Interesting to see the breakdown from their perspective.   For good reasons (they are fans, alums) they are going to slant toward UW but still the consensus is very close.  Reading that I get more convinced that Moss will get his yards and that the UU defense will stop their run game (56 yds/game that is impressive run D!!).  So the difference…[Read more]

Not allowed here – partially because they don’t want athletic recruiting among schools.  Of course there are exceptions for various reasons. If two brothers chose to go to two different schools does that mean they really weren’t that close? Their parents were gluttons for punishment?

There are prima donna’s in college, too.   One thing about the pros is that you could delegate a lot of the day-to-day stuff and without the recruiting filling-up the entire off-season (even during the so-called quiet periods they’re probably looking at film of prospects) there’d be times to kick back and relax in the off-season (not the entire…[Read more]

Once I hurt a finger in the same way, landed badly jumping off a ladder to avoid stepping on a shrub.   Can’t do this to your thumb, but I taped it to its neighbor for awhile.  Turned purple, but I could tell the bone was not broken.  After about 6-8 weeks I went to a hand specialist because it still hurt if I gripped in a certain way or put…[Read more]
