January 7th, 2011 at 8:18 AM
FOR WHAT? Going out and trying to work a deal for a coach that could be off the market for a long time if you don’t act now?
He’s boys with Harbaugh. He tried to get him. It didn’t work out.
Sparano deserves another year anyway. He’s a very good coach who doesn’t have all world talent on his team.
January 7th, 2011 at 8:20 AM
Jersey, can you contact that kids uncle from your video yesterday? Him and his belt are needed elsewhere.
January 7th, 2011 at 8:23 AM
I love Harbaugh both as a player and coach, but the media needs to quit acting like he is the secong coming of Lombardi with this insane coverage. I think he will do just fine in the NFL, if he is in the right situation, but nothing else that is going to blow people away.
January 7th, 2011 at 8:24 AM
@Trey — If he thought Harbaugh was a shot he had to take, I agree, he had to go for it.
Maybe he deserves criticism for not controlling the situation better, if it was possible to do so. Maybe he deserves criticism for not letting Sparano go once this all went public, hard to claim you have full confidence in your coach at this point.
January 7th, 2011 at 8:29 AM
This I agree with, but I don’t think it was ever his intention.
Still, Sparano knows 2011 is going to be a make or break year.
When your employer doesn’t have full confidence in your abilities there is only one thing to do…prove him wrong. I hate when teams cut coaches after two-three years and try something new. It fails…a lot.
I’m glad the Phins are keeping Sparano around, every coach (so long as they haven’t created a mutinous environment) should get at least four years to get the talent they need around them.
Look at McDaniels…he’s not stupid turning down the 9ers for a assistant position. He knows he needs a team that is more fit to his style, or he’ll be out in two years ago.
All sports these days are just so quick to toss a coach.
January 7th, 2011 at 8:29 AM
The year Freddy Sanchez won the batting title, he agreed to hit against some of these pitchers in a wiffle ball game. He didn’t even make contact. There used to a youtube of it, but I can’t readily find it.

And then if you want to be good. SIgn Leinart. If you want to suck for another 3 years and never look like a real football team ever again, trade for Kyle Orton. Thank me later.

January 7th, 2011 at 8:52 AM
I couldn’t imagine being a science teacher in the bible belt. Crazy politicians and parents demanding you to teach creationism over evolution.
January 7th, 2011 at 8:53 AM
I went to school in the south and I remember our high school biology teacher teaching us about evolution, but I was in a big city so maybe it is different elsewhere down there.

January 7th, 2011 at 8:56 AM
The teacher in the linked article was definitely playing with fire if she was spending time ripping apart particular passages of the Bible. Just not needed.
That being said, obviously people who think creationism needs to be taught alongside evolution in Science class don’t know what Science means.
January 7th, 2011 at 8:56 AM
I went to a private school, and my 8th grade bio teacher said “if you don’t believe in evolution, that’s fine. You still have to learn it or you fail.”
January 7th, 2011 at 9:02 AM
We all agree her best work was Poison Ivy 3 right? RIght?
January 7th, 2011 at 9:02 AM
I teach at a college in Iowa, but one of my advisees came to my office to complain (vehemently, I might add) about her Biology prof. teaching evolution “as if it were actually true.” She went on to tell me that as someone who was a “new Christian,” she didn’t know if she could sit in a classroom and listen to someone reject Jesus’s teachings.
I really didn’t know what to say. But I did tell her she might want to reconsider her choice of major (which was pre-med). She’s now an art major and wants to be a youth minister.

Hogs have 70% of their two-deep coming back on both sides of the ball next year. all 4 WR’s and the starting RB. they need to replace a couple guys on the OL and replacing DJ Williams at TE will be tough, but I think they will be all right next year.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:04 AM
Apologies in advance, but is anyone really surprised?
January 7th, 2011 at 9:04 AM
mallett’s backup is pretty good too, if i remember his spot duty correctly.

I grew up in a “small” town (~50k people) in east TN and went to public school. our science teachers (biology and chemistry) said the same thing and everybody understood.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:11 AM
I was at the game, sickening. My friend was on the sideline right where it happened. So glad to hear not only that this kid is recovering but his attitude as well.
Good stuff. Love your avatar, I read all your comments in the Professor Frink voice.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:11 AM
yes, even camped out one year.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:11 AM
He looked very good against AUB, but it seems any QB with a pulse looks good against AUB. Arkansas does bring back a lot though. They should be pretty good.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:11 AM
What year did you graduate?
January 7th, 2011 at 9:12 AM
If they work on catching the f’ing ball.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:12 AM
yeah, Tyler Wilson, who played in the second half of the Auburn game. Brandon Mitchell is the other backup, totally different style and hasn’t seen much game action, but supposed to be decent in his own right. it’s nice to be at least mildly optimistic going into the spring/next year.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:13 AM

Stefan Leflors(?) was really good too.
Arkansas is a team that would do well to take a flier on Carl Pelini as DC. Wouldn’t take much to lure him away either.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:19 AM
so have we learned not to listen to “sources” on bullshit announcments, ie harbaugh?
January 7th, 2011 at 9:20 AM
No, I didn’t husker. I’m sure I know people he knew (that’s how it works at Duke), but didn’t know him.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:21 AM
arkansas needs to go back to their traditional unis (get rid of all that bullshit striping and the razorbacks on the side of the pants), get carl pelini or luke fickell (osu co-DC who’s a rising star in the coaching ranks and will be gone soon) and you could have a powerhouse. the support is there and this could be a destination job.

