    Damn. We really need to keep Tristan Holloway involved in our offense this year, as both a target and a decoy. We need to run multiple plays from the same formation with him in the game. Oh yeah, maybe throw Shep in there just to really give DC's some chest pains. It'd be an awful shame if TH had less than 6 or 7 TD's this year.

    Tristan Holloway?

    I assume that was intentional.

    Did someone refer to him that way?

    Sounds like a Charlie-Mac-ism. He twisted players names. He always called Thad Minaldi, "Tad MacNalty".

    Unofficial. Chris Johnson's 4.24 is the fastest official time. Stallworth's official time was 4.26 or 4.28, can't remember exactly. Reggie Bush was 4.33.

    Official times at the combine are electronically timed and don't start until the player starts. There is no starting pistol reaction time or hand timing reaction time to skew the time.

    Of course it was intentional. I'm making fun of all the a-hole commentators who refuse to pronounce his name properly. Pam Ward is the worst one, but they all eff it up. Verne and Gary can't even seem to get it right, and they do LSU games all the time.

    I think Musberger calls him "Halloway" in the 2007 VT game.

    Wasn't that the first game we saw :wave: ?

    For his first name, they either say 'TrindAn' or 'Tristan,' but never 'Trindon.' And I've heard 'Holloway/Halloway' more frequently than 'Holliday.'

    Really, is it that effing hard to pronounce, you effing morons? It's not some foreign name or something.

    Yeah his name is pretty easy.

    I don't get that. Especially the CBS broadcasters.
