Happy Halloween

last year all of us guys in the neighborhood decided to just hang out in the one shared driveway and pass out candy from a central location so we could all hang out and drink beer, this year, we upped our game and have a few inflatable archways to make it more streamlined, we've gathered more beer and also decided we are grilling this year while passing out candy - my neighborhood has really made me start to enjoy Halloween again now that my kids are older

Boston Celtics (18x NBA champions)

Celtics' Joe Mazzulla wants to bring fighting back to NBA: 'What's more entertaining than a little scuffle?'

Mazzulla's plans might not be the best for his players but he understands what the people want​


Anyone who follows the NBA with any sort of regularity knows by now that Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla is an odd cat. To me, he's odd in awesome ways. The guy supposedly watched "The Town" two to three times a week at one point in his life, and he has real thoughts on how to actually rob Fenway Park, to the point that he scopes out exit points when he's at Red Sox games. Honestly, the guy is a treasure.

So when Mazzulla made an appearance on Boston radio and was asked what he would change about the NBA, you knew he wasn't going to give a stock answer. True to form, Mazzulla elaborated on why the NBA should institute power plays after fouls, forcing the offending team to play a man down for a length of time, as in hockey.

Oh, and he also wants to "bring back fighting."

"The biggest thing that we rob people of from an entertainment standpoint is you can't fight anymore. I wish we'd bring back fighting," Mazzulla said on NBC Sports Boston in a manner that certainly didn't sound like he was trying to be funny. "What's more entertaining than a little scuffle? How come in baseball they're allowed to clear the benches? How come in hockey they're allowed to fight? I don't understand. I just don't get why some sports are allowed to clear the benches. They have bats and weapons [in baseball]. We don't. We have a ball. The other sport [hockey] has one of the hardest playing surfaces and a puck and a stick. And yet we're not allowed to throw down a little bit?"

2027 PA OL Maxwell Hiller (Verbal Offer)

Yes please.

Bring in Hartline to close! :pimp:
Agreed, at this point IDC who's recruiting the OL, just let the person who can relate to OL recruits get on the trail with Frye. Whatever Urban did with Warriner(who was a known terrible and lazy recruiter) to still land top OL recruits, utilize that method. Frye has shown that he can't recruit at the highest level OOS. If Hartline, Bailey and Lock need to help, then have them meet Frye on the trail. Many of the recruits at other positions go to schools close to these OL recruits, or are at the same school. Just tag team. This shouldn't be a hard method for a school like OSU. I can't believe that other schools weren't doing the same. No way do I believe a guy like Stud was left on the trail by himself at past stops. And Frye has to realize he's no longer at UCLA, settling for projects shouldn't be his strategy. And whiffing on HS recruits, there should be a quick pivot to finding what OL are available in the Portal. I can think of at least 5 OL with midwest ties that would've made better 2nd string LT options than Michalski

Game Thread Nebraska at tOSU, Sat. Oct. 26, 12pm ET, FOX


“During Nebraska’s final drive of the first half, on second down with two yards to gain on the Ohio State 39-yard line, the ball was incorrectly spotted after a run by Cornhuskers RB Emmett Johnson,” the statement read. “The ball carrier crossed the 37-yard line and a first down should have been awarded to Nebraska. “Replay should have stopped the game to review the spot since it involved the line-to-gain.”


This officiating crew needs to find their way to the MAC.
That was next level bonkers. The announcers wondered if maybe the linesman got confused as to who had the ball, because there was a weird skirmish away from the play between an OL and a DL. Which......ok that explains why you marked the ball where you marked it, but now we need to have a conversation on HOW THE FUCK DO YOU GET CONFUSED AS TO WHO HAD THE BALL?

Keon Keeley (DL Alabama)

Not sure how good he is ...
However, he clearly fits into an LJ scheme better than the Alabama scheme.
Actually the Bama scheme now is very similar to what OSU runs now(or wants to run). 4-2-5, with a DE being able to be a pass rusher(Jack) or switch to SDE. I thought they still were running 3-4, which he would be terrible in. But it looks like they didn't like him at full time DE, and decided to try and bulk him up to play DT. And that hasn't worked either... Change of scenery couldn't hurt, but what is he as a player?
