Pittsburgh Pirates (5x WS Champions) Ain't Nutting happenin'



On the season, Skenes now has a 1.88 ERA and 92 strikeouts, but an underwhelming 4-6 record to go along with it. There have been 90 instances of a pitcher having a sub-2.10 ERA and 80-plus strikeouts through the first 13 starts of a season in MLB history. Skenes is the only one with a losing record, according to OptaSTATS.

QB Aaron Rodgers (Super Bowl XLV MVP, Asinine Conspiracy Theories MVP)

They need to commit to a rebuild. They've been stale for 7-8 years and the problem is they're winning just enough to prevent them from receiving the draft assets needed to move them forward. They seem like they're more worried about just remaining competitive instead of stepping back for a couple of years to build another team that can compete and/or win a SB. Rodgers just extends the time in purgatory.
this, exactly this :cash:

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, etc.

I think ESPN and Fox will both go with the latter. They have massive financial interests in college football. And if the NCAA didn't exist, it would make their job easier. Especially if the SEC and Big Ten left the NCAA behind. ESPN and Fox would weasel their way into whatever entity would be created in it's wake.
I'd think twice before having the media moguls be the arbiters of college football. The NCAA or something like it is essential because the colleges don't/won't/couldn't/can't rule themselves. Few things illustrate this better than the history of college sports prior to 1906 - the Ivy Leaguers and Michigan knew they'd created a monstor they couldn't control. Well, not so much Michigan. It took the Western Conference to break their determination to be players and referees.
