He knows what he’s doing. He’s a machine politician, a Chicago
machine politician. Although to some degree the machine kept him at
arm’s length because they didn’t want him changing what they had or
were or are doing, their option was to promote him toward the National
stage. Well the National Dems bought it and him, hook line and
stinker. Of course the Chicago machine did what they could to pave
the road for him too.

knowledge that a lot of the voters hold. I believe a lot of people
believe that the effects of the damage are being felt now, but in
truth the impact will come now and more so after this one gets out
of office. I honestly believe the lack of knowledge is what keeps
the party shifting that goes on. Right now a good portion of
people are on the republican bandwagon, but if a republican gets
into office due to the impact of the previous President the
majority will be on the democratic bandwagon. Both parties have
good candidates and both parties have horrible candidates so it is
not a matter of me being a die hard republican. It is a matter of
Obuma not knowing what he is doing or perhaps he does know exactly
what he is doing as he destroys America.

also on his behalf Federal was also involved. Still nothing like

Take a look at Lane Kieffan, he leaves and

with Bruce Pearl and the basketball
program. Even after Bruce was penalized
from coaching, I think UT suffered
penalties. Of course there are going to be
some reprocussions on the program just
because the coach is connected, but in a
way I think our teams suffered more than
the coaches. Probably just a biased
opinion, but ya know.
Penn State incident is a pathetic joke.
There is no way that it could have went on
that long and the situations continued
without someone speaking up about it.
The whole concept of innocent until proven
guilty does not apply anymore. The concept
is now guilty until you prove yourself
innocent. Even if the Criminal Justice
System sees you as innocent until proven
guilty, the rest of the public are ready
to hang you before they even hear the
evidence. A clear example of this occurred
the other day in class. After the Grand
Jury came back with a not guilty verdict
in Ferguson my professor asked the classs
what they thought about the incident. The
responses were well they knew if they
found him not guilty they were going to
have a riot, they should have just found
him guilty to keep the rioting from
occurring, he was wrong for shooting
Michael Brown, etc. However, not one
person made a comment regarding the
evidence in the case. If you do not follow
the directions of the police expect to be
met with reprocussions. If you try to get
the officers gun expect to get shot
because I can guarantee that if all these
sideline judges were put in this same
situation they would want to go home to
their family as well and not sit idly by
and let some random citizen adolescent or
adult take their gun to shoot them with
it. It is insane the autopsy was done, and
then if I am not mistaken Obuma was not
satisfied with the results so he ordered
another autopsy, and I think there were a
few more autopsies done before they moved
forward. How can you convict a person that
was engaging in self defense?

Unfortunately it sounds like in some of
On the sports media down there they
are already convicted. Sounds like a
convoluted case to me, but I’m sure a
lot of them are anyway.
Then the NCAA will probably want to
threaten UT and the whole 9 yards, yet Pen
State gets off pretty easy. There’s still
a lot of idiots around there that think
that school is blameless and inocent with
what went on there. Maybe UT should have
set up in a much more isolated spot like
Pen State did. Of course I’m being a
smart ass about that, but that is
partially how Pen State has gotten away
with a lot more for much longer. A
definite little theefdom there. Meanwhile
schools like OSU get nailed for a lot less
and get threatened with the chop. Makes
Illinois’s recruiting violation back in
the early 90s look like chump change too,
yet they were threatened with full shut
down of all sports activity. I guess it’s
who you know in the NCAA. Which seems to
me to be as clean as the driven slush. I
guess in the whole UT situation it was the
school that stepped in and sat them down,
but don’t know all of the details of the
whole deal. Guess we’ll hear something
though if they decide to pursue a case on
them.

elements to the story, but KPD announced
last night that there investigation was
complete and being sent to the D.A.’s

It is a tragic situation either way
because if they are guilty then they have
not only ruined their careers, but also
ruined the victims lives. If they are not
guilty, then I would say there will not be
a decision until after the bowl game which
will prevent them from playing in the
game. Not too mention that if they are
found not guilty there will still be
people holding it against them. So, either
way it is a major black mark on these
players.

But a QB who knows how to tuck and run is
often not noticed until he’s gotten 10
yards down the field if he can pull off
the fake. If they then concentrate to
much attention looking for him to run then
he then is able to either use a running
back or tail back or pass. Thats why
option offense is harder to defend. You
have to have a QB that can take some
punishment though, no frail guys as QB, or
guys who can’t work outside of a pocket of
protection. For those it’s a disaster for
them to try to run the ball themselves.
Does though is in pretty good shape
physically. He’s taken sacks pretty well
already this year too. There have been a
few reckless plays, but learning from them
will cure those. But that whole offense
well really the whole team is having to
learn because there’s so many freshman on
that team this year. They are already
coming together as a unit pretty good,
could be quite interesting even in a
couple of years, let alone 3 years from now.

He did play in the Bamma game, but he
wasn’t the starter I don’t think. I
think they would have at least taken
Florida though, and maybe Georgia, and
that would have changed things a lot
for U T. Dobs fits in to the type of
offense that Butch Jones likes to run
which of course is an option heavy
offense. No problem with that,
because your QB becomes a direct
offensive weapon at that point. It is
either going to work or not. There
isn’t a middle ground, usually it
works though.

Even more surprising is that
Illinois managed to get in also.
Won just enough games in Big 10
this year. It’s been a long time.
Interesting baseball trades going
on today too. Sox are definitely
getting aggressive about trading.
Picked up a closer something that
they didn’t have last year because
the guy they wanted to be closer
was hurt early. Then they turn
around and pick up Semarja to beef
up their starting rotation. Cubs
have already been dealing, they
don’t have many secrets as to who
they are wanting, although the
Lester deal hasn’t happened yet.
But if they pick him up that will
anchor their starting rotation
quite a bit too.
As for TN, I still say thats a
team to be watching out for. The
SEC east isn’t a super strong
devision, it can be taken and not
have to get around a team like
Alabama.Depends on recruiting but
they’ve already improved over last
year’s team despite injuries etc.
They don’t give up, unlike the
Chicago Bears who seeo just curl
up in a ball.
Illini basketball is looking
pretty interesting this year too
and they’ve already landed a major
recruit to start next year. Lots
of things on the sports plate,
something that is needed since Da
Bears are so bad this year.

Yep, keep an eye on those
Vols, they are going to be
heard in the next year tr two
seriously the way things are
going. They’ve had a lot of
injuries, but still manage to
keep on going to some degree.
Yes the style of offense they
play actually fits Dobs better
than the guy they had start
the year, Dobs himself becomes
a weapon because he can take
more punishment running the
ball himself. Even in the
Bama game they did’t give up
even though Bama got a two
score lead within the first
couple of minutes of the game.
Yes this whole internet thing
is a great invention, have
listened to more Tennessee
games this year than Illinois
games, although I did hear the
Illini Gofers game and like
everybody else was surprised
they actually pulled that one
off. I bet the Gofers were
surprised the most coming in
with only 1 Big 10 loss at the
time. Think they looked over
the Illini and got burned on
that one. Well it serves them
right they derailed the Illini
a number of times in the past.
