Calkins and the kid were laughing at some of y'all this morning
They were reminiscing about those dummies who were clamoring for the Piano Man to start over Lynch.

I still think that Lynch's development would not have been stymied, and we would have maybe won a ballgame or two more, if Karam would have had meaningful snaps in a couple of games. Hard to say if I'm right or wrong.
I will say (and I think if I look back, my posts will reflect this), that I thought that Lynch was rightfully the starter and I wasn't critical of him at all, when many were.

He need look no further than the person that sits in the chair immediately after him.

I agree that giving Karam some snaps probably wouldn't have hurt anything, but making Lynch the starter has proven to be the right call.

I was in favor a 3-4 game transition from one to the other. I don't think it would have affected where Lynch is today as a QB at all. However, it is all water under the bridge at this point. Fuente has pretty well proven that he knows exactly what he's doing.
Sounds like a couple of a s s-clowns trying to generate calls during the slow season.

The only thing Vandy made news at in the last year was the rape trial of some of their players. Considering that, this looks pretty dumb on their part.

I don't know what it means. To go to the bathroom? To date your daughter?

They dealt with it so fast. And it didn't make biggest possible news. But it was a much bigger scandalous thing in reality.

Well well well. What have we here? Another one. How many of y'all are there.
I invite you to come check out my rake-- the one that leans against the barbed wire fence around the bee hives...can't miss it.
Edit: Do you attend the tailgating partays? I'm gonna be there this season for a couple of them.
Never been to one before.
