    Olympics: Flag Football

    How embarrassing would it be if Team USA didn't win a gold medal? It'd be like going to a party and bringing a game that is totally skill-based, and teaching it to everybody, and then NOT winning it. Except probably way worse. I don't know what kind of "market share" the NFL has outside of the...

    Do the Browns typically win games in the preseason?

    2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

    If I can figure this out, the playoffs would have looked like this: 1. Oregon 2. Georgia 3. Texas 4. Penn State 5. Notre Dame 6. Ohio State 7. Tennessee 8. Indiana 9. Boise State 10. SMU 12. Arizona State 16. Clemson Notre Dame would have hosted Clemson Ohio State would have hosted Arizona...

    2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

    I've been relaxing for 18 months. The NCAA made up their minds within a week when Cam Newton was in trouble. The NCAA made up their minds within 8 months when Ohio State was in trouble. The NCAA made up their minds within 8 months when Penn State was in trouble. C'mon, NCAA. Chip chop chip...

    2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

    I've never heard of "no contest" in this sense. I agree with your hierarchy, but they won't be forfeits. I don't have any insider information, but I feel very confident in my statement that they won't be forfeits. I also feel confident that a ruling of "no contest" will not be made for any...

    People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

    4. "Ask" as a noun. "The ask is to put this customer at the top of the list." "Ask" is a verb. Get it straight. 5. "I ain't gonna lie." Oh? If you hadn't said that, should I guess that you might lie to me? But now that you said that, I need to believe you? Maybe you're lying about whether you're...

    2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

    You forgot Ann Arbor High School. I'm okay starting the count in 1950 or 1951. What's the age of a football fan where you're confident that 99% of fans are younger than him? 80? For an 80-year-old, college football is 75 years old, if he's been aware of it since he was 5. So, that puts the...

    USC Trojans (official thread)

    Take it one more step: anyone who schedules Notre Dame is no longer welcome to play any Big Ten team. If you were... say... Northern Illinois, would you rather play Notre Dame once every 5-8 years, or play 1-2 Big Ten teams every year? Maybe that's not the best analogy, considering how Northern...

    2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

    How about 2010 Buckeyes? They punished the players 2-10 games (depending on the player, how much he took, etc.), AND they took 2010 from Ohio State, and 2012 post-season. They punished the kids who deserved it AND they punished the kids who didn't deserve it. With today's transfer rules, the...

    I like to take super secret dumps. They really aren't secret for long, though.

    2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

    Someday, there'll be a documentary about all of this. Sadly, I think they won't capture every part of this story. The documentary won't include anything with Ono: what his involvement is, or knowledge of it, or what he knew or when he knew it, or the nature of his departure... And I'm almost as...

    Game Thread #1 Texas at #2/#3 tOSU, Sat. Aug. 30th, 12pm ET, FOX

    Does Fox have a contract with MLB to always have a Saturday night game? For some reason, I think they do. Maybe when that contract is up, we can hope for some night games on Fox. And for the record, I like night games, too. I would prefer that this game be a night game. But I just know that Fox...

    Ha! First, yeah, I'm not sure you want to uphold this one. Second, that's true. And there are worse things to complain about. But, here's a list of better things to complain about: - Old playoff format - New playoff format - Proposed playoff formats - That time in 1974 when Ohio State beat...

    Here's a new one: I don't like it when people mark their emails "Important" or "Urgent". Unless you're my direct manager, don't do it. You don't do my job. I'll decide which emails are important.

    Yikes. Is this an Ohio State message board or a Penn State message board? Crying about what time your game starts - reeks of a Penn State complaint.

    In an ever-changing world, full of uncertainties, it is good to know that this opinion has not changed. And if it ever changes, I want you to pull the plug on my life support. And if I'm not on life support, then just pull the plug on the refrigerator, or find some other appliance that I like...
