The original is the best film. IV is my favorite, though. I wore that movie out on VHS back in the day. The second one doesn’t get a lot of love, but the “win” scene with Adrian is uplifting. The training scenes are intense. (Mick’s assistant slapping the shite out of Rocky’s gut while he was doin...

[quote]I can get with what you're saying, but who's going to control spending while all this new-age NIL money is being bidded? Not the schools, not the collective, and not the head coaches and ADs. How much longer before we break our own piggy banks?[/quote] I dunno. The problem is no one want...

1. Napoleon is perhaps my favorite historical figure. 2. In spite of #1, I didn’t like the film for a lot of reasons. For starters, they needed a younger actor for Napoleon. 3. One movie is not nearly enough time for the rise and fall of Napoleon. This should have been a Netflix series or som...

[quote]Bingo. Athletes don't realize we pull for the school on the front of the jersey. Not the individual's name on the back of the jersey.[/quote] Yeah, but you need talented individuals to win.

[quote]the science of covid alone should be enough to prove what's true of science changes what is true of faith is unchanged[/quote] I dunno. Do we still believe Earth is 6,000-10,000 years old? Do we still believe that dinosaurs were contemporaries of Man and that all predators and prey lived ...

[quote]I think there’s going to be a group that would have otherwise stayed at the same school four years and possibly gotten a free degree, who will now bounce around multiple schools never graduating and then either not making an NFL roster, or making one for less than three years.[/quote] 1.

[quote]All they need is the right coach there. [/quote] It remains to be seen how NIL and the Transfer Portal affect things, but (historically) once you get into the Top 15-20 programs sustained success is mostly about the HC. And Florida has had a lot of shitty head coaches since Meyer. ...
