I guess you can't please everybody though.
Stop reading my ASAP reports, please.....

I hate it when they make videos like that where they are trying sooo hard to have "diversity" that it just seems condescending to the audience.
The tokenism and race/gender square filling is so blatantly obvious that it ends up making you feel vaguely uncomfortable and sorry for the people participating. Like they are being exploited and their status as a minority is the only reason they were chosen.
Kinda works in reverse from the creator's intent.

That would be a nice feature, increasing SA with less heads down.

meh. Monty was a good coach in his day, and in the NFL. In college, the Tampa 2 was a mediocre defense. As far as Lane being a good coach... ROTFLMAO... he's a good RECRUITER... but he sucks as a head coach. He's failed 3 times (so far).

While it's not politically incorrect to call attention to the obvious, it is probably incorrect to care about something so small and inconsequential. But, to each his own.
