Watching Darnold and Trace go at it (and in particular, watching the highlights), this vignette from Rocky 3 popped into my head.

To wit.... you fight great, but i'm a great fighter...



and that said... everybody go back to about the 8:45 mark of the 3rd qtr. It's 3rd and 10 and the trojans break off a perfect screen pass for a first down and the drive continues on to a TD.

Now take a good look at what happens. Herbie is all orgasmic about how they block #40... 'if they can block him they can make it work... and they do.'

Well yeah... if "blocking" him in the back is blocking. It's ain't. Funny how ol herbie-doodle just sidestepped that one. Have a look for yourselves, because if the right call is made it's 3rd and 20 and i'm betyting w're off the field and still up 2 scores.

And for gosh sakes, how has usc re-captured momentum when it's 42-35 and we've scored 6 straight times? Geez... take this lousy puke and send him back to the land of 000000000!
