2 weeks 1 day ago   Fact:  George R. R. Martin

 

Fact:  George R. R. Martin (author) is a Jets fan. 

Opinion:  Game of Thrones is more entertaining than the Jets.  But makes about as much sense as the Jets do.  

Question:  Did George R. R. Martin base Joffrey on Craig James?  Who unloads a quiver of arrows into a perfectly good hooker?

“Take Manti, for example,” Weis said. “I love Manti. Manti and I will be close the rest of our lives, as will his family and I. But I think it’s important for me to understand it’s their team, it’s not my team. I have to worry about Kansas. But there (are) a lot of young men that are having a lot of success this year that I’m very, very happy for.”

Also, SEC on athletics

The obvious takeaway: the SEC is insane. SEC schools spend more than 12 times as much on each athlete as they do on their regular, non-revenue-generating students

Deadspin

Do you remember when Kraft had to stop calling it Cheese & Macaroni because there was more macaroni than cheese? Apparently Student Athletes are actually Athlete Students. Shout out to Cardale Jones.

Bad call...I don't want to see a kid worth a lot of money right now holding out. Odds are he'll be fine and a likely top-10 pick next season, but he has plenty of value now.

18 weeks 1 day ago If Damon Webb was going to

If Damon Webb was going to commit to OSU him doing it this early is probably the least worst option.  The staff can pursue others, and if he changes his mind and there's still a seat, so be it.  Losing a hat ceremony right before NSD 2014 would've been completely different.

Join me, on a trip down bad memory lane:

It went ok from what I'm hearing. I don't think Alabama fits his personality as well as Michigan does. I've said this before, but I think Michigan has a clear lead on him. Poggi is a smart kid, his parents also want him to go to a highly rated academic institution. In terms of ratings and football tradition, Michigan would be hard to beat Michigan for Poggi. If he does sign with the Tide, then Saban clearly sold him on his pro potential. -Roll Damn Tide, 4/30/2012

In 2011 Kelly said:

You can see the players that I recruited here, you know who they are. We've had one class … that I've had my hand on. The other guys here are coming along. But it's a process. It can't happen overnight. They're getting there. We're making good progress."

The "process" is having some unfortunate side effects. Weis and Kelly deserve each other.
23 weeks 4 days ago It seems like only two years

It seems like only two years ago that Declan Sullivan died on Coach Kelly's watch:

Gust of wind up to 60mph well today will be fun at work... I guess I've lived long enough.

Holy f*** holy f*** this is terrifying.

I was really looking forward to Coach Kelly moving on to "pursue other opportunities", but that's off the table.

The 11W MSU recap included this image of Pat "60 minutes of unnecessary roughness" Narduzzi.  I'm not sure if the use of Photoshop filters was an attempt to be Instagram-like or to make Pat look unwell.  Or maybe this just isn't his good side.

I didn't come to complain I came to ask if I was the only one who'd downgraded him from must read to nausea inducing.  I click the link, start reading and honestly get pissed off that the old Bill Simmons is dead.  If it's just me that's fine I actually appreciate the feedback.
49 weeks 4 days ago Is it just me?

I used to love his columns, especially his NFL columns.  I can barely read his stuff anymore.  It's hard to credibly reflect the working class underdog fan when you are sitting courtside at the Finals, chumming around with the former chairman of Disney on your podcast, or talking about your daughter's private school crush on Slash's kid.  Maybe it's just me.  

I miss the old Bill Simmons, the new one is talented and successful but a complete douche.

Deion Sanders UA practice quote:

Richardson is a darn sponge, he's one of those kids you love to have on your team because when you say 'Can I get somebody for a drill,' he's the first one there. If he does something wrong, he said 'Coach, show me what I did.' You love that about him.

50 weeks 6 days ago +1

 

I was hoping he'd advocate for the pro-Ohio "death threats are totally justified" perspective.  I guess the good news is that Bayless and Stephen A are likely still available to fill that role.  Or perhaps Craig James and Pam Ward can be brought back along with Matt Millen and Chris Spielman for the most ridonkulous segment in the history of time.  And let's throw it to Terrelle Pryor for a closing, "everybody kills people".  

Good night and good luck.
1 year 6 weeks ago Not to revivify a dead horse, but:

Narduzzi outright admitted it in a press conference (link):

That's what we tried to do, 60 minutes of unnecessary roughness

Hollis initially said (link):

This is an isolated incident [that happened repeatedly during the course of the game] and Coach D and his staff will continue to emphasize the importance of maintaining one's composure during the heat of the moment [as well as in press conferences]. As an AD, I take [saying flowery things about] sportsmanship seriously, but it's equally important for me to evaluate this game and the particular play [or, uh, plays] in its totality [as soon as I get off of The Twitter]

and finally after a week and pressure from the B1G Hollis got around to saying (link):

I have taken this opportunity to express to Pat the importance of collecting his thoughts after an emotional game to ensure that he puts his best foot forward with the media and public in the future. He’s an outstanding coach and motivator [who publicly admitted he coached his kids to play with "unnecessary roughness"] and a rising star in his profession [because clearly the message is getting through, and he has people like me enabling him].

Kudos to the NFL for setting a good precedent where the B1G and god forbid E.L. might have.
1 year 9 weeks ago James "Tommy Boy" Dolan

Leave it to the Knicks (cough, hack Dolan) to let something this good die so quickly.

EDIT: Well summarized here

The truth is, the anger I feel toward Carmelo is really anger that should be directed at owner James Dolan. If ‘Melo is Paulie, then Dolan, to continue the Godfather analogy, is basically Fredo, if Fredo were twice as stupid and three times as jumpy. When Fredo panicked, all he did was fumble the gun, sit down, and cry. Dolan would’ve accidentally fired it, hitting his father another couple of times in the back, before running away and hiding.
