Didn’t you hear? Texas and OU are going to the SEC. So they’re off the table.

I’d go with Baylor, Texas Tech, Kansas, and Nebraska. That would make the PAC16 better in football and basketball.

What will you do when Brewer throws a bad interception? Who will you like then? Every QB is going to throw on eventually. I mean, Tom Brady has thrown some terrible INTs…

If this were to happen, what should the PAC12 do? Snag two of the Texas schools (i.e. Baylor and TT)?

Fu and I are the same age. Our freshman year we were next door neighbors in the old dorms. Most people don’t know that he was super homesick that first year. He was putting up big numbers on the field in spite of that. When he wasn’t playing football or studying, he mostly played Hawaiian folk music on the guitar in the dorm common area. He…[Read more]

Just flag the fights. Then coaches will take it upon themselves to make sure there’s no fights.

I wasn’t aware that this was even an issue. Was there some massive fight over this that I missed? Or is this a solution looking for a problem?

^This.

In general (again, there are exceptions) we lost players in positions where we were deep and gained players in positions where we were thin. So if you were to lose a player in a deep position, and pick up a player of equivalent ability in a thin position, you’d call it a win even if the trade was a “net zero” from an ability point of…[Read more]

Honestly, you’ll probably get better-informed answers on Cougarboard. Utah County church members have an unsettling fetish for ice cream.

There’s some pretty amazing kids in this world.

I say hell to the yeah. They’re not quite my bag, but Gen-Z loves shoes like that. My kids would rob a gas station to buy a pair of those.

P.S. You forgot to say “get off my lawn!” 😉

What do you mean “after this year”? There are already mouthbreathers on CB who are saying the streak reset because Utah forfeited last year.

Personally I’m a little puzzled by this pickup:

It’s hard to say, really. If you’re a good player in a college town, you might not have the name recognition of an all-American at Alabama, but you could still do really well with local endorsements. For example, Nick Emery repping the Provo Volkswagen dealer would make some money. Hell, he got a free car…and it wasn’t even legal back then.

Never. Play. BYU-Provo. In. Any. Sport. Again. Ever.

Can there be any doubt what the outcome of that first game will be? You could set your watch to “England loses to Germany on penalties”.

The Spain/Croatia game was mental. You gotta feel good for the much-maligned Alvaro Morata who came up clutch for Spain in OT.

Well, The Czechs just punked the Netherlands. Frank de Boer strikes again.

Crowd control in bike racing – especially the grand tours – is a complete mess and needs a complete overhaul. This isn’t the first incident with a fan taking down a rider and it won’t be the last. And not to be overly dramatic, but I wouldn’t be shocked at all to see a terrorist incident at the TdF in the future, like at the Boston Marathon. It…[Read more]

I hear what you’re saying, but if you have a salary cap, you’ll just have the same problem you have now – the only difference will be where the bar is set.

Or think of it this way: There’s already a salary cap in college athletics, it’s just that the cap is set at zero.

Who will police schools to make sure they’re staying below the cap? And what…[Read more]

This has been an excellent game. Germany being their usual, machine-like, game-controlling selves, while Portugal are devastating on the counter and Cristiano is always an x-factor.

Welcome to the U family, Zion! Now you’d better go charge your phone, bro.
