    Baseball Cleaned House

    Like I have said before, Donati isn't a former coach like Ray. He is a proper AD and won't have the emotional attachment/appreciation for fellow coaches muddy his decision making. This is his first big program reboot. Gonna be fun to see how he does.

    NASCAR driver Kyle Busch dies at 41

    Kyle embraced the villain/heel role. Undoubtedly one of a small number of drivers who could be considered the most talented to ever do it. As Darrell Waltrip said a few years ago, Kyle Busch was the only guy who could get three-wide all by himself.

    Pate: USC fans should be content with one 9-win season over any 3-4 year span

    Yeah, he's about the most honest college football guy. I really like his shows. He likes this program and would love to see us more successful, but he also calls it like he sees it. He's probably right, too. That doesn't mean we shouldn't want more, but reality is reality.

    Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia went completely undrafted

    Pavia was a scrappy QB who got more "fame" because of Vandy making some noise. His mom's presence made the whole thing a show/brand. The only show/brand the NFL is interested in is the NFL.

    OT…. Some believe the moon landing in 1969 was staged…. What you think

    I agree. I just know that is a goal. A team would be committing the better part of two years of their lives to being away from Earth. That's terrifying to me.

    NCAA exploring major eligibility rule change

    Five years from initial enrollment to play four seasons. Medical exemption only if season ending injury occurs in final year of eligibility, possibly cut that off if it occurs after 6-8 games. P4 to P4 Grad transfers allowed. P4 to P4 Transfer allowed once and only if position/coordinator/head...

    OT…. Some believe the moon landing in 1969 was staged…. What you think

    My $0.02 Yes, I believe we landed on the moon in '69 and made a few additional trips there. While I believe it could have been faked, I also believe it would've had to be just a small core of people in on it (the actual astronauts on those missions as well as another group of co-conspirators)...

    Most Overrated Movie

    He was one of the most brilliant people to ever work in the entertainment industry, a true genius and innovator. And lots of times, those types of people have trouble being normal, especially around normal people. I think he had a particularly hard time "suffering fools", answering mundane...

    Lou Holtz has passed

    That's not even a pot calling the kettle black. That's more like a cesspool calling a tea cup nasty.

    Watched the end of the Daytona 500 yesterday...

    No doubt. But they were all complicit. They all knew it was gonna happen. They were kinda employing the road course model where you calculate backwards on fuel. I remember in the 80s and early 90s when those tracks were similar to the likes of Michigan where there would be a 3-5 car lead pack...
