Should’ve been worse. A Rocket fumbled at the 1 on his way into the end zone in the 4th quarter, and the ball went through for a touchback.

Would’ve been cool to see Dallan play for Memphis and be able to beat FSU.

Preseason ranking are dumb as hell.

Agreed, because lazy analysts will put ND in the top every year due to their Name. Same with Ped St and Oregon(who was supposed to annihilate every team on their way to playing in the title game). No one wants to rank NIU or BC in the preseason, it’s easier to just say that FSU is better because they’re FSU

Did we score yet?

Haven't been in Covelli yet, on the bucket list, but looks like an absolute mid-size arena winner. Super for wrestling, volleyball, and ?. Grew up as a St. John's Arena fan, so when a few more of us die off, they'll raze St John's for- what, parking? Don't much care for the Schott, but it's what we've got. With the recent success of the women's basketball teams (vs the men's), believe that Covelli would be bursting at seams, but do agree with those that say the close confines of the Covelli, might give tOSU's teams a noise advantage. Also believe that tOSU's athletic facilities are overall outstanding, although haven't traveled to enough other campus's (campi?) to compare.

Just bought my plane tickets and hotel for Chicago in November. Definitely looking forward to seeing the Buckeyes in Chicago. Hope some of you will be there as well. I'm sure there will be some Buckeye watering hole for drinks before the game.

There are good Ohio state bars in lakeview (the actual name of the neighborhood in which Wrigley resides).

I’m headed there with the lady friend; we contemplated taking our daughter to her first game but figured November outdoors for 3 hours is borderline abusive for a 6 year old.

if others are going, more than happy to organize a crawl or something.

Adrian Peterson ordered to turn over assets to pay $12M debt​

Former NFL running back Adrian Peterson has been ordered by a Houston judge to turn over numerous assets as a means toward paying a debt that is estimated at more than $12 million.

The court-appointed receiver, Robert Berleth, requested this order in July and said Peterson "is known to have numerous assets" at his home in Missouri City, Texas. The Houston judge on Monday ordered constables in Fort Bend County, Texas, to accompany Berleth to Peterson's residence to keep the peace.

Peterson's debt issues began when he took out a loan for $5.2 million from a Pennsylvania lending company in 2016. The sum has grown because of interest and attorney's fees, leading to an $8.3 million judgment against him in 2021.

"No offsets have been made against this judgment to date," the receiver stated in the July court filing.



Entertainers & Athletes Group, the public relations firm representing Peterson, issued a statement to Field Level Media on Tuesday seeking to clarify his position in the matter. EAG said "every effort to resolve this issue has been rejected" and "attempts at an amicable settlement have been rebuffed."

"The article that has surfaced contains no new information. Adrian Peterson has been dealing with this lawsuit since 2017, which stems from a business loan arranged by his then-financial advisor, Jeff Wiseman. The loan was for a company co-owned by Peterson, Wiseman, and another partner. As the majority owner, Peterson was made the guarantor of the loan, making him solely responsible for the collateral," EAG CEO Denise White said in a written statement Tuesday afternoon.

"Wiseman assured Peterson that the company would be able to repay the high-interest loan, as the funds were used to purchase equipment for the business. This was not a personal loan taken out by Peterson but a business loan, and Wiseman guaranteed that it would be repaid from the company's profits. Unfortunately, the company failed to repay the loan, leaving Peterson financially liable for the debt. Meanwhile, Wiseman, who advised Peterson to take out the loan, has not faced any financial or legal responsibility regarding the matter."

Just sayin': Apparently his business advisor Jeff Wiseman gave him really bad financial advise and just screwed him over. It is reported that Adrian Peterson's career earnings in the NFL (from 2007 thru 2021) is $103,215,972 so you have to wonder why he needed a $5.6M loan in 2016.

Worst fear comes true for Steelers punter Cameron Johnston​

In his post-game press conference, Mike Tomlin feared the worst for Pittsburgh Steelers punter Cameron Johnston. Those fears have come true, as Ian Rapoport reported that, indeed, Johnston is done for the season.

Johnston, who took a blow to the knee in the fourth quarter of the Steelers' Week 1 victory over the Falcons, signed a three-year contract* in March.

Stock Up/Down: Ohio State Takes Massive Strides in Run Blocking and Dominates Western Michigan, C.J. Hicks Passed By Arvell Reese on LB Depth Chart​

There’s an argument to be made for every single Ohio State starter being in the Stock Up section of this week's stock report.

The Buckeyes slaughtered Western Michigan 56-0 and looked like every bit of the national championship contender they were touted to be entering 2024. The defense posted its first shutout since 2019. The offense answered questions about its running game with a 273-yard rushing performance.
Name a position group for Ohio State, it excelled against the Broncos, plain and simple. A special teams hiccup or two will be thrown on film and coaches are always going to look for fine details to improve on, but the Buckeyes’ investments are having fantastic returns two weeks into the college football season. The same can't be said for a collection of Big Ten foes, however.

Hall of Famer Wade Boggs reveals he has prostate cancer​

Baseball Hall of Fame member Wade Boggs has prostate cancer.

The former third baseman made the announcement Saturday night on social media and sounded optimistic, saying he will be ready to take part in the ritual cancer patients have of ringing a bell when they have concluded their treatment.

"With the strength and support of my family and my faith in God I'm going to ring that damn bell," Boggs wrote, adding a photo of a prostate cancer patient guide.
