Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[volbeast33]

Listen I'm excited to hear all the practice notes because it's getting close to game time, but we've heard the same shi* for the past 14 year.

JG was a monster in practice and Dobbs sucked in practice.

You are getting practice notes from people that are not scouts and don’t really know what they are looking for.

 

[SweetasSoda]

I actually hate the practice reports - gets my hopes up and they are always dashed.

every year.

I wish we didn't hear a peep and just started with game 1.

The practice heros never turn out.

So y'all checking out until you show up for the first game?

Seriously, how exciting would it be to go to the first game without knowing who was where?

 

[Weezer]

This is how I feel about the Olympics.

Sorry, America: China's leading the real Olympic medal count (yahoo.com)

1.4 billion people compared to 326 million people.

The last time we lost the Summer Olympics was the Beijing Games in 2008. As the host nation, I just assume China cheated that year. But now we're on the verge of losing to them in Japan. They still have us by 7 golds, and I'm not sure there's enough medal events left where we're actually contenders.

Men's wrestling has a chance.

So did my ex

You only have one nut? What happened, she take the other one with her?...

Actively working on your craft. Being an activist

Dee.

 

[Ace]

Do not become over enthusiastic over player reports from journalist who know very little about football.

 

[butchna]

No, i can't check out. I am addicted.

And we’re victims as a result.

 

[Rishvol]

Dee.

Yeah you're right. The Chinese athletes would be executed if they were an activist

What are you talking about?!?! Adams could tell you every play before it happens

 

[Jackcrevol]

Activism begets change, change is progress.

Not all change is good

 

[Rishvol]

Progress for the sake of progress is never a good thing

 

[Skullbone]

I wonder if they have to put suicide nets around their athlete's hotel like back home.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Progress for the sake of progress is never a good thing

it is when last progress was made in 30's and then again in 50's. Some progress is better than none.

 

[Vols4us]

Activism begets change, change is progress.

Same thing Hitler, Stalin and Mao said - just in different terms. Not even going to agree to disagree with that comment.

I don't know if they "want" Milton to be the guy or not. I've maintained he is the best athlete of the group, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was true simply because of the way his athleticism could give them more options.

I do know this. The idea of Milton being handed the job for free doesn't hold water when those other three guys had an entire Spring to convince CJH to not bring in another QB and they couldn't do it.

The thing about Milton is people thinks if he can run then he wins the job. If he cant pass then all you have is a running QB and from the practice report he has no touch and drills the ball. I am all for the best QB wins the job but just because Milton might run better means nothing if he cant throw. Being the best athlete does not make one the best QB

Not always cheif. There's been a lot of crap change rapidly for the worse over the last few years imo.

When I say athlete... I mean size, speed, and arm strength.

Milton is the best combination of those three that we have, and I don't think anyone is close to matching his arm strength.

As far as throwing lasers in practice, I'm not worried. There are probably 5 examples of him taking some velocity off and showing touch in the Minnesota game last season.

An idiot named Skoal Can once said "I'd rather say woah than go" and I think that definitely applies to arm strength.

Progress is not always progressing to something better.

I was bantering back and forth with Rish.

Understood. I dont completely believe that, btw.
