NFL Wild Card Weekend -- With an elegant Jag on

Little Collinsworth is the play by play man on that team. I forget the color guy, but he was carrying a flag previously held by Mike Mayock and Doug Flutie, so...

 

Wasn't difficult to understand at all, though maybe that's because I lived in Louisiana for a while. I've heard much thicker accents.

 

I've heard weirder accents in Charleston than that.

 

Young Collinsworth? Say no more, say no more. The last time I watched Notre Dame on NBC, it was Dan Hicks or Tom Hammond, so ...

 

Tom Hammond is your man the next time the Texans own the Saturday afternoon slot.

 

Just watched a couple YouTubes.

Travis Etienne seems like a very charming, happy young man, who sounds like plenty of the young men in my neighborhood.

 

Yeah - I don't know what the big whoop was.

 

Listening to Romo try to tell us that this first game today could be interesting was laughable. His whole reasoning was that the first two games were close. Well, the first two games didn't have Skylar Thompson at QB. I get it, he's trying to hold onto viewers, but it made him sound like a buffoon.

 

Something is a little off when the name used on this board most often through 19 weeks of NFL threads isn't Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen . . . but Al Michaels.

 

I'm over it. Travis is a scholar and a gentleman. And he owns a mansion and a yacht.

 

A company making a heavy investment in NFL advertising would be wise to emulate Dr. Pepper's "Fansville" series of ads. Maybe even set it up so it is somewhat "current" with whatever is going on with the NFL. Frame it around a fantasy league or eliminator pool. Get the people who do the SEC Shorts to do it.

"Dude, the Broncos are going to cook this year with Russell!" "In Trey we Trust!/In Jimmy we Trust!"/In Brock we Trust!" - its been such a screwy season. So much conventional wisdom went out the window.

He has succeeded academically as well, earning All-ACC Academic honors.

“It definitely means a lot,” added #9. “We come here and we’re student-athletes first. Coaches say that how you do anything is how you do everything, so I want to strive to be the best in the classroom and on the field. It goes hand in hand. I believe that if you’re good on the field, you’re good off the field. That degree is going to take me a long way in life, longer than football ever will.”

When Travis Etienne decided he was returning to Clemson for his senior year, one of the reasons he gave for returning was graduating from college.

On Thursday, the ACC’s two-time Player of the Year and its all-time leading rusher, was able to check the box, as he was one of 43 student-athletes to receive his degree from Clemson University at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, S.C.

“This is a very big moment for me. I am forever grateful,” Etienne said in a video courtesy of Clemson University. “It is an opportunity to change my life and my whole lifestyle going forward. I am forever grateful to be a Clemson graduate.”
