Team USA could use your expertise. Also, I have yet to see a Pablo Torre video on Youtube not worth watching.

Well, that was a national championship game worth watching. It will be interesting to see if either programs will be able to make the playoffs again next season. Not a big fan of Miami, but college football does kinda need the U to be The U again.

Bob Weir shuffled off to deadhead heaven. I bet Howard was a huge deadhead and spent the entirety of the 1960s following them on the road, selling homemade bean burritos to pay for it all. All of the spammers on this site were all deadheads in the 1990s and depending on trust funds to pay for their life on the road.

I'm good with it. Here's a good clip of two local sports journalists talking guys sharing their thoughts on Wade and what he's actually saying. He's really talking to State fans and level setting this team's expectations right now. I am 100% here for a coach doing that with this delusional fan base.

It's been cold here for the last few weeks so I think the Pack are acclimated as well. In fact, we've a few days of snow down here this week, plus right now. Nothing is sticking, though.

State is the highest seed remaining in this College Cup. So they must a 1 or a 2 seed or something high like that? No, they're a 15 seed!

The College Cup is being played right here in Cary, NC. Too cold, though. If I wanted to be outside to watch a sporting event in the cold, I would still be in northern Michigan. Eff that ess.

Hurts' QB rating for last night's game was a 27. Apparently if a QB just spikes the ball on every single down for the entire game, they would still get a 29 rating.
