Blessed with an absolutely terrifying combination of size, speed, and power, Fournette has been able to (mostly) bully his way through the toughest conference in college football for the last three seasons (Alabama not included, of course). His physical skillset is not just rare, it's downright unheard of. 230+ pounds, legit 4.4 speed, and enough power to bury single tacklers alive with ruthless aggression - he's got it all. Simply put, this kid might just be on the great Bo Jackson's level in terms of athletic freakishness. Will he ever match Ezekiel Elliott's rookie season or Adrian Peterson's total career production? That remains to be seen. However, what we do know is this - if there was EVER a running back prospect who could be given the benefit of the doubt just on physical gifts alone, it's Leonard Fournette. He's that special, folks.

Brett Kollmann has a great Youtube channel, and is breaking down other draft picks in the coming weeks.

****SPOILERS FOR THE ENDING*******












You find out early on the guy has 300 grand because he got it in a settlement when his daughter was killed in a car accident. Turns out 300 grand wasn't enough because he kidnapped the girl that caused his daughter to die and impregnated her so he can have another daughter. The way he does this is gross and funny at the same time (artificially) and because he tries to do it to the girl robber after she dies.

Start with Black Narcissus and The Red Shoes

I've seen the movie and its a fun sports film, very much like Cool Runnings.


In fact
*Mild Spoilers*
they make reference to the Jamaican Bobsled team in the movie.

I've been in a 16 team auction league for years, and here's what I've learned.

Group your players in tiers, and try to get one of the first ones in that tier. Never wait on the last player in that group, those usually get into a bidding war.

Put a personal floor and ceiling on players you want, and do your best to stay in those prices (it's not easy).

You're going to have to pay a premium for "sleeper" players that you can wait for in drafts.

Average, run of the mill players that always put up reliable stats are not popular in auctions.

If you plan on doing this again next year, write down every player and their auction price. It gives you a great idea for price ranges in future auctions.

I've read plenty on Adam and Alison's sureddits, and the bullet points are this:

01/05/15 - Adam Carolla has the first podcast of the year, says Alison will not be apart of the show for 2015, wishes her well and says she would make a better lead than side kick. Gina Grad is hired as a temp news
girl
01/05 - 01/08 - various twitter updates by Alison imply that she was blind-sided by this, but seems upbeat about her situation. Fans start asking for a better answer
01/08 - Alison has her first ARIYNBF with the Thursday gang, goes into a bit more detail about the whole thing. Summary, while upset she's happy about the opportunity this presents for her own show (which she is now recording out of her house)
01/12 - Adam breaks his relative silence and goes on for about an hour on his podcast. He gives 10 reasons why she was fired, mainly because she doesn't have motor and did not back him or the Adam Carolla brand.

Since then Alison has not responded, just wished everyone well.

Adam fans are happy with the explanation, just not on how it was handled and don't seem crazy about the new girl.

Alison has picked up a ton of support, but keeping it is yet to be determined.

I didn't go through everyone's posts, but has anyone brought up the idea of Kevin's mom just simply calling the damn house? She's at the airport in part 1 worried about Kevin... why not pick up a damn payphone and see if he's at home and is safe?

---

The mom was told that "Ma Bell will need a couple of days to patch it up" by the telephone repair guy, and just took his word for it. If she called the next day, it would of worked.

It's after 8 by the time Kevin makes it back to his house. If you listen to the church bells, they ring 8 times.

The Automatic lights might have something to do with the time as well, but Harry and Marv don't tell the audience the exact time when they go off.

This movie does plenty to cover its bases, except when it comes to the phones. The phones don't work, but the Dad can call the neighbors the next day, Kevin can order a pizza, and Kevin calls from inside his house to squeal on the cops (who also don't have caller Id).
