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

SEC fines Oklahoma, Auburn after fans storm field in upsets over Alabama, Texas A&M

The Sooners were hit with an extra $100,000 because fans stormed the field before the end of the Alabama game​

The SEC has fined Auburn and Oklahoma a combined $300,000 for a violation of the league's access to competition area policy after fans from both teams stormed the field following Week 13 upsets. Both programs incurred a $100,000 fine as first-time offenders, but the Sooners were tagged with an additional $100,000 after fans stormed the field early, causing a delay.

This has been a season of heavy fines for the conference. Most recently, LSU and Ole Miss were given hefty fines for different offenses. LSU became the second school fined $250,000 this season for fans throwing trash and debris onto the playing surface, while Ole Miss received a $350,000 fine for fans rushing the field after a win over Georgia.

Ohio State women’s basketball played its second game against a MAC opponent this week, and it ended pretty much the same as their Wednesday trip to Athens, Ohio. The Buckeyes defeated the Bowling Green Falcons 96-53 and after the game head coach Kevin McGuff, Kennedy Cambridge, and Ava Watson spoke with the media.

Watson talked about growing comfort as she adjusts to her first season playing NCAA basketball, Cambridge walked through what was on her mind leading up to an emphatic block, playing with her sister, and getting onto the court for the first time in almost two years.

McGuff ended the press conference talking about the Buckeyes’ withstanding early pressure from the Falcons but their conditioning bringing them through, the perimeter play of Ohio State, and the consistent play of Taylor Thierry being a foundation of stability on the roster.

That and more on the next “Uncut.”

Chicago Bears (official thread)

My football fandom came of age in the mid-late 80's. Back then, the Bears were a freaking force. From 1984-88, they were 62-17. Ultimate ground and pound team. Payton, McMahon, Jumbo Covert, Dent, Singletary, Hampton, McMichael, Fencik, Duerson, Wilber Marshall. Seemed like they had the foundation of a dynasty, but they never realized it. That 1985 defense is still the most wicked defense I've ever seen. Now, they're a laughingstock. They've spent most of the last 30 years wandering in the wilderness. Just 6 playoff appearances in that span. Sure, they've bubbled up to be semi-competitive from time-to-time, but they've never been able to put together any sustained success. That's what happens when you have piss-poor ownership and management.
