It was little awkward talking to my 30-something female doctor about it, asking her to feel up my scrotum because of "pain," and wondering if she was going back to her colleagues to tell them about the perv patient she had. As weird as it sounds it was a bit of a relief to know something was actually wrong with me. Lol. Thanks btw. That is reassuring to hear.

Playcalling is so complex, based on countless hours of practice and game film analysis, and often the result of the play is heavily based on the QB's decision making, or failed execution. We are getting really ahead of ourselves in assuming that the playcalling has been bad.
1 day 23 hours ago	Fair enough. "Rallying" is	Fair enough. "Rallying" is not the best word to use, and I have been as big a Speight apologist as anyone, but the guy has just not been the same QB he was a year ago. I don't think there's any denying that. I really hope he's just adjusting to a new offense, new receivers, still rusty from surgery, etc. If he can figure out how to get back to where he was last year that would be a huge boost

2 days 20 hours ago	This is kind of how I am	This is kind of how I am choosing (read: hoping) to look at it. It sounds like blind optimism but I don't think it's as unreasonable as people make it out to be. Clearly this offense has an execution problem, but the coaches could also approach these games with a much "safer" playbook than when they play the better teams. You can't tell me the offense didn't look different in the Florida game. And yes, Speight had 2 pick sixes. It seems plausible that the coaches went into these last two games thinking they didn't have to score a lot of points to win, so they weren't going to get too fancy. It doesn't mean they have a bunch of trick plays up their sleeve, it just means they knew their defense would hold back these teams enough so they wouldn't have to take too many risks on offense. Again, they clearly are having trouble executing, but I really doubt they will go into bigger games with the same type of gameplan.

I didn't read the article, but I would imagine that he will rationalize it the same way he rationalized people not coming to games at the Big House (high definition televisions, no Wi-Fi,etc). People can easily go online and buy toys and movies on Amazon, and they can't compete with that.
