Exactly. I get it now. The kickoff receiver put his hands out to side to indicate they weren't going to catch or return kick-off and then caught it and threw the lateral across the field. Read that in Athletic too, I think it was. Bert was making that signal to Beamer and bench.
Legal but kind...
I know there were a lot of great, iconic baseball announcers like Jack Buck, Red Barber, Ernie Harwell, Harry Carey, even our own Herb Carneal, but I think Scully was the best of the best. Legend.
Sometimes it's a little luck and Sometimes it's the "it" factor like Hunter Shepard for Duluth when they won back to back. 8 - 0 with insane GAA and % save. It's nice when your goalie plays best in biggest games.
Watching the end of the Bears game last night and their offense is unmitigated disaster. 2 minute drill looked like a bad high school team. Head coach totally lost with horrible usage of clock and timeouts. Looked like they had no idea of how to handle pressure from Seattle. I think Williams...
Ignore him. He doesn't think a coach can make a difference. He also claimed San Diego State would never be good again because Dutcher would be unable to keep a team together/recruit good players now that we're in the NIL era.
I had NIU minus 2.5. Fresno hits field goal from 30 yards at end of game, I'm a loser. Fresno scores 1st in OT, if NIU doesn't match score, I lose. Bottom line, should have lost but got the win. Occasionally get lucky.
It was a bad draft, no question. Time to move on. Some really good moves since then. We're 12 - 2 in what was suppose to be a rebuilding year. Find some joy! 😄
Here's what I don't get so maybe someone can enlighten me. Fleck has 100 some players and does a good job of keeping most and does a really good job getting kids in the portal, most if not all getting NIL money through DTA or some other means.
Why can't Ben be somewhat successful with the same...
Curious as I see a number of football players stating their recommitment (still very weird to me) and their partnership with DinkyTownAthletes. Do BB have the same opportunities or does DTA just work with the football team.
Watching the early games today and I am reminded of how many truly mediocre quarterbacks there are in the league. Either that or bad offensive systems (or both).
