    Well, according to the article on the front page, it seems that our problems are because we don't have a good scout team. Hmmm... The reason the scout team isn't any good is because they're out looking for those pesky redskins.

    Just read the article. It is reason enough to fire Napier right now.

    The team on the field isn't any good. So, why would we ever expect the scout team to be?

    Don't let this guy on the plane tomorrow -- this is embarrassing

    Exactly.

    It just occurred to him that he needs to prepare the team for dual threat quarterbacks?

    I think the guy just has his routine and doesn't adjust it......at all. I wouldn't be surprised if later we learn he just had his scout team run the same plays our offense and defense runs. All in the effort to improve execution. Might explain why the players always look absolutely confused.

    Funny you guys should comment on my loafers.

    I just lost my Mom. Tuesday was the funeral. Amazing lady and the best Mom ever! Lived to 101.5! WWII Navy vet, too.

    At the service the pastor was asking those in attendance stuff they remember that Mom said. The caregiver said a few things...amongst them "I always made sure my sons had their teeth cared for and they had good shoes!"

    The Greatest Generation! :)

    Thanks for telling us. I know it's tough. I've been there as have many of us. I'm sorry Bazza.

    Edit: Wow! She was over 100!

    So sorry for your loss. My mom is 88 and I'm her caregiver. It will be tough when she's gone.

    No. It is relative to the scout team.

    Honestly, the meandering beating around the bush way he talks has annoyed me since day 1. His football team plays like he talks.
