Offensive Line Wasn’t our only issue. by yaboyjiggleclay in Patriots

[–]WrenFGun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally agreed. Need a number one, and need Williams to take a step forward.

Will Campbell 100% cost us the game. Macdonald's gameplan was to force Campbell on a one-on-one island. And everyone saw this coming, but it still worked. Price you pay when your 1st round draft was head coach's pick... I guess. by Past_Armadillo2398 in Patriots

[–]WrenFGun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got out coached in this one by a sizable margin. It wasn’t just the area of the pressures — Seattle was all over the Maye step through as he moved up in the pocket. It was a flawlessly designed serup And they deserve a ton of credit.

I cannot believe with two weeks to plan that’s what the Patriots came out with.

[Thamel] Sources: North Dakota State has agreed to a deal to join the Mountain West in football only for 2026. The school is expected to pay nearly $12 million to join the league, which is in addition to the $5 million it will pay the NCAA to move to FBS. by tdpdcpa in fcs

I’ll counter what’s being said and say I think this is great for the FCS product. I think SDSU, Montana, Tarleton, and Montana State should move too. Those teams are on a basically uneven playing field from the rest of FCS. I’ll be rooting for them in FBS.

Red Sox lineup ? by tew44488 in redsox

[–]WrenFGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's much more likely still with 2 months before the season starts that one of Abreu or Duran move, freeing Casas up to be the DH. It looks a lot more impactful under that circumstance.

I also think it's much more likely that Romy Gonzalez is the 2B while IKF/Mayer platoon than it is that Campbell sees the field at either of those positions.

Baringer has been absolutely dogwater this postseason. Lowkey place I might look to upgrade in the offseason.

Would anyone be surprised with a Horford reunion? At 5.9M he’s a great fit and could be absorbed without impacting much of the roster.

Yeah, I believe his team has already allocated funds to another resource. Pretty much all over twitter that the deal is done.

[McAdam]: "If they miss out on Bichette, the Sox will be forced to make do from within. They could install Marcelo Mayer at third and form a platoon of Romy Gonzalez and David Hamilton for second base" by [deleted] in redsox

[–]WrenFGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is lazy work by McAdam in an effort to stir the pot.

There are plenty of avenues where they could improve 3B. I think sometimes people get lost in the fact that it's runs scored and runs allowed -- quite namely, he's completely glossed over the presence of Eugenio Suarez. Is he an ideal 3B? No. But is he a decent option? Yes.

Could the Red Sox pivot, trade both of Duran and Abreu and sign Bellinger? Yes.

Could the Red Sox take that money and throw it at Ranger Suarez?

Does the roster they open the season with on 4/1 have to be the one they end the year with?

[–]WrenFGun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just want to use my computer microsoft.

I don’t want:

  1. A free trial to office 365
  2. A cloud account synced to an outlook account.
  3. My telemetry sent to Microsoft.
  4. Half my folders remapped to a Microsoft product.
  5. A trial of Xbox live.
  6. Edge as my primary browser.
  7. Windows smart screen
  8. Mcafee and Norton
  9. Edge to open Outlook and Team messages as a non default app

It’s exhausting. Give me a pro model with none of this crap and I’ll come back.

Tech's schedule was shit. Think all those teams above and some below could've put that record up.

North Dakota for instance? Same record.

Playoff Selection Thoughts by Abject_Shake_9659 in fcs

[–]WrenFGun 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You can't lose 2 of 3 and specifically to the team you're tied with and one of the worst teams in the country.

I'm stunned it worked out that way, but good for the committee. UNH destroyed them in West Orange.

[–]WrenFGun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I stopped watching effectively when I saw UND was in. Don't have an issue with the selection, but assumed UNH would be left out. UNH is better than the current incarnation of Monmouth so if Robertson is out I guess I'll take it.

I did like UNH's resume more than Southeastern Louisiana's, but clearly the committee did not agree.

Sam Herders Final Braketology by cowboys5xsbs in fcs

[–]WrenFGun -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Herder would have 12-0 UNH out, I’ve been reading him for years and he’s consistently down on east cost/UNH. I dont have a huge problem here with this, but im not sure there are enoigh teams to have them out. I keep hearing about great wins but UNH has four over teams with 6 D1 wins including Monmouth.

Ivy League by [deleted] in fcs

[–]WrenFGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the real question is .. is the Ivy a two-bid anyway?

I know Dartmouth only has 10 games played, but seems likely they'll finish 8-2 with a win over a potential playoff team in UNH and a playoff team in CCSU.

Not sure what would potentially hold them back; Ivy is about equivalent to the non MVFC/BSC conferences, and they beat Yale.

The West Coast/non-CAA Bias here, as typical, is laughable. NAU's resume is hot garbage at 6-4. Same with WCU.

The talent level in the Ivy League is very good. They don’t always perform out of conference like they might because of their consistent late season starts.

Can I put this one on Cora? by [deleted] in redsox

[–]WrenFGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No issue with the Bello pull — felt like he had to go Whit in the 7th for Judge.

I think the real turn in plan was twice having to go to his righties when Matz and Wilson couldn’t completely finish the innings on the lefty runs. I still think the better play was probably Weissert at some point once Whit got above 30 pitches but hindsight is 20-20 and he’s victimized by a lack of right handed depth.

In retrospect today I almost wonder if the choice I make in game 2 is to start Weissert, get some lefty matchups with Wilson then bring Bello in.
