J.J. McCarthy (once a tCun, always a tCun; Nine on the Pine)

Vikings GM expects McCarthy to be on Week 1 roster, 'to develop'

Vikings general manager Nolan Teasley said Wednesday that he expects quarterback J.J. McCarthy to be a part of the team's roster when the regular season begins.

Teasley's comments were a show of measured support following a summer in which McCarthy lost his starting job and appears to be third on the Vikings' depth chart behind Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz.

"J.J. McCarthy's role is to continue to develop, to improve and to support his teammates," Teasley said. "And he's done an excellent job of that from the moment that I've been here and,

There was a bbq place in Brevard,NC that had the front page of a Boone, NC newspaper framed hanging behind the cash register. It was celebrating the upset .
Owner's kid went to App State at that time. Told him there was more App State gear sold in Columbus after that game than in Boone and he said he had heard that but didn't know why. I explained how deep the hatred ran for the cheaters. He was somewhat surprised.

SEC (It just means more.. even its losses are wins)

Tennessee chancellor says SEC 'will not budge' on NFL rule

The president of the SEC's executive committee, Tennessee chancellor Donde Plowman, told ESPN on Tuesday that the league "will not budge" on its rule that NFL players cannot return to college. Speaking on behalf of the SEC's presidents and chancellors, she made clear that the SEC is "prepared to defend our rules" and wants commissioner Greg Sankey to feel empowered to levy significant penalties.

"We have a responsibility to try and lead the best we can in this time of chaos," Plowman said. "Our group is united on this. This is not a rule we will budge on." She added: "Enough is enough."

Plowman's comments come amid a gripping potential showdown between LSU and the SEC over the eligibility of former NFL players who've committed to the Tigers but have yet to be formally added to the roster.

If the SEC takes immediate action to punish LSU, the league would be violating a standing court order issued by a state judge in Louisiana that prohibits the SEC and Sankey from enforcing any rules -- including conference-wide bans on pro players -- that would keep the players involved in an ongoing lawsuit off the field.

Plowman stressed that the SEC presidents and chancellors are most concerned with the "narrow" issue of players returning from the NFL to college, which has emerged amid a flurry of eligibility lawsuits of players seeking a fifth year of eligibility in the wake of the NCAA's new eligibility rules. She called the return to college a "line in the sand" for the presidents and chancellors.

"It's not a new rule," Plowman said of pros not being able to return to college. "We didn't just cook up a rule. It's not a new rule. The way we see it. We are a voluntary membership organization, and we have a right to set and enforce our rules. We want to clarify -- this is not about the five-for-five.

"This is about -- if you signed a contract, you signed a contract. That's always been the bottom line. You don't get to unsign it and come back."

Tiger Woods (Official Thread)

Tiger Woods takes plea deal for reckless driving in DUI case, loses driver's license for five years

Woods changed his plea to avoid jail time, though he will not escape penalty​

tiger-plea.jpg


After initially entering a plea of not guilty following his arrest for DUI back in March, Tiger Woods changed his tune Wednesday morning during a court appearance in Martin County, Florida. Woods amended his plea to guilty, accepting a reduced charge of reckless driving and refusal to submit to a lawful test as part of a deal that allows him to avoid jail time. However, Woods will pay a small fine and have his driver's license suspended for five years.

Woods has largely stayed out of the spotlight since his arrest, announcing in early April that he was skipping the Masters, instead seeking treatment outside the United States. He ultimately did not play during the PGA Tour season.

Woods' arrest came after a rollover car crash near his home on Jupiter Island, where it was determined by officers on the scene that the 15-time major champion showed signs of impairment. He submitted to a Breathalyzer test and blew a 0.0; however, through observation, officers determined he was impaired by a form of medication or drug.

Refusing to take a urinalysis test, Woods was booked on two misdemeanor charges of DUI with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. He initially entered a not-guilty plea to the charges and subsequently filed a petition seeking treatment outside the U.S., which a judge granted.

Five months later, Woods has agreed to this plea deal. Should he violate the agreement, he will face jail time.
