Ketch's 10 Thoughts From the Weekend (The moment Tom Herman truly fell head over heels for Sam...)
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
Rest assured there are more clunkers left in this team's tank. My gut tells me we see 1 or 2 more before the calendar turns to 2019.
I never thought anything weird from your statement.
I think those that did speaks more to their issues than anything else. The homophobia of some folks on here is epic.
And now for those posters to reply to this post denying/defending their posts/slamming mine. 1, 2, 3...
As of 2004 he was a restaurant manager in La Jolla according to the google.

And that possibility makes this story one of interest.

Good! Hope he stays. Will be that much more satisfying kickin his ass next year!
@Ketchum You are spot on about the Long Kiss Goodnight, and I get the debate re: Die Hard... but Gremlins is a ****ing Christmas movie no two ways about it. It contains the most haunting Christmas story ever, and is one of the few horror films to successfully place itself into the Christmas story sub genre.
I don’t believe there is organized corruption, and for the reason you have pointed out.
But corruption itself deals with dishonesty, deception, and falsely claiming qualities which you do not possess (fraudulence, which is included in the definition of conspiracy). And it is done by those in a position of power, and it correlated with financial outcomes (as you so elegantly stated in your reply here).
That is corruption. This is what I’ve been wrestling with the last few days. I agree it’s not highly organized, partly because that seems to require more coordination than the B12 seems good at doing, but also for my distaste for claiming ref corruption going back to learning sportsmanship in little league.
But if they are aware there is an issue, and those in power ignore it, allow it to continue, and even more, allow the financial rewards of failing to deal with it to accrue to them—is that not corruption? It fits, literally, the dictionary definition of it.
I promise you that they won't think there's a problem, which in itself is a major problem, perhaps the biggest.
I thought the same about yours, but hey, you busted the caring, considerate person who you label in a mocking way! Win!
Can’t have it both ways, Ketchum. Be better, but seriously, I am surprised you didn’t know that.
Georgia's fake punt will live in infamy. With 10 or 11 yards to go, it never had a ghost of a chance.
Great write up, Ketch.
Great write up, Ketch.
I will always wonder how Riley would have done without the two Heisman quarterbacks falling in his lap. Not sure how much credit he is due for "developing" them.
a. No one is asking for anything both ways.
b.The dude was in a fight this weekend and was beaten into a coma. My comments were made out of compassion for the situation.
c. After reading his wikipedia page, it seems like he made mistakes in his teenage and early 20s years, paid his time to society and has reshaped his life. Good for him.
Be better, indeed.
I prefer to view Herman looking at Ehlinger as a very proud father would look at his son. It's way less creepy than the analogy you made.
Easily my favorite part of the TTFTW. Could not be more true.
And FWIW, there's no reason an inverted Hookem should be taunting unless the player stares down the Texas sideline and does it, in which case, almost anything would be taunting.
I hate seeing the Horns down as much as the next Longhorn, but come on. The fact that other teams do it adds credence to how popular and awesome it is in the first place.
Umm.... Bury the lead much? I'd like more information, even speculative information, on this please?
Agreed. Which is why my position right now isn’t about going after organized corruption. But that something is deeply broken in B12 culture right now and it is time that it becomes a regular, and reasonable, topic of conversation.
I think people look at the LA Rams and think, "Hey, maybe we don't need to hire a crusty white guy who's been an NFL head coach or coordinator with 11 different teams."
I'm convinced more and more that the job of NFL head coach matters about 10 times less than the job of NFL general manager. Put Goff, Gurley, quality receivers, Suh and Johnson on the team and see what happens. Wow, they're winning? That's weird.
How can they possible not think there's a problem, or at the very least, an issue that needs to be dealt with??
