LB Arvell Reese (National Champion)

I will counter by saying that Arvell is so much better instinctively than Browning ever was at OSU. He had trouble reading and reacting and making tackles pretty much up until his senior year. He definitely has improved in the NFL though.

Yep, Browning would have been best served by playing on the edge almost exclusively. Arvell can do it all. His instincts are unreal, as natural of a linebacker as I've ever seen

Is This The Best OSU Team Ever?

Nah 2019 is still my gold standard. At this point 2019 shut out a Cincy team that won 10 games and finished in the Top 20, beat a 10 win Indiana team by 40 in their own building, destroyed one of the better Wisconsin teams in recent memory by 31, and was up 21-0 on a Top 10 Penn State team before the usual Pedster weirdness kicked in and made the game game closer than it should've been. Outside of bad luck and injuries, 2019 didn't have too many weaknesses. Fields wasn't Sayin but he'd still light your ass up if you let him and the run game was light years better. 2019's defense was arguably as dominant as 2025 against better competition overall.

If 2025 goes on a dominant run from SCUM to the NC though, I'd be willing to put them at the top.

Ahem, that's the "war of Northern Aggression" to you.

Holy shit. Just closed on a place in North Carolina this week. Was down at the house to prep for move in and met the neighbors. It’s very clear that the War of Northern Aggression is not over.

I was asked who my ‘driver’ is and I guess that TaylorMade is not an acceptable answer.

Sam Hornish, a NWO boy, was barely acceptable and that’s only because he lives / lived in my home town.

You should have seen the looks I got when I said I follow GT3 and F1…

MLB General Discussion (Official Thread)

Think about the depth of your talent when you have a Wil Smith catching and is about the ~4/5th weapon on your team.

It's this scenario we just saw. One superstar has a terrible series (Betts) one is getting older and was so/so (Freeman) but still won a game for you so some of these other "role players" have their moment to step up. When Wil Smith is sort of your answer to a "role player" you are so damn good you win back to back World Series.

I don't like it for the Reds but I sure as hell respect what they have built. Making it even worse, other than Max Muncy, none of them really piss me off. Most are likeable guys. Freddy Freeman is a HOF guy as well as player. Pure class and grace.

I wish I could hate them more.

Way back around the time Ishiro appeared, I remember reading that small market teams like the Reds can't afford to scout far-off lands like Asia for new talent. So, as we all know, the financial discrepancy goes beyond the huge contracts. Of course the Dodgers, not the Reds, add the best Japanese pitchers to their rotation and lock them in with obscene sums of money.

And when a small or mid franchise does get a superstar like Ohtani, they usually don't get better by letting him go to the dodgers, phils, yankees or mets. I don't know the details of Ohtani leaving the Angels, but they should be one of the best teams 2 or 3 years out from that. Like Dallas trading Herschel Walker. But they're still one of the worst. :shrug:

I remember a couple of interviews of the family at the time and they were very vocal about not wanting to sue the school/church so I have never seen an NDA where a pissed off participant actually goes out of their way to speak on the counter parties behalf. You 100% want people to not speak/do interviews/say anything at all just because you never know what they might say by accident or how it could come out.

I'll just say they struck me as believers

Cultists is the word. The institution fucking killed their son through negligent manslaughter, and they let them walk.
