I thought PSU and Illinois were generally considered the biggest party schools in the Big Ten
-
Even then, they probably won't. The extra roster slots will be filled by league-minimum players while some high-priced superstars will suddenly be exposed as incomplete ballplayers (or have nowhere to play; if the DH suddenly disappeared, what would the Red Sox do with David Ortiz, for example?)
-
Colin Cowherd thinks Rutgers is the best choice, which means its probably the worst choice. He cited the NYC market, which goony and several others have already explained doesn't really exist for "New Jersey State". His other reasons are accessibility of the campus (lame, as State College, Bloomington, West Lafayette, etc. aren't exactly booming metropolitan areas), campus size, enrollment size, and academic standing.

apparently the Red Sox are working on contract language that protects them in case of pre-existing injury -
But his name is awesome

Ron Artest's ridiculously bad shot selection is keeping the Bulls in this game

Local paper had an article about this today, and said one of the driving forces behind this is that Big Ten AD's (and presidents) don't like the fact that Big Ten football is out of the national spotlight 3 weeks before the rest of college football is over. Adding a bye week next year at least gets them to play after Thanksgiving, but there is a strong desire to have the Big Ten on a national stage along with the other BCS conferences who have a title game, with the game likely to take place either in Indy or Soldier Field

Santo signs for 3 more years on WGN Radio
Derwood replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
He wanted a 4th year, but Hendry said he didn't have a leg to stand on -
agreed. A division with OSU, Michigan, PSU and Pitt would be so awesome

OTHER DUDE'S WEINERS

I don't see the need to split Ohio State and Michigan. They'd still play "the game" as the final regular season game each year, and if/when Michigan becomes good again, that game may be decide who goes to the championship game. It's not like the SEC said "we HAVE to split up Alabama and Auburn" (for example).

Cameron signs with Red Sox
Derwood replied to seanhopper's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
new idea for an Onion article: "MLB folds after Red Sox sign every player in baseball" -
Rankings of what? Quality of pizza on campus? http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/national-universities-rankings

Yes. It's all on a website that doesn't exist anymore and in a paper that no one is allowed seeing

Heisman winners have a pretty bad NFL track record over the past 20 or so years as well. There are exceptions, but the Heisman seems to be an NFL curse ETA: Winners since 1990: 1990: Ty Detmer (career backup) 1991: Desmond Howard (don't even remember who he played for) 1992: Gino Toretta (lol) 1993: Charlie Ward (undrafted, played in NBA) 1994: Rashan Salaam (ouch) 1995: Eddie George (really good) 1996: Danny Wuerffel (career backup) 1997: Charles Woodson (good) 1998: Ricky Williams (4:20) 1999: Ron Dayne (eh) 2000: Chris Weinke (bad) 2001: Eric Crouch (bad) 2002: Carson Palmer (good) 2003: Jason White (who?) 2004: Matt Leinart (bad start, stuck on bench) 2005: Reggie Bush (good when healthy) 2006: Troy Smith (backup) 2007: Tim Tebow (TBD) 2008: Sam Bradford (TBD) 2009: Mark Ingram (TBD)

Bears now have the same record as the Seahawks, Panthers and Bills. LOLOLOLOLOLOOL

When they cut to GB/CHI after the Saints game, the first thing I see is: Chicago with the ball, 12 penalties, 0 timeouts. I felt like I got a pretty good idea about the game right there
