Been really wantin an Olsen jersey since he signed, little bro is a Bears fan and I loved it when we traded for him. So moneys been tight for a while and I realized I needed to wait to get my jersey, so I stressed that as the only gift I wanted this year for Christmas. When my wife told me she tried to go in with her Mom on a gift for me, I knew I was gettin the jersey when my MiL said shed get it by herself. So here we are, Christmas Eve and we're opening presents. My 1 gift gets handed to me, a big rattling box. I know a jersey doesnt sound like that but Im still hopeful. Open the box and there are some grilling tools, awesome.. Then theres another box too. Fug yes!! So I am maskin my excitement and open the little box. Take teh top off, theres black jersey material, the blue ribbing, YEA MAN! But that isnt the number 88, what the...? So I pull the jersey out and hold it up. In my hands is a brand new #2.. how teh fug do you mix up Olsen for Clausen?!?@*%#€¥?? Needless to say I cannot mask my disappointment... They can see right through my "No, I love it.." I dont even know how to cleanly tie up this post... :facepalm: :jc:

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.

      Canes vs Panthers 7pm

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.

      QB School - Bryce Young vs Bucs

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
