the thing about the orange and white game...sorry a few weeks late...

is our offensive line is still glaringly the weakest unit. If anyone on campus knows someone who's a hefty 6'5 they should go try out for center.

Friday Top 10: Best Vines From the Orange and White Game | RTI

some of the top 10 best are also the top 10 worst. e.g. Coleman Thomas getting beat by a freshman (an elite freshman but still); Blair, 6'8 300 lbs, getting beat by a 6'2 245 lb freshman; the horrendous and unsightly angles some of those guys took out there when Juan Jennings got his TD...reminded me of the 2012 defense;

others were true top 10 moments--look at Evan Berry being a Berry, that pass by Dormady is the future, Jalen Hurd looks unreal, and Cam Sutton has really good hands.

We should definitely base how our OL and D will look off the spring game.

my point was essentially high school kids are beating guys who have had at least a year of college coaching/experience. and yeah spring game is closest thing we have to look at to see if there has been any progress. i agree it isn't 100% indicative of the next season but i also am not going to buy into this hype just yet when we've got OL letting true freshmen beat them in front of 60k fans.

Great news OB. A bunch of prayers were answered today.

You aren't paying the right people.

Well first of all, Thomas and Blair's deficiencies have been documented, and as you said Tuttle is elite. Also, Thomas hadn't been practicing or anything with the team up until a little bit before the O&W game. But you also have to take into account it was only one rep, if these guys do this on a consistent basis to these guys, then I think it warrants concern. Some plays Blair looks like an NFL lineman, others...well, look like they did against Butcher, but who's to say Butcher won't be elite.

As far as the Jennings run, I didn't necessarily see any bad angles, he just out ran everyone. Sometimes it doesn't matter what kind of angle you take, some guys just have that kind of speed.

Everything else you said I agree with. Dormady looked great, as well as Berry and Hurd.

Fellas...when one of the best Pediatric Cardiac Surgeons in the world says to you: "I'm amazed she's not dead" because the coarctation in her aorta was barley a millimeter and a half open...that's God.

This is the best post I'll ever write...

My baby girl's heart is fixed. She's cured. She's a miracle and it's all God.

Awesome OB!!! Best news I've heard today!!! So happy for you guys!

First SKV and the good news with baby Sutton and now baby Ashlee...God is great!!!

I will continue to keep both your families in my prayers!

Lol no, I just did a quick google search...only Cobra I knew of was a King Cobra.....Apparently that and another on called a monocled cobra are both in Thailand. Super venomous.

Do they not have laws to make people keep their pets chained or caged up?

 

[OldVol49vfl]

I'm glad I'm not in Thailand with the cobras. I don't have to worry about anything but copperheads, rattlesnakes, coyotes and black bears around my place.
But I'm also glad that we have people like Nick and his family that will go to those places with the cobras and do what they do.

That's funny. I have had all of those except the rattlesnake in my yard. Rattlesnakes have been nearby but not in my yard as of yet.

That eighteen minutes faster than I can get a County Cop out here. Incredible.

Just remember: When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

For those of you who don't live in the country. You should still be watchful for the sneaky and tricky Urban Snake. His bite has been known to cause visions/hallucinations and chest pains.

Reported to TCPS (Thai Child Protective Services), not because of the cobra...because you are degrading your kids with such a derogatory term, next you will be calling them little bammers or gators...this depravity must be stopped /)

Seriously though, very glad all is well!
I can just see your little superhero running out to handle the cobra to protect his siblings.
