Upon taking the wheel of Oregon State, Andersen reportedly ran off several popular scholarship players. I’m not naive, it’s what new coaches do, but it’s unseemly and certainly got Andersen off to a poor beginning.

A bunch of gobbledygook. Nowhere in there did I read any mention of writers/contributors making more (if any) money.

Yep!

It’s ironic that Joe Girardi—master of the 4-hour game—was worried about the rhythm of the game.

Coach Petersen was grandstanding when he made that comment. He knows damn well why the games start so late—money. If he wants to forfeit some of his $4.8 million a year salary, then he can talk.

During his stint as Tigers president, Bo Schembechler actually fired Harwell, but fans protested so much that Harwell got his job back.

Pitino is unbelievably sleazy, even by big-time college basketball standards. A greedy, unethical and shameless pig.

OMG! What if there’s another hurricane in Florida. How will I know if Jimmy Johnson’s yacht is safe?

Precisely. You just described my monthly medical routine, but at least I have transportation to the clinic and pharmacy.

Hey man,, haven’t you watched “Father Was A Fullback” starring Fred MacMurray? That’s what college athletics are all about!

I disagree with you on the Siamese twins take. PLENTY of people in America would be outraged that one of the twins masturbated, i.e. Pence, Joel Osteen, Pat Robertson and the like. They would see it as another example of a world gone mad etc.

Thank God for outlets like Deadspin that address the real issues of the NFL in 2017. Over at ESPN, FOX and NBC, and with radio hosts like Rome, Cowherd and Mike and Mike, it’s business as usual—that is 100 percent focused with on the field activity. Instead of eating lobster with Peter King, Goodell should be…

And naturally, all the proudly ignorant FOX News idiots will lap this shit up. Cowher’s agent, I’m sure, is already fielding multiple calls from producers wanting Cowher on their Monday talk shows.

When did New England hire Rob Ryan as defensive coordinator? I must have missed it.

I agree. The real takeaway, again, is that these people have everything and are miserable as fuck. That Trump’s followers—especially Evangelicals—still find these people delightful is truly pathetic.

“As in media and politics, the NFL values the opinion of its redneck fans more than any other subset of fans. Why? Fuck if I know.”

Calling these guys “commissioners” is an incorrect job description. They are CEOs pure and simple.

You can start by calling it an exhibition game, not a “preseason” game. The NFL came up with the word preseason in the late 1960s as a euphemism for exhibition. The latter word made the games sound unimportant. 

I’m now ashamed to admit that I habitually read Eyes On The Prize, which is all things Montreal Canadiens. SB Nation, it turns out, pretty much sums up modern society: cheap or unpaid labor helping rich assholes get richer. Then again, many of the same people getting screwed by the system wag their index fingers at…

Keep watching that FOX News
