Come on guys enough is enough..... These girls are daughters for crying out loud! How dare all of you, I hope you don't have daughters, let alone children! ;)
Could not agree more! We should not objectify these intelligent young professionals. How about posting pictures of them in their business attire like say:

See now that's how we should, um, we should, should...
...you know what I'm just going take a little break and be back in a bit.

[QUOTE="David 76, post:
I think KO recommended him. AB is 100% positive and 110% ten toes in.[/QUOTE]

Which is 11 toes in.

I wonder if Amida being named captain is more about pushing Amida to step up to a different level, to see himself as a leader and to carry the weight of high expectations. I initially thought it was an odd and surprising choice, and now I hope it was not too much, too soon. But, as always, trust in KO to guide the ship.
While it may have that effect, I do not believe Brimah was appointed captain by Coach Ollie. The team voted. Coach potentially naming a third capt. doesn't necessarily indicate how the first two were selected.

I kind of thought this role went to a UConn student, is this new chick at least a grad student or anything or she's just hired as a professional on screen reporter? Just from having seen her in the first night vid, I think she has a future. I'll always have a soft spot for Noonan, but this chick has it, she's very natural and engaging on camera and I mean that in a completely innocent manner, I think she has a future in sports reporting

Noonan will always have a special spot in my heart. Erika will have to work hard, but I don't see her obtaining or surpassing Emily's aurora.

I agree completely. She comes across as a really smart young woman who knows her and is prepared. Emily was a tad ditsy, Erika is a definate upgrade.

I haven't seen an answer yet, but does anyone know where Emily Noonan went?
If only she knew what a celebrity she was on here .

Appears to be more behind the scenes. Probably creeped out by the attention she gets on here.

What is the scale that 5.5 refers? I get '10 toes in' (which is 1.818181818... more). It must be somehow related to Spinal Tap's '11' ? but less than a Hilty unit.

Damn Amida, wake up.
I'm guessing he was distracted by his internal dialog.

You know I'll bet I could hit that.
[Answers question]

I mean she's paying me an awful lot of attention to me.
[Answers question]

You idiot Amida! It is her job to pay attention to you, it means nothing!
[Answers question]

.... Nah, she wants it, I can tell.
[Answers question]

That's right ask me another question you frisky little minx!. Oh yeah, she wants me...

Could this be a possible indicator that Brimah will go pro in 2015.
A great year from him and there is little incentative to return.

I didn't hear about the voting...are you sure? That would be a better way to do it.

Isn't a "5" like total effort, all the time?

Last year was a 5. You have to keep improving.
Level 5 = national champion effort. Level 5.5 is back to back national champions effort.

Not positive, but I believe that's the way it's been done. I'm pretty sure I've read that somewhere.
