I wore it to Prague, and I can testify that Czech people find it hilarious.

Right in the feels. 
To infinity and beyond!!! Did I do that right?
to expand on this point....he could be trying to terminate complacency and if he's outwardly never satisfied that will just continuously push everyone to get better. Could be a motivational ploy, is what I'm sayin'
Having a great summer thus far and having a lot of work left to do are not necessarily mutually exclusive. He could very well be excited by the potential but more work is needed to adapt to the system being installed.

# | What other Cities could the ACC move the Conference Championship Game to. I like the idea but the whole point of this discussion is not having games in NC and almost a third of the teams in the ACC would then be left off the rotation. That idea won't fly in this league. Especially with Swofford at the helm.
That's a complete 180 on what he said at ACC media days???
Not great Bob

I agree. I'm not one who does yoga but lots of people love it, and I've tried to get the older and increasingly achy DadOnATreadmill into it. I've frequently felt that there were physical and athletic...things that our guys could incorporate into their training, like yoga for flexibility and injury prevention, ballet for OL/QB/whoever needs better feet, cattle farming for OL/DL, etc. Lots of offbeat skills could be brought to football.

No, I don't think they would go to a 30,000 seat stadium. But if there were one in the 50-60,000 seat range, that might be a possibility. BoA is 75,412. FedEx is 82,000. Georgia Dome is 74,228. Only having 50-55,000 seats filled in these stadia, or less if BC plays, looks horrible on TV. That makes the ACC, a P5 conference, look horrible to people watching on TV. It makes the ACC look like a G5 conference to the casual observer, which decreases the perception of the programs not named FSU or Clemson.
What I was implying in my post is that the average size of an ACC stadium is much smaller than the stadia the championship games are played in. EverBank is 67,246, so it is closer to the average in the ACC (about 59,000). Having a full stadium would definitely look better on TV and improve the image of the conference.
I, too, have heard success stories of how DDP's yoga and diet program has helped vets and former wrestlers that were practically immobile and/or suicidal. Whether for profit, or not, the dude is doing good work. That should not be mocked.

All I will say is Sit back, relax, and watch as all the negative Nancy's start eating their words. Let the boys have their time in the limelight and soak it all in! Not our job to take it away from them
This is best explanation I've found by just watching a quick video of each play:

Yes- good to know other sites are crowd-sourcing me to fill their content vacuum.

Haha, it's actually pretty close to the truth. Jax is a little more like FL and GA got drunk one night. But honestly I liked the mix when I was there for about 10 years.
A scheduled rotation of conference teams stadiums could work. Wouldn't be any different than the superbowl rotation.
You should watch the video. It's DDP yelling about making UVA football tough. I think he mentioned yoga once. It was horribly edited and produced which made it even more laughable.
I have said it and stand behind it.

# | Virginia Tech Football Recruiting: Bryce Thompson Commits to the Hokies I almost thought it was. Definitely did a double take.
Take aways from this thread:
1) I'm getting really really excited.
2) I'm not well connected.
