    Huge soccer news…

    I haven't kept up with the commentary on this, but I'm sure people are upset Trump got involved. I think the whole fiasco reeks of corruption whether there was political pressure or not. Im not upset he was been ruled eligible, I just dont like that it tarnishes any further US victories. I...

    Huge soccer news…

    Would be helpful.if FIFA would come out and say the red card was unwarranted, or at leadt explain its devision in some way. Of course, people would still pick apart the explanation and bemoan FIFA's long standing corruption, but some clarity would be nice.

    Huge soccer news…

    FIFA really had no choice. The USMNT's next move was a temporary injunction from a court.

    Here is the deal with so-called American soccer fans…..

    Baseball can regain some followers with one simple rule change: Batters keep their bat after hitting the ball and may use it however they like while running the bases.

    Television viewer numbers for NCAA sports

    Promoting the school is just one purpose of college athletics. Alumni relations and student recruitment are other purposes. You have to make sure you distribute the funding in ways that make the alums happy

    Mexicans being Mexican

    They are playing "Cieto Lindo" at the stadium, or, as people my age know it, "The Frito Bandito Song." (Ayyy, ay, ay, ay...) I honestly thought that was just a song mariachi bands played for gringos.

    No comments on the Dutch going down to.

    I have a friend named "Holland." She drove us through a Starbucks Drive Thru once, and told the guy on the speaker her name was "Holland, like the country!" When she got her cup, they had typed her name as "The Netherlands"

    Who was your favorite OC/DC?

    OC Watson Brown. He was just a great offensive coach. We ran multiple offenses in games, but the players rarely looked confused or disorganized. I was always surprised he didnt have a more successful career. DC Ellis Johnson. Croom's teams would have been far worse without Johnson.

    CBS Sports: Mississippi State to finish dead last in the SEC.

    Obviously remains to be seen how Sumrall does on the field, but so far he had really won over the UF fan base, and the fans were highly critical of the hire at first. Player retention and recruiting has gone well, but they may have more to do with their new football GM. Stricklin tried to get...

    CBS Sports: Mississippi State to finish dead last in the SEC.

    Why does it have to be "dead" last? Isn't just regular last bad enough?

    Uruguay say get your own ride home.

    Could be worse. They could be Colombians who lost a drug lord a big bet.

    OT - For those that still enjoy a cold beer, what’s good these days?

    Im off IPAs for a while, sticking mainly with pilsners. Stella is my staple at bars, with Creature Comforts' BIBO in my fridge. I also like Prince of Pilsen at home, and recently had MAMA's Little Yellow Pils, which was excellent. On a related note, I tried this yesterday on a whim: Not...

    The Mississippi State fanbase I know when it comes to NIL

    Like some others said, I guess Im a 5 but with the caveat that I dont mind paying players, I just think the current system is unsupportable. Get things under control and im a Group 1 lean.

    OT: Late to the party, Deadwood

    Every time I see Garrett Dillahunt in something, I think to myself "It's the c0cksucker who killed Wild Bill!". I loved that Deadwood brought him back the next season to play a different character.

    And here come the lawsuits regarding eligibility...

    The question was whether the court had authority, not whether the decisions were right. The NCAA grants exceptions in medical hardship waivers all the time. And the NCAA has a sliding scale for disciplinary actions in gambling cases. That opens the door for questions of fairness in applying...
