Who ya got?

After all the talk during the week about Smith getting in Jimmy's face on the sidelines last Sunday, I thought it'd be interesting to get people's opinions on who'd actually win in that fight.

Personally, my money is on Clausen. He's a tough bastard.

I read an article this morning and they mentioned that Jimmy's physique looked like he was more familiar with twinkies than he was with weight lifting and exercise. So my money would be on Smith who is still pound for pound one of the toughest guys in football. At least in his mind. Funny thing is that I doubt he would be the one to start it. He is over that I think.

Where's that article? All I've read is how he's a machine in the gym.

Oh and Clausen gets nailed by D-linemen and pops back up. I think he could go toe to toe with Smith.

He did get his bell rung hard last game and shook it off. I felt bad for him because his eyes were watering. Hopefully he wont make that mistake again. Safety blitz I think.

Is this really a thread? Smitty would OWN Clausen, but it would never come to that. At the end of the day Smitty is a competitor and I think that Jimmy is too. So I feel that Jimmy couldn't even get mad at Smitty because they both want to win and all Steve was doing was expressing his thoughts on "winning"

I either read it here somewhere or through the observer. They are the only ones I read today. Anyway, someone who has been in the locker room and saw what he looked like. Doesn't mean he isn't tough. Anyone who plays pro football is tough. On the other hand, even marshmellows bounce back when you squish them. Maybe someone else read it too. I'll see if I can find it.

Edit- Found the link

Walk into the locker room Wednesday, and you would not pick Clausen as a leader. He's not a big guy. He does not come across as a fierce guy. His body implies that he spends more time with Little Debbie products than with large, small or intermediate weights.

By the title I thought that this was going to be about attitude, so that's what I will address. Smith needs to basically man up and lead by example. He needs to teach instead of preach. Clausen is acting more professional and politically correct about a situation that should have never came up. Every time that I want to believe that Smitty is finally getting it, he does something that bespeaks a lack of maturity and understanding of the dynamics of the development of a rookie QB. Yes, I know that he is as tough a competitor as there has ever been in he league, but every tough competitor doesn't act like an asshole, so basically Smitty needs to channel his frustration towards the guys who actually deserve it, and in a constructive (and private) manner.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
