Gah! Don't even get me started!

Exactly. My gut reaction to that pic is anger at why that kid was sent over there to get blown apart in the first place.To suggest that one can't criticize their country and still advocate for those who volunteered to defend it, it just makes no sense to me.

At some point, is someone in the FO accountable?

Not to mention sentencing way out of line for crimes related to possessing crack v. powder cocaine.

Some people believe that.

Yeah, but then another guy pointed out that electing a black president erased all that. So we good?

Meh. That's the downside of freedoms, many will choose to do douchey things with them. Gotta take the good with the bad.

Theismann's announcing skills don't have a leg to stand on. Oh snap!

It really is terrible. Like the league is saying "Look how much we care about safety now! We're willing to completely ruin the product on the field!"

I like how the stadium was painted black and they kept his name on it for a year+. Felt like a perfect period of mourning. I'm not going to pout about it, but I'm still really surprised there's been no talk of honoring Ralph in perpetuity with his initials on the uniform, like the Bears and George Halas.

Jack Nicklaus' grandson and a guy named Mulligan? My god, it's the best marketing since Wang-Levitre-Wood.

Yeah, we started this game with our second D and they looked solid. I'm ok with it.

Yeah, but he'll be kept around so the FO can be accountable for their tee times at Augusta.

Lol, the local ABC announcer just referred to our "Defensive Blacks." I love the preseason.

Would you say he is... tarnished?

When will the training staff be held accountable?

Well, that was some horse puckey.

D line jumped. Thanks, unaccountable FO!

Tyrod threw over the middle? Phew. Clearly someone finally held the FO accountable.

Two sacks? When will the FO be held accountable?

Sure, but they're twins. It's part of their schtick. Plus, they're funny.

Is this his first broadcasting gig? If so, he just needs time to find his voice. Everybody does. No guarantee they find it, though. I spent many years in radio, three of those in a major east coast market. The main problems I have with Scope and the Bullfrog are: A. Their voices are too similar. Bad idea to team up two people that sound alike. But thats not their fault, that's on the Program Director. Maybe they have a long history together? I don't sense a great deal of chemistry between them though. B. Their disdain for the audience. Treating your listeners with contempt CAN work, but the trick is, you have to be funny, you have to be quick, witty. Those guys are not. I enjoy the show much more when Scoop is out and the Bull guy hosts by himself.

Jauronimo, you are a national treasure, my friend.

One way or another, I envision this thread being brought back to life sometime in December.

What? That's a quote from Animal House.
