Watching that Randy Jordan presser was worthwhile. I didn’t realize Antonio Gibson used to play QB, that bodes well for holistic thinking when it comes to his various positions and how they work to setup and attack the defense. I’m really excited to see what he can do in this offense, especially because the second thing that was valuable to learn was about the new complexity of RB route concepts. Which switches the route of a given play based on man/zone coverage and leverages of the defense while depending on the qb and rb to be reading the same thing and adjusting accordingly. So basically our rb’s will be running a **** load of choice routes and Dwayne is the kind of guy to get off on having that level of dynamicism to attack a secondary with. There will be some growing pains but I’m starting to better appreciate what they’re trying to put together.

This is the most optimistic post, I've ever seen you make. I hope you're right, not just because this is our team, but because it would be awesome to see a genuinely good man have success in this place again like Joe Gibbs Part 1.

One thing, I'll be super interested to see this year is how much of a polymath AGG truly is and how that will positively affect his learning curve amidst all the other challenges unique to this season.

This Tom Cotton guy must have failed history class. He ever read about the Boston Massacre or the Kent State Shooting?

It's crazy to me that people haven't yet made the deeply fundamental connection between integrity and health. Health both in the individual sense, and in the collective or societal sense. Not only is integrity a continued requirement for the healthy functioning of an individual and society, but in order to advance or further civilize a society, even higher standards of integrity are required. I personally worry more about mental/emotional/physical/spiritual health than whether people believe in God or give a name to what we are all connected to, because it's ****ing obvious how things are supposed to work, the healthier you get and the more your holistic palate harmonizes with the interconnections of reality. And these interconnections were here and working based on these requirements before language, the bible, or humans even existed and they will still hold true in the future if life takes on different forms in different locations of the universe. When I talk about integrity, I am talking about something beyond morality that is so fundamental to the structure of the universe and the structure within us, that it is a requirement of movement and communication in every level of life from the quantum to the quaint.

Not a good look

I'm worried about clashes between these guys and local forces, just as much as I'm worried about things between normal people. Luckily the protestors have been smart about filming things and trying to defend an accurate narrative, which helps them maintain nationwide support. If they keep that support there will be hopefully enough political pressure to keep this from getting worse. Remember these guys are federal agents/DHS which is different from the military, whose guns are just as big as theirs.

Go ahead and try it ****ers, people aren’t gonna stand for paramilitary occupation across the country. Yea there a lot of ****ing sheep in this country but everyday fighters are being activated by your evil and will stand up against you. The backlash of progress to your thuggery is coming for you ****es.

Yup, dude has been laying it down for decades.

I really like S. Charles as well. He’s got great footwork, lateral agility, and a strong anchor. The main thing he needs to work on is hand technique and creating a more active neural connection that marries his hands with his feet better. I was kind of hard on him for his hand placement after reading Bullocks piece in the Athletic, but while he does have a point about it, I wonder if he follows Joe Thomas’ technique of one hand at the opponents pec and the other on the bicep to harness the off-angle leverage and sliding action that naturally happens during a rep. Which makes sense because rarely are you perfectly squared up against an edge defender as they attack off the line. I do wish he had a better punch though and looked to attack with more controlled aggression on run plays. But, I do like the chemistry he has with Moss already and hope that continues for us. The dude definitely has potential.

I really like what I’ve seen from Wyatt Davis so far. His explosion, short area burst, and aggression are all on display in the run game and he sets a strong anchor in the pass game. I didn’t see any real loss in his sets against Clemson. He actually had worse trouble with Michigan state from what I saw and that was only minimal and didn’t lead to much pressure anyways IIRC. I would love to have him on our team. Im kind of meh on Creed Humphrey. I mean he’s good and I want to like him more after all I’ve heard about him and what he does and maybe I’m just missing the nuances of his position, but I see some stuff that gives me pause. I wish he was more of a mauler and worked his hands to stiffen and raise his opponents leverage when anchoring. The dude gives up too many steps before he anchors and is susceptible to inside speed shooting his gap. Which is weird, because he can pull relatively well, but he still is a bit of a plodder. I guess he’s not as fast twitch as I’d like for him to be. My takes are better after ive gotten a larger sample size of IOL under my belt, so take these with a grain of salt.

I feel you and I wasn't meaning to imply that you were. I appreciate the nuance you brought to the subject of case numbers. It just alarms the hell out of me, that this country is so lacking in operational discipline for the common good, that all we can hope for is 70% of the populating getting this for herd immunity or a vaccine in the near future. That leaves people like me and my wife having to be in near total lock-down for who knows how long while this plays out. It's exhausting having your life on the line every day while also dealing with previous issues that are hard enough to survive with as it is.

At least the new law offers this much "Criminal records of simple possession will be sealed, and employers and schools will be banned from asking about prior simple possession convictions." But, your right about background checks. I'm already a felon so it doesn't matter to me as much.

I worry about how the above changes once kids are back in school and flu season comes back around. Then I also worry about the long term debilitating effects having this virus can cause in people and how they will be weaker the next time around if this virus does indeed come back every year. I'm still not clear in my understanding in how well people can fight off getting this virus once they've had it already, hopefully given the relatively low occurrence of mutation we might have some case for optimism? There are so many different variables to consider, that has me worried that people are hoping for things to happen that just won't be the case.

Not yet. As of today everything that is an ounce or lower, even concentrates or "hash oil" is decriminalized and just a $25 fine with no court costs or jail time. They are also reviewing the next step for legalization and have a report on it due to the government on Nov. 30 2020.

In a similar vein to the above, I’ve often said that it’s mostly only good people that worry about being bad people. They are the ones actually trying to hold themselves to a standard and worrying about how their actions measure up. Bad people don’t self reflect like that or they lie to themselves, project, or scapegoat others to protect themselves from the positive disintegration of self accountability.

I’ve heard a lot of great things about Cisko and have him in my top 3 of my list of safety prospects to watch along with Jevon Holland and Ar’Darius Washington. I’m still working through other positions though and haven’t gotten to him yet. Man, Rondale Moore is amazing and I could see Scott Turner wanting him as his version of CMC if we hadn’t already taken Gibson this year. I love his play strength and elite level explosion in and out of his breaks. As far as smallish gadget guys there is a huge gap between him and Tutu Atwell. RM is truly special and so much fun to watch, I just hope he can stay healthy.
