This $11.2MM number was essentially confirmed this morning during the congressional hearing as Senator Cantwell said that the PAC12 media deal will be providing schools between $10-12MM annually. For clarity sake, that is only media value, not distribution (which will be more)

Sources: Ten-time Pro-Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson is finalizing a deal to become a CBS Sports analyst. Wilson won a Super Bowl, the Walter Payton Man of the Year award and now leaves the NFL to become an analyst on the network’s pregame show that includes James Brown, Nate Burleson and Bill Cowher.

Now agreed to and official: The #Browns are trading Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the #Rams for star edge Jared Verse, a 2027 1st-round, a 2028 2nd round, and a 2029 3rd, per me, @AdamSchefter and @TomPelissero.

The offseason's biggest trade is final and real.

41 years ago today, this man ordered a Bloody Mary, a steak sandwich and....

Then proceeded to charge it to the Underhills.

23 year old Kota Kaneko from Japan chipped in on the 17th on his way to a 2 shot victory at the Austrian Open over Davis Bryant and Ricardo Gouveia.

Kota qualified for the DP World Tour via winning the Japan Golf Tour OOM last year, now he’s won already and climbed to 11th on the Race to Dubai and in line for a potential PGA Tour Tour card next season.

It’s another great example of the power of pathway systems to help identify and elevate talent 🇯🇵

NFL scouts still rave about the year the Incredible Hulk ran a 3.5 40 at the Combine. Unfortunately, he later ate the Wonderlic Test before hurling Pete Rozelle through a plate glass window.

The great Al Hrabosky. It warms my heart to know “The Mad Hungarian” is still crazy after all these years …

In 1999, several Avalanche players, including Claude Lemieux, plus GM Pierre Lacroix, lived in the Columbine High area and/or attended the nearby Catholic church. Columbine students were in the team's informal babysitter pool. In the wake of the 13 murders and others wounded on April 20, church parishioner Claude Lemieux asked the family of one hospitalized student if there was anything he could do. The family members, Lemieux's fellow parishioners, mused that, well, they hadn't been home much. Lemieux hired a cleaning service and sent it over to the family's home.
I suspect that Lemieux made other gestures, too, in the aftermath of the shootings, but that's the one I know about.
RIP, Pepe.
