Imagine how much he'd hate us if he'd been teamed up with Tyson Walter.

Years ago at one of the Spring Games, I got his autograph. I had been waiting in Winfield's line, but right when I got up to him he was called back into the game (this was when the track was still there and the autograph sessions were during the game.) So I went off to find someone else to sign my stupid little poster and there was Tyson Walter, standing all by himself, no one trying to get his autograph. So My dad and I walked over and I got his autograph.

I've since lost that poster, just as I lost the point of this post.

Vikings: Cut presumed starting guard Boone

Last offseason Alex Boone signed a four-year, $27 million deal with the Vikings. This year they decided to move on without him. After the guard reportedly refused to take a paycut, the team made him part of their final cuts on Saturday. Boone ranked 44th out of 77 qualified guards last season, per Pro Football Focus, and his play this preseason wasn't enough to keep his job.

ALEX BOONE EYES A COMEBACK. In a surprising turn of events, former Buckeye Alex Boone is looking to make an NFL comeback. And in an even more surprising turn of events, this news actually broke four months ago!



I think pretty much everyone worldwide should get a pass for forgetting or missing a minor news story that happened in March of this year, but I guarantee the only reason Rapoport suddenly decided to report this is that he got a text from his agent asking him to.

But hey, I can't knock the hustle – it worked. As a noted talker-about-sports, I will gladly share the video of a 315-pound Ohio State alum doing a 42-inch box jump.



Imagine running Ironmans for two years and then deciding "Meh, I think I'm going to bulk back up again and play professional football at the highest level once more." I mean shit, I have trouble with the "imagine running" portion of that statement.

This fall hasn't been a normal one for anybody in this country.

The coronavirus pandemic didn't stop 51 current and former Ohio State athletes from graduating from the university following the Autumn 2020 semester.

Former linebacker Ryan Shazier, point guard CJ Walker, center Josh Myers, former cornerback Jeff Okudah, defensive tackle Haskell Garrett, former offensive lineman Alex Boone, wing Musa Jallow and linebacker Tuf Borland were among those to earn degrees from their university during Sunday's virtual commencement ceremony.

In total, seven former Buckeye athletes returned to school to take classes and finish their classwork through the degree completion program set up by the athletic department in 1994: Shazier, Boone, Okudah, Connor Curlis (baseball), Sam Jardine (men’s hockey), Isaiah Prince (football) and C.J. Saunders (football). Saunders, who earned a Master's Degree in kinesiology, is currently working on the football staff in an unannounced capacity after having his sixth-year waiver denied by the NCAA earlier this year.
