    OT: Mets 2026 Season Thread

    Freddy on the hill tonight. Could the Mets have a 3 game winning streak on the horizon? Dare to dream!

    OT: The Official David Stearns Please Resign Thread

    Even without Soto, this lineup shouldn't lose 12 in a row. And the starting pitching hasn't even been that bad. This is downright comical.

    Basketball Rutgers Basketball lands Manhattan transfer forward Will Sydnor

    I agree this team is better than last year's team. But I fear the rest of the Big 10 is improving, particularly the teams we beat last season. 14-20 last year. Can this team be 3 games better and finish .500? I'll say yes, but they can't have any hiccups before conference play starts.

    Will Rutgers Move on From Schiano

    Anybody have an understanding of why we pay so much more for "support staff" than the other teams? @Fat Koko ?

    The Big 10 says "Cha-Ching!"

    The Big 10 splits the money equally among all members, even if they didn't make the tournament.

    The Big 10 can complete a major trifecta tonight.

    Per ESPN National Championships by the Big 10 in the past year. Men's Basketball - Michigan Women's Basketball - UCLA Football - Indiana (3rd year in a row the conference has won the CFP) Wrestling - Penn State Women's ice hockey - Wisconsin Men's water polo - UCLA Men's soccer - Washington...

    Knight interviewing at UNC

    For those that want a new offense but don't want to lose Francis, this is a best case scenario. It will be interesting to see how this goes. Knight is a fine recruiter, but isn't a few extra NIL dollars going to trump great recruiting? Maybe coaching acumen is more important than recruiting...

    Rutgers Athletics Spring Cleaning Sale at SHI Stadium

    I live an hour away. If this was a season ticket holder benefit, I'd sign up and go. But I'm not making the effort under these circumstances. For those that wait in line and do this, I hope you get some good stuff.

    The Big 10 can complete a major trifecta tonight.

    Trifecta Accomplished!! I'm not sure wrestling or hockey would be considered the 4th biggest sport but getting those titles would be great as well.

    RIP CALRU66

    I wonder what he would have to say about the NIL era. Probably nothing good.

    OT: Worn out by Rutgers sports

    No question we are some battered fans. But I'm not worn out. It's just part of the fabric of who I am. On the plus side, I'm not a Jets fan.

    The Big 10 can complete a major trifecta tonight.

    Indiana won the NC in football. UCLA won the NC in Women's Hoops. Michigan has a chance to make it a trifecta in the 3 major sports for the conference. That's a big deal and as the saying goes, a high tide raises all ships. I'm sure rooting for Michigan is as hard for most of you as it is...
