I’m sure the majority of Russians are on board with this (not a war) “operation” to rescue Ukraine from Nazis. At some point, as the cognitive dissonance grows, what they are being fed by state TV will not match up with their own experience, if not already. How long will they be able to...

Comments on Twitter are brutal.

When sanctions were imposed there was an exodus of entrepreneurs and business people. As the brain drain continues there is serious long term damage being done to their economy. Putin’s wealth, as well as that of the oligarchs, insulates the ruling class from the pain but also puts them out of...

Because we like wallowing in misery?

Not sure which poster you are referring to. Several of us used “siege strategy” including me. My point all along has been that the Russian strategy was built around a very ignorant and stubborn Putin who believed his own propaganda and thought that the war would be over in 2 weeks. After 2...

Friend of mine with over 20 years in the military says they beat it into them that a poor strategy with excellent logistics beats an excellent plan with poor logistics every time.

From everything I’ve read Russia has 5 major problems with their military: 1. One military analyst says they use medieval tactics, believing that if you throw sheer numbers of troops into a battle you win. Training seems to be a low priority as a result. 2. They have never learned how to...

There is also a report from Ukraine intelligence that Putin will be the victim of a coup if the war is not over by the end of the summer. Yes, I take such reports with a grain of salt but also interesting if true.

Thanks for the breakdown on the various scenarios of firings and owed compensation. Those seem to be real numbers and concrete timelines What I always wonder about is how the factories calculate the cost of terminating a coach in the middle of a contract. They are not squeamish about pulling...

And this year we will see if NIL and the transfer rule makes our bad seasons worse or better.

I just hope it’s clear, one way or the other. I don’t want another season where you have to squint your eyes and tilt your head a certain way to find justification for why a losing season was better than it looked.

Article required a subscription. Bottom line, did anyone get a feel for what ADST would call a successful season? What are the metrics? How will he judge?

Seems so long ago that we were all so hopeful about Collins. I started having buyers remorse after about the 10th time he disparaged CPJ with passive aggressive comments about his recruits and how hard it was going to be to rebuild. Before some of you jump my case this HAS NOTHING TO DO with...

I was all into the negative interpretation until I read the thread.

So, if reading this correctly, we score a little over 9 runs a game and give up a little over 7 runs a game. I’ll take a 2 run win in all our remaining games. 😊

Pro scouts are gonna do what pro scouts are gonna do.

So the board picks likely prospects and then fan support determines the order of the picks? Sounds like large active fan bases are major influences on draft picks, so, like Alabama, Georgia and Ohio State are ALWAYS going to have the top draft predictions.

Sure. Right. Tech could win three nattys in a row and I would bet my entire stock portfolio that uga would NEVER let us do an hour long infomercial inside Sanford stadium.

About the time insightful sports journalism was replaced with pablum for the dawg masses. Laziest way to make money I can think of is to do endless fluff pieces on the mutts. Saddest part is all these transplants to the metro area could have been introduced to the local team but instead got a...
