    Anyone rush over a hundred yards in the game?

    Frankly, I needed a list of all the offensive linemen, because, you know, they're the unsung heroes.

    Dammit, that's exactly my point.

    I played 9 seasons of high school and college football, then three more seasons for a Fraternal Order of Police team.

    I was in the paper twice. Both times quoted in a feature and never in a gamer.

    I don't think they are. It doesn't really tell me what happened.

    Yes.

    No doubt. I really miss hearing from guys like you, Kindred, Jones, MacGregor, hell, even Whitlock. And anyone else I might have missed. This used to be a place to learn a thing or two. Now it's run by a bunch of insecure assholes -- many of whom aren't even the business -- pissing all over everything. I didn't think this was well done, but as noted, I think that's more because you were out of your comfort zone and trying too hard. I have enjoyed much of your stuff over the years. This one just missed the mark. It happens.

    If a team runs for a lot of yards, I'm always in favor of reporters talking to the o-line. I did it often when I was covering preps.

    Yeah, but that was liberal guilt. ;)

    Two those names are/were really good on here. One consistently struggled to not turn things into pissing matches and who-the-hell-are-you debates. And one was not, IMO, good for the board at all.
