinking...... in any event that was not a typical performance by a Florida State team.

The old axiom of Football about ‘if you can’t block ‘em, you can’t beat ‘em’ showed true.

Re: Week 1 Musing

Got back from Charlotte today after spending some time this weekend with family and friends, good times and lots of old stories retold....... here’s my musings from the game. First, it was incredibly hot and humid which raises my concerns about all the chatter about ‘player safety’ versus ‘televisio...
