    This photo of OL play is just comical

    Not sure who exactly Miranda is on that play, but the idea of the bite block is to get the defensive lineman on the ground by taking their legs out and getting their hands down so they can't bat the ball down. You can only hit them that low in the tackle box and when you fire off the ball like...

    This photo of OL play is just comical

    Watching the full video of the play, the linemen performed what is called a bite block we you aim for the defenders family jewels to get their hands down and take out their legs. This is usually done for a short pass over the middle just behind where the DL\LBs would be. However, it seems as if...

    Pro sports attendance is way down

    I am guessing because all the political bs has trickled into sports and people used sports to escape and forget about life for a while. It has become unpleasant to watch or go to a sporting event.

    On his radio show tonight, Franklin made a cryptic statement about his future at Penn State

    Maybe this goes higher than Sandy. Maybe the higher up don't want such a huge emphasis on football and let a coach get so ingrained in the system and society where he is in "control" and everyone answers to him instead of vice versa. Hopefully, that is not the case and they give him the...

    E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!! Eagles - Raiders game thread

    I feel bad for Flacco but then again, he will probably beat the Eagles when they play so he will be on the winning side for once

    E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!! Eagles - Raiders game thread

    These young coaches are in over their heads. I believe the talent is there but they just don't know how to use it properly. You change you schemes to match your talent. They ain't doing that. If you listen to Fletcher Cox's presser, it is even more evident now. They need to hire some retired or...

    106 year-old Berks County lady credits longevity to.......

    I guess that's why they call it Vitamin Y in that region. (Had a friend from Minersville bring a case of Vitamin Y(his words) to parties all the time in the mid 80s before Yuengling was as popular as it is now).

    Looking for a place for long weekend getaway in the woods...

    Surprised no on mentioned Happy Valley yet. Tons of MTB and Hiking Trails in Rothrock and also in Bald Eagle. Could always pop into town for a meal and drinks then head back to the woods. Should be lots of availability on non-Football weekends and during the week. Leaves just started turning.

    E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!! Birds - Buccaneers game thread

    That's the thing with Philly fans, if you come here, work your arse off, play hard, and don't act like a spoiled elite rich athlete, the Philly fans embrace you and appreciate you and support you. Then when you are traded, you continue your class act and do something like this. I think Chase...

    Ted Lasso...did I miss the conversation?

    Season 2s usually don't live up to Season 1s, no matter what the series is. I enjoy watching Ted Lasso and think it is one of the funnier series out today. I come from an era of Night Court, Cheers, etc and am finding Ted Lasso to be that wholesome kind of funny. I totally identify with Roy...

    FC/OT: Uh-oh - Urban Meyer is trending…I see some ‘health conditions’ in his near future…

    Not sure if this has been said, but at one point in time weren't we excited that UM was going to be JoePa's successor? Thank goodness that didn't happen that he would have brought his shitshow to PSU.

    Yikes! Beware of premium hike to homeowners insurance.

    We had a hail storm roll thru almost 10 years ago now. State Farm was thee worst to deal with in our neighborhood(Those who had State Farm had problems, those who had All State and Eire has no issues). I was a loyal State Farm customer for 30+ years. The claims adjuster was an arsehole that was...

    2021 PSU WVB Thread

    Granted, I didn't watch the entire match but from what I did watch it appears they still have serve receive issues? I noticed this in the first match against Iowa State. Granted the opposition is serving to where the players are stacked to screw up your offense but I don't recall in the past...
