  1. I think Harbaugh stepped into a really good situation, though. The 49ers had a lot of talent and they were severely underachieving, so he didn't have to build it, he just needed to fix it. Alex Smith not being a problem when he switched QBs probably helped the whole team. A lot of these guys come into terrible situations with no pro experience as a head coach and they quickly realize that the players have more power than they do and they aren't just going to be respected or feared. Patience is not abundant in pro football these days. I thought Bobby Petrino was the worst, but Urban topped him. Anyone remember Frank Kush? He used to hit and kick players, but that was in college, and he got fired for that. That didn't play too well in the pros and he was a terrible coach there. Urban kicked a kicker............I think if he had kicked just about any other player he might have had a much different response. Shows what a gutless turd he is.
  2. 'Cruitin is more like like 'Bribin' these days. I was for players getting paid because every decision in college football has been based solely on money in the last 10-15 years, but the amounts feel a bit ridiculous and it seems like there is a big chance this blows up in everyone's face. Only a matter of time before high school players get *legally* paid. Couple this with open gambling and it all feels more dirty than ever.
  3. Dabo Swinney, to me, would be the favorite for the Jags job because of Trevor Lawrence. I know they might be hesitant to hire another college guy (they are all awful people), but Urban is a special kind of awful. Dabo seems to be very upset at the new rules in college ball, so perhaps he should move on now.
  4. The Jags even screwed up firing him. Why Thursday? Was it the kicking story? He should have been bounced Sunday night. Darrell Bevell get a rare honor of being an interim Head Coach two years in a row for two different teams. Has that ever happened before?
  5. I hope, because of his behavior, that 2 things happen. #1 - He doesn't get a dime going forward. #2 - He doesn't get back on TV again. Just go away forever. But we know he'll be back on TV and then some school somewhere will hire him in a few years. If that suczzball Rick Pitino can keep coming back, Urban will too.
  6. Well Dabo, the following NFL teams will be looking for a Head Coach next year Chicago Bears Minnesota Vikings New York Giants Philadelphia Eagles Jacksonville Jaguars Las Vegas Raiders Denver Broncos and maybe the Pittsburgh Steelers.

  8. I am not a vegetarian but I used to walk over to the Grit all the time. Still there, still on Prince Ave?

  10. Best I have ever heard a Mariah Carey song sound.
  11. This is never going to go away. This is here for good now. Too much ignorance to ever build herd immunity, or not quickly enough to stop it in it's tracks before it evolves, which is incredibly quickly. Doesn't matter where it started. Doesn't matter how it started. It's here and it seems to me like it's never going away.
  12. Isn't it funny how guys like DeSantis are all FREE MARKET and then want to punish private businesses for making a decision for their own company that he doesn't like? My body My Choice (unless you're a woman or gay or trans)
  13. Why are Traffic Circles so hard for some folks? I love them. I think they are brilliant, they improve traffic flow and cut down on serious accidents, but some folks don't grasp it at all. Saw someone almost hit 2 people last night in a circle in Lake Orion. (I know, I know, some people don't grasp the act of driving well, even in the easiest situation, but still, I am a fan of the traffic circle).
  14. Washtenaw County is exploding with 'Rona. 2 weeks after the Michigan-Ohio State game.............interesting.
  15. I wanna give him a hug now.
  16. Urban's getting fired tomorrow
  17. But the USC and Notre Dame gigs are already filled. Who will be Jax's coach next year It ain't gonna be Urbie And that begs the question. Is he TRYING to get fired to collect a bunch of money for nothing? Wouldn't put it past that unscrupulous bastard.
  18. I think this is where Tyler Bertuzzi's selfishness is starting to really hurt the team. The only guy left in the NHL. Next time he blows out a knee or separates his shoulder is he going to Joe Rogan to get it fixed?
  19. And what annoys me so much is what Eddie Redmayne won it for. It was a shitty movie about Stephen Hawking, which was just like the shitty (totally inaccurate) movie about John Nash, and, of course, Russell Crowe won. Doesn't it seem that with the Oscars that whomever has to play the most physically or mentally challenging part will always win. The Birdman role was much more challenging because it was so subtle.
  20. But what about David Stern's frozen envelope? And Game 6 of the 2002 Wester Conference Finals!
  21. He should of not typed that.
  22. It doesn't matter. The only thing that will matter is inflation. That's it. Everything else is background noise. Not saying it's right, but if inflation continues, he can't win, no President would. No other issue will matter. Carville was right "It's the economy, stupid" and it's not even the overall economy, it's how much your grocery and gas bill has gone up.
  23. I was thinking about how, once again, we were supposed to see information regarding JFK, and once again, it was "delayed". When the orange bloviating gasbag tried to take credit for releasing JFK info, much of the important stuff was redacted (black lines looked like a barcode). We're never getting the truth. The once conspiracy theory I believe in. Well, that and the NBA frozen envelope thing.
  24. You think the labor thing is going to be solved by Christmas. that is VERY optimistic. I don't think there will be any major league moves until February or March at the earliest.
