Date Title Body
1 day 11 hours ago Noted

I think we understand one another and disagree. I'm chilln' and appreciate the discussion.
1 day 12 hours ago Hmm

I see what you're saying. Basically, it's that NFL performance will ultimately determine Luck's value to Stanford.There's certainly something to that.

But even if he doesn't do a thing in the NFL, his body of work in college has arguably put Stanford football in a great place--a place they probably wouldn't be at without him. Yes? No? 
1 day 13 hours ago Agreed that it's odd, but maybe not premature

Luck was arguably the best thing to happen to Stanford football in over 30 years.
1 day 15 hours ago Quantum and Skyfall Trailer

Quantum screwed it up for me with that weird horseracing mumbo-jumbo. I don't remember the particulars, but I wasn't too impressed from that point forward.

Especially because of Quantum, I'm kind of weary about Skyfall. This trailer doesn't do a ton to push me either way. I'll look it up on RT before committing to a theatre showing.

It's really hard for me to muster up hate for the poor soul who coaches at Indiana.

I'm surpised. I remember their recruitments were pretty intense, especially with how badly Washington wanted Montana.

Title: FWIW Probable USC  Commit S'ua Craven Has Narrowed His List

Post: To USC

 
6 days 5 hours ago Eh

Not a fan of the reasoning. It is in USC's best interests to play the best kid. It won't hurt the pipeline if the high school coaches are reasonable people.

We lost out on a 'non-essential' kid to some coaches who are awesome at recruiting. 

I upvoted for the info about Davis committing, however.

I loved it.
2 weeks 4 days ago Stigma is Enough; Anzalone, et. al. Probably Not Targets

1. Nutella is delicious

2. I wonder if Anzalone's reaction had to do with some preceived "fag" stigma, or whatever. Though such things are far less acceptable in the general public, I don't think it's a stretch with football's machismo culture or with a potential high school peer group. There might even be some pressure from the kid's community or family along these lines. All this speculation is to say that even if the child predator wasn't a real threat to the kids, being associated with him might've caused enough of a stigma in relevant peer groups for the kid and family to want to part ways with OSU. It could also mean that there really wasn't much more than child predator interaction.

3. But I don't think the evidence thus far makes the the child predator to be more than an overzealous fan. The predator apparently had pornography on his computer of boys less than 16. Assuming that explains the range of his wayward tastes, these football recruits aren't a likely target for him. (Though, if they were, I think they were at risk. I don't buy the 'athelete beat down' arguments when there's free alcohol involved.)
