The fourth chapter in Bobby P’s playbook concerns zone blocking. You hear the term on the weekends and you nod your head, but you have no idea what they’re talking about. In fairness, the talking heads probably don’t know either. Read this and you will know. ————————————————————————————– Eleven Is there anything more beautiful than seeing…

I confess that this is not an original idea, but I’m doing it anyway. I’ve had all sorts of thoughts about teams and games in my head that I just haven’t been able to put down on paper … er computer screen … so, they can all go here instead. 1. Florida State – They…

I upgraded to DirecTV a few months ago largely because I wanted a TiVo. Great decision; I love it and I only spend about $5 more per month than I did before. With two little boys, I don’t get to watch nearly as much live sports as I’d like, so watching them later is damn…

I never got around to discussing the first week’s games. Then, I never got around to previewing the second week’s games! I guess I suck. To avoid that happening again this week, I’m going to do my review first thing. Here goes… Boston College 44 – Army 7 – You know, I really have a…

It’s time for a second round of Name That Site. Since the game’s still new, I’m keeping it fairly easy. Just take a look at the pic below (click for a larger version) and tell me what ACC-significant site it is (I’ve airbrushed over the really obvious clues). First one to get it right wins…

This week’s edition of Eleven concerns the Cover Two, a base defense that was mentioned in last week’s zone blitz article. Once again, Bob has a lot of great information for you, so read slowly (something that should come easily for you Virginia Tech fans… I keed, I keed!) By the way, if you have…

I can’t believe opening weekend of college football is here! Normally, I would have been getting fired up all week and would have put out a decent preview. Instead, I’ve been watching and reading about the troubles in New Orleans and Mississippi. Kind of makes football seem insignificant, huh? That distraction led to my completely…

Bob Pentland is back for his first lengthy football piece, where he discusses the trendy zone blitz. As expected, Bob is dropping some serious knowledge here. Your assignment is to read this and see if you can’t spot the real thing this weekend as the college season kicks off. Maybe you can impress your buddies…

Is there any interest in being in a free Dave Sez fantasy football league? I’ve “run” one for my office for years, but there aren’t really enough avid sports fans here to do that anymore. I’m in one league, but could handle another. If you are interested (and I’m thinking of using this new site),…

Just the other day, I finally decided to download and play with Google Earth. Man, what a cool program. I could play with it for hours. Actually, I think I already have. If you haven’t tried it yet, go get it. It’s free. So anyway, after playing with it for a while, I had an…
