The phase " The touchdown maker" is starting to get old. Florida WR Dallas Baker (" Dallas Baker the touchdown maker!!!!!") has made it famous. I just herd someone on tv say " Tank Baker the touchdown maker".

 

Dallas Baker is the man. Gator Nation.

What about...

 

"It is what it is" seems like everyones saying that now.

 

Yes, that is the most ridiculous phrase people use now. It says nothing at all. It's not even an answer. It's redundant.

 

A couple years ago all the TV/Radio people had a favorite word they ALL were using, and still use. Every time you listened to a show some player who probably got a degree in Entertainment Center Assembly would use it to sound smart. The word: PLETHORA. I can't use that word now because of them.

It takes one to know one

 

 

 

Some cliches that cause me to shake my head

 

 

 

* "We're gonna play 'em one game at a time." (Not much choice about that, now is there!)

 

 

 

* "They put on their pants one leg at a time, too." (Yeah, but all the muscle and speed they put into them.)

 

 

 

* "If we can keep it close, we have a chance." (Pretty self-evident)

 

 

 

* "This one is going to be decided into the trenches." (Well, not really "trenches," not really even depressions, just that area along the line of scrimmage.)

 

 

 

* The various nicknames for offensive linemen: "hogs," "big uglies," "sweathogs," etc.

 

 

 

* "There's no tomorrow." (If not, why the heck are we sitting at this football game instead of the girls dorm?)

 

 

 

* "You can throw the records out the window."...(But you'll probably have to go out and pick them up, since there's a lot of paper involved.)

 

 

 

* "He doesn't know the meaning of the word "quit"....(or lots of other words either, which is why he is ineligible about half the time.)

 

 

 

* "A (take your choice--baseball, football, basketball, boxing)____ classic..." (An ESPN channel offered "Classic Bowling" the other night.)

 

 

 

* "Their record doesn't reflect how good our opponent really can be" (And neither does anything else.)

 

 

 

* "In spite of their record, our opponents are a dangerous team." (They may injure themselves taking and leaving the field.)

 

 

 

* "We're gonna bow our necks," "put our shoulders to the wheel," "put our nose to the grindstone (Now, try to catch a football in that position.}

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
