I mean, now Panama City Beach even sucks for Spring Break. What is this poo? 

 There was a really good documentary on spring break in Florida from the mid 80s to mid 90s. I wish I could remember the name of it. MTV was a major player in the early 90s. The drinking laws were to get the kids out. The money wasn't worth it anymore for the trouble the kids caused.

Best I can tell, about 15-20 years ago, MTV went for the 14-year old girl demographic and never came back. Heck, until you said something, I wasn't even sure it still existed as a channel.

 

It happened around 2003-2005 from what I gather. It just went to poo. Supposedly, hey still have it. But it’s on MTVU, which I did not know existed until today.

MTV died for me when they had to change from being a radio station on TV into a TV station that played some stuff that was on the radio.

I actually got to tour it and be on MTV my senior year, 1982, right before they turned into a national phenomenon. When we visited the VJs didn't think anyone was watching it, while my buddies and I had it on like 5 hours a day

Thats Nina Blackwood in the middle she was so cool, they all were - got to play Space Duel on the set with JJ Jackson and we introduced a Split Enz video with Alan Hunter!

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
