4th and 2 from the 26, up by 2 with 2:27. Bills go for it as they should because you know Mahomes will take them downfield easily.

Allen with an amazing TD weaving through the Chiefs D.

Incredible tank

Generally great. Not traditional, hopefully disruptive. Some definitely deserve a serious review and not a rubber stamp. Importantly the process should be advise and CONSENT. The President should get deference and only if serious conflicts/legal problems/moral problems should you vote against him/her. It shouldn't be policy the Pres gets to pick.

I think the 4 obvious people that need serious reviews are RFKJ, Tulsi, Gaetz and Hegseth.
RFKJ has had some serious anti vax things said against him in the past.He needs to explain.I have heard him interviewed and I am personally comfortable. Forgetting the vax issue, COVID did so much to ruin the previously great reputation of the CDC that CDC, NIH and FDA need complete overhauls. Let them ask all the hard questions, he should pass easily. odds 80-20
Tulsi - More isolationist than many R's we need her balance viewpoint to the neocons. They will fight her but Trump needs her input. Rubio is a bit of a hawk so he can be a counter weight. Let's dispense once and for all of the Russia asset nonsense. She should pass. 80-20
Hegseth. Good resume but unknown. Needs to show the committees some gravitas. 60-40
Gaetz - Don't know much but what I know I don't like. There is no way he gets confirmed without the Senate seeing the report on him. I would prefer he becomes a sacrificial lamb for the others. DoJ/FBI need a wrecking ball but I think, Cruz, Lee or DeSantis would all do that with much less pushback. 35-65. IMO AG IS THE MOST IMPORTANT POSITION OF ALL TO CLEAN HOUSE AT DOJ AND FBI. I wish I liked his pick.
The rest are super strong My favs are Radcliff, Burgum, and Jay Buttacharia [sp] if he gets NIH.

After the SCOTUS ruled a POTUS has almost total immunity for official decisions SC Smith obtained a new gj indictment against 'Candidate Trump'. This will remove the actions from being official to private and as such not be immune from prosecution. The Trump legal team and Don-Old himself are quite upset about this.
The trump legal folks have 30 days to respond to the newly charged criminal acts.

Stick with it long enough to hear him describe a sound as "ape mixed with fake owl."

I laughed.

This team is built for a postseason run!

Now, does that mean we’ll go on to win the championship, highly unlikely!

However, with that being said, with Georgia losing today to Ole Miss anything is possible, especially, in a 12 team playoff.

Ultimately, I would like our chances against just about anyone in a home playoff game on December 20th - 21st

Defense is dominant, running game is plenty good enough, Tyler Warren is a phenomenal weapon to have in December at Beaver stadium.

Very excited going forward from here!

Remember his dissertation on how there were only good and bad teams.... and home-field and travel were irrelevant?

We are not going to go far in the playoffs with Drew REFUSING to throw downfield.

Was at game last week and seen WRs/TEs wide open 4 times where he checked down or scrambled, instead of throwing to them wide open. Today we saw same thing. People need to stop thinking its just the WRs not getting open because that is not always the case.

Check out replay on the deep TD to Wallace. On that play Drew initially looked to his left and over the middle. Warren was WIDE OPEN deep no defender within 10-15 yds. Drew looked at him and didn't throw. Then when Wallace was wide open Drew waited and waited and you could see his reluctance when he FINALLY threw deep to Wallace on the TD. He got the TD but its an example of first having Warren wide open on his first read but not pulling the trigger.

The reason Drew has hardly any Ints and a 70% completion rate is because he throws short easy passes and hardly anything downfield.

I dont care if we beat a cream puff like Washington or Purdue by 100 pts. When Drew refuses to throw downfield vs playoff teams is where it will hurt us. We cannot dink and dunk with a QB refusing to throw downfield, unless he gets clearance from the State Dept of Defense and expect to win many playoff games.

On the flip side did you see how quick Beau threw deep to #12 Ivey, on the dropped pass? With Beau there was NO hesitation. As soon as he saw Ivey open deep he threw to him.

And NO I am NOT saying Beau should play over Drew. It's just an example of one QB that doesnt hesitate when he has man open deep to where Drew doesn't throw.

Cue the Kazoos. The stadium is a sea of empty yellow seats. Such a pathetic fair weather fan base. Two weeks ago they were CFP bound.

MVP!

Remind you of anyone in specific?

Last year, Boston University Law School offered therapy after three Supreme Court decisions that went against liberal orthodoxy. Would you want a lawyer who needed therapy when he lost? (“Your honor, can we have a brief recess so I can process my emotions?”)

A Yale University psychiatrist is urging supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris not to attend holiday gatherings with family members who voted for Mr. Trump and to tell them why they’re being shunned. “I think you should very much be entitled to do so, and I think it may be essential to your mental health,” said Dr. Amanda Calhoun — Sigmund Freud meets Cruella de Vil.

