I think it's awesome that I'm suddenly elite. I've never been elite before. lol.

When you pretend to be confused, why do I picture the lawyer on the Simpsons voiced by the late great Phil Hartman?

It has been nice not seeing the opponent effortlessly gallivant, untouched, 70 yards to pay dirt like those Sal Sunseri days.

Nobody knew Jake Fromm was elite either

 

[Devo182]

That's nuts because he blitzes hard and really focuses on the run. Got us a good one.

Would appreciate prayers, folks. I’ve mentioned on here before that my dad is battling dementia. He’s been struggling the past couple of days, so we had him taken to the emergency room. Just heard back that he has COVID. He’s not in distress. I would appreciate prayers that he continues not to be in distress and that my brother and I make the right decisions about his care.

Prayers for you all

I'll admit. I didnt actually realize how touch our defense was last year until some of these stas have come out. The offense was so frustrating to watch for me that it overshadowed the defensive play.

I hate agreeing with this, but I don't think you're wrong. Which saddens me. I wanna watch Gray and Chandler behind this O line

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Hopefully the offense can take a step between year 1 and 2 of Chaney. Thay the defense did under Pruitt between year 1 and 2.

It reall is crazy. Yes they gave up some drives, but besides JG pick sixes I dont remember many free Touchdowns last year

You seriously are miserable person, sometimes. It could be raining gold nuggets and you’d be crying over some sandstone dust. Joking or not, triggering or not, you’re starting to piss off a lot of those who really like you. Just stop. Whether we think it will happen or not needs to not be even spoken about til it happens. End of story. That should be on the same page as blasphemy.

Even the girl he was talking to was surprised. lol.

 

[nesbuddha66]

Well I'm puzzled. You said, "In control of yourself being right and it mattering," in response to me stating I had no kids. I said it doesn't quite work that way but that I wished it did. To put it another way, I'm saying non-breeders don't get to control any of that. It would be awesome if we did. Were you trying to say something else? If so, I must've responded incorrectly because I thought you were saying we had that control.

UTprof has a little girl. He posted a picture of her here a while back. Give him a break

I’m leaning more towards a spring season. A vaccine will exist by then and the existence of any kind of “medicine” greatly changes the outlook for an illness. I don’t believe Covid ever just goes away, but I do believe it will just become another Flu basically.

I'm the realist muhfugga around.

Butchna has kids, I believe, but I don't. But we have a few people on the site with prof in the name so you may be thinking of them.

A rushed to market vaccine scares the hell out of me, honestly. Has the potential to be much worse than the virus.

I dont plan on getting the first vaccine unless my job makes it mandatory. It's been rushed so fast no way its safe

With the public/governments begging for it, it's gonna be a race to the bottom for quality and safety assurance to see who gets it to market first. They'll probably get FDA approval to skip most of the testing process too. Gonna be a shitshow. And anyone who refuses it will be shamed. It will be the new social distancing/mask.

I wouldn’t call an 10-16 month developed vaccine a rush to market. They’re testing multiple potential vaccines as we speak. I think it’s a risk worth taking anyway. You can’t allow something like this to own everything about daily life forever. The jelly backbone mentality isn’t helping. There’s a reason European countries are returning to somewhat normal already and we’re lagging behind horribly. We didn’t take strong enough action early, now we’re paying the price.

I was playing around yesterday with Alexa Rank sort of gauging the current impact/reach of various websites :

Popularity of websites in the United States:

• VolNation.com = #15,109
• Dawgnation.com = #19,369
• GeorgiaSports.com = #58,275 (Official University Athletics website)
• UTSports.com = #62,881 (Official University Athletics website)
• Gatorcountry.com = #70,647
• AllforTennessee.com = #81,629
• RockyTopInsider.com = #103,862
• Floridagators.com = #108,689 (Official University Athletics website)
• AtoZsportsNashville.com = #112,120
• RockyTopTalk.com = #164,644
• GatorSports.com = #183,487

Other than Gatorcountry's swampgas the other Florida forum I know of is Gatorchatter.com but I couldn't include it in the list because apparently it doesn't have enough engagement to register a U.S. ranking. It does have a global ranking though, #4,193,426. By Comparison on a global scale VolNation currently ranks #106,126.
