We have a family upstairs with a Zumba-loving mother during the day, and a child aged about 8 who is apparently training for a marathon at night. We’ve had to complain to building management three times already. It finally seems to be stopping, thank God.

I don’t watch anything anymore but SEC on CBS regularly seemed to go well over 4. Granted that’s basically the NFL.

Dude, big college games regularly run four hours plus. I dropped football entirely, NFL included, but come on.

I bailed after the Steelers loss in January and seeing the scores every week has done nothing to change my mind.

Marvin could go 7-9 four years in a row and not get fired

I see. Those were VERY illegal when I was in college. Fire hazard and all that. Didn’t stop some people, though.

Wait, there are dorm rooms where you can boil a pot of water???

Coaching staff bloat is clearly a major issue if “Special Teams Quality Control Coach” is actually a thing. The Bills have 28 coaches. That’s one for every 1.857 players on the roster.

The only sport I still feel the need to watch is NASCAR, and there’s a stream of it on YouTube every week. I follow baseball on the radio, have dropped football and WWE is on Hulu. I’ve cut the cord and don’t regret it one bit.

Bingo. The season is such a long grind, and culminates with a sprint to the finish where a hot 83-win team can win the championship. So much can happen. This hot-take, “whatever happened yesterday is and forever will be the Truth” NFL prognosticator bullshit coming from otherwise intelligent Reds fans online today is

It took me until this past season (2016) to finally get over the Reds’ collapse in the 2012 NLDS. And that was just the Division Series. It finally felt like they had a team that could win it all, and it went away in just three days. 2013 was just a hangover from 2012, 2014 was torpedoed by injury and 2015 was just

There’s a lot of Reds fans ready to play in traffic after last night. “The Cubs will be division champs for the next 10 years. Theo is God. The Reds are awful and stupid. Blah blah blah.” Here’s the thing, though: teams are dynasties until they aren’t. You think you know what’s going to happen then things change. As

I believe that as a private business they should be able to have their logo be whatever they want it to be. However, here in Oregon I’ve seen two people total walking around with the Wahoo cap (compared to tons in Cubs gear) and I never failed to think, “man, what an asshole” when I saw them. And one of them was about

In high school I had a classmate who insisted he should be in the Hall of Fame because “most hits in the ‘90s.” I couldn’t get him to see that while that’s nice it really doesn’t mean shit.

One of the first big things that turned me off about the Premier League (at least before Aston Villa wasn’t in the league anymore, anyway) was when Gareth Bale was leaving Tottenham. The UK press was all “he deserves this chance to go to Madrid! He’s earned it!” As if Spurs fans were supposed to be happy he “deserves”

Along these lines, Marvin Lewis would have throw Mike Brown’s grandchildren off the Roebling bridge to get fired. Mike Brown kept Dave Shula after he went 11-37 in his first three years and kept Bruce Coslet after his clubs had a 7-28 run (Coslet actually had to QUIT to get out of that job). Additionally Marvin had

Shoemaker’s kind of full of crap a lot of the time. Meltzer or bust if you want wrestling (and MMA) news.

This is a symptom of there being 16 more primetime games than there used to be. Every team that isn’t a total dumpster fire is bound to get 3 or 4. Add to that the unpredictability of parity, 20 teams being somewhere between 7-9 and 9-7, injuries, etc...

it’s like watching an episode of Quantum Leap but it’s real life and everyone else can see him, too

The guy still rocking the Carson Palmer Bengals jersey is the real criminal here.
