Exactly what we deserve. Fortunately, I will be in Captiva that week and thus have an excuse--other than I don't hate myself nearly enough--to drive over to Annapolis to watch Hafley try to match Adazzio's best win total.

Fairly well known in insider circles that Hafley ducked the bowl last year out of fear of being exposed by another coach with multiple weeks' prep...

Let's see if he's up to the challenge.

That song applies to the transfers. Try to keep up. I know we're all busy fighting the final stages of Satan's War on Christmas, so I'll let it go.

This begs the question, would it be more dangerous for Phil to play behind no OL or the OL we have trotted out all year.

I feel like the OL is not as bad as you all make it out to be compared to a typical college football OLine. Our DL was so bad it made every opposing OL look good.

I've always hated Rick Catlett's exhibition.

EDIT: Rutgers has been offered TAMU's spot in the bowl given Jersey is currently ranked 5th in the Nation (in COVID cases).
EDIT: Rutgers AD declined the offer.
EDIT: Schiano overruled him and they will now agree to drive the Candy Van down 95.

May not be quite done yet; Jags owner Shad Khan is an alum of Illinois, and he's pushing hard for them to be the opponent.

So are fully vaccinated football team is riddled with Covid? Hmm, its almost as if the current vaccines are almost entirely worthless and this whole past year has been nothing but a complete waste of time and an exercise in government pumping trillions of dollars into the coffers of certain chosen political donors while needlessly making life miserable for the normals and especially miserable for normals who weren't buying Donny and Joe's Miracle Cure and Snake Oil. It's almost as if we fucked up immensely and should have followed the science-backed approach undertaken by the Swedes and Danes of isolating the vulnerable and letting the virus run its course with the healthy population that shrugged it off like a mild flu.

Anyway, I am glad the bowl is cancelled. We have a shitty team and it's a shitty bowl and East Carolina is a shitty and uninteresting opponent. Also, Annapolis is highly overrated and the whole "Drinking Town with a Boating Problem" is insufferably gay. Also, West Point >>>>>>> Naval Academy.

Combination of COVID, player opt-outs, transfers, and injuries led to BC being down over 40 players including one entire position group per Jason Baum.

They could have played 7-on-7 flag football against ECU, one-one-thousand, two-one-thousand, three-one-thousand style? What difference would it have made? No one was watching the game anyway.

Jesus, Dick, when did you go from interesting to being such a troll?


I don't know. Guess it's a matter of perspective.

With that said, the vaccines seem pretty worthless at this point unless you subscribe to the notion that they somehow lessen the severity of covid, which is really hard to demonstrate, and, when you actually look at the data, there isn't a lot to support that notion as oldsters and the co-morbidity crew continue to die in big numbers whether they are vaccinated or not, which is why we are up to 800K+ deaths with a Y/Y number that is, remarkably, higher than 2020. In the meantime, rather than a pandemic of the unvaccinated, the primary victims of covid (70% of all deaths) are people older than 75 years old with more than half of that number being in the 85+ years of age group. Over two years, the total number of Americans younger than 50 who have died of covid around 50K with more than 65% of that number being in the 40-49 range. The number of people in that group with known co-morbidities is over 90% with 100% of the 655 children younger than 17 having known, severe co-morbidities.

Also, all of the above data is pulled from CDC and the likely more accurate JHU tracker, so not what you would call a right wing fever swamp. I'd also note, that as the Biden Administration's attacks on the unvaccinated become more extreme and unsettling "winter of death", etc., there is no reliable data to support the notion that the unvaccinated are dying in higher numbers than the vaccinated. In fact, in Israel, 5 out of 6 covid deaths that have occurred since May of 2021 have been vaccinated patients. The numbers are pretty much the same as those reported by the NHS in the UK. Meanwhile, the Swedes have averaged less than one covid death per day in 2021 (.6) after isolating the elderly and infirm in 2020 and letting covid run through its general population. Make what you will of the data, but it isn't trolling to point it out.

Of course, if you are talking about my harsh statements about our football team, our would-be opponent, the quality of the Military Bowl, my feelings about Annapolis or the relative merits of the USMA--which produced Grant, Sherman, Patton, Eisenhower, etc--vs. the USNA--which produced Jimmy Carter and Chester Nimitz (who was rejected by West Point)--welp, I can't help you there as facts are facts.
