This guy has a Latino accent which is a really cool sound. I’m sorry if that comment offends anyone. I’m not always up to speed on what previously safe words are now outrageously offensive

Yeah cool is a bit offensive, I think "lit" "crisp" or "buttery" are used in these modern times.

“When They See Us”

Is a excellent watch on Netflix. It’s about the Central Park 5 teens who were wrongly convicted of rape and attempted murder. Really hard to watch tho the treatment of those kids.

It's why many advocate to punish those who cry wolf

Yea it’s a little different bc it wasn’t the victim who alleged them it was all the lead investigator who despite no evidence was on a witch hunt for them.

Haven’t watched it all yet but saw the 1st episode depicting the interrogations and it’s awful. The lead investigator that interrogated the boys eventually became a mystery author so you know she knows how to fabricate a story or “confession.”

I'm embracing the rebuild. We bottomed out in 2017, on the field and administratively. I hope I'm not the only one who would be content with 7-5 in 2019 and 8-4 in 2020.

Of course, it's always going to come down to "how did we lose those 5/4" which will have people pissing and moaning. You lose close, and people are going to get vitriolic and nitpick individual players and playcalls. You lose handily, people are going to be discouraged and nihilistic, if not completely numb.

Spot on. It's a lot easier for me to say "I'll be happy with 7-5" then it is to actually watch the 5 losses. If they get blown out I'm mad b/c they're so far from even competing. If the game is close I get all mad about 1 or 2 play calls or a bad penalty that could have made the difference.

In hindsight, 5-7 was probably about right for last year's talent level, but actually watching Missouri and Vanderbilt carve us up was super painful.

especially since it wasn't the first time we've seen it recently.

I thought 6-6 if Pruitt could work some magic, but I also didn't predict the amount of OL injuries we had. So 5-7 was where we ended up, the Auburn upset and KY curb stomp showed what the team can do at full strength though. But Vanderbilt showed where they were depth wise, and that's why the "need more talent" on roster isn't completely off base.

We've got 22-25, but the depth beyond there has shown itself to be lacking still.
