Sunday’s Loss Was Just a Replay of the Win in KC
UConn James replied to st pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall
Did you not see Cook’s drops on screen passes this year? It was brutal, especially in clutch situations. -
How do you explain Diggs invisibility act
UConn James replied to Coldfronts's topic in The Stadium Wall
It’s a bit sickening that the Vikings picked Justin Jefferson with the pick we traded to get Diggs. -
Milano, as great as he is when he’s in there, is injured so often we just can’t depend on him to be on the field for the playoffs. LBs take a beating, him more than many it seems.
-
After that ball went right through his f’in hands I don’t want to hear word one from Diggs insofar as any kind of criticism of the team. He failed Josh, the team, and the fans right there. Stay silent until training camp my dude. So skipping the postgame presser is a whatever.

AFC Division Playoff - Chiefs @ Bills 1st half game thread
UConn James replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
That was on Poyer. Bumped Kelce then let him go right past as he joined coverage on Gray. Doh! -
Just to note that the Rams were given permission to use their white unis in the Super Bowl they won a few years ago, rather than the “bone” ones which were officially their away set at the time. I mean… clearly the best decision.

The Gabe Davis conversation (Allen with and without Gabe)
UConn James replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
When he went down, I’m a bit chagrined to admit that I kinda cheered. Will have one fabulous game and then the next eight Josh might as well be throwing to Mr. Magoo. No separation, no fight for the ball, running the wrong route / making the wrong break. On Josh’s first INT, Gabe was the target and he was 10 yards away from the ball after cutting inside when Josh was expecting outside / toward sideline. They are absolutely not in sync. Someone else can pay him in the off-season and get him TF out of here. -
On the first KO, Bass booted it out of the end zone. Ball on the 25. Then their LT iirc had a false start penalty. And when they ran the next play, the ball was snapped from the 25 yard line. Did I black out or something?

Stadium Construction Discussion (No PSL/Seat selection posts)
UConn James replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall
The tour reporters have asked her why — given her parents are billionaires — she plays and I suppose this is exactly why Jessie Pegula has stayed on the WTA 🎾 circuit. Gotta bring home some of that Wimbledon & Aussie Open bacon to fund the stadium overages! -
For me it’s Bruce’s sack where he just engulfed Bledsoe from behind. Iconic moment. Pic below, altho I can’t find anything else in a quick Google search… odd. Welcome to the NFL, rookie. Yep, always liked this uni set from the Pats*. The grey facemasks look much better than the red they switched to the next year. It just makes it look better as a standalone piece, but they wanted to tie it into the rest of the uni / team colors. Also, the pants stripe emulating the flags / streams of the logo were a nice unique touch that they changed to bland stripes. And there’s something about the royal blue that’s lost when they went to navy… but in the same breath it is nice to have some defined color differentiation b/w our teams in the same division. Yeah, it was this one… altho I can’t find a better one in a quick google search. Hmm.

Are you or anyone in your family big gift givers for Christmas?
UConn James replied to Another Fan's topic in Off the Wall
For the kiddos, nieces and nephew, I was a proponent of the: 1 thing they want 1 thing they need 1 thing they wear 1 thing they read Christmas hasn’t been festive here in quite a while tho. My mum passed in 2014. Haven’t seen one niece who I was very close with (my brother has severe Lyme disease and I would go over there and help when he had her) since 2015, due to 8 YEARS in family court and she now doesn’t really remember us #ParentalAlienation. I only see my other brother and his kids like once a year; they and their mum do their own thing ~1 hour away. I’m on the autism spectrum and don’t really connect with other people easily. So yeah. Haven’t put up the tree in 8 years and would just spend the day/s with my dog. He passed in November at almost 14 and it was wrecking me. Got a rescue goldendoodle about 3 weeks ago, which was my Christmas present for myself and for him and it’s still melancholy… but bearable now. I’ve been getting things for him this season — walking harness & new leash, treats, chewing bone, clipper set so I can do grooming myself and save some money…. If I need something through the year I just get it when I can instead of saving it for Christmas. There are some in my Facebook circle who go very overboard. But for the most part, it seems to be getting more low-key. -
Jesus. And now Los Dodgers also sign Yamamoto to a huge contract — 12 years at $325M. Baseball really needs a salary cap. Or at least a salary ceiling that a team can’t spend over. The ‘luxury tax’ system does nothing but allow the few big markets to buy all of the talent &/or championships. There is absolutely no parity. None. ONE guy on the Dodgers is making more in one year of his contract than 10 teams spend on their entire roster. The players union loves it I'm sure but it’s absolutely TERRIBLE for the game.

Buffalo @ Philadelphia Game Thread - 1st half
UConn James replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
If I were McD or on that sideline, I’d attack Hoculi on the field and not stop punching him in the face until…. I am F’IN PISSED!!!!! -

I wanna eat some zebra at halftime. This is BS!!!!! -

I’m putting a hit out on Hoculi. -
Buffalo @ Philadelphia Game Thread - 1st half
UConn James replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Someone of us needs to kick Hoculi’s ass. -
Buffalo @ Philadelphia Game Thread - 1st half
UConn James replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Where does this prick live? A Hoculi still jobbing us. Some of the mafia need to visit him. There’s been 3 BS calls… so far. Painting the field yellow. 😡 -
Happy 64th birthday to Nervous Guy!

Merry Natal Anniversary, NG!!! -
New Coordinator, New Haircut, Old Josh
UConn James replied to KingBoots8's topic in The Stadium Wall
It was like when Rick Vaughn comes on the field in Major League 2 back to his old look & personality, tells the Randy Quaid fan character to go screw himself, and they dig out the “Wild Thing” tape for the PA system. Josh was Josh again. -
So far… meet the new boss same as the old boss.

Singletary & Moss both look much better on new teams
UConn James replied to Chicagobills's topic in The Stadium Wall
The fact that our RB coach hasn’t developed f—-all given multiple 2nd & 3rd round picks… why is he still here? Looking it up… We can’t get better than Kelly Skipper? -
Clarissa Thompson admits to fabricating sideline reports.
UConn James replied to Gregg's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think the only reason broadcasters have sideline reporters is to give some jobs to women to be able to say they hired women, and to give some time to some eye candy to fill in the dead moments between the approximately 11 minutes (and, yes, this is an real thing) of actual gameplay in a 3 hour broadcast. Gotta keep short attention span Americans watching the screen by jumping between fifty cameras. I often watch with the sound down very low because honestly, I don’t really wanna listen to two or three shmucks in a booth tell me what I just saw with my own eyes and make blabbering empty-talk. I watch Wimbledon and on the outer courts in earlier rounds they just have a live feed, no commentators or ones that only rarely speak to o point out actually important things but otherwise STHU. It’s like you’re sitting in the stands but with THE best view and replays. Would that we could have that for NFL… but then it’d be patently obvious how terrible it is to watch football as a spectator with so many tv timeouts and such. -
Blue on Blue for Monday Night Football
UConn James replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
No, that’s not a regulation. Some teams have just gone the extra bit to do end zones or mid-fields in old contemporary-to-throwbacks designs. It’s a fuller nod toward history / tradition. Not a mandate. For us that might entail using green turf paint over the charging Buffalo at midfield and then painting on top of that.
