I like this website, but there's no denying it's filled with a bunch of fricking drool cups. The OP is one of them.

I think Ott is really knowledgeable, he just has a hard time with the brain to mouth connection.

Got a picture with Greedy coming out of brookshires on Norris ferry a year or two ago. Nice guy.


Greedy and his brother, who also played in the NFL, lived in a house in a subdivision off Norris Ferry. Informed sources tell me they liked to party.

I think Greedy moved to Houston last year.
Suffered permanent nerve damage in his shoulder which ended his three year NFL career several years ago. Recently bounced around UFL but pretty sure his playing days are behnd him.

Mahomes threw for 370 and 4 TDs


I wasn't familiar with Mahomes until that game. He was incredible, all while under duress from a very good LSU D.
That defense was on the verge of being elite, and then Damien James was kicked off.

Who lost to Louisiana Christian University . I didn’t even know they had a football team.


I think they were previously named Louisiana College. They're a NAIA school.

I would blame this more on the religious zealots that control the country. They will never agree to disarm and it’ll always turn into this if they remain in power. I don’t think you can negotiate with them


Agree. Which raises the question: Why TF didn't we know that before we started this war? Absolutely no lessons learned from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Didn’t they also throw D-cell batteries at him? Or was that someone else?

Go recruit DB’s, RB’s and WR’s that are coming out of college that don’t make NFL rosters. Add a TE or tall WR for goalie.


Those guys may tick the athleticism and meanness boxes that our national team lacks, but there’s no way in hades they could come remotely close to mastering the technique of the game in that short of a timeframe. For our top athletes to compete at a high level internationally they’ve got to devote 100% to Futbol from age 3.
quote:

I disagree with that. Not all schools, but there are a bunch that are every bit as rabid as European and South America fans. Hell, weve had fans kill each other over football losses. Coaches have had bricks thrown thru their windows after losses and thats just Bama fans.


The USA has pockets of fan groups, especially in the SEC, who approach the all consuming passion of the Futbol fan, but they are just that, pockets. Futbol dominates the mental health of entire nations in Europe and South America.
quote:

Did we win the World Baseball Classic? We're only good at sports that we invented here in America (like basketball or American Football). With the resources and built-in advantages, we should "kick ***" at everything.


We didn’t invent swimming or track and field and dominate those events in international competitions.
And we didn’t invent ice hockey and just won a gold.
Soccer is different—it is more than a sport in the South American and European countries; it is hardwired in their cultures, equivalent to a religion. Most posters here, me included, are passionate college football fans but I’d wager that our passion pales in comparison to the Futbol cult.
quote:

More kids play soccer now than baseball and football


And many can’t walk and chew gum at the same time but still get participation trophies. And then middle school arrives, and the real athletes abandon soccer and devote themselves to American sports.
