    No taxes on NIL earnings

    I’m sure this would fly in Illinois 😂

    Colorado QB Passes Away

    Sad news. Article says the Tesla rolled down an embankment and landed right-side up but caught on fire. I have read other stories of EVs that get in non fatal accidents that become fatal when the batteries catch fire and occupants can’t get out (not sure if that was the case here). Seems this is...

    OT: Lindsay Vonn crashes, knee likely permanently wrecked

    I wonder if they’ve studied skiers. It’s not considered a contact sport but there are lots of high speed crashes throughout their lifetimes and even if they don’t land on their head, bouncing around on the snowpack at 50 mph must cause some contre coup concussions. The fasciotomy is a...

    Way too early season predictions...

    8-4 would be incredible with this schedule and the coaching + personnel turnover.

    Bears moving to Indiana? 😆

    The Bears own the Arlington site if I read correctly, paying 200 million for it, and they also paid for the demolition of the racetrack facilities. They must’ve sunk a huge ton of money into both physical and paper site studies/engineering/designs/whatever which are specific to that stadium...

    Bears moving to Indiana? 😆

    It must be a looooot of taxes, or they’re too cheap to pay them. To give up an easily accessible site in the center of a lot of the affluent suburbs, with a Metra stop and a few minutes from ORD to the middle of an industrial wasteland in the midst of lower income suburbs?

    Illinois hires recently “retired” Montana HC as their new DC

    Interesting move, he has not been a DC before. Montana was the 50th ranked scoring defense in FCS. Also interesting that Illinois’ DC left to be DBs coach at ND, I didn’t know that.

    Detroit bowl game canceled after 29 years

    Bowl games in warm major cities would seemingly be in better shape. That being said, air travel seems like more of a pain and expense these days and moreso around the holidays. Actually the Detroit bowl iterations were a pretty good setup, a driveable distance for most of the B1G vs MAC...

    OT: Lindsay Vonn crashes, knee likely permanently wrecked

    She qualified for the Olympic team, and it’s not as if that’s subjective like figure skating, the it’s pretty black and white based on time. So it’s her prerogative to race unless a physician disqualifies her. If you felt someone else was more deserving then they should have skied faster than...

    Big visitor weekend on tap for the Wildcats

    Sitting on tarmac at ORD in near whiteout conditions, hope everyone gets in!

    B1G sched release tomorrow (27th) at 5:30

    We had a disastrous start to 2025, a disappointing back stretch losing multiple 1 score games, and still ended up 6-6. We really should be able to get to 6-6.

    Cats would’ve had 4 theoretical CFP appearances if 24 teams from the start

    I do think 24 teams would be way too much. Logistically for one, just too long of a season. But it seems like there’s just more of a depth and talent drop off in college than NFL to make it at all likely that an 18-24 seed will have a shot at winning like 4 playoff games. I realize Miami was...

    Cannot verify if this is accurate but if so we stack up pretty well over the last decade somehow.

    Embarrassing...

    This is some great history, guys!
