Sorry off topic for most fans

The Russian winter stopped the unimpeded onslaught of Barbarossa, which slowed the Nazi’s ability to re-supply. This bought the Soviets time to manufacture thousands of T-34 tanks and stamp out hundred of thousands of PPSH sub-machine guns to replace some bolt action Mosin-Nagants.

You do make some good points though. If Chip Kelly was in charge of the blitzkrieg we would all be speaking German. He would have by-passed Stalingrad and advanced to Moscow. Check freaking mate!!

Does anyone remember Quincy making a play this year? Myron Lewis? Arrelious Benn? There’s a lot of Weeds that shoulda been plucked already

And I’d care what some Vodka slosher thinks about it

It must hurt your brain when the Amen Chorus is not singing in perfect harmony.

Joseph Stalin continually purged his military, shooting his general staff. When Hitler ordered Operation Barbarossa, there was no one capable of defending the Soviet Union. Luckily the Russian winter stopped the blitzkrieg or we might all be speaking German.

First Dominik purged the heart and soul of this team when he fired Brooks, Gruden, Dunn and the others. Then Schiano purges the DL and depth the team had acquired. Another purge and they will be as defenseless as Stalin was.

An interesting note: the Soviet’s plan was to send the troops into battle with only one weapon for two soldiers expecting the initial casualty rate to exceed 50%. Anyone who did not move forward, armed or not, into the abyss was executed.

Maybe, since the Little General, who seems to be a student of military history will issue only 12 helmets since only 11 are used at a time. That makes as much sense as his yearly purges.
