I love this ^. I want this slogan on my CBK cut off hoodie and tattooed sleeve-style down my right arm and hope that the GTAA adopts it as our marketing slogan for next year. I can't remember the last time I bothered to sit through a coach's presser. But I watched this one. This guy strikes me...

@BilldGopher ....bowl game? Nice low key subtle brag there pal! ;) That beatdown y'all put on us in our last one has made us scared to go back to one. As an answer to your question, I don't think anyone pays them any attention whatsoever given their geophraphic location and being in the other...

I don't begrudge what these guys make. Nor what CEO's or baseball players or actors or entertainers or entrepenuers make. It's all just economics and free markets and supply and demand. None of them took the 9 to 5 route to get there.

As someone who has taught math/stats/economics at the HS level as a second career after leaving a career in engineering/management, this thread (both the on and off topic portions) has been interesting to me. @85Escape - the key to enjoying this is being selective about where you work. I have...

IIRC, it was aalmost exactly like our O under CPJ....when it worked, it was a thing of great beauty. OTOH, if the other team had the infamous "blueprint" whether that be schemes or athletes or both, it was excruciatingly painful. Said another way, when the only tool in your toolbox is a hammer...

I'll summarize the whole thread for you. They scored more than we did so we lost. It you want futher details, analysis and opinions then read the entire thread. But this is it in a nutshell. ;)

alright, I have to jump in with another thread hijack here...but Helen, Ga.???? WTH. I probably haven't been there in 40 or 50 years or so but how does this town make THIS list?????? I remember it as some sort of cheesy Alpine/Swiss tourist trap village. Or am I confusing it with somewhere else?

I appreciate your candor.

I wish people who posted their opinions (good or bad) would additionally state their qualifications to do so. I can't tell the people with the skills, experience and deep connections inside the industry from the random uninformed idiots spewing opinions about people they don't know or have ever...

There's very few people that I root for in this game outside of our own school's players and coaches. He was one of them. A giant whose shoes will not be filled.

Not an "official reply" but I don't think honesty is ever been pushed back on by the staff. Lets test the waters here. In my opinion, Geoff Collins was the most ineffective head football coach I have ever witnessed with my own two eyes based on the sloppiness of play, general disorganization...

Good luck here pal. The mods have this thread on ignore I am guessing. Along with the $$$, "personal assistants", expense accounts, country club memberships, lavish Christmas bonuses, and company cars, the ability to ignore threads is also one of the perks. Only us commoners are going to see...

My friend, I get down there once a year. My GT buddies and I picked the Ole Miss game this year to attend. Most of us are 6 to 10 hours from Atlanta. e were excited thinking maybe the novelty of playing a unique opponent from a major conference would bring back fond memories of the 'good old...

It's a tired mantra of mine....but the games are much more enjoyable live. Provided there is no TV timeouts. Which never happens anymore. So, yeah...you are right at the end of the day.

I hope you are not suggesting that we need data or experience to ponticate and bloviate here are you?? If so, my jolly good fellow, you may as well suggest that we close up shop here.

I tend to agree with you here and think the moneyball stuff is overly simplified and romanticized due to (like so many other things) Hollywood and a movie. Consider this paraphrased quote, taken from John Bogle's book, 'The Little Book of Common Sense Investing" (I highly recommend it if you are...

One of the best features of this board is that I use other posters to filter and link material that I might find of value. It saves me from sifting through too much information. I am lazy. That is how I justify the expense of a GT Swarm membership. ;)

I watched this when it was first posted this morningand just woke up. When I queed this up and hit play, I poured a stiff whiskey on ice and at first I cried. I hit pause and fixed another drink. I laughed and then wept and shouted THWG at my dog who looked at me like "WTF,bro?". I hit pause...

It is interesting that the salaries at the top of the pyramid (sports and publicly traded businesses) are structured in the same way. Financially there is no failure either way so why not try the "scorched earth" policies if you are backed into a corner? If it fails, you walk away and are set...
