My wife had a labral tear in her hip and had surgery. Afterwards we were told that hip replacement surgery was almost an easier choice because the recovery is so easy in comparison.

Really? Ever showed up to a serious job interview in pajamas? Gone on a date in a wife beater and cut-off jean shorts? How you dress actually does matter and is a form of communication. 

I figured it was obvious that I was speaking to the commonly referred to argument of "asking for it" one way or another, usually applied to women who are assaulted and they are then asked that, which is terrible.

Obviously how you dress in specific situations which necessitate it, like a job interview, is entirely different than what you wear when going out with friends to have a fun night, or in a non-"professional" environment in general.

How is the commenter supposed to know what is creepy if it's based on the recipient's thoughts? Do they have to be able to read minds? What one might consider flattering, another might consider "violent speech" or something along those lines. There was a time where things like this seemed more clear-cut as far as what is or isn't appropriate, but it's gotten a lot more confusing as far as what offends people these days.

Agreed that it's impossible to know, but that's the point. If you are commenting about someone else's appearance to them you don't get to choose how they receive it. It's your job to empathize and understand how they may receive what you are about to say. Yes, this isn't necessarily "fair" in the sense that you could be extremely well-meaning and your comment is received negatively but, again, that's not up to you. Many people do get easily offended these days and it makes certain conversations difficult but being empathetic and kind in how you address people usually will prevent those negative situations from happening.

Not being surprised about it and being okay with it or staying silent about it are completely different things. The world is filled with awful people so it should be "expected" in the sense that there will always be those people, but being ridiculed for speaking out about it is also a terrible take.

The idea that one should be able to dress, act or otherwise conduct themselves in any way they wish and have nothing but good consequences is silly

How you dress should have absolutely no impact on how you are treated. End stop. There is no such thing as "asking for it" or any other type of bad behavior that's excused because of how you dress.

How you act is entirely different as actions have consequences. But, again, how you act does not justify someone else responding in a negative way. If you go to a strip club where women are literally taking their clothes off for patrons, it is still not okay to make unwelcome advances on those women. If you wear a bikini to the beach it is not okay for someone to comment on your swimsuit in a creepy manner (and that is determined by the recipient of the comment, not the commenter).

Not watching the video because I'm not that interested, but I work in social media so this is something I do follow in general.

There is nothing wrong with her not liking the creepy side of fame. There is absolutely nothing about being famous that requires her to be okay with people following her who are creepy, send overly sexual messages, or generally act awful towards a young woman. Nobody should be like that and it's not her responsibility to ignore them and accept their behavior as "the norm".

There is absolutely no justification for the behavior of people who don't treat her like a human being, regardless of her approach to social media.

I agree the school admin wants to take the "higher road" here in that they don't want a play to play model, and I also think that recruiting players who want to be here instead of players who just want money will be a good strategy in the long run, but...

Right now, that just means your team won't get the talent it needs to continue competing at the highest levels and will decrease your revenue overall because there will be fewer playoff appearances, potentially, and other big games won't mean as much if you aren't performing as well. They need to figure out a happy medium somehow.

Columbus is a fairly rare case of a major city (2+ million people) that is still somehow a college town where everyone is obsessed with the local school. There are so many other things going on in such a large city that money can be given to that are significantly more important in the grand scheme of things.

Compared to cities like LA, Chicago, Boston, Manhattan, San Francisco, etc, where college football is basically a distraction and not a primary passion for the general public, Ohio State is surrounded by millions of people that care about college football...BUT, compared to cities like Athens, Tuscaloosa, Clemson, College Station, etc, there is an entire large city of wealth and needs that have to be met.

We're in a strange in-between place where we have both millions of people in the immediate vicinity of the school that really care (unlike the largest cities in the country), and our richest fans have many other things to support with their money (unlike the small college towns filled with alumni that have few things other than football to care about, with the schools we are directly competing with for when it comes to NIL).

Kind of crazy that Day has been around since JT...I frequently forget about that. I'd also update to include rushing stats so full production is included as it was a big part of JT and Fields' game.

Day's reputation as a QB coach is legit, and his current system is always going to result in stellar numbers. Hartline's WR room only makes that more of a certainty.

