2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

It is definitely the result of Indiana being in there and playing against what is seen by many as a blue blood. Nobody really cares about Notre Dame anymore, and I don't think anyone expected that game to be competitive. Also don't underestimate how much the SEC and ACC country hates us.
I think we’re probably on the same page here, but just to clarify, I don’t consider this to be a bad thing. Hate equals ratings. People tune in to watch teams they hate all the time.

Deion Sanders (HC Colorado, Father of SubPrime)

Any NFL franchise that would even consider hiring a guy who has a 16-21 record coaching major college football as their head coach deserves to fold. It's easy to say "no way" when nobody is ever going to ask.
5 games under .500?

Arizona Cardinals offered Kliff Kingsbury the HC job in 2019 after he compiled a 35–40 record at Texas Tech. He had Patrick Mahomes there too.

NFL Discussion (Official Thread)

Like any business-sell more to the same customer or go find new markets to sell your stuff into.

Obvious answer for NFL is new markets.

CFB is the one that will hit a hard wall there. They better start coming up with some additional products/services. :lol:
For now, I guess. But in 60 years? I don't see Mumbai or Santiago being real excited to join the nfl. I'll be like, enough already. But dissecting the author's reasoning requires reading the book, or maybe the NYT article, and I have yet to do either. Besides, I can't get past the disadvantages for a team flying 9+ hours to play football.

For college, as I stated earlier, we're the only country on the planet that has college sports anywhere near this level.

2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

Holtmann 6
Matta 13
O'Brien 7
Ayers 8
Williams 3
Miller 8

I'll have to do that tomorrow. Taylor damn near 3-peated and then was meh for most of the rest of his tenure. Miller started slow and got better until they canned him after winning the NIT in 1986....in the timeframe I went from. Miller had only been the coach for 2 years with zero tournament appearances...

Ok about what I thought!

Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

I’m too lazy to go find it, but curious the game splits of Mitchell and Harden on court together?

Probably hard to implement Game 1, but there should really never be a scenario in a game where one of them is off the court…..in a competitive game.
The 4th quarter they played together a lot, the "winning time" and the Offense rolled.

PGA Tour (Official Thread)

The issue with Brooks is he always played a “light” PGA Tour schedule anyways. He has never liked to grind, and he’s an admitted “home-body”…..nothing wrong with that, IMO.

For all the shit LIV players get, their schedule is mandatory to qualify for the contractual $$$, and the schedule is all over the world. Brooks hates that.

Add in LIV went to (4) round tournaments (like the PGA Tour) to qualify for World Ranking points, and many of the reasons Brooks joined LIV (for less wear and tear on his body) basically disappeared over 2 years.

He’s going to play a light PGA schedule, but be much happier.

The last thing I’d point out….he made his brother Chase $5M on LIV. Chase ended up being relegated but he earned over $5M in his short time in LIV, only bc Brooks called that shot (that Chase had to play the first season). Now that Chase is relegated, he can’t really do his brother any favors….

But at least the next time Chase calls from the Philippino Tour asking for $$$, Brooks can say “what’d you do with that $5M I made you?”

Was probably worth it for that alone.
I hadn’t realized that they’d gone to four rounds.

FWIW, for fans of the intro to Laverne and Shirley, and in the interest of offering an unsolicited Yiddish lesson, that poor innocent bastard would be a schlimazel.

SG Malaki Branham (B1G Freshman of the Year, Charlotte Hornets)

He didn't play in college for 8 years so he should have eligibility remaining. Guys who have played professionally are coming back to college. I think tOSU should put together a massive NIL package for him. (Unfortunately in today's wild west world that isn't as wild as it should sound.)

The Jerome Schottenstein Center (Official Thread)

New Hockey Arena Coming to OSU in January?​

I'm watching Ohio State skating against Minnesota on the BTN and the announcers let a comment slip when talking about the job coach Steve Rohlik, who's in his 13th season with the Puckeyes has done. They said "there's big news coming in January about a new facility."

Just sayin': They still have a little over a week....:lol:
And crickets. I don't trust the dynamic duo of Slapshot and The Aggy to get anything done. It seems like they lucked into the NC last year and are content to just let the athletic department coast on momentum. With Slapshot, I think that's his general attitude towards the university overall.
