Comments on: Football From Last Year to This Year http://www.pittblather.com/2008/03/25/football-from-last-year-to-this-year/ The rantings and commentary on Pitt football and basketball ... and anything else from a distracted mind Fri, 08 Aug 2008 19:13:16 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: chiz http://www.pittblather.com/2008/03/25/football-from-last-year-to-this-year/#comment-98719 chiz Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:00:33 +0000 http://www.pittblather.com/2008/03/25/football-from-last-year-to-this-year/#comment-98719 Good post. You make some great points that most people do not fully understand. "There’s nothing like the spring practices to challenge the cynicism. There’s the anticipated — almost standardized — stories of off-season workouts; new coaches and new perspectives; position changes; players ready to step up; blind optimism; players coming back from injury and so on." I like how you explained that. Very helpful. Thanks. Good post. You make some great points that most people do not fully understand.

I don't believe people that write Blogs on the Internet pretend to be reporters, at least I've never heard Chas state that in the three years I've been reading his stuff. It is his personal view on things with links to give background on what he's talking about. He does just fine at it.

In this comment, really, should I suggest someone's "calling-out" someone else or thing? See, I told you so. I don't wholly get it, "Pittbull," the bull, the bull dog, the pitt bull, the terrior, whose seeming motivation underlies all our strivings to be, well, "bigger, stronger, faster, cuter," as I tell my ridgebacked dog, Axel. And he agrees, too, that this is why he acts always the way he does, despite my telling him to just 'cool-it, son.' In ref to: Go to www.notpleased.com and you can read all the Pitt stories of the day on one site. Chas whe was the last, or should I say first, time you talked to a player, coach or even a fan? Yeah, I thought so.

I think last year it was about halfway through spring ball.
