    Woodworkers Thread

    Barely qualifies for this thread, but I have this old gutted breadbox radio made by Globe Electric. I could just throw it away but it's still in pretty good shape and kind of a cool piece so I thought I might take a stab at cleaning it up and using it as a box for winter gear - gloves, hats...

    College Football Season Death Pool

    C'mon NCAA, just wait a couple more days and dump the bad news on Friday afternoon.

    NFL: 2020 NFL Off-season Thread

    Dolpin WRs Albert Wilson and Allen Hurns have both opted out. Buffalo Bills All Pro cornerback Tre'Davious White is reportedly considering opting out. That would be a huge loss for Buffalo. Reports are that the deadline to opt out is tomorrow afternoon.

    RECRUITING: Cyclones contact Tamin Lipsey on the first official day of 2022 recruiting

    That's pretty much where I landed, too. If they were in the same class maybe it'd be different but a lot can change in a year, and even if Hunter is still there in '22 you're going to be challenged for your spot every season at that level of competition. I take it as a positive, especially if...

    RECRUITING: Cyclones contact Tamin Lipsey on the first official day of 2022 recruiting

    Does Tyrese Hunter's commitment today impact Lipsey's recruitment at all? I guess if Hunter is as good as advertised he could very well be a one and done and long gone by the time the 2022 season rolls around, but I was just curious what everyone is thinking.

    NFL: 2020 NFL Off-season Thread

    I think it speaks to exactly why it's going to be so difficult to pull off football without mass outbreaks. You can't really expect these guys to wear a mask during most of their drills where they're going to be in close contact. But that's going to make them more susceptible. The lengths...

    Ouch, Coach Patterson ...

    Congratulations. I've never been quite so tempted to pony up for the cash for access to the Dumb button.

    XFL

    Weird color scheme for South Beach, though. That's a midwest or rust belt look if I've ever seen one.

    Ouch, Coach Patterson ...

    I don't think he was either, but that doesn't change the fact that it's a racially charged word. Whatever the intent or context, it's going to cause a strong reaction and there were better ways for him to communicate that the use of the word isn't tolerated at TCU.

    Sure, holding Patterson responsible for using a word that he shouldn't (regardless of context) doesn't absolve the player from misrepresenting what happened. There's no hero in this story - both guys were in the wrong to some degree.

    The right way to make sure it's understood that the n word is not acceptable at TCU is to say the n word? Nah, this was a lapse in judgement on Patterson's part even if he was goaded into it.

    Ouch, Coach Patterson ...

    It's an racially charged word and it's asking for trouble no matter what context you're using it. How hard would it have been for him to make his point without saying the actual word? And you may not have a problem with him using it to make his point, but someone else (say, a twenty year old...

    I think the takeaway is that regardless of context, just don't say the word. Ever. It's not a real well-hidden landmine, so just step right over it and save yourself the consequences.

    Ouch, Coach Patterson ...

    I think the problem is that he actually dropped the N bomb (allegedly). Even if he's using it within the context of "don't say this word" it's still just a bad look for a middle aged white guy in charge of a program that is mostly made up of young black men to throw it around. Gotta find a...

    Ouch, Coach Patterson ...

    Yeah, if that's how it went down I'm a little surprised that he thought it was ok to say the word regardless of the context. The n word should just be off limits, and if he used it then he's earned whatever consequences that follow, if there are any. edit: initially I said the he deserves to...
