    OSU and JPMorgan Chase Partnership

    Draftkings! I'll be interested to see if any school would make the jump to a gambling site or alcohol. Unlikely due to the backlash, but plenty of $$$ out there for anyone that did.

    OT: The Open

    Unfortunately, I'll likely go to my grave questioning if Judge Smails would have chosen me as one of the few worthy enough to join his establishment.

    ‘99 MINNY. [insert the face here] vs. Penn State on btn now.

    Punting from their 32. Ugh. And that catch on 4th down was even more flukey than I remembered. Painful.

    Does Pat know?

    Unfortunately, that's not actually true. It might have been almost full for a late-season weekend game, but that's about it. As I've pointed out, we played a huge game as the 8th ranked team in the country in 2020 in front of a half-empty building in February. There isn't another school in...

    OT: The Open

    Not when a player was in a situation like this…it’s not normal for a player to back into bushes, branches, high rough, etc to improve their lie/position. Most guys are very careful in these instances.

    Aren't they playing against other D2 schools in the Northeast/Pennsylvania? If so, are they really consistently playing at a high level?

    BWI Sports Betting Thread

    Personally, I found the lines on World Cup games to be sharper than ever. I didn't bet nearly as much as some prior World Cups (mostly 2018 and 2014...2022 was very low volume due to the bad timing in the winter for me). Bring on the Gold Cup, Olympics, and Women's World Cup where I have a...

    Zero of course. It was a different landscape in 2020.

    OT: The Open

    You've never seen a golfer not walk behind his ball? It happens all the time when guys are near hazards, in the bushes, near a tree, etc. Players are really good about taking the least invasive path and not pushing back bushes/branches/long grass to avoid improving their lie. This instance...