With Saints’ RBs Pierre Thomas and Chris Ivory out for the Seattle game, can New Orleans easily handle the Seahawks with Julius Jones carrying the football?
With the Saints not being able to run the ball and still having to travel to the west coast on a short week I think SEA +10.5 is looking good. Seattle isn’t very good but they did play the Saints somewhat tight in the dome.

He ended up going to Michigan for Law school and he has perhaps the greatest story of all time. He’s a diabetic, but he drinks a lot (we used to call him the dumbest smart person in the world due to the crazy shit he would do). Well, he was really low at one of the cafeterias (not sure if this was at UM or Duke, but I think it was at UM) and he was aimlessly wandering the place when two campus cops approached him. Apparently he flips out and cold cock one cop, breaking his jaw and then body slams the other one before he can be subdued. Because he was low and had a “medical excuse,” he got off without any charges or even a write up. He said he visited the cop in the hospital.

I know it is tough to win in Seattle and the Seahags have looked respectable at home. But to paraphrase Mike Singeltary: I can’t do it, I need a winner.
Seahags have gotten blown out in every loss, I just don’t see that changing. I hope they Saints ML is better than -500, because I’m going to bet that.
January 7th, 2011 at 9:26 AM
Geebus.
I can’t argue with this point…..though his handling of the Alex Smith/Aaron Rodgers selection was a little less than desirable. Wonder Jed has a long way to go to learn anything about running a team. Right attitude about winning, (much better than his old man) but his follow through is sorry. “Money was no object” in the Harbaugh chase, but we weren’t going to beat Miami’s alledged offer. “We are going to make the playoffs” after 0-5. My guess is that this may be what a young Jerry Jones was like. Great intentions of winning, but you don’t actually want him to have a hand in molding the team.
Don’t even get me started on the hiring of Baalke…..
January 7th, 2011 at 9:27 AM
Bo shot that down today. Some website I’ve never heard of lead with the classic “a source close to Pelini says that he may be interested in talking…” or some shit like that.

A couple thoughts on the Harbaugh thing:
This, along with several other media “stories” in the last week just make my skin crawl. I, for one, am tired of the media trying to BE the story instead of REPORTING the story.
“Anonymous” sources, twitter feeds, and the ever popular “I heard” have been burned so many times in the last week that the singed smell won’t go away for weeks/months.
I’d just like someone to write the story about what happened once it has transpired instead of being part of the story itself. This blame can be thrown at the “World Wide Leader”, Source Jockeys that “report” for publications, and even blogs (sorry TBL).
What this “jumping the gun” technique has done this week is to get the Jets, foot fetishes, and Dongslinger out of the limelight for at least a few days. So, with the dark, there is always at least a sliver of light.

January 7th, 2011 at 9:37 AM
I’d like to think that the Hogs punter acting like Mike Scifres and Tressel’s usual buttoning up of the offense had a great deal to do with this. Everything that worked in the 1st half wasn’t run in the 2nd due to field position or Stalin style conservatism.

Max Hall didn’t lead Jack. Same with mierda last season
January 7th, 2011 at 9:42 AM
I understand your point, but did you see the game? the cards win had absolutely nothing to do with max hall. It was incredibly flukey. IIRC the Cards D played well and had 2 TD returns.
I did. Yeah it was flukey but if the Saints can’t run the ball that leads to a greater chance of turnovers and crap like that. Look no way I think the Saints lose this game I just think it could be much tougher than it probably should be. Living in NOLA I’ve sadly seen most Saints games and when they can’t run the ball their offense struggles mightily.

Well, clearly God was not on the side of those who were slaughtered. Duh.

Chizik isn’t the first coach that Gus Malzahn made look better than he really is. I know Auburn fans think Chizik walks on water right now, but isn’t he a defensive minded coach? IMO he made a great hire for his OC, which bailed him out of probably 4 or 5 games this year. without Malzahn (and Cam obviously) this team doesn’t sniff a BCS bowl.

I disagree. They each have loads of talent out side of the QB position. AUB does not. AUB has the freak of all freaks at QB and a solid group of RBs…that’s it. Outside of Fairley they have dogshit on defense (especially the back 7) and their WRs are average personified. They simply have the great equalizer in Cam. He’s the difference from 13-0, and 7-6.
January 7th, 2011 at 10:03 AM

Go back and look at their season. Without Cam, does AUB beat Clemson? First meeting w/ SC? LSU? Bama? Ark? UGA? Miss St? They’ve won so many games where they were tied or losing in the 4th. He’s that good. He is the difference between playing in Glendale or playing in Memphis.

I’m probably biased because I like Malzahn, but I honestly think if they don’t have him drawing up the plays they still lose at least a couple games this year even with Newton. having a great player is one thing, but getting him to fit into an offense as perfectly as Cam did this year takes a lot.
January 7th, 2011 at 10:06 AM
No argument here. I was really sad when he got the drive home time slot. So happy when he got bumped to WKNR2 on a terrible time slot. Rhoda/Reghi suck, but they don’t nearly approach the same level of suck as the Munch man.
