Kirk one of the best?

Y’all can go ahead and kiss the notion of getting Watson goodbye. Can’t imagine what his price tag is going to be after this deal.

That’s steep as hell. Do we think this will influence Watson’s trading price? I assume he will have to be worth much more.

Agreed

People give Mitch a hard time but he would be a definite upgrade over Teddy and people underestimate what he can do with his legs.

Not to mention his head is on a little straighter than the aforementioned.

How did those go?

Speaking to a group of guys you work with and are comfortable with is completely different than addressing a bunch of random people and it being broadcasted for the world to see. The dude obviously isn’t eloquent but that doesn’t mean he’s going to suck as a coach.

Some of y’all have never taken public speaking at the university level but wanna roast this dude. With that said, leaders don’t need to be great public speakers.

Watson: “Cowabunga it is...”

I’m in the same camp. Would rather not give up everything. Our luck and he’d get injured early in the season and never get back to full strength for his career.

That’s fair

Draft talk is a cornucopia of rumors, trade talks, prospects. This is the same BS we’ve been hearing and posting about for grossly 2 weeks now and the needle hasn’t really moved.

Weren’t there reports of him being interested in going to NY or was that just speculation? Thought I saw something about him mentioning them in a comment not long ago.

I’m ready for this storyline to be over with one way or another.

The douchiest of douches

65 is the new 45

Because based on skin color you’re automatically categorized into either “privileged” or “oppressed.” That’s what I’ve been told anyway.

The data has its place but it’s relationship with relevance is fading. We can’t undo the past simply by diversifying based on color. If everyone really wanted equality they would have no problem with my initial comment.

I personally think generalizing that history affects everyone dependent solely on the color of their skin is the real racism but you do you. I have a lot of successful people in my circle and they consist of a spectrum of colors, personalities, and backgrounds. Success is more possible than ever (at least pre-Covid) in the U.S.

Once again, who’s offended? Any data derived from this discussion has roots that extend decades. I see the point but it’s not enough to generalize entire populations to fit into the tiny narrative that life isn’t fair because of the color of your skin in this country in the year 2021. As other posters have mentioned, travel outside the country and you’ll realize how wonderful we all have it here. Stop drinking the media kool-aid.

My definition aligns with the classic definition of privilege in that it is not bound by the color of your skin. Compared to my mother who grew up in the projects I grew up privileged. Compared to me a lot of my Caucasian friends grew up privileged. Not because they are white but because of the opportunities afforded them based on their head start. But at the end of the day they had to make the decision to not fug up their head start just like my mother had to make the decision to join the military and better herself otherwise fall in line with the family history of poverty and self-loathing.

Not everyone starts on an even playing field. That really sucks. But everyone is afforded the same opportunities. Some will have to pay a higher expense or work much harder for it but the opportunities are there nonetheless.

Everyone should have equal opportunity to do whatever the hell they want to do. It’s a great thing that in the year 2021 Americans can do just that.

The only thing you’ve done here is take comments out of context to fit your agenda.
