RTT Podcast Tonight at 9:00: Whatever Will We Talk About?

Free for all tonight, y'all. The whole gang (we think) will be on the 'cast tonight to talk about all things orange. Lady Vols, men's basketball, MTSU, pants, hair, pants made of hair and used as a backboard by the Blue Raiders' men's and ladies' teams. Whatever.

If you're listening live tonight at 9:00 PM Eastern, follow along in the comments below with your questions and thoughts.  Here's the pertinent info:

You can listen live by clicking the sometimes magic orange widget below. Or you can wait, download it later, and listen to it in your car on the way to work tomorrow.

I'm waiting for the official release.

I started on 1.5, but the updates are coming too fast to keep starting new survival maps.

Nope...

Honestly haven’t played that much lately, been doing edumacational stuff and testing Crusader Kings 2.

Sounds like an absolute pain of an achievement.

Really waiting on 1.9 to restart my server...

Started a 1.8 server, and we’ve got a train that takes like 5 minutes from one end to the other that I hate to rebuild… but outside of one abandoned mine and a couple of deep canyons there are none of the new features. Haven’t seen fortress or town #1.

by Caban on Nov 1, 2011 8:43 PM EDT up reply actions  

The strongholds are pretty cool.

They’d be a lot of fun for team-vs-team on a server.

Can't wait...

using DynMap, which is freaking amazing.

Check out the real time map… you can even change to a cool isometric view by hovering over the right edge of the screen and selecting the solid green block.

What the heck

Is that thing around -400 -330?

Yeah.

Trying to set up a shoot-down toward a skeleton spawner. Probably the only way to get it.

don’t want to walk on the Lady Vols thread. Is that over?

Spurrier isn’t just smart enough to take advantage of what works, he’s smart enough not to do what obviously won’t work. Which has been a lot because of his QBs at SC.

we lost 4-2, but I saw a rookie get his first ever goal right in front of me, so that was cool.

Your Bolts are being ridiculously streaky

I did enjoy watching Stamkos last Thursday, though. I still have a hard time believing the kid is only 21

by jfarrar90 on Nov 1, 2011 10:32 PM EDT up reply actions  

I know

today, we didn’t even show up the first two periods. Outshot 16-7 in the first. Dominated the third, but it was too little too late. Way too much of that “only play 1-2 periods” nonsense this season. Happened early last year too though, and that ended up okay. Still, it’s worrisome. Offense played great against the Preds, but defensive discipline is HUGE problem. Also, Pekka.

Brett Connolly was great today though, and him getting his first goal was special.

The Preds are used to getting outshot.

It’s happened in every game but one.

Hopefully Stevie Y gets some help for your D. Might need a better backup goaltender, because Garon won’t cut it. Us having Pekka is definitely nice. I’m one of the few who would prefer him re-signed over Weber and Suter, if I had to pick between the three. The guy is clutch.

by jfarrar90 on Nov 1, 2011 10:53 PM EDT up reply actions  

Garon has actually been really solid so far this year

that game was his worst of the season by a large margin.

The D was really bad to start last year too, and it drastically improved when we traded for Brent Eric Brewer right before the deadline. Not sure what to do it about it now. There are rumors that we’re looking for a top four defenseman, but I’m not sure what we can afford to give up. Matthias Ohlund is also on IR right now, so he’ll be back at some point.

Ohlund out definitely hurts.

I didn’t realize that Garon was actually playing well. I was used to him and Steve Mason rotate in and out of goal in Columbus with neither of them able to get a foothold on the job.

by jfarrar90 on Nov 1, 2011 11:13 PM EDT up reply actions  

I can see how he'd be iffy as the #1 guy

but he’s been pretty solid as a #2. He actually started four consecutive games culminating in the Preds loss. The first three were 4-1 over the Isles, 3-0 over the Sabres, and 4-3 over the Sabres. Was nice to give Roli a rest. And, to be honest, I’m not sure what he could’ve done last Thursday. The defense was TERRIBLE. And he was still laying on the ground on one goal after the scorer knocked him over.

O/T

The Lady Vols shot a technical foul before the opening tipoff tonight. Evidently, Carson-Newman failed to get their starting lineup submitted to the officials in time.

It was 1-0 when they threw the jump ball.

If they continued to score at that pace

All right, so here's the plan

Complete a pass for 20 yards + 15 yard personal foul on defense = one untimed down to kick your FG. Boom.
