Calzada starting over Cutter to start the season was/is malpractice. It’s amazing how our inept receiving corps, who couldn’t get any daylight early on, are suddenly running free and the ball is being spread around. They look pretty good with an actual legit QB.
It’s also a different WR group, tbf. We went from Fred Farrier and the TEs to Law, the Millers, and a little bit of Gilmore

One of the deadliest snakes in the word - the common krait - which kills 10K people per year - has a bite that you can't really feel. So you just get bit, and then you die 8 hours later. WTF is that about?

Is Bush Hamden learning/becoming better? Or has Stoops just decided, with nothing to lose, to say, "**** it." and has stayed out of the way?
It does seem that he has loosened the reins quite a bit and is letting ole Bush do his thing. Probably due to the fact that he has finally recruited a dynamic QB who sees the field, makes quick decisions, commands the pocket and can run when things break down.
It’s refreshing to watch a QB who isn’t a one read QB, but goes through his progressions quickly. Even Levis was primarily a one read QB and I was a Levis fan. We had better get ready to throw a bag at Boley because the competition is going to be stiff in the offseason.

Maybe, but it's still a really good movie.
Little things bother me, like the poster. How did he get the poster to stick back to the wall after crawling through the hole head first? Also, the whole time Andy was at Shawshank, they never did a room inspection? It seems to me they would have ransacked his room after the whole Tommy ordeal and/or the opera singing incident.

I don't know. Color me skeptical.

Stephen King wrote the source material so plot holes and flimsy logic are going to be fairly common.

Hemingway and King... The fascination with those two makes me shake my head in bewilderment.

JFC. What movie would hold up under that type of scrutiny? A really f^*,ing boring one, that’s what.

Once the external wall was perforated, it would have created an air pressure imbalance. Which would cause an air current to flow from the cell (higher air pressure) to the lower air pressure (outside of the cell), compounded by the small size of the hole (which would act as a crude "compressor") and would create a mild suction on the poster, helping it to re-seal to the wall with only minimal help from behind.

Somebody wasn't paying attention during fluid dynamics.

you must have only watched the movie once because the Warden and Henley did a surprise inspection of his bun. Andy was asked about his chess pieces and he quoted scripture from the Bible the Warden found that had the rock hammer hidden in the pages. The poster I’ll allow you.

Resticking a poster to the wall is unbelievable - but creating a large enough opening in a steel pipe for a human to fit through with a small rock and then crawling through 200 yards of human feces without double pink eye and contracting severe dysentery that would’ve left him immobilized the next day is fine. Got it.

That was before the Tommy incident and the opera fiasco.

Another thing, why not get another rock hammer from Red after the other was worn down? Seeing Red is a man who can get things, a new hammer would've expedited the process.

Plus, when he busted the pipe, all that **** water came spewing out. But when he inspects the pipe before crawling in, there's no **** water.

When that prison was built, it was more likely that the sewage pipe was made of clay or "orangeburg" not cast iron.

If that pipe HAD been metal, the spark would have ignited the methane gas in that pipe and obliterated Andy. LOL

That brings up the ACTUAL problem. Andy would have suffocated from the methane gas LONG before he reached the end of that pipe. No getting around that one.

Escape from Shawshank via sewer main? Not plausible.
