Police investigating rape allegation against LSU football player​

An LSU football player whose suspension was overturned in a Title IX case is now being investigated by campus police and the district attorney for allegedly raping a female student last fall.

The woman, Kendall Francis, asked police to pursue a criminal case in September against defensive end Damien Shanklin, whom the LSU Office of Civil Rights and Title IX found responsible for "forcible rape." She first made her allegations public in a TikTok video posted Sept. 14.

LSU police said that it is now an "ongoing investigation." The East Baton Rouge District Attorney's Office confirmed in a statement that it is collecting materials and investigating, but declined further comment.

Robot umpires flip 54% of challenged calls as Reds lead way​

Robot umpires overturned 54% of challenged calls in the first season of the automated ball-strike system as catchers were far more successful than batters.

Learning when to challenge is key.

The Cincinnati Reds had a net gain of 16.8 runs, according to Baseball Savant calculations of total run value of overturns on challenges. The Los Angeles Angels were next at 14.0, followed by the Athletics (12.3) and Minnesota Twins (10.1).

Just sayin': The "robo ump" should just call all the balls/strikes via an ear piece transmission directly to the home plate ump. The home plate ump makes that call after factoring in the other facts, i.e. "did he go around?" and "was the ball a foul tip?", etc.

Columbus Blue Jackets (Official Thread)

had no idea the NHL reg season was now 84 games so i looked it up......

The National Hockey League expanded its regular season from 82 to 84 games starting in the 2026–27 season under a new collective bargaining agreement between the league and the players' association. [1, 2]

Why the NHL Changed to 84 Games
    • Balanced Divisional Matchups: Franchises wanted to fix an imbalanced schedule that forced some division rivals to play each other only three times a year. The two extra games ensure a uniform four matchups per season against every divisional opponent.
    • Enhanced Rivalries: Playing more head-to-head games against regional and conference foes helps build heated rivalries and fan interest.
    • Reduced Preseason: To accommodate the two extra regular-season games without adding extra physical toll, exhibition play was cut down to four games per team.
    • Calendar Spacing: Starting the regular season in late September creates a better overall flow and provides more breathing room between the Stanley Cup Final and the offseason draft and free agency.
    • Business Growth: Owners and stakeholders benefit from additional ticket sales and broadcast revenue generated by 1,344 total regular-season games. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

Historical Context
This shift marks only the second time in league history that the NHL has played an 84-game schedule. Teams previously played 84 games during the 1992–93 and 1993–94 seasons before a lockout shortened the 1994–95 season and the league subsequently standardized an 82-game format starting in 1995–96.

Just wanted to say that sorry that the Fever bowed out last night. Also that the 'fix' was in. I certainly understand the incompetence of the refs, but that usually extends to both sides of mid-court. Last night, the Fever took some fouls that simply were blows. Saw Aja get away with murder (almost literally), and the one where Lexie was dragged down on top of a player, AND called for the foul. Now certain how far up her a** the Fever's coach's head was, but she could have spent challenges a bit better. Not saying that the Fever was better than the Aces, but they didn't deserve any additional help from the zebras.

It's funny how historically you look at the next several games on the schedule and you think well, that's a loss, that's a loss, that's a loss. This year you look at it and think well, that's a win, that's a maybe, that's a win. As a long suffering Browns fan, I know in my heart of hearts that they are all going to be losses.

The only thing that would have made that game better, would be not to have to listen to Herbstreit spew his bullshit for three hours.

Yeah. How about the 1 play they flagged the Browns for 3 penalties? Herbie calls for offensive PI for push-off (which looked like that on replay). But when official says it's defensive, he just goes along with it. Stick to your guns Herbie. The receiver clearly initiated and continued contact. Looked like he threw a block downfield.
