    Just means we use the never-punt strategy.

    These are not the circumstances under which I would like to see the punt way less strategy implemented. Ben is extremely good at his job and there are situations where his skills are needed. Our coaching staff, like virtually every other coaching staff at every level of football, just happens to believe that those situations are more common than they actually are.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    I say we use the CFL strategy and get a first down in 2 plays every time.

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.

    Kickoffs are just as important, he is the only one that can boot it in the back of the end zone.

    Any idea who the backup punter is?

    Also...did he get hurt when he made the touchdown-saving tackle in the 2nd quarter?

    If you wore the uniform...you're a champion.

    I have not heard/seen it mentioned anywhere but that was a really athletic, impressive play he made stopping that return man. It's too bad they scored a TD there anyways because that was a great effort on Ben's part.

    I'd say put Chase out there and let him run fakes, ala Matt Voitlander.
