  1. Pete was very smart, but I saw him as more of a “Gary Dee of sports talk”.
  2. He ran an entertaining show. Much better than most of the current locals not named Carman, or Rizzo BITD. Loved his radio shows, TV shows, the How Come Quickies, he was very knowledgeable but didn’t beat you over the head with it. It’s a sad day.
  3. Just end it already
  4. Ali gets T’d
  5. Down by 14. Just that quick.
  6. I wonder when Baseball will post their schedule.
  7. ^unfortunately that's probably based in part with David Egbo being listed on their roster.
  8. If this works out and becomes the new norm, the playoffs could be played in nice weather, and the College Cup could be played anywhere there was a reasonable bid.
  9. Would make for an interesting "double header".
  10. Nice win!!
  11. His height might be the one negative.
  12. They had me worried the first 3/4 of the game
  13. I e been saying that for awhile. Take the P5 conference champions (making those games more interesting). 1-2 “at large” and 1-2 G5 programs. If that made more money than the current system, they would be doing it...
  14. True, the other schools can make bank at the bowl games. But there are no Cinderella stories or Gonzaga’s in the football playoffs. That’s not what the network$ want.
  15. Same elite teams every year. And everyone else just follows along. It rEminds me of the NBA in elitism. OK, “dynastic “. The NCAA College puts 19% of the basketball programs in the post season. It puts 3% of the football teams in. Why? Follow the money. In football the tv network wants those three team$ in, along with one other legacy school with zillions of fans. That 4th team can rotate, but nobody else gets in. TCU? Cincinnati? Go find a mega- fanba$e and come back and see us. There will never be a level playing field in football with the NCAA in charge. College basketball isn’t as centered around a handful of legacy programs. They have their favorites of course but in hoops there’s the bracketology, the upsets, the drama. They make their annual budget on the Tournament. All 63 games.
  16. Thank you so much. I'd like to thank the Academy... Relevance: Same campus, etc. MBB would do well to pick FB's brain on policies to keep players and staff Negative.
  17. I'm really surprised the football team got in all of their games.
  18. Lucas Zelarayán is worth every penny!! And here's the correct banner:
  19. Caleb does it again!!!! On the 10th anniversary of his National Championship with the Zips, and with his second team in the MLS!!!
  20. dad gummit...
  21. Bad news, Darlington Nagbe is out with a positive Coronavirus test. Santos tested positive as well... https://www.dispatch.com/story/sports/mls/columbus-crew/2020/12/10/columbus-crew-darlington-nagbe-pedro-santos-out-mls-cup/3890337001/?fbclid=IwAR0A_p37yo7xyejnH1bzW-3M1A_DuTysEM5JmDutvpIXD04_XJhgD9MmIj0
  22. Darlington, Scott, and Teal all played significant time. Darlington had the better game. Bruce Arena is getting up there in age, I remember watching him coach in the inaugural MLS season.
  23. That game reminded me of the old saying, "When a stoppable force meets a movable object".
  24. First off, the virus was found to start on the Wuhan Peninsula marketplaces. Specifically where humans eat bats. The Chinese government tried to hide the fact they had an epidemic, but it spread. Second, it’s not the death rate of the virus that causes the strain on our health system. It’s the amount of hospital admissions, specifically ICU admissions that the authorities look at. When hospitals fill up and elective procedures get cancelled, that affects us all. Cleveland Clinic wanted to turn an education hall into a makeshift ICU, but there were over 900 nurses off work with the illness. The virus might not have a huge death rate, but when it decimates the health care system, we all are affected.
