George didn't write anything in the early years and was just learning to construct songs in 1964. John and Paul wrote songs for him to sing. His first decent compositions were on Rubber Soul. He got better pretty fast after that, but the pecking order had been set. He was getting his 1-3...

I thought I had voted for the Beatles and replied to this thread already. Either my answer was objectionable and got deleted, or I just dreamed it. Now I vote for Fleetwood Mac. I think they were closer to an even split between 3 songwriters/vocalists. The Beatles, and Eagles too for that...

Nah keep doing it and having a sense of humor about it. Sorry for the life turbulence. I've been finding means of coping too. Retail therapy has been my go to recently, but that's probably not sustainable.

I'm a huge fan of @theknowledge and nominated him for the glorious post of Moderator of the Fishing Hole but, recently he has reminded me of this every time someone makes a negative comment about player personnel

You do if you've seen enough to determine that said coach isn't on a trajectory to reach the playoffs or bust goal in year 3. 9-4 against a pillow soft schedule, with uncompetitive losses to the only decent teams on the schedule, doesn't suggest that UW is playoff bound next year.

FTFY

The Canes made that one of the better natty games In recent memory when I expected a fairly easy Hoosier win, say 34-17. They look like they Ray Lewis Canes out there, Creep!

Johnson's biggest and most irreplaceable value was picking up blitzes. He would've helped a lot against Michigan. Our OL wasn't pushed around so much as they were bewildered about who was coming where and they were just whiffing. Johnson compensated for that all year when healthy. But it...

I wonder if I saw you there for that last one. "Try the cock. It's a delicacy, and you know where it's been". That was one of the highlights IIRC. Also I'm almost sure that's the only movie where I've seen a man stab someone, a woman iirc, in the face with a fork.

Didn't Arizona have a good defense under Fisch with Johnny Patron as coordinator? It would be unusual and funny for Fisch, an offensive minded coach who refuses to hand over the play calling to an offensive coordinator, to have defenses that consistently outperform his offenses.

I actually think I remember it. I also remember him mentioning an article he had written and thinking that he was just referring to one of his posts as an article. I liked it better when I thought that.

Pup wrote articles?

I've been mildly curious too. Something really pissed him off a couple of weeks ago. I'm just disappointed that whatever it was didn't get more fully aired out in the middle of the store.

I was actually on the side of building mostly through HS recruiting but I see now that isn't going to work at UW. The young guys don't stick around to be old guys, and old guys are the ones who win, so you have to focus more resources on portal players. I don't like it but acceptance is...

Sitting in my office with the sun glaring through the windows at me I just had to shut off dark mode. I couldn't read it at all. Maybe I could have increased the brightness. I just switched to system in preferences though, and put dark mode on a sunset to sunrise schedule.
