Fox also has a lot more people than anyone but maybe CBS. NBC, ESPN and NFLN only call one broadcast a week so by pure numbers, of course they are going to have more people on that list.

Is "Plays Off" really the worst thing ever? I mean, I can see what is happening. Unless they are Hawk Harrleson-ing and just not describing anything for a minute, letting me watch the action unfold is actually kind of nice.

Just rename this article "Okay, We Know This is Kind of Racist, but How Black is Duke?"

Yep, totally ready to host a World Cup.

You were pretty Chappa-quick with that one.

Death, taxes and the United States being knocked out by Ghana in a major soccer tournament.

I felt bad for him until the last three words of the second to last paragraph of his letter. After that, I feel ESPN made the right decision.

But is it elite?

"Wade Boggs once drank 64 beers on a cross country flight" was confiscated upon entry at Wrigley Field's gameday for Nerdwestern - Illinois. It had been done before, so I thought I would carry on the tradition.

Silence of the Lambs.

Vidic didn't suffer a concussion. In Mother Serbia, that is just how they say "hello".

"obscuring the potential advantages and positives that this event might spawn"

But, hey, that's $40 dollars and a candy bar you didn't have before.

You think kids get away with this shit at Notre Dame or Stanford? Not saying those kids are saints, but isn't the reason Urban Meyer did not go to ND (before he went to Florida) because he wanted more flexibility academically?

I am not comparing this behavior to sexual abuse of minors, but this is they type of culture that can lead to much bigger issues. When football or any single entity (another sport or even an academic reputation) runs a school (and in the case of Penn State or Florida State, a town) it becomes not only easier, but…

As much as I think A-Rod did do all of this, I do think it is stupid that Selig would not testify.

Not one mention of Thad Castle in this review.
