    Very happy to be wrong on this one. I think we have a very good quarterback.  Wow. McKee was throwing darts out there.

    Before getting all inflamed, ask yourself whether a person needs to have a degree in data science to speak with authority on data issues.

    I admit to being from Missouri on this one. Credentials actually tend to create as many problems as they solve.

    I’m philosophically aligned to the need for people to take the vaccine, but am shocked that this sort of coercion from the federal government is legal.

    There is a straight line causal relationship between some safety practices (steel-toed boots) and injury (crushed feet).

    There is in no way any straight line workplace justification for forcing people to take a vaccine against a disease that is neither highly lethal nor highly likely to be transmitted in most workplaces with minor precautions in place.

     

    Again, I’m for vaccines, but this seems like massive overreach.

    I am pretty sure that unless you are in the undeveloped world, you should be worried about birth rates below replacement, regardless of where you are.

    Kids just don’t like sex these days, I guess.

    I had a chuckle at this one again this morning.  Fauci states that nobody in the entire chain believes they were funding gain of function research.  You mean the same chain that would be politically tarnished if they admitted it?

    C’mon man.

    Rand Paul is poking at something that I think needs to be poked at…namely why the U.S. bureaucracy is funding virus research in communist China.  I’m amazed that more people are torqued off about this.

    Marriage has NEVER been a great deal for men.  Why would it be?  A Man’s best strategy is to have as many children from as many women as possible and to let the community take care of them.

    Congrats to libs for letting us play out the worst of our evils.

    It’s not what they ARE doing, it’s what having the information gives them the power to do.  If we learned nothing from 9/11, it doesn’t take much for civil liberties to be removed in a “crisis.”

    It’s actually scary that we may be bad in a bad conference. Hard to tell at this point in the season…

    I like your optimism, Mick. I really do.

    First game jitters are real, and we will make big improvements. But so will everyone else. Usc and UCLA will come out swinging. Don’t know about Vandy, but you can’t count anybody out.

    I’m actually more worried about our defensive front than I am about our qb situation.  We got mashed up front a lot, even when fresh, and we will face a lot more of that of our O can’t sustain drives.  Qb play typically improves a lot with game reps.  D line play doesn’t do that as much.  Look for a steady diet of off tackle runs by usc, vandy, and UCLA based on our k state game film.

    last time I checked they were yielding negative real, which kinda defeats the purpose.

    So much for my flippant “they suck” about k state. Respect to them. We suck.

    I can’t get over how poorly prepared our team was vs k state. We looked out of sync, hurried, sloppy, and soft.

    On the bright side we are really good at getting a lot of 3rd and long reps (on O).

    1h is done. Not much to write home about. 14-0 k state. Not much of a qb controversy. Tanner seemed to be a bit more crisp but then again west has always had that deer in headlights look.

    our d got gassed at the end. No pass rush. Not sure we have k state where we want them.

    We change the qb, gain a couple first downs, then bog and punt.

    yawn.
