Their arguments are asinine.  "Football makes you drunk and stupid."  "Wall Street is messed up because of athletes."  "Football has no academic benefit."  How does it differ from the other sports?  Intelligence^2?  Intelligence/2 seems more appropriate.

The KSP’s Electronic Crimes Unit plumbed the hard drive of Waugh’s computer and found he had attempted to erase some of the images but that they were still there, [Boyd Commonwealth’s Attorney David Justice] said. Investigators also found evidence to indicate there was “no doubt” that Waugh had downloaded the pictures intentionally, he said.

The images were all of boys younger than 16, Justice said.

Granted, there are lots of punch lines here, but I wouldn't say that we've been unnecessarily rough on them for the past sixty minutes.  Some wrenches might be in order under the pile of cars, however.

It just goes to show that you can win a series with only luck and goaltending.  Look at the stat lines -- unreal.  Nashville fans probably think their team is really good at hockey.

Rinne has been great, but friendly bounces have saved his bacon way more often than expected this series.  It's so frustrating to watch.

That's how I always draw a foul.  You know, put my elbow through the defender's head.  Works every time.

Burke's legs are dead.  His jumpers are all short and he looks gassed whenever they show a closeup, which is what happens when you play 45 minutes less than 24 hours before another game.  We don't have much of a chance unless he finds his second wind at halftime.

The 2012 NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship will be available through the following platforms:

• For the second consecutive year, all 67 games will be televised across four television networks in their entirety — TBS, CBS, TNT, and truTV.

• Turner will stream its linear television games online for free on an authenticated basis on the Turner websites (TBS.com, TNT.tv and truTV.com) for consumers who have a cable, satellite or telco subscription that includes these respective Turner networks.  Authenticating this year’s Tournament across the Turner Networks is an extension of the company’s TV Everywhere initiative, which is currently available to more than 75 million households.

• All games airing on CBS will be available for free on CBSSports.com.

NCAA March Madness features include:

• My Channels:  Through My Channels, fans can easily find games using this personalized channel finder. By plugging in their zip code, users can select their TV provider and see their channel lineup for every game on TBS, CBS, TNT and truTV.

• The Game Center View:  The Game Center view provides fans with a control center at their fingertips for live in-game stats such as player stats, team leaders, scoring streaks, biggest lead and foul trouble, depending on which device they use – along with a graphic lead tracker — and live social features.

• The Coke Zero NCAA March Madness Social Arena: Extending the conversation beyond the broadcast, Coke Zero NCAA March Madness Social Arena will return as the social water cooler for March Madness conversation. New this year, features will be live across the entire NCAA March Madness suite of products and, for the first time, let fans grab key game moments and share them with friends and family.

"We are surprised and disappointed with the NCAA's decision," Smith's prepared statement about the penalties begins. He goes on to add, "This decision punishes future students for the actions of others in the past."

I was not aware that previous NCAA penalties only punished the involved individuals. . .  It's amazing how out of touch with reality they are.

1 year 24 weeks ago I don't think OSU has more

I don't think OSU has more than a 10% chance of jumping Bama.  The only reason we didn't get a rematch in 2006 is because voters knew that they had two alternatives in Florida and USC that could beat OSU.  Alabama is way ahead on the computers and I doubt enough voters think OSU can beat LSU.  In '06, it also didn't help that Ohio is the last game of the year.
1 year 29 weeks ago “Rodriguez’s staff uses some

“Rodriguez’s staff uses some of the foulest, most degrading language imaginable. I know coaches curse, and I’m no prude, but this goes way beyond a few dirty words. He belittles the players. This is a big part of why offensive lineman Justin Boren left the team. He felt his dignity was at stake.”

To write everything he wrote as a journalist knowing that it's complete fiction means you either A) have big brass balls or B) know you can get away with it.  If you don't have enough machismo to brush off Amazon reviews on your book, it's clearly the latter, which says about as much regarding the culture at the FP as it does his character.

Okay who ever was at my game last night and posted somewhere on the internet that my hand is broke.. lol It's not, I ding it up and we were winning by 42. No point of me going back in to tweak it worse. I'm PERFECTLY fine and I will be practicing and starting this week! Even if it was broke I would never sit out a football game!

I'm guessing Saban will offer 4-year schollies and then tell kids that they will never play again and to either transfer or be medicalled.

There is no "missed tackles" statistic that improved.  The stat that went from 108th to 8th is scoring defense.

Punching another player has already been established as a one-game suspension.  I would think trying to screw off another player's head unprovoked would be at least one as well.

He suspended Gholston for an entire commercial break before reinstating him.  I don't know what you want with him.  He also gave him a very stern looking at, which, in fairness, is his normal face.

1 year 36 weeks ago Lemonade

Our defense is unsound regardless of scheme.  If you're blitzing, someone is open.  If you're not blitzing, someone is open.  I'd blitz and run confusion packages all day.  Until we have dbs that can defend dudes or a DL that can create pressure on their own, we're stuck making lemonade.
