Just how chaotic can a college football schedule get? Virginia is 3-0 in the ACC and 6-1 overall. That one loss was to NC State, fellow ACC-founding team.

Am I crazy to think that once the Heels dig their way out of this Blichick mess that they should go after Franklin? I mean, James Franklin is clearly a great coach and he could do a great job in Chapel Hill. He may not win, or even get them to, a championship game, but at least they would be winning at least 10 games every season.

I was told by an old timey gambler to bet only on an underdog and only then if you feel that they will actually win the game. Also, *never ever* bet on parlays. They are nothing but sucker bets and only chumps put money on them.
When "sports wagering" arrived in NC a year or two ago, I put $100 in an account and have been playing with that money ever since then. I think I'm back up to close to that. But then again, I follow that guy's advice and hardly ever gamble.

Good for him. He still makes a ton of money per season but gives Edmonton 2 seasons to get their shit together and get him and the other stars on the team some real help in other positions. "Can't do it in the next 2 seasons? Later."

LOL. Coach Franklin is sticking around through the end of *that* contract. It's just amazing to me that schools will give out a contract like that. At the very least, there should be some numbers to hit before a coach gets that kind of payout just for getting fired.

That gigantic load hitting the inside of his pants right now is McJesus's agent. Speaking of the Earlers, they have to be the happiest people on this planet for locking up the, arguably, second best player in the NHL for 8 years, $14 million AAV. McJesus will surely get about $21 million per season from *someone*. All that being said, ain't no way is Kaprizov worth $17 million per season.

Panthers game was a shocker. The game stats are insane compared to the outcome.
Wasn't able to watch it today. When I looked at the final score, I was all like, "Bryce must've popped off!" Then I looked at the box score. /sad trombone How does a team score 30 points with only 121 yards in passing and 110 in rushing?

He's 5'10". Maybe he could be a quick n shifty point guard for the Knicks? The dude is helluva of athlete, so who knows.
posted by NoMich at 10:05 PM on September 10, 2025
Well, it is gamble on his part. He is building up a nice history of leg injuries and once those begin, there will be more to follow. However, if he can play the full season, get those 100+ points that we all know he can get, then ka-ching. But if he can't, oh boy, he left a ton of money on the table.

He's been awesome for the Hurricanes and the Caniacs. Our team is now a perennial playoff monster that just hasn't been able to win it all, but man, it was a dark journey to get here. I don't remember the 20teens and nor do I want to. Absolute dreck. Also, he could've been more like David Tepper. whew!
It seems that he has a thing for teams that are red, black, and white and have cyclone-shaped logos.

How's the bus/rail system in downtown Ottawa?
People that live in Raleigh are pining for a downtown hockey arena, but since there is no rail service and a bus service that is somehow worse than the rail situation, I would probably never go to another game. Since at least half of all in attendance don't live in Raleigh itself and most of those that do, live quite a ways from downtown, so it would be a nightmare to get in and out of the arena in a car. Besides, it would mean the death of our awesome tailgate culture that we have going on.

Amazing. And that explains a Bluesky post that I saw yesterday, something along the lines of "takes a drag off a smoke, tells the QB: just get me to our 45 yard line" My internal reaction was that this idiot poster doesn't know the difference between "our" side of the field vs "their" side of the field. Who's the idiot poster now? (me. the answer is me.)
posted by NoMich at 11:11 AM on August 10, 2025
Yeah, he looked good against a terrible defense that should make mediocre QBs around the league look good. He got over that low bar with no problem. So good for him.
I know I'm sounding sarcastic here, but I really am rooting for the kid. I think it would be quite the story if he was the one to lead the Browns to the Super Bowl (but lose to the Lions).

Funny thing is, we already have a cricket field that is the size required to international matches. Problem is, there's hardly any seating and I don't think there's enough space to add more. If we want big time international matches here in the Triangle, this stadium in Chapel Hill needs to be built.

Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups charged in illegal poker operation tied to Mafia
It would be interesting to know if Billups was a habitual gambler during his playing games. Organized crime is very good at getting its hooks into pro athletes that gamble, and lose, a lot. It would be strange thinking if he somehow decided just now to work with a crime syndicate this late in his life.