The team will not be held back by the QB next year, just like how it hasn't been held back by the QB in the last 5 years (I'm sure I'll get some disagreement here).

It doesn't matter how you run. If you are in contact with the ground with either your hands or feet (anything else would rule you down at that point) you are still inbounds if no part of your body is touching the ground out of bounds.

Feet are only required when it comes to catching the ball on the side line. He already was a runner.

Between the goal lines gets different treatment than at the goal line.

Between the goal lines gets different treatment than at the goal line.

A striding runner leaves the ground fully with each stride. That is what this means. When running out of bounds you will be airborne for a split second and that's when this would apply.

If you are in contact with the ground, in-bounds, then you are still a live player and the ball can continue to advance.

In case of comparing the odds of the QB in a Day offense vs a QB in a Harbaugh offense, you can't necessarily extrapolate that to mean that one is better than the other.

The QB in Ryan Day's offense is always going to superior numbers over most QBs in the country due to the quality of the program, lack of competition in the conference, and the amount we pass the ball. That supports a stronger Heisman campaign.

A QB in a Harbaugh offense is not asked to do nearly as much and won't put up numbers at the same rate due to the offense he's in. These odds simply show that, while both QBs are on teams that will likely be Top 10 throughout the year which means the team qualifications to be considered (zero or one loss in the regular season pretty much) will be satisfied, one QB is going to have much better numbers.

How Harrison Jr. isn't farther up this list, or at least the first non-QB after Corum is beyond me. At this point the odds list is just a "who plays QB at a school with above-average offense the last few years".

Is it just me or is going after someone 6-1, 185 a bit odd? That seems REALLY small for the type of offense we have considering the long developing plays where you'll have to see over the line, down the field.

Obviously some QBs make it works (Bryce Young, Kyler Murray) but it leans away from what we typically are recruiting.

He had more yards than Boston in 97, not 98.

Question:

Would David Boston be as prolific, or even moreso, in the current offense? I was young at the time when I got to watch him play. His stats are ridiculous considering the era he played in. Is that simply a product of lack of other quality receivers? He had 37% of the completed passes and 43% of the passing yards from Germaine.

It's a good idea to get him off his ass doing nothing. You should call them.

Okudah is the most recent in 2020. Denzel Ward before him in 2018.

What does making a Super Bowl earn? I don't buy OSU runner up shirts from 2006 or 2020. I lament what could have been.

Nobody is arguing about this. The comment was in response to the first poster saying the Bengals weren't "Super Bowl caliber" when they literally JUST played in the Super Bowl...thus proving they were Super Bowl caliber.

With the way NIL is going, Columbus will have a professional football team sooner rather than later. It just won't be in the NFL.

There was a survey done years ago about sports team fandom/allegiance in Ohio and Ohio State was the favorite sports team over like 70% of the state. It was a huge favorite compared to either NFL team in the state.

With the Bengals current success that's probably different but there's no way a third NFL team would have a strong fanbase in a city that's already all-in on the Buckeyes.

Out of the finalists I think Sauce deserves it. Olave and Wilson can duke it out for Offensive ROY but Sauce was arguably the most shut-down corner in the league this year. Olave and Wilson were exceptional but still not Top 5 at their position.

If I was choosing between our guys I'm giving it to Wilson because of his production in his terrible situation.

A Top 10 matchup is always a big game, and when you have to go on the road it's even bigger.

You wouldn't consider a matchup between Bama and UGA in the regular season as a big game (assuming they are both ranked in the Top 10) which is ridiculous.

You've been around here long enough to understand the italics. You're just being a poop in the punchbowl.

Gebbia is expected to be a backup for the Buckeyes

A bit presumptuous as the competition is wide open right now.

If both of the next OSU QBs are throwing for 4000 yards and 40+ TDs and beating Michigan, why are any of us arguing who the "worst" of them is?

Stroud's legacy is currently "the best passing QB in school history, didn't beat Michigan, and happened to play with two of the worst defense Ohio State has fielded in 20+ years". He gets some blame, deservedly, but if you look at his stats in the games people will remember he played, at worse, very well.
