    BRINGING THE JUICE

    Exactly! I was watching some bowl game...one of the horrible ones I think...and a player jumped up after making a tackle eight yards past the LOS and basically did an end-zone dance. I told the misses, "that'd be like the guy at the grocery store doing a dance after he loads each bag of...

    Yeah, that was a beat-down. It looked like a bad G5 team vs a good P5 team. We need some of what Maryland has on O.

    Yeah, the GT BioChemEng + the Emory Med is a real powerhouse. In my senior project one of my partners was a full-time CDC researcher with a Medical Degree coming back to get her ChemE degree. She was working on the early Monoclonal Antibody production processes and wanted to understand chemical...

    Bowl Season

    Fair enough. I manage engineers and scientists in research and development. They all have tough objectives that affects their pay. I don't really worry about sick days, or vacation days...if truth be told. Get the job done and I'll be very happy as the objectives are hard. If they exceed the...

    Bowl Season

    No, didn't offend me at all, but I don't know why you'd come on a board to brag about what a hard-@55 boss you are is all. Personally, I care a lot more about output than input, results than effort. It's why this whole 'effort-based defense' is silly. Give all the effort you got and still don't...

    It was Covid's fault. We all know that, right? ;)

    Quez Jackson Declares for the Draft

    Great for Quez. He is such an effort player that just went all out. I hope the best for him and will look to see him on Sundays :)

    Thanks, how did you guys land another good QB? I was really glad to see Pickett leave and now you get the transfer. Ugh.

    Gibbs has announced his commitment to bama

    All quite possible and as I say, I hope that's true. All along I've tried to be consistent in saying "if the rumors are true that is really disappointing." If I've slipped up and not added that caveat anywhere I apologize. I was really expressing my dismay at the thought of any GT football...

    Gibbs has announced his commitment to bama

    Nothing to do with him transferring. I'm fine with him transferring if that's what he wants. But, if it is true that he only played a couple of plays in the UGA because he didn't want to get hurt and mess up him potential transfer.... then yes, yes, I do think that would fall into the 'quitting...

    Gibbs has announced his commitment to bama

    First off, you presume too much when you decide that I (or others who are less than tickled at the way he behaved in the UGA game) stopped my support of the program. So that argument is not only weak, it is fallacious and malicious. Ad hominin attacks don't help you. He probably doesn't care...

    Gibbs has announced his commitment to bama

    Everyone's got to be who they are and live with the way it makes others see them. We are fans and it is entertainment for us. If he can't take fans having an opinion he should make another career choice. Do I blame him for leaving? Nope, like I said if he doesn't want to be here then both he...

    Gibbs has announced his commitment to bama

    I'm just guessing, but I figure the only thing that was 'hurt' was his feelings after getting yelled at for screwing up the opening kickoff return so badly. Again, just putting two and three together, but it wouldn't surprise me that his heart wasn't in it anyway since he had already decided to...

    New Hires........so far.

    It's also quite possible that Thacker has what it takes to be a good DC (and CGC is right in his assertions there), but that Thacker just isn't ready yet. In some business situations it makes sense to 'stretch' a developing talent to grow them. But not when you are 9 for the last 36 and at risk...

    Is it just me, or do players who transfer from GT seem to do better than they did while here? Maybe it's the level of competition is less? Or just me only noticing the ones who do better? Yep, I'm sure it's just me.

    Gibbs has announced his commitment to bama

    Yes, I think he'll be a great target. I agree with whoever said that I'm not convinced in his ability to pound it up the middle. And certainly don't see him as a up-the-middle guy in the NFL. I think his best bet is to be slot-type back. I'm sure he'll do well. I hate to lose him, but I don't...

    Pitt and BC for sure. UNC, right? Looking below, by end of year ranking that we played, the QBs who will be gone are: Picket - Pitt Sam Howel - UNC Dennis Grosel - BC Jordan Yates - Wait, he was on our team ;) We played 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 11, 14, 15 and had 12 and 13 on our side... RK NAME 1...
