This is in the nature of a request and there is no reason why anyone should drop everything and reply unless they feel like it. I live in mortal fear that I have missed the e-mail for submitting parking applications that the TECHTIX people say is still in the works. I really can't attend the...

So I'm watching WSB news at 6:00. And sure enough a story was put on about the Dogs in the Super Bowl. Then they mentioned Butker as the only Jacket! Despite Jordan Mason being the #2 RB for the 49ers. I got on the phone (404.897.6276) and complained. The guy on the other end seemed...

Feeling a bit nostalgic? For the spread option? Want to see how it works under the new, supposedly option-killing NCAA rules? Here you go. This is the Armed Forces Bowl highlights. The Air Force spread option against the best rushing D in the FBS at James Madison. And, of course, when you...

My wife bought it for me. It is the best Rolling Stones album since Exile on Main Street. Imho, of course, though a lot fo critics back me up. The main thing, however, is that the thing came out and even at 80 (Jagger), 79 (Richards and with arthritis) and 75 (Wood) these people are still out...

See: https://www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Daily/Issues/2023/05/19/Labor-and-Agents/nlrb-complaint-pac-12-usc-ncaa.aspx?ana=mk_sbd_da_emda What the NLRB is saying here is that collegiate athletes (in full scholarship sports, I assume) are employees and would be treated as such. Hence a lot of...

Who like baseball, that is. See: https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2022/11/i-guess-its-the-last-thing-to-go Not only did he hit it, but his form is so good you could show the swing to Little League players as an example. Then he actually ran around the bases. Once a great athlete, always a...

Since Fritz may be our next head coach - and I'm fine with that - I thought a look at a game highlighting what we can expect might be useful. See: This is the Tulane - Cinncy game last weekend. This clip is a lot of fun to watch; both offenses use spread formation option schemes. Basically...

Here's an interesting post about this. See: https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2022/11/why-did-it-take-so-long-for-analytics-to-have-an-impact-on-the-multi-billion-dollar-world-of-professional-sports College football is, I think, trying to reach the same kind of homogeneity of scoring that...

Here it is: And now they've contrived to double these peoples's military budget … Notice the horsetail standard out front.

Here it is: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2022/1/29/2077037/-Burning-plasma-Controlled-nuclear-fusion-on-Earth-briefly-sustains-itself That, sports fans, is what you call news. It doesn't mean that a fusion reactor will show u- in your neighborhood next year, but maybe sooner then everyone...

Hire Tony Annese. After the present regime bites the dust. Provided he's still available and wants to move. See: Problem solved.

Well, the mods wouldn't allow a direct reply, so here goes. This line of reasoning has some good points. There is no justification for directly abusing either coaches or players in the terms the post mentions. However … This is also a chilling of speech here. Every now and then - like, say...

See: https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2021/11/decision-making-under-cognitive-pressure-examples-from-football Campos is a law professor, but he's on to something with this. Take a look.,

I just ran across this: https://www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2021/09/the-circle-of-sports-life-detroit-lions-edition Wiorth reading for everyone here (the mods will be shaking their heads in agreement from the first sentence). And, yes, I also become a raving lunatic when Tech loses a close...

Take a look at this: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-best-interior-run-defenders-probably-wont-make-your-defense-better/ Yep; the correlations seem to indicate that the better your run D in the pros, the worse your overall D performance. It would be interesting - and I'm not...

See: https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/32077089/proof-vaccination-negative-covid-19-pcr-test-required-enter-tiger-stadium As the story says, I was surprised that LSU, of all places, would take the lead on this. I know Kemp's orders on this might seem to prevail, but public...

It tells us a lot about football too. See: https://stumblingandmumbling.typepad.com/stumbling_and_mumbling/2020/07/what-football-teaches-us.html Yeah. A lot of the time we look at recruiting rankings and think that's the end of the story. But you can have great recruiting, year upon year, and...

It's well known that Leonardo's The Last Supper has deteriorated beyond repair. The original fresco was painted, for reasons known only to Leonardo and God, on a dry surface and has been flaking away ever since. Clumsy restoration efforts haven't helped. However - and I didn't know this -...

I know there isn't any advertising at the Swarm. But I don't know how the site is financed. What I do know is that I want to keep it up and running. Soooooo … Mods, if there are financial problems down the road, let us (I'm assuming that most everybody would be on board for this) know and we'll...

See: https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/miscellaneous-updates-1 And watch the film. I had missed the technique for washing the back of my hands included here. Btw, it's in Spanish, but it doesn't need any translation.
