awesome blog...picker, have you heard of berry tramel's idea to tip the scale back towards defenses by limiting the time between plays to a 30 second playclock instead of 40 seconds?

personally, with almost everyone running a spread no-huddle, i dont really think it would make that much difference.

Worn out? Yes, yes, he should be...

Let's analyze Nit Nutters last email...just for fun. First of all, never end a sentence with a preposition, Nit. Your second line reads like a D- essay written at Tulsa Tech. And why does it not come as any surprise that you've never heard of Rupert Pupkin? And we won't even try to dissect line eight, which was ill-conceived and ended in the fundamentally awkward 'if not for a couple of you.' Seriously, my man, stop embarrassing yourself. You're a laughing stock.

Picker,

Props on the OSU and Ole Miss picks; not so much on the LSU and tOSU picks. I went opposite you on all four. You win some, you lose some.

I liked Nit's post. It was interesting at least, unlike most of what I read on here. Especially what I read from the Licker. Speaking of whom... why should I pay up on that bet about OU? The season's not over and there is still much to be decided. You should know this. Should, but apparantly don't. Like a great many other things.

Starting a sentence with a conjunction, TBD, may not be directly from the textbook but anyone who's bothered to read anything of merit published in the past 100 years realizes that it's a perfectly accepted convention.

Now, you can get to sports.

So is ending a sentence with a preposition......

But what am I talking about? Or is it, what is that about which I am talking? :-)
