And so here we are. This statement from Trump blows my mind. That a sitting president would not let any renovations to a public building go on unless he gets to first put his name in the said building… What a sad state of affairs. What a tragedy. Actually, how small minded, how narcissistic. Actually
great men, devoted to public service and the public good do not act like this.
It seems that this man will not rest until his name is permanently connected to the name of a great president, whose memory this building was dedicated to. Imagine spending your time and your days focused on this, as everyday Americans struggle with healthcare, gas prices, rent, and food. Imagine spending your days focused on this, while a war rages under your leadership.
Enough said. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Fans are what make college football happen. They can be dramatic at times, but they are the lifeblood. Every coach and CFB journalist has a job only because of them. Their diehard spirits go beyond the 12-16 games their favorite team plays in a given year. The transfer portal window needs to be adjusted because right now I would assume a fourth of the Power 4 fanbases, maybe more, are on the ledge. Only outgoing, no incoming until Jan. 2. Short sighted thinking on their decision to shift the winter portal window the way they did. You are literally only creating a negative experience for fans while basically requiring college football programs to tamper in the portal recruiting process.
Way back in 1979, I spent summer in Memphis covering Expos’ AA team.
They were kids, but damn good.
Players on team included …
Bill Gullickson, Dave Hostetler, Tony Johnson, Charlie Lea, Tony Phillips, Tim Raines, Pat Rooney, Bryn Smith and Tim Wallach.
I might be crazy, but think those kids could’ve won a three-game series against these Rockies.
Colorado’s first 14 portal additions:
QB Kaidon Salter
WR Joseph Williams
TE Zach Atkins
OL Aki Ogunbiyi
OL Zarian McGill
DL Jehiem Oatis
DL Gavriel Lightfoot
LB Reggie Hughes
LB Kylan Salter
LB Martavius French
DB Makari Vickers
S Tawfiq Byard
K Buck Buchanan
P Damon Greaves
Ashton Jeanty is special. He would've won the Heisman in 9 of the last 10 years (besides Joe Burrow in 2019), but he won't in 2024. That's because Travis Hunter is having a once in a lifetime season. My take below
Deion Sanders during the @valeroalamobowl press conference: “We don’t tap out. We don’t sit out. It’s a blessing to play this wonderful game. Our kids are going to play.
“Matter of fact, we’re gonna pick up the Heisman Trophy this week and he’s gonna play.”
