there’s a German guy named Freddy here for the World Cup

as far as I can tell his meals on Monday were:

Waffle House at 1 AM
Wendy’s for lunch
Chili’s for dinner & NBA Finals Game 3

little does he know he just earned his citizenship, that was the secret meal combo to unlock it

I'm surprised that 99.999% of the CFB world is against this TT ruling. Usually, controversial decisions are more split but EVERYONE is (rightly) dogging the courts. We knew the system was broken long ago, but we're not pretending anymore.

Advancing the ball after timeouts is one of the dumbest rules in sports

[John Draper @JohnDDraper]

Wow.....

Leach truly one of a kind ❤️

[John Draper @JohnDDraper]

I second this

[Steven Hoying @StevenHoying]

This should play out one of two ways: either Mike Leach is swept into the Hall on the first ballot or you start a new Hall of Fame and build it around him.

NEW: Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko on College Football Playoff expansion talk:

"What does Mike Elko want? 40. Then I won’t get fired. It's ok to make it hard to get to the playoff."

Elko continued: "None of us are answering for the good of the sport. We’re answering for the good of ourselves."

@StevenHoying You knew it was coming. Can't have nice things.

Kidding. Good luck!

Ryan Day has been working on this recruit for 18 years but Northwestern landed him instead. Tough business!

On this day in 1999, Marshall McDougall put together arguably the greatest individual game in baseball history 🤯

The Florida State slugger went 7-for-7 with:
⚾ 6 HR
⚾ 16 RBI
⚾ 25 total bases

All NCAA single-game records.

After singling in his first at-bat against Maryland, McDougall homered in his next SIX plate appearances, completing a “home run cycle” with a solo shot, 2-run HR, 3-run HR and grand slam in a 26-2 win.

“A 4 team playoff will make bowl games matter less!”

*Ignores, destroys bowl season*

“A 12 team playoff will make the regular season matter less!”

*Ignores, makes rivalry game results irrelevant in many cases*

Now here we are… “A 24-team playoff will kill the value of the biggest regular season games”

The voices speaking out against playoff expansion have been right every single step of the way. Some of you might like the trade off for 4, 8, 12 or even 16… I see a bunch of teams that will have to go 1/4 in their losable games to make the playoff. How is that enjoyable?

[John Draper @JohnDDraper]

This is the way

NEW: Alabama will keep its 2027-28 home-and-home series with Ohio State,  @Brett_McMurphy reports.

The Crimson Tide has canceled its series with Oklahoma State.

This is a terrible pattern developing. Neutral site games are the opposite of what college football should be

[FSU Football @FSUFootball]

Florida State and Georgia have mutually agreed to cancel their upcoming home-and-home series

The schools are actively working to schedule a neutral-site matchup
