Pretty sure all the husbands (including the father to be) plan to just hang out in another room and drink beer lol.
Well ... that sounds OK then.

Frost was just asked on Gameday "where is the team at in 'the process'?" 

"Well, we are where we are. Somewhere between where we were and where we're gonna be." 

Thanks, coach. :smiley_confused1:

I think it would make me dizzy. Probably not interested in watching a game like that. Breaking down film? Sure. But I'm not a coach.
The dizzy part is fair. I don't know that one needs to be a coach, but I think if one watched a game in a different way, it would change the understanding of things. This is how I see each view, pluses and minuses.

Standard view
Good: We're used to it, stable-ish camera, you know how far the ball goes downfield on a given play.
Bad: On any given play, we have no real sense of what is happening for most of the defense and really a lot of the offense. The O-line is flattened, the back end is a mystery. 

All-22
Good: You get a real sense of the space and what's going on all over. Like is no receiver is open, you know that. If every defender is in the box, you can see it rather than have to count. 
Bad: You are very far away and lose some of the detail. It's actually not a moving camera, so that doesn't hurt, but you might have to squint, and it removes some of the character. 

Skycam madden view (up and behind QB)
Good: You have a sense of how run games work. Like you see holes, you see defenders, you see some of what the QB sees on passing plays. It solves the O-line fattening. 
Bad: The camera moves some and people don't like that. You also don't have a great sense of how far downfield the ball goes, which is a big annoyance. 

Overhead
Good: You see things developing like plays. There's a sort of cleanness to it. 
Bad: That cleanness costs a lot of details, as its just dots pushing other dots, plus the vertical is just lost.

Anyway, I'm always curious. I kinda like skycam, maybe all-22, but I'm a nerd.

Great coach speak.  He's no Spurrier of course, but nobody else is anyway.

Dumb questions merit trite responses.  Unless you are SOS.

Probably missing out on most of the early games before heading up to my brother’s place for a USC @ Washington watch party he’s hosting with his USC Grad school buddies. Bringing cat and doggie treats so the pets aren’t left out of all the fun.

News to me, and if I were invited to one, I wouldn't go. I'd answer "NO" before the question was done.

Get off my lawn.

In Charlotte for the weekend for my friends' baby shower (the friend who moved from San Diego at the beginning of this year). He's a Boilermaker, and the couple who joined at the TCU game two weeks ago flew down here too.

Going that after the shower is over, we can find a sports bar and watch the minny game.

Who tf makes a couples baby shower? When did that become a thing?
I'd mail a gift or check cross country,maybe fly when a child is born but for a little fru-fru,fluffy get together I dunno.Unless he's a fellow brewer and was breaking out his Oktoberfest

Well, on the bright side we got to hang out with them for an extended time last night, will do so after the shower today, and possibly even tomorrow before we have to head to the airport. So we didn't fly out here *just* for the shower. That would be silly.
