Our personalities come through plain and simple. Personally, I think I let some of my claws show in my response to you, which, though Tora is Japanese for TIGER, is not typical of me. But desperate times call for desperate measures. Timing is everything. Your post showed its true colors for anyone with eyes and a memory to see.

Maybe, but DJ will obviously get more carries but I think Shivers will get a few more next game too. I mean did Kam even have a carry in the 2nd half? Really? Shivers should get carries as the specialty guy on end arounds and such. He’s not a run it up the middle back - you gotta get him in space where he can hurt the D. His lack of size and strength showed today why he can’t do the in the middle stuff efficiently. Kam can do it a little because of his experience I guess but its clear that right now, D.J. and Joiner are the only guys we have to carry it up the middle with any success. Well, Miller did okay but we know he’s not necessarily the answer. Kam did have a few carries in the 2nd that I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbird 60,512 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 If Shivers had been given the toss that KMart had to break his long run, it would've been a TD. We aren't using Shivers correctly. That said, he's not a sweep only back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that we saw it and then didn’t see it against UF worries me about Gus’ game plan in the big games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is snark all over your initial post plus your reply. You could have been fair and replicated the stereotypical sunshine pumpers' exaggerated comments or interpretation of the truth as well, but I noticed immediately that you didn't. This kind of response makes it impossible for most to enjoy a resounding win, no matter how many "trophies, likes, loves, and ha has" you get. Carry on. P.S. NO ONE HERE "HATES" GUS. Nice try.

The historic portion of the movie "Pearl Harbor" was actually pretty good as well. Just have to overlook the Hollywood stuff thrown in. Also, you see where there's a new version of "Midway" opening soon. ....just not sure if it's going to be historically accurate or Hollywood revisionist history.

Auskip 196 Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 There’s a new Midway movie coming out. When? I’ve watched the old one so many times that my wife says she has it memorized just from the times she’s walked by when I’ve had it on. BTW there is a debate among historians regarding that famous Yamamoto quote. As I understand it the consensus is that he never actually said it although it does accurately capture his opinion regarding fighting the US.
