Please be well, not just for your sake but also for ours. It's a widely shared sentiment as you can see. All the best.

Cheers!

Masters degree Colunbia University,  fastest time South Carolina Pro Day  4.27, squats 700 Lbs and had the most reps of any RB with the barbell.....not your average RB.  Five foot 5, 200 lbs

Lets go Dante or as they call you "Turbo"

I hope they give him a shot

With or without a prescription, I could not help but root for a fellow Columbia Lion.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Former Columbia football running back Dante Miller '22CC agreed to terms with the New York Giants, pending a physical, the team announced Friday. Miller becomes the first Lion to ink an NFL deal since punter Cameron Nizialek '17CC signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2022.
 
A first-team All-Ivy League selection in 2021, Miller rushed for 1,281 yards on 258 carries with six touchdowns, including a career-long run of 83 yards (sixth-longest rush in school history) during his stint with Columbia. Upon graduation, he ranked ninth in career rushing yards (1,281), fourth in yards per carry (5.0), and seventh in rushing yards per game (49.3) in Columbia history.
 
After exhausting his Ivy League eligibility, the native of Rockingham, North Carolina, joined the University of South Carolina as a graduate transfer. Miller saw action in in six games, rushing for 38 yards on six carries and contributing on special teams.
 
Miller turned heads at South Carolina's pro day, running the 40-yard dash in 4.27 seconds to garner the attention of NFL scouts. Due to NCAA Compliance and NFL rules, he was ruled ineligible for the NFL Draft and allowed to sign with a team as a free agent.



Cheers!

Quote from: Jclayton92 on May 19, 2024, 03:18:35 PMThese cops were clearly not prepared for what they were dealing with and over reacted to the situation. You would likely have not seen the same reaction to something so insignificant or the rush to detain and arrest if this had been in or around a major metropolitan area.

Just my opinion though.

As I read the accounts it wasn't these cops, it was this cop.  And he was a detective and not experienced in a situation like this (pure conjecture - was he already a little pissed and out of sorts to be called out in the rain to do crowd control instead of investigating the fatality ?).  And he (and the others, to be fair) were wearing yellow optical vests so it might not have been apparent that he was even a cop.  A cop told Sheffler to bypass the traffic and he was doing what he was told.  Then this guy got involved.  And I repeat a point I made earlier, what kind of idiot tries to stop a car by grabbing it and holding on when it doesn't stop.  I also found it amusing that the last line of the police report was about his ruined beyond repair uniform trousers, valued at $80.

I'm a very conservative guy and I pretty much knee-jerk support the cop in controversial cases, but from what I've read, given the circumstances and Sheffler's reputation as the straightest of straight arrows, not this time.

 I sure don't want to hijack this thread but it does seem to be going in a different sort of direction, so here's another little nudge in that direction

 Let's try another rule question


Line drive hits off the pitching rubber, goes up in the air, and is caught by the 1st baseman in foul territory.

What's the call?

And another one that happened to us earlier this season

Batter bunts the ball up the 1st base line. He drops his bat and it is in fair territory. The bunt rolls and hits the dropped bat and goes into foul territory.

What do you have on this play?

What are you looking for?

Anything in particular you want to see?

For me I want them to immediately find 5 guys on the line and give them time to gel

Interested in who is getting reps behind Singletary

Who is getting reps at the wr spots

And how the back 7 is going to shake out

This.  All day This!
