    2014-2021 (8 seasons) of Franklin -- good, bad, and lots of in-between.

    What stands out to me as a common theme is losing the game after having a 4th quarter lead multiple times, where mediocre QBs look like Heisman Trophy winners and absolutely shred a defense that wasn't able to get any pressure on the QB. Barrett, Lewerke, and about a half dozen others. That...

    Now that I am somewhat calmer......

    There is a bit of frustration stemming from the basic fact that pure luck prevented Penn State from being 7-0 and ranked no lower than 3rd in the country. The Iowa game was won, and PSU was pounding them solidly. Then Clifford went down and the staff needs to own the fact that there was no...

    Other Games 10/23

    Pitt would a absolutely be spanking Penn State today. They would win by at least 3 TDs.

    Goodbye 2021. The first 5 weeks were fun.

    Allar officially a 5-star

    All the more reason for Ohio State to pull up a wheel barrow full of Benjamins.

    Let's keep this simple, and please tattoo it on your heart and soul. A national chain is pure indifference. Nothing is going on in that kitchen that is innovative and exciting, teasing the maximum out of specialty ingredients from local purveyors. A cook who can follow corporate recipes or...

    Yeah, the pandemic affected a lot of the restaurant scene. I know Tom Sietsema and I have eaten at most of the restaurants in his 22nd guide, I'll take his number 1, Oyster Oyster, right now over almost any other restaurant in the DC area. At number 3 is Annabelle, and number 5 is old stalwart...

    Do I really need to do this again? Rule Number One -- Do not go to a chain! If you want to experience the cuisine of a particular city, do not eat at a corporate kitchen where corporate cooks prepare corporate food with indifference. Rule Number Two -- Seek out the very best, like Zahav. Make...

    Orgeron is out at LSU

    Saban has, what, maybe 5 years left at "Bama. He'll be in his mid-70s, probably tired of all the NCAA bullcrap, numerous championships under his belt, and bank account overflowing. He'll probably also make a fortune as a commentator, and he'll probably write a book or two. Someone who takes the...

    Lancaster mall shooting

    I had a nephew there, who got out without getting hurt. At least three shot and two others trampled, according to my Lancaster family.

    Big Levis and Purdue fan today

    I'm seeing bowl projections that have Penn State playing Kentucky in the Citrus Bowl. That would be a fun game.

    RIP Ray Fosse

    It was well over the top, typical Pete Rose, all out of proportion to the time and place. The All Star Game is an exhibition game, for goodness sake. It's not a life-or-death, do-or-die game, unless you're a buffoon like Pete Rose. He could have slid, but he saw that Fosse was defenseless and he...

    DT rotation?

    Any chance we see a 3-4?

    RIP Ray Fosse

    Ray Fosse was one of MANY reasons why I despise Pete Rose. He was one of great catchers in the decade of great catchers -- Fisk, Bench, Munson -- until Pete Rose ended his career with an unnecessary targeting penalty.

    Allright, let's do this.....it's time for second half predictions...

    Without Clifford -- no better than 3-3 the rest of the way, 8-4 overall. With Clifford -- 5-1 the rest of the way, 10-2 overall.
