  34. Tebow got a shot from Urban Meyer because of their history together. My past with Shannon Sharpe is pretty negative, because he was the instigator of the Mile-High Meltdown, in my humble opinion. The best way to defend him was to get in his way at the line of scrimmage and get your hands on him. Wayne Simmons wasn't good in coverage, but he was a decent blocker, and a few artful holds, here and there, at cost of one or two 5-yard D-holding penalties, and Sharpe was frustrated as hell, because he wasn't getting off the line the way he wanted. IMO, Sharpe started losing control, got rolled up on, accidentally, and he went after a KC O-Lineman from behind after the whistle. That set Derrick Thomas off. DT58 got ejected in shame, and Sharpe got his way by acting the most offended. He's a pretty smart guy and was a pretty good player. I'd still put a LB over him, with a mind to rush the passer THROUGH the TE. Simmons could knock Sharpe over backwards on his way to the QB/RB and Sharpe threw a fit, imo. I really wish my GamePass went back farther than '09, and included all the NFL games. Maybe I just had the red sunglasses on. They did a masterful job in the '70s through (I'd guess) the '90s, when the close-up of the QB's face and talk about his heart-warming/wrenching back-story and trivia, rather than a wide-angle showing who's entering and leaving the field. The better t.v. announcers would rattle off who was entering and leaving the field, too, because that's from the radio tradition, painting the picture with words. It goes right with the wide-angle of the field between plays, which t.v. networks should go back to doing. If I can see everybody comin' 'n' goin' between plays, I'll know everybody on the field. That makes the game a lot more interesting and understandable at the same time. The way they You used to be able to do that. The camera crews would also look for the most beautiful women in the crowd, and somehow squeeze that in, along with a more informative realtime broadcast. Bringing more equity and inclusion the right way would be to give the ladies some beefcake "Oh, look! Henry Cavill is up in the CBS booth! Hey Henry! I hear you're a big Baltimore fan!" Where was I? I digress... Sharpe's very smart. He understands the mass psychology and the crowd dynamic to a 'T.' He knows exactly how to argue to appeal to a pretty large number of people, and be hard to criticize by those to whom he doesn't appeal. When people raise their voices, it's not because they're revved up, but because they want YOU to get revved up, or at least stay out of your way. Put another way, bluster sets off my radar. Doesn't matter if I agree with somebody. I'd much rather hear Gothix lay it down calmly, plainly, and without artifice or affectation. There's some good writing and speaking out there, right now. I love it, but I'm just expecting it to be throttled on this and other Big-Tech platforms.

  41.  @joesmith5159  They're just following "best practices" as defined by the bureaucrats in colleges and universities, where 99% of football players, coaches and managers are trained. All the woke stuff is downstream of those colleges and universities, which is not surprising. The biggest virtue-signalers are always the slave-owners, and the NCAA basically operates a farm system for the NFL, for pennies on the dollar of what they'd have to pay those young men to play semi-pro on anything CLOSE to the scale on which NCAA Division I and II football operates. Those young men (to me, they're kids, because I'm old as dirt) should be pulling down high-5- and 6-figure salaries AND have academic scholarships that give them TIME to finish school, the RIGHT way, rather than half-ass it, to pump them out on a 4-year schedule while they're representing the school on the playing field. They don't even give those kids the rights to their own image! That's owned by the NCAA. All the money that's in college football, those kids oughta be gettin' paid WAY more than they are. They're almost ALL really good kids, but speaking as a math professor, most of them put in or are distracted by the sport and associated activities for FAR more than the 20 hours a week they're supposedly restricted to, and my poor math offerings were always WAY down their list of priorities. I didn't feel they had the time or the motivation to excel in the math. They were mostly wrapped up in taking their best shot at the NFL, which meant a lot of extra time in the weight room, out running, doing drills, etc. Even though they all know that only one or two percent of them will ever make it in the NFL, over half of them think they've got a shot and they'd be fools not to give it their all. I never got mad at them for half-assing their math work. I kind of felt sorry for them that they were wasting their time on math, when they were focused on another goal and I was sucking time away from those goals. Early on, I decided they should be paid semi-pro rates, which is basically a good job for the rest of us at that age, and after their 4 years of eligibility are up, they ought to have the option of another 4 years of school, KNOWING they didn't get drafted, and without the demands of playing for the school. Sorry to go off on a tangent, but I'm just not surprised to see this kind of virtue-signaling racism backfire, and I see its roots in the education system that discriminates against Asians all the time. And it made me think about how those universities shamelessly exploit young athletes for huge profits, but relatively small compensation for the players, compared to the huge amounts of money the schools rake in. And not all of that money that's raked-in is easy to see. Alumni donations are very much tied to the major college sports. You can't just look at the ticket and t.v. revenues. There're millions of dollars being pumped into those schools by alumni who want to cheer for a winning team from their box seats. The COACHES in college make as much as NFL coaches. But the players take the same risks for a half-hearted education, provided on-the-cheap by the institution, like McDonald's paying you in hamburgers.
