Tim, you know damn well the only committed students at EMU are traveling each weekend at speech tournaments, where they forgo the thrill of watching college athletics to visit scenic locales like Peoria, Bowling Green, and Bloomington.

I agree, the schools shouldn't be cutting the checks. That's why I don't understand their insistence that athletes not be able to make money on their own. If Nike wants to pay AJ McCarron to endorse their products in a commercial filmed outside of the school year and Bryant-Denny Stadium, they should. If anything, the…

The biggest sticking point, both from CAPA and other previous lawsuits, is in allowing athletes to make money off their likeness outside of their respective team. It'd cost no extra money from schools as it would be provided by private businesses. It would mean that the NCAA Football video game series could be…

Muschamp: After hearing first-hand reports, we're confident the window will be a centerpiece of our offensive line years to come.

Unfortunately, Chuvashev came to an untimely and violent demise when the harness operator gleefully slammed him into the top of the M, as he thought Chuvashev would easily fit but was actually off by one space.

It's annoying to Americans because it's also called soccer in Canada, South Africa, and Australia, yet curiously they seemingly never get any guff over it. Also, as it has happened countless times here on Kotaku, it invites some idiot who's obviously never watched more than a minute of gridiron/American football to…

In keeping with the theme and locale, the United States just announced Max Payne as their official World Cup mascot.

Creepy or not, WuShock Ain't Nuthing ta Fuck Wit

That red jersey is misspelled on the front. It should read "gamers."

We laugh now, but see what happens when nobody believes a little girl's story that she was chased by a "spaghetti-faced man with green ears" through the south Louisiana woods.

This is far less horrifying than the last video they made of a Playmate's ass getting destroyed by Big Bertha.

How much wood could a Boychuck chuck if a Boyhuck got chucked into wood?

A national broadcaster shouldn't be expressing commentary about the physical appearance of women 40+ years his minor who have nothing to do with the game in the first place. Also, how it is Orwellian? That would imply that Musburger be forced to use a word in a way that it doesn't actually mean. And yeah, it does have…

The definition you posted still fits Tim's description. If Brent or another old, male broadcaster expressed similar feelings towards a young college male on television, it'd be universally deemed creepy as hell and he'd almost certainly get reprimanded if not suspended. Likewise, he typically makes follow-up comments…

And here I thought the media and internet commenters were only interested in prominent catfights.

Don't worry, in 2017 they're going to have some killer chants about the Palins.

True, and the other major factor here are real estate developers. Having worked in and advised for local elections on both coasts, I can tell you that they swing a big bat in any major municipality, regardless of political affiliation. In fact, usually they're the reason why a new stadium proposal dies if it does at…

Analytically, it's difficult to ascertain whether a single issue like a pro team skipping town tilts local elections or not. Anecdotally, however, there really aren't any high-profile politicians who've lost over a team leaving, certainly not recently. Even in Seattle, where the Sonics debacle was made a campaign…

That's a reasoned, level, cogent point to make that doesn't denigrate an entire population. Personally, I think it'd be best to go on a case-by-case basis or to create a trans* category in athletic competition (which would also benefit FTM athletes). Unfortunately, there's lots of people here who aren't making these…
