So the F1 majordomos don't think that an Andretti sponsored team would be competitive. Hmmm, if teams must be competitive, then the grid should have (maybe) ten starters.

The Florida Panthers, of the National Hockey League, are restricting sales of tickets to their second round Stanley Cup games to residents of the United States. The announcement is intended to block Canadians from buying game tickets online. Seems like this could be illegal but who is going to...

Absolutely incredible finish by Chastain. I've never seen anything like that.

With the Panthers unloading McCaffery and Anderson, the deadline season is open. It seems that most of the major names being bandied about are either edge rushers, wide receivers and running backs. Do you have any thoughts about who your favorite team might trade away or try to obtain? A...

In the 25 years before COVID, I averaged at least one trip per year to Vegas. Many of those were in the fall and included Saturdays. On those days, I fondly recall going to the sports books to watch multiple football games on their many screens. A couple of beers and a few small bets, filled my...

Just stumbled onto this on AMC this weekend and was pretty excited. For those who aren't familiar, it is based on the Navajo Tribal police officers Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee. They were characters in a series of books by Tony Hillerman, which was one of my favorite series. I was reading...

Just heard the story that after 20 players and 5 coaches have left the program, the University is investigating Harsin's conduct. Before yesterday, I didn't know there was a problem. Now it sounds like he'll be fired shortly. I can't recall any player abuse stories or other misconduct. Can...

If you've ever bought wine and/or liquor, you are probably aware that they often offer rebates on purchases. The instructions are written in type-face so tiny, I have to use a magnifying glass. The standard requirements are always: ...handwritten ...legible ...complete Then they provide space...

Sure to be an "unsportsmanlike conduct" penalty next year.

Just read today that Apple+ has commissioned a series based on the Nick Herron series of London based Slough House novels, the first of which is "Slow Horses." Gary Oldman has the lead role while Kristin Scott Thomas portrays his nenesis at MI-5. I've read all the Slough House novels and found...

Netflix' latest offering is unlike any movie I can recall in that it has a group of the most unlikeable characters. The two principal antagonists are pure evil and every supporting character is more or less evil in their own way. The doctor, the assistant, the nursing home administrator and...

The FCS conferences that postponed their fall seasons get back to business this weekend. Unfortunately, without espn+ there are no games available to watch. espnu has games scheduled in April, after basketball ends. Maybe they'll add some games in late March when the BB regular seasons end.

Brad Keselowski causes the final lap crash that ended teammate Joey Logano's chance to win the Daytona 500 and then comments: “I wanted to make the pass to win the Daytona 500 and it ended up really bad. I don’t feel like I made a mistake, but I can’t drive everybody else’s car. So...

I can't recall an off-season that promises more shake-ups at the QB position. There are probably 22 of the 32 teams that will, or would consider, making a change at QB. I consider the Jags/Lawrence and Cowboys/Prescott as set. Playoff teams like Tampa and Pittsburgh have to be thinking about...

I can't get away from thinking that the Colts are going to try to lure Andrew Luck back behind center. Seems to me that he'd put them in the top three or four teams in the AFC. Then I don't know how hard they have been trying and what his reactions have been. If not, it seems that they should...

Was the 14 team playoff a single season change or will that be permanent?

Although this likely applies to many players, I'll use Dylan Cozens as the subject of this thread. Cozens finishes the World Juniors tonight and if the Sabres decide to bring him to Buffalo, he would have to quarantine for 14 days before practicing or playing. That would mean, he'd mot be...

In my opinion, more than half the NFL teams are facing an impending QB crisis. And this includes six playoff teams. The Saints, Colts, Steelers, Redskins, Bears and Bucs will have unsettled off seasons planning on who will be their QB next season (well maybe the Bucs have another year of...

parents are not allowed to attend their game. Irish's Kelly threatens CFP boycott if no families Yes I know this is pure posturing at this time but come Sunday, if Kelly still is holding out, should the committee take that into consideration when configuring the playoff pairings. Assuming...

BC has become the first school that has decided not to participate in a bowl game this year because of COVID. I wonder if this could be a first of many. Players might be tired of the frequent testing and restrictions on activities....and just want to go home. Boston College first to say no...

With the restrictions of traveling into Canada, the NHL is proposing a temporary realignment that would have a seven team Canadian division, along with 8 team US divisions in the east, central and west. This certainly makes a lot of sense. I'd add a schedule that has all back to back games for...

While watching the weekly CFP show last night, I was stunned when Kirk Herbstreit suggested that Michigan might cancel their game with tOSU. It sounded (to me) like Herbstreit was implying that Michigan would do it in order deny the Buckeyes the six games required to qualify for the B1G...

BYU was negotiating to play Washington after the Apple Cup was cancelled but then the PAC XII (correctly) scheduled Washington to play Utah after the Utes game with ASU was cancelled. So why not Wisconsin now that their game with Minny is cancelled. Surely Wisky needs as many games as possible.
