  1. That's $1.6 million per Federalist Paper
  2. I think I may have Jay's autograph from his A-ball year but can't remember if he was on the Spikes or went directly to Full Season A
  3. whoa. that's gotta be a record for a hitter, right? Isn't Stanton's AAV higher?
  4. Brazilian team Chapecoense involved in fatal plane crash http://www.espnfc.com/chapecoense-af/story/3007152/plane-flying-chapecoense-to-copa-sudamericana-final-crashes-in-colombia
  5. Don't get your hopes up, though. They aren't going to take a two-loss non-champ (UM) unless a whole lot of crap goes wonky on Saturday
  6. Lol I can't see any way 3 big ten teams get in especially when 2 of them didn't even play in the conference title game. I've been seeing Michigan Twitter coming up with scenarios where Michigan gets in but while they seem plausible I'm not going to get my hopes up at all. It's not happening For me, Michigan should be ahead of Penn State unless Penn St annihilates Wisconsin similar to what OSU did a couple years ago. At least by score, Wisconsin and Michigan were close. But Penn State winning a conference title doesn't outweigh a 49-10 beating. They lost to Iowa so that argument is moot. Penn State has just one conference loss to Michigan's two. PSU's second loss was a 3 point loss to Pitt back in week two. I don't think the Michigan head to head win holds up if PSU beats Wisconsin
  7. Yeah after he was attacked by the fan Probably, but the athlete is always going to get called out as the bad guy in that sort of situation
  8. Jabrill Peppers punch/face-shoved a fan after the game http://www.elevenwarriors.com/college-football/2016/11/77258/video-michigans-jabrill-peppers-punches-ohio-state-fan-after-losing-in-double-overtime
  9. Pitt played Syracuse today and a basketball game broke out http://www.espn.com/college-football/boxscore?gameId=400869500
  10. Well, Penn State, don't horsefeathers this up
  11. About theee weeks ago. He has the yips and can't complete anything
  12. Houston's QB went 47/67 for nearly 500 yards in the Cougar's loss.
  13. Hah. I've watched like one quarter of UCLA football (and watched no Bears football and about 2 minutes of Bulls basketball) ever since the playoffs started. Still can't get invested. I don't know how anyone can care about the Bears at all this year.
  14. The Red Turds?
  15. my favorite HCCF'ism was actually this one. http://www.northsidebaseball.com/archive/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=53971&p=2167288 i also liked his story where he told a story about rolling rocks at a rattlesnake to try to get it to move, it snapped at him, then he got offended because someone told him that he should've been bitten and everyone called him an idiot for provoking a poisonous snake. hahahahah he's a real underrated classic I think that was right after his house burned down
  16. J.T. Barrett has completely forgotten how to throw a football, which doesn't bode well for OSU unless they plan on trying to win with only 87 yards passing again
  17. WTF was he thinking? When did Peter Gammons start running sound for NFL games?
  18. If they make replicas, is that what Brian Matusz will get?
  19. I don't think Penn State will be in the discussion at all. But this is shaping up to be a chaotic playoff selection which is great if you want to see them expand to eight teams. Hearing them say how much they weigh winning conference championship games, but then picking a non-champ over the champ (who beat the non-champ) creates enough controversy to grease the skids for an eight game playoff (eventually)
  20. You would think they would lose to OSU, but here we are Hey I'm rooting for you guys at least as someone who can lessen the downside of potentially losing to OSU. I still don't get how the team we absolutely curbstomped earlier this year is in a position to win the division but I guess they must have gotten a lot better since then. That was the last game Penn State lost. I declared that they might not win another game all year after that embarrassment, but something clicked and they're rolling. Hopefully they don't poop the bed against Sparty
  21. I think they would lose to Wisconsin... You would think they would lose to OSU, but here we are
  22. So I should just accept that should Penn State win the Big Ten and the B1G championship game, they will still be bypassed by OSU for the playoffs.
  23. But is 2 more years, even at that age, for $12M a year really that big of a risk or a bad thing compared to 2/40? I'm pretty sure I'd rather 4/64 than 2/40. Esp since you can backload further on 4 years. That's why I never understand these let's go shorter term on a way inflated AAV ideas. Wouldn't you rather have a shorter (or majorly front loaded) deal knowing all your young stars have enormous paydays coming in 3-5 years? Why would you backload a contract?
  24. I like him. He was great as the MC at Cubs Convention. Seems like he'd fit in well with the current crop of players as well
  25. Fun fact: the last QB to win a game for Cleveland was Johnny Manziel
