One Take On Today's Game

Former Dartmouth offensive lineman Jacob Flores '16 – who signed with the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent and spent time on the team's practice squad – today runs the TriadNIL agency with brothers John Paul '22 and Michael '23, themselves former Big Green linemen. The brothers also operate Trench University DFW, offering training for young offensive linemen in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

Here's Jacob Flores' on the Trench social media platform giving his take on today's game, not surprisingly stressing the importance of the play up front:
EXTRA POINT
“There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing.” That saying originated in Scandinavia, where they know a thing or two about cold weather.

I found myself thinking about that yesterday when it was 2 degrees and windy during my daily hike up the mountain and 0 degrees when I got down. Because I knew what was coming, I avoided "bad" clothing, and at no time was remotely uncomfortable.

I have to laugh when I watch the news and people are complaining about it being 25 degrees outside. They shouldn't be complaining about the weather.

They should be complaining about their clothes.
