    A silver lining to this crapfest:

    Yes, it is. College football is a full on sprint towards money, recruiting hot beds and unicorn coaches. PSU is in the race, but with a half ton piano on its back.

    Poll: Are you done with Campbell?

    If we were all judged by this metric (first setback in a new job) many of us would lack the money to purchase the computer that allows access here.

    I wonder if Coach Cambell should have focused on keeping last year's roster together...

    Teams are permitted to get better. Looking at Wisconsin's prior year's results and expecting similar performance, in this age of player movement, is not persuasive. Wisconsin is not a top 20 team and the loss was unexpected and disheartening. But I would be careful ranking it up there with...

    Thought this was an interesting read

    Back in the old Plotit.com days there were a few posts by State College insiders with hints of a Catagory 5 (my words) scandal on campus involving the football program. If memory serves, this was before 1998.

    Is it just me, but are ticket sales lagging?

    This issue is subject to Occam's Razor. Attendance numbers are inversely proportional to the cost of attendance. The stadium improvements will be very nice. The cost of enjoying them not so much. When the outlay of money for attending a game in State College exceeds the monthly mortgage...

    2026 Steelers Thread

    Plain and simple, his mechanics and thought processing break down in tension filled moments. His hurry up offense in the last minute of the Bills preseason game was eerily familiar to the end of the Notre Dame game in the Orange Bowl. He looked to be throwing the ball up hoping someone would...

    PSU v. Pitt 1982

    The 1981 Pitt team was far superior to the 1982 team. 82 was a 9-3 team with internal issues exacerbated by a new coach and the same old booster problems that ran Jackie Sherrill out of town.

    2026 Penguins

    The goaltending answer is with their farm team. They need to seriously consider bringing him up.

    RIP Chuck Norris....

    He refused to be declared dead. He is only perpetually resting.

    OT: Your best celebrity encounters?

    Worked out with Franco in a hotel gym in Vegas. Asked him if he played HS ball in New Jersey. Golfed with Ben Roethlisberger in a tournament in Georgia. All we talked about was his podcasting. Chatted with Arnold Palmer on the veranda at Laurel Valley. He graciously signed a print for me...

    FC/OT: WaPo shuttering sports section….

    Put me in the camp that more news reporting is better. I don't need a fainting couch because a source like the Post may be slanted one way or the other politically. Just this morning one can read about a scientific shift on global warming, a story about a legal immigrant detained for a month...

    “Sources: Bill Belichick will not be a first-ballot Hall of Famer”

    Do you think Bill Walsh benefited from having Joe Montana? I don't understand this argument. I am no fan of BB but the record of achievement is undeniable and unmatched. Not a good look for the voters. Bud Grant is a first ballot HOF coach and he has no rings. The guy with 6 as a HC is not...

    FC/OT: Tomlin stepping down.

    Some decent points but overly harsh in the total assessment. He is a Hall of Fame coach. His downfall and the reason he needed to go is roster construction. It was his Achilles heel. Steeler draft picks the past 5-7 years have been unusually poor. He was getting next to nothing from his...

    Besides PSU '94 FB, what was or is the greatest College FB team?

    Maybe, but I don't think we are ranking the smartest teams ever.
