  1. I don't know about overmatched. But for a couple of stupid turnovers they might be up 3 scores right now.
  2. I would think a guy who can turn Matt [expletive] McGloin into an NFL starting quarterback wouldn't care too much who he was working with. I'm not sure I'd take Clowney #1 though. People making a lot more money than me are tasked with figuring out what to make of his 2013.
  3. Bill O'Brien leaves PSU to go to the Texans, Schefter reports.
  4. Schefter reports that Bill O'Brien will go to the Texans.
  5. This Duke game is terrific.
  6. No one cares about 90% of these bowls nowadays. Way too many. Bowl season should be better starting next year with the retooled tie-ins and the increased flexibility to provide good matchups.
  7. Of the three potential Carolina round 2 opponents (I'm assuming Philly wins tonight), I definitely want to see San Francisco the most. Chip Kelly and Aaron Rodgers both scare me.
  8. Carolina gets the #1 seed if they win, SF wins, and Seattle loses. Slim chances, of course, but crazier things have happened. A win means a bye, so that's vital. Will have to do it without Smith, who's out for this game with a PCL sprain.
  9. I'm shocked you guys won that game on the last drive. I remember looking at Cam's facial expressions on that drive and thinking how pissed I'd be if I was a Panthers fan because he looked either confused or looked flippant about the situation he was in. Guess I was wrong. He rarely changes his facial expression much on the field outside of celebrations this year, I have noticed. I didn't read too much into how he looked. But after the previous few drives, to see him suddenly locked in, making great throws and standing tall in a collapsing pocket was a spectacular sight. Jesus, other people talk about the facial expressions of QBs too? I'm coming for Skip Bayless's job, he'd better watch his back.

  11. Stunning that a guy who threatened his teammate's rape accuser wouldn't be classy.
  12. 2.5 years ago: King is getting killed today. He was perhaps a bit hyperbolic, but Cam was pretty much [expletive] for 59 minutes in the biggest game of his life (and if Carolina had lost their playoff hopes would be on life support now as they would lose any tiebreaker to Arizona). I didn't have any problem with what he said.
  13. I didn't think too much of that hire but he did a great job this year even with Carson Palmer trying like hell to screw it up.
  14. ND's Jerian Grant booted out of school for an academic matter. That's one way to make the Ohio State loss sting less.
  15. Holy [expletive] Luke Kuechly. Holier [expletive] Cam Newton. A win over crappy Atlanta from the #2 seed. I'm stunned.
  16. I thank the Basketball Gods that my cousin inadvertently spoiled the game (I was recording it) by texting me about it. Probably were owed one of those after the Louisville madness last February. Oh, well.
  17. Much as I would loathe having Paul Pierce on the Bulls, any opportunity to get Boozer's contract off the books has to be explored.
  18. First time in 99 years (back when Fielding Yost was leading the boycott). The 2015 schedule looks a little light (Temple, UMass and Wake in the same year...oy), but overall some pretty good work. Swarbrick said in the press conference that getting SEC teams on the schedule beyond 2016 will be a priority, and that's part of the reason for the reduction in B1G games. I'm all for that.
  19. On a recent Simmons podcast, his guest (Cousin Sal Iacono) said the NFL had phased them out, but I have no idea why. It flies in the face of the NFL's mission to run every single day of the sports year.
  20. Here's to New Orleans playing badly outdoors. The gulf between #2 seed and having to go on the road to face Megatron, the Bears' offense or potentially Aaron Rodgers in round 1 is vast.
  21. Wait, Brian Boitano is not openly gay? I don't think he is gay at all. Contrary to popular belief. He just came out today, just to prove you wrong, I'm sure. :twisted:
  22. Future scheduling tidbits coming out today: Florida will play Michigan at AT&T Stadium in 2017. It'll be the farthest Florida has traveled for a regular-season game since 1991. Notre Dame and Purdue will play at Lucas Oil Sept. 13 next season, then not again until 2020. With Purdue now off the schedule in 2015, ND will now have 12 games scheduled in both seasons, which means maybe we'll get the schedule announced sometime before August. Purdue scheduled a home and home with Virginia Tech - West Lafayette in 2015, Blacksburg in 2023 - and will soon finalize a home and home with Missouri - Columbia in 2017, West Lafayette in 2018. Michigan pushes its game with Ball State from 2016 to 2020 (interesting only to me).
  23. In the NFC, Seattle is the only team that's actually clinched a playoff spot. The #1 seed (Seattle if they win 1 more time) and #2 seed (NFC South champion) are more or less settled, but none of the four others are even close. This is going to be a wild final couple of weeks.
  24. It's spelled Gerry. There was a bit of a hubbub when the Sandusky scandal originally broke because he was getting hateful Tweets from morons who don't know how to spell (or read enough to know who they were insulting)
  25. If I were them, I'd throw the kitchen sink at Briles after all these high-voltage potential hires don't pan out. Seems like he'd be a natural at UT.
