Thoughts so far

This is a game of field position. Punt coverage is great.

Our defense is playing very well.

Grady has the arm but is woefully inaccurate.

Akron's FG kicker is terrible

I think he’s only 3 of 10 for the season. 6-0 at halftime. Great

Mike, I assumed you lived in the area.

Home games are on Comcast. I was actually planning on going out to DeKalb (it’s like a 30 minute drive) but I woke up with a cough and decided against it. Man, would I have been extremely annoyed with that halftime score had I been there.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

And here, I watched the entire game and forgot it wasn't on Comcast.

It’s on WPRD today.
