    I honestly don't believe Canada knows how to use some of the offensive weapons he has effectively. From our big TE to Calvin Austin to Allen Robinson. He's more concerned about the players fitting his playbook than he is about the playbook being tweaked to fit his players.

    He's touched the ball 4 times this year. One return he didn't screw up, one he toe-tapped at the 8, costing us 32 yards, and the one pass he's caught he fumbled when he got his clock cleaned. How could he have "a couple of nice returns before the fumble"?

    I remembered it incorrectly. It was one nice return, 24 yards on the free kick after the safety.

    He has touched the ball more than four times. You forgot fair catches.

    Maybe he can’t catch the ball

    That part is important

    Not catching the ball on punts may be better than gunner doing whatever gunner does

    "You can kiss it goodbye". He and Roberto had a good relationship. Clemente gave him his Silver Bat he received from winning the 61 batting title. I think upon Roberto's death he gave it back to his son, but that I'm foggy on now, been a long time.

    I had to remove a console TV like that from my parents house. I can say with certainty that the Zenith method caused my injury!

    He did return kicks at one point. You are correct though. Just wish the team could use someone else.... anyone else.

    My mom and dad loved their Zeniths!

    My Grandfather had an RCA that had the TV, a record player, and a storage area built into the console. It took up a whole wall! :lolol:

    My Uncle did the same , and on his He had a remote control that used a red light sensor that actually changed the channel. It actually turned the knobs somehow from the inside. You could watch the knob turn, and hear the chunk, chunk sound as it turned. This was like 1975, or 76. When I tell people this they don't believe Me.

    Wow my Dad had a separate record player, 8 track tape player and a radio and it was the size of chest freezer and you opened it just like that. I remember listening to Readers Digest chrimstas records and the frank sinatra 8 track leading up to Christmas every night. Good times!!

    Wow, I built a Ham morse code station from a radio shack kit, but a TV?? Mine was pretty simple, color coded wires, plug together, ground and turn on, lol. Had some good times and contacts on 10 to 80 meters, until I got a letter from the American Radio Relay league, my radio was fine, but I did not know how to properly cut my antenna, so I broadcasting in frequencies I was not licensed in. Nothing major, just stupid youth.

    I missed that post, that's amazing!! I used to love as a kid when we went to the mall to go into radio shack since it had all kinds of stuff. Remember the battery club at radio shack, ha!!

    I built a digital alarm clock kit when digital was new
    I loved it and 40 years later in my workshop it still keeps on going
    But after a week of it waking me up for work I started to despise it

    That's funny I bought a digital clock at Hills Department Store for $4.95 in 1982 and it lasted until last year. My son was using it for school. I would hear it sometimes from our room and I would get that dread feeling!! My Ti-35 solar calculator just died to that I had since the late 80's to.

    I wonder why they took punt returns from Austin. He was doing it in preseason when both of them were healthy.

    McFarland could be back returning kickoffs soon.
