I'm sure he wants to play. If he throws the ball into the stands or into the ground every toss he attempts in practice, the coaches will put Crompton in there.

Why are you people so afraid of the foward pass?

Is Woody Hayes your idol?

No kidding? I realize that was a different situation.

OK, let me start over.

See points 1 & 2 from my previous post and forget about my comments re: last's year's Cal game.

This brings up a worthwhile point...while the physical limitations of this injury will be small....what mental impacts will this have on Ainge. He seems like he can be shaken fairly easily. Still...like I said...I want to seem his start this game, I have been looking forward to it since last year!

Do you possibly think the coaches are hiding something with this injury? Oh, let me personally congratulate you on being honored guru status.

Crompton managed a score in cleanup duty last year. I'm sure with a more aggressive gameplan, he could do the same thing this year. Don't fret.

Do we need to start a Ainge benching thread for Crompton.................................

Give Ainge a half a quarter to prove himself.

Crompton needs game experience...............

He needs game experience for last year!

Might as well give up on this year!

At first I thought you said he managed to score. You're correct he managed the offense efficiently. I just wished he could have finished that 4th down run at the goal line.