Imagine the anguish caused by sharing cranberry sauce with relatives who disagree with you.

Die-hard feminists are vowing to refrain from sex while Mr. Trump is in office. This elicited an audible sigh of relief in some quarters.

LOL......

There’s almost nothing worse than getting dumped. You’ve done everything right. You had all the money in the world — a billion dollars! You had all the celebrities — Harrison Ford, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Julia Roberts, George Clooney, Meryl Streep and Barbra Streisand! Who could ask for anything more? Well, it turns out 76 million people.

This wasn’t just a “don’t call me, I’ll call you” or “we can still be friends” or “maybe someday in the future we could…” No, this was a “get lost, lose my number, forget you ever knew me” kind of break-up. The Democrats aren’t handling it well, to put it mildly.

They’re shaving their heads. They’re uninviting family members to Thanksgiving. They’re obsessing over everything Trump is doing and saying, refusing to go quietly. In other words, they’re turning into Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction.

It isn’t enough to blame the “woke” and the crazies for the collapse of the empire. It goes much deeper than that. Yes, they’ve lost their minds, and Americans are fleeing faster than rats off a sinking ship, but the truth is the Democrats orchestrated their own demise. Even those who think they get it, don’t really.

Bill Maher, for instance, is given pats on the back for kind of, sort of getting it but if you listen really close, you’ll hear the tell-tale TDS worming its way in. Trump is crazy, his voters are dumb.

Feel free to ask any questions for Happy Valley Insider’s staff members post your questions about the team, recruiting, or anything else in this thread below.

We will check in on the thread all day long to answer whatever questions you have!

any word on our recruits play from this past weekend?

Playing home against Baltimore in what is always an intense game. Just going to half time and already been 5-6 on field scrums and a couple penalties called.

Mods: Can you leave this in the regular section until Sunday or Monday, then pin it? I figure that will bump it to the top of the regular threads a bunch during the early days, then make it easier to find after most everyone has signed on. Thanks!

Long-time Know Your Penn State Wrestlers (KYPSW) fans, and newbies, alike, it's time, once again for the longest running game in wrestling message board history. Read on to see how to play the season-long game.

The contest has three components: the dual season, B1G and NCAAs, with a corresponding increase in points. There is a podium for each of the individual parts, and then one Grand Champion walks away with the bragging rights that come along with winning a contest that takes place on an obscure sports message board. That, plus amazing prizes, which are still in the mail from all previous years. I know we have former winners who still go to the mailbox every day, anticipating their just rewards. I still don’t understand how the post office continues to lose those year after year.

Due to the long season, about 65 people usually start out in the first dual, but by the end, only 35, or so, have actually competed in all of the duals. Hopefully, you’ve all been working on your conditioning, and are ready to get after it.

Now, without further ado...

Here are the rules for the KYPSW Dual Season portion.

· Prior to each dual meet (usually by Wed night), I (or one of my able assistants) will post the expected PSU lineup*.

· Prior to the start of a dual, each participant in our competition posts his/her predicted winner and type of victory (dec, major, tech, or fall) for each match in the dual. Injury defaults or DQs count as falls. For each match prediction, you get 2 points for calling the correct winner, plus 1 bonus point for calling the correct type of victory. No points are awarded unless you call the correct winner.

· Predictions for each event must be posted in the KYPSW thread on whichever board you choose (and posted prior to the start of the event) to count for point-scoring. Please only post predictions on one board, PARTICULARLY if you have different names on each board.

· When the posted lineups suggest multiple possible matchups in a weight class and a member posts picks for only a subset of those possible matchups, no points will be awarded to said member for the weight class if the pick fails to include the matchup that ultimately takes place.

· When a PSU opponent forfeits a weight-class during a Dual, every FOS participant in that event will be awarded full point-value for the match (2 pts) and bonus (1 pt) [total = 3 pts]. This applies only to Forfeits where the opponent does not step onto the mat -- Injury Defaults and Disqualifications are not considered Forfeits (they will be counted as Falls, as noted in original text above).

· I will compile and score results, posting weekly updates.

· Highest scorer at season's end** is awarded bragging rights for being the FOS/BWI/ON3 Dual Season Champion.

* The lineup will not always be certain; when things look iffy, I will try to post multiple wrestlers at a given weight class, and participants should post their predictions for each wrestler. Generally, I will try to base the lineup on what is presented in the "Match Notes" published by PSU several days prior to the event.
** Tiebreaker Criteria -- Criterion 1: most correct picks; Criterion 2: most correct win types; Criterion 3: most FOS OR HVI OR whatever other board I run the contest on.

Hired a guy to do a job for $4M.

In year 1 they double that salary and extend him to 8 years.


I swear I just saw this story at MSU.

Not judging whether Cignetti will be successful, but this won't keep him if he wants to leave.

Who is going to win?
