Thought it was The Postal Service for a second when I first heard it.

Indeed. Their sounds are very similar, and Adam Young (the guy in the video) has even stated that their sounds are similar...

[The Postal Service] released a record in 2003, and that was it. There was really nothing to compare it to until some one else came along and wrote the next chapter. Maybe that's this record. Maybe that's this band.

one of the worst songs ever played on the radio

would rather hear nickleback

:lol:

I'll grant that the type of music that this is doesn't really have a radio station (in this area) where it fits the format well...

Maybe this song hits close to home for some of y'all? The song has been described, by its writer, as "a little song about bugs and not being able to fall asleep at night," though the fireflies in the song's title also serve as an allegory for the lost imagination and wonder in adulthood.

"Fireflies" - Winner of the most overplayed radio song in 2009.

I thought it was catchy also when I first heard it but then when it got to the point where you couldn't turn on the radio without hearing it or go on the interent without some teenager playing their rendition of it and at that point I felt that it needed to be destroyed. Even my 5 year old duaghter would ask for it to be turned off because she said it was a song for babies.

      So... what metrics for production do you believe display these issues/limitations best? Are we only using total passing yards, height, and weight thresholds? If so, then what are those thresholds?

      I mean as far as his size goes it's all over his tape bouncing up and down on his toes in and around the pocket trying to see the field and defenses know this as well as we do but if folks here want to live in never never land and pretend it's not a thing that's their prerogative. Even our head coach has made it a key focal point to get his footwork under control. But it's still something Bryce is going to be tested on early and often no matter how many keystrokes anyone here commits to the narrative it isn't an issue.

      It speaks volumes that when asked to define a clear performance threshold the responses instead fixate on Bryce's size. It reinforces what’s been clear for a while now... that for some, it has never been nor will it ever be about production. Any struggles will always be chalked up to his frame, and any strong play will be downplayed or disqualified via highly mobile goalposts.
