I feel the need to take this opportunity to gripe about this week's schedule. The Thursday night games are N Illinois vs directional Michigan, Temple and Miami OH, and VT at ECU. Did MLB bribe ESPN to show crappy games during Game 7 of the World Series because MLB needs the extra...

Last week, I guess I was just hoping for excitement and picked a bunch of underdogs to keep things close or give us some upsets. Instead, I got a 1-6 week for my trouble. So I'm back to .500, and refocusing for better results. Too bad the slate of games this week is pretty poor...

One of the greatest pleasures in life is saying “I told you so,” even if it’s 16 years later and the target is retired. So here goes: Paul Tagliabue, you were wrong about Jacksonville, and I told you so. In 1993, when the NFL decided to expand from 28 to 30 teams, five...
