I think that I saw that he had some form of vertigo? Potentially, the result of football-related trauma?

If that's the case, and regardless, I hope the kid finds his legs under him again.

That's what I have seen. Something along the lines of a concussion that has not fully healed.

US interested in hosting 2038 World Cup - Giuliani​

The US is staging the men's World Cup for the second time, having previously done so in 1994

The United States could consider making a bid to host the men's 2038 World Cup, says the executive director of the White House's World Cup task force.

The US are co-hosting the 2026 World Cup with Canada and Mexico, with the tournament having been expanded from 32 teams to 48.

Fifa is considering expanding the format even further to 64 teams as early as 2030.

"When you think that this World Cup may at some point expand out to 64 teams, I think the United States can handle it," said Andrew Giuliani.

"Let me make sure we get through this World Cup on 19 July before we make our pitch for 2038 or other ones."

Two things:
1. I love that he has maintained his "Ohio against the World" mentality.
2. I also love that he isn't referring to Cincinnati as on his side in "Ohio against the World". I don't mind Cincinnati. I like Cincinnati. But I find it funny that Cleveland fans dont see Cincinnati as part of Ohio.

Why should they? CincinnatIans believe they live in the Capitol of Tri-State, not Ohio.

He looks like he could put a solid 35 lbs on that frame, dude is going to get big

Ex-es in Texas.

We found Mr Pink

4 incoming Ohio State hockey players were selected in the 2026 NHL Draft​

Despite being drafted, all four players are expected to play for Ohio State in the fall.

Ben Wilmott - 92nd overall pick - Las Vegas Golden Knights​

Evan Jardine - 121st overall pick - Columbus Blue Jackets​

Tobias Tvrznik - 126th overall pick - Colorado Avalanche​

This season we saw Jakub Dobeš take over as the starting goaltender in Montreal, helping the Canadiens reach the Eastern Conference Finals before they were eventually eliminated by the Carolina Hurricanes, who went on to win the Stanley Cup.
Tobias Tvrznik hopes to find success in the NHL in the future after he was drafted by the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday in the fourth round.

The Czechia product will have a few years before he reaches the NHL, as he won’t even turn 19 until the end of July. Before committing to Ohio State, Tvrznik appeared in 39 games for the Wenatchee Wild of the Western Hockey League, posting a 3.10 goals against average and .913 save percentage.

While the goals against average is a little high, Tvrznik’s save percentage is impressive. With a pretty crowded pipeline at goalie, Tvrznik can afford to spend some time in Columbus to develop.

Not an annoyance per se, but I found it odd that there was a free feminine hygiene products dispenser in a men’s room in the Seattle airport, and yes I am sure that it was a men’s room, not a gender neutral restroom, and that I also hadn’t accidentally walked into the women’s room.

Just an interesting article:

Jets' Demario Davis spends nearly $1M annually on body recovery​

Demario Davis was ready to quit football in 2016. He was only 27, but every joint in his body ached. By midseason, the pain was unbearable.

It was his lone year with the Cleveland Browns, where they finished 1-15 -- which only added to the anguish. Desperate for relief, he couldn't wait for the season to end.

"My body was just -- I was done, and I was ready to hang it up," he said recently.

Davis, now back with the New York Jets, who drafted him in the third round in 2012, was sitting in an office at the team's facility, having just completed an offseason practice in preparation for his 15th season. He's 37 now, with strands of gray in his thick beard, but he exudes the energy of a rookie, with one of his personal trainers saying he has the body of a 24-year-old.

He almost opted for an early retirement, but instead, he now ranks eighth on the career list for most games played at his position (227), and he will rise to fourth if he plays every game this season -- a routine accomplishment for him. Incredibly, he has missed only one game because of injury -- a pulled hamstring with the New Orleans Saints in 2024.

Davis went from "Woe, me" to "OG."

He attributes the turnaround to his deeply rooted spiritual beliefs and a 24/7, 365-day-a-year commitment to his body. Basically, he has two full-time jobs -- playing football and preparing and recovering from football.

Davis has a six-person team that travels to him from places like California, Arizona and Texas, performing a variety of treatments and therapies that keep his body in peak condition. We're talking about everything from old-school acupuncture to cutting-edge Tecar Therapy, which uses radiofrequency energy to reduce pain, improve range of motion and facilitate tissue regeneration.

By his estimate, he spends $500,000 to $1 million per year on body training and recovery.

"My body is my company, and the brand that comes from playing the game is my company," Davis said. "If I don't reinvest in the engine of the company and the brand of the company, I just don't think that's wise. I just try to be a good steward of what's been given."

"He's going to be great for the Jets," Saints coach Kellen Moore said in March. "His leadership in the locker room and on the field, the example that he sets every day in practice -- obviously, he performed at a really high level last year. And so I think it's going to be great for those guys up there to have him in that locker room. I think he's going to raise the level for all."

Remember, Davis wasn't supposed to make it this far. Late in that 2016 season, that nightmarish year in Cleveland, he went into his prayer closet -- an old-shoe closet in his apartment -- and asked God for guidance. He was "ready to wave the white flag," he said, reflecting on his turning point.

After prayer, his spirit was reborn. Soon, his body was, too. Now here he is, readying for Year 15, leapfrogging all-time greats on the games-played list.

"I haven't had time to sit with it and appreciate the mind-blowingness of it," he said, inventing a word. "But I do try to tell people, 'What you're witnessing, I'm witnessing, too.' I'm shocked by it just as much as the person looking."

Your fucking curse worked.

Uck this one hurts. The hardest thing for the B1G schools that aren't the west coast schools is holding onto players from getting poached once they start showing a little something

Is Kwan rolling over soft grounders to SS or 2B and pop ups to shallow LF or CF a bad night? A bit better than Strike 3 looking, wouldn’t you say?

Manziel didn’t have anything near the stable of WRs, RBs, or TEs to throw to that Sayin has/had.
my own preference is for a QB who can run. Looking at the NFL, my guess is that the pure passer is losing ground to QBs who can run.

The world needs more Jaspers in it.
