BC Football preseason 2016

[Corporal Funishment]

The shift has been subtle, but undeniable. Hard to distinguish in real time, but impossible to ignore in retrospect. Much like the slow encroachment of a migrating glacier, or Salt Queen's shift in sexual preferences.

Why are we wearing short pants to play football?

[dtwalrus]

Anyone know when practices/scrimmages start up again?

Fit?

I think they start Sunday

These unis blow. BC's marketing/branding people can't seem to get anything right.

Callihan is healthy? https://twitter.com/BCFootball?lang=en
He had a very large contraption on his leg at the Spring Game.

This is photo day and he is standing still. But it would be nice to have good ole 4.7 stone hands back--its ok that he drops 95% of the passes he's thrown because we know he's going to pull off at least one incredibly athletic, game-changing catch in traffic across the middle at some point during the season.

Him playing would not be a good thing. He is absolutely awful.

Photo day was a few weeks ago, this was the videos they show on the scoreboard. That fact that he made a video shows that he will be playing this season (for better or worse).
"stone hands" - has he dropped any passes?

I'm shocked someone changed some aesthetic-related item at BC and people here hated it. People don't like change. This is change. It's fairly meh in actuality. Not great, not horrible.

He's never open, so we don't find out much.

Coach Addazio is going to be much improved on game day with the addition of Coach Loeffler. I foresee minimal drop off from Coach Brown to Coach Reid.

It's going to be a good year.

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

in the "theme days" email we received yesterday i noted that none of the themes were "winning the game" or "not fucking up clock management"

i don't think the avoidance of these themes bodes well for the coming year

[DavidGordonsFoot]

I hate uniform talk. I agree the stripes suck, but whatever...

Is IB back for real, or is this like the time he posted about his trip to the USC game in 2013?

I think they start Sunday

They report Sunday and 1st practice is Monday AM

Fuck yeah!

All this negative Nancy bullshit around here is getting way out of hand. If we stay healthy and the offensive line shows any improvement at all, this year is going to be a big step forward from last year. I'm not saying 10-2 or any of that shit, but I think the Clemson, Louisville and FSU games are going to be exciting this year and I bet we pull out one of the upsets.

[TobaccoRoadEagle]

... out one of the upsets.

i disagree. i think more than just one of us will be upset by the end of the football season (not counting microdick, who's sole purpose is to be upset and drink gin fizz)

There's virtually no more room to step backwards, so you've got that going for your argument.

I hate preseason polls. That said, LSU outside the top 5 is laughable.

I agree you can't punish Miles for choking until it happens.

[eepstein0]

FSU at #4 is also comical. Best of luck with that

It's this

I'm kind of curious how many people are going to fly to Ireland for the game vs Georgia Tech....

I'll be in Ireland, but not going to the game. Clam bake.
