    I don’t like blocking anyone on Twitter. Everyone is entitled to their opinions and I don’t really like to dictate how they can or cannot express those opinions, or what channels they can use to give me feedback.

    Best analysis I’ve seen of subtick movement here, worth a read if you have concerns about movement.

    I do not follow college football, but I am watching the huskies play Stanford now and I have a couple questions: - how can a team be 7-0 but ranked 5th? - how can a team that is 7-0 struggle so much against a team that is 2-5?
