That bugs the hell out of me. Seriously, didn't these most of these guys earn journalism majors? I teach college in a different field, and even then promptly correct any of my students that ask "questions" like this because it's incredibly rude and unprofessional to do so in everyday contexts. These journos are paid…

This casting decision is hugely offensive to me.

Given how things went the last time a public university in Ohio tried to militarily suppress a student gathering, this is actually an improvement.

If you could have an unassuming, humble, and reasonable article on men's suit fashion I would love you forever for it. I don't know if it's the younger generations' obsession with "eclectic" but for the love of all that is holy it's gotten out of hand. Bowties for occasions/professions that don't call for them and…

Fluff and nonsense masquerading as "edgy" takes on sporting topics that were discussed 20 years ago by more talented writers ("the MLS is a sham league and a poor imitation of its European counterparts!" "The wild card cheapens the value of a title!") is all Billy Haisley does.

I'm with you. The Hornets are a great example of how it's oftentimes the shade of the color, rather than the color itself, that matters. They toned down the teal and purple to make it more understated than the neon shades of the 90's and made it look great. The Raptors could have kept the purple but made it less…

Finishing an incredible Christmas Eve bowl like that with a fucking fade route is like closing the Sugar Plum Fairy's Cavalier with a fart.

I actually once worked with college football players in how to handle media questions, and the mantra was always the same: be bland, be forgettable, be short, and be polite. Any type of substantive answer could easily get spun into a manufactured controversy that will only cause you to receive more questions and your…

No, the cops are dead because a psychotic nutjob shot them. That's it. Al Sharpton (who's never advocated for violence against police, has strenuously noted that the majority of cops are good, and immediately condemned these killings ) is not. He's certainly no more responsible than Cliven Bundy was for the deaths of…

Well, at least his motor is intact.

Sure the professor can take that $4 refund, but a little while later he's just going to want more.

Oh ok, so HGH users are fine then? Guys like Jose Canseco's stats pre-1990 are totally legit? And all the other guys who took various other legal PED cocktails not involving anabolic steroids are also fine? By your standard, the anabolic steroid users are the only ones who need be punished. Applying spitball was…

#2 nails it. The really unfortunate part is that you now have writers openly punishing an entire generation of players regardless of whether they took PED's or not. There was some jackhole last year who only voted for Morris for this reason. Jeff Pearlman came out and said there's "no way" that Biggio wasn't aware of…

You believe that taking PED's in an era when they were neither illegal nor tested is a failure of integrity and sportsmanship that should supersede all of their on-field accomplishments, and act as if that's a universal truism when it is not by any means. Just as greenie users, or notorious ball-doctors, or racist…

FSU struggled mightily against those defenses and Oregon's is still better than Georgia Tech's. Also, avanced metrics ratings place Stanford above all of those including FSU, and Oregon lit them up. UCLA and Utah both also have talented defenses with guys who will play on Sundays, and Oregon had little trouble…

If you think Oregon's defense in any way resembles Georgia Tech's, or that PAC-12 teams don't have speed, then you must not watch much west coast football.

And a mediocre undefeated team didn't get a #1 ranking simply because they're a legacy program and/or in a P5 conference? Holy shit, this is already better than previous years!

If FSU wasn't the reigning national champions, I think they'd likely be left out so the CFP Committee could send a message of "don't dick around for 3 quarters against inferior competition every game and expect to coast in like the BCS days" (and maybe also as a "fuck you" to programs who don't think local law…

It's not that hard to understand. The committee is ranking who they think are the best 4 teams in the country. Being undefeated does not mean you're #1, or even in the top 4. That's to prevent stupid shit like Notre Dame getting in the 2013 BCS title game, even though they were clearly not among the top 2 teams in the…
