And it extends well beyond this setting. Take for example someone who has worked in higher ed administration for 30+ years -- ask them how often they heard from students' parents in the 1990s about kids' grades and then how often they hear from students' parents about grades today. Stark difference. Not for nothing: Was there talk that Hodgson had some of this going on with his dad?

Eleven Posted August 30, 2019 Report Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Greatest comeback in NFL preseason history! I've said it before, and I'll say it again: With Tyree Jackson, and against a bunch of guys who will be spending their autumns finishing their kinesthesiology degrees, this team can do anything. Edited August 30, 2019 by Eleven 1
That Aud Smell Posted August 30, 2019 Report Posted August 30, 2019 I was in the car and tuned into some of the pregame with Schopp, Brown, and Wood. I didn’t know who Wood was initially. I’m here to say: He was really good. Smart. Insightful. Funny. Solid folksy voice.
LGR4GM Posted August 30, 2019 Report Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Steve Tasker on the broadcast was bad at times. He would blather on and repeat himself overexplaining why a player did something or missed doing something. It was annoying. He would also say "he" constantly. He WHO?!? How am I suppose to know who 84 on the 4th string is? "Oh wow he had a great catch there" fantastic was it Duke Williams? Was it Sills? He who? Edited August 30, 2019 by LGR4GM

It pains me as I loved him as a player but he's constantly getting players wrong, not identifying them (as you mentioned), blabbing incessantly about unimportant things while something important and obvious is taking place on the field that he's oblivious to.

There's a reason that CBS took him out of the booth and put him on the sidelines.

Randall Flagg Posted August 30, 2019 Report Posted August 30, 2019 Bates' play and versatility this preseason versus the same non-first-stringers Bodine struggled against probably sealed that.
