Well, if we're talking language, I got that from my Pee Wee coaches.

But even they never kicked me.

Some pee wee coaches were the worst because they were usually frustrated dummy holders in high school now coaching to make sure their kids get to play so the volunteer.  My dad was a Gamecock football player (tight end)- Dad actually signed with Montreal (CFL)--so he was no slouch. when I was playing, he was still in his 20s.  He once saw a coach slap me in the helmet very hard (from behind) and it nearly knocked me down--he was excited because I made a tackle or something.  Dad came out of the stands and told him the next hand he puts on a kid will result in him putting his hands on the coach.  The coach said, "I was not mad at him." Dad said, "oh, I know.  If I thought that this conversation would have never gotten started."  The coach never hit any of us again.

what a POS.  But again, none of this is a shock.  Jags signed up for this.  

Oh if only that kicker had just slugged Meyer.  Just one good punch.  Meyer's career would have been over permanently.  Like forever.  Getting your ass handed to you by a kicker !   Oh the shame . . .

This seems like something that could be taken 2 ways.  Like, Meyer was probably doing all this jokingly.  I highly doubt dude just came up outta nowhere and maliciously booted his starting kicker in his plant leg, and then cussed him out.  Don't get me wrong here, im not defending Meyer at all, hes a douche nozzle...just saying it seems awful strange that a head coach, new to the job at this point, would come up and physically assault a player out of the blue, doesnt it?  Sounds like this was part of the full court press by the players to get Meyer canned.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
