Best tirade in cinema history
I go out, I work my butt off to make a living, all I want is to come home to a nice clean house, with a nice fat steak on the table, but instead, I get this. It looks like poison. Don't you take that away! I'm eating that, dammit! It is poison, isn't it? I swear to God, I would not be surprised if it was, the way you skulk around here like a dog been hit too much, or ain't been hit enough. I can't make up my mind. You're useless, Beatrice. The only thing that pulls its weight around here is my gotdang truck!

I mean, you are wrong. There have been very little sex and nudity the last few seasons and they have all set ratings highs. Sex and nudity was how they got the largest base of people at first but they kept them with the story.

I'd say sex and nudity had little to nothing to do with its popularity at any point.

Haha, the JG debate taking up almost every comment under the Tweet. It's not just here, I guess.

I think I read every comment under that tweet and everybody except one guy (J. Colonel or something) was seemingly on JG's side. The Colonel just wouldn't let it go. I figured the Colonel is probably Hank's twitter handle. :)

By the way the score they gave JG, 85.9, is pretty significant in the assessment of PFF.

PFF college player grades of 80+ are considered to be very good, 85+ are considered to be NFL ready.

Hank, do you know if the Jets will be looking for a quarterback in next year's draft?

I want to agree with this but I really do have a hard time putting a win total on Pruitt for this year. I’m not sure what good it does.

I don’t want to think about this, but let’s say he goes 5-7 and we miss a bowl. No way Fulmer fires him. But I do believe the fanbase will bail on him and recruiting would suffer accordingly. Then what number would he need to win the next year to stay? If he goes only 7-5 and we fire him, do we really think a big name coach would want the job? Could we really do better than Pruitt? By that point the Tennessee job will have been a dead end for a while. We’d be staring down another 3 or 4 year rebuild, putting the date we are officially “back” somewhere in 2025 or 2026.

I think our best bet is just to give Pruitt space and let him grind. He’s clearly a hard worker that wants to win and knows what a winning program looks like. He just needs time. I don’t know if he will win us any titles but I think we probably just need someone to prove to the world that a coach can have sustainable success at Tennessee before we worry about titles. Pruitt gives us a good chance at that, I think.

Lord let's just not think about it. It sucks too much even thinking about it.

I would love to sit down with a PFF person and look at their grades. Last year they had Keller Chryst graded higher than Tua when we played against them.

Set aside anyone’s opinion on JG including my own... how the hell is Fromm rated lower than him? He had 30tds and 6ints

Is PFF reputable? That could just be clickbait.

Likely using a lot of context...talent around him, time given, having the conference's best rushing attack on your side vs the worst, SoS, etc. Analysts look at actual plays and give them context, not just blindly go by "box score stats".

It did at first, at least with a certain segment of people. Every season its gets less and less though.

It’s HBO. Every show of their’s has it. It only supplements a great show for some people. Personally, I don’t care for it. I’ve also had to apply bleach to my eyes many times because of it, like after I had to see Hodor’s junk and dusty, old Melisandre. 🤢🤮

I don't care for it either. A lot of times after a show or movie has finished, an edit will come out with the sex scenes cut out since they typically dont involve much plot. Problem is, especially in a few episodes early in the show, there is serious plot advancement going on and its just boob and dong city...makes it tough to cut the stuff out in an edit since this is a plot heavy show.
