Due to a number of factors, I have no doubt the offensive line will be better, even perhaps good. There's really no excuses this season except for adaptation to a new OC (which is legitimate). That said, they would have to be 2002-esque to convince me that Barnett is even an average coach. I...

This is exactly right. The injuries were not appreciably more than all programs have to deal with and he had more than enough time and bodies to demonstrate that he is an effective coach and failed miserably. He's extremely lucky that KF is loyal to a fault. Recruiting is never an exact...

The NBA and MLB both lost me around 10 years ago. It was kind of a gradual fade and I didn't really think about it until recently. In retrospect, I think the impetus was the frequent player movement. It may be "old school" to a degree, but I much prefer to follow a "team" over time and watch it...

Really good year for music. Quite a few of those songs are on my iPhone playlist. Never seen that format on YouTube before, and I noticed a name just above, "Tom W," which made me think it might be a personalized list.

A couple more great examples of 70s melodies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-qGAgezYXc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KzmVb2-ijE

On my iPhone playlist. Another good example of that decade's great melodies. Here's another. Try to avoid not moving to the groove..... :cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmfudW7rbG0

There are a couple of groups that I've come to appreciate more throughout the years, and The Cars is one. I was always a fan, but now appreciate the nuances of how they blend rock with new wave/synth. Very cool stuff. Another would be Hall & Oates. I always enjoyed their stuff but have come to...

I could definitely see that. If he would prefer offense, H-back might be an ideal spot for him, similar to Kyle Juszczyk with the 49ers. That position is coming back in vogue and more and more teams are integrating it. Plus, it fits well with Lester's motion offense concepts that are being...

The article is well-written, and I agree with his premise. I would argue, though, that Tiger Woods is a much better analogy than Jackie Robinson. What this writer, and many others, are missing somewhat is that rookie "hazing" and intimidation is one thing, but cheap shots that seem to come from...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTn6vYpVLN0 A mark of a good tune is one that you wish would keep going. Every time I get to the end of Tush, I'm bummed that it's over.

I owned it as well, and played the hell out of it, along with Overdrive II. Those hard chords are addictive and old-school. Also saw them in concert. For me, it got to the point that I felt a little burned out. Can't listen to Business anymore, but still enjoy some of the other tracks such as...

Little Feat is kind of amazing to watch. Coordinating such a diverse amount of instruments and players is one thing in the studio, but they somehow keep everything tight live too. Pretty impressive. I had a hard time keeping Neil Young off my list. Harvest definitely would be in my top 20...

Yeah, mood is a major driver for me in terms of what I'll listen to as well. Blues is a good example. I definitely need to be in the right mood for country, and even then it's primarily the old stuff like Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline, etc. I can listen to Chris Stapleton pretty much any time, but I...

You cheated. That's 11. :cool: Curious. You say "At the time..." What would you choose now? "Band on the Run" was on my short list too. Great album.

I have a little inside information there (for what it's worth). He told a couple of players at the end of last season that he was going to try killing it in the off-season after kind of coasting a bit last season. He wasn't pleased with how he performed. Not a knock on him at all. He has the...
