Good read.  I love stuff like this.  The fine details most fans don't understand or care about.

This is solid stuff, most fans cannot or do not appreciate these details.  Thanks for sharing Mr. Igo!

I opened this up expecting some kind of sexual practice on someone's derriere.

Am I the only one concerned with us going into this game with four DTs?  I was a little puzzled at the decision to let Kyle Love go. I think he is a pretty good rotational player and I'm thinking we may need a little deeper rotation in Denver due to the altitude and Butlers inexperience.

I'm not overly concerned.  Ends can slide inside situationally.

Inside the Pylon is a nice site.  I've barely begun to explore their glossary, but it's definitely a great way to learn more about football.  Particularly helpful for us gals who never played!

Butler's ability trumps Love's experience.

Make no mistake about it, the staff loves Butler, and want him on the field as often as possible.

Readers digest worthy indeed

Some of us guys have never played either. I was way too thin to play football. Now a days? A little less so. :)

Thanks for sharing that! I've seen us do this a lot and we've got the best guys in the league for making this work. Glad to learn the ins and outs of it a bit more.

Too thin?  I was playing varsity ball at 150 lbs. as a freshman...

I weighed 150 too. But my school went undefeated at home for something like 20 years. There was no way I was gonna make that squad. Besides, I played Lacrosse and Basketball with a little baseball thrown in. My being underweight in those sports didn't mean as much.

Looking back though, I wish I would've played as a little kid. My older brother didn't either. Oh well.

EDIT: I also wasn't a fast 150 lbs. :)
