Taylor's starting to look like she's pushing forty.
Tech gave Brent Key the massive extension and he's lost 6 out of his last 7 games.
Hogs vs Utah is such a random matchup.
Without the drops in the first half Texas could have won by a couple of scores.
UCF does all they can to frick up in the red zone then pulled a TD out of their arse. Down by 5 with less than 3 minutes left at Pitt.

Is there any governing body in sports that fans like, whether it's a league or international federation.

The schools own the teams so they're gonna have the power whether it's through the NCAA or conferences or some other structure. And if you own the product, you're not a leech. Governing bodies, whether for-profit or non-profit are vehicles that represent the collective ownership.

Jimbo can't compute how coaching can happen without technology.
I used to work for a power company and if a transformer exploded and spewed oil, a crew wasn't allowed to come close to it until oil samples were sent to the lab to make sure it wasn't an old one that contains carcinogenic chemicals.
Once they got the kinks worked out and the racing stopped looking like a video game the new regs have delivered some quality GPs.
Louisville always has cheerleaders that seem a little slutty.
It seems obvious that what the Big 10 review did was set the clock at 9 seconds because the ref asked for that time left on the game clock before the play and then ran it down during the video review.

Because 9 changed to 8 in less than a second on the broadcast video the play probably took less than 9 seconds.

If NBC had it's camera on the stadium clock and you think that should be official then WMU got robbed.

If you think that the official review should have determined whether or not the play took the full 9 seconds then Michigan probably converted a legitimate Hail Mary.

It's like Shrodinger's Zapruder film.

Have you considered that perhaps when they stopped the clock at 9 it was about to switch to 8?


That's why I put probably in the title but the ref says after the spike to reset the game clock to 9 seconds. That to me means 9 seconds on the dot.

The F1 broadcast never fails to disappoint.
Downvote away if you want to shoot the messenger, I don't care who won, but watch how fast the clock NBC showed goes from 9 to 8.

It goes from 9 to 8 almost immediately, not after a full second and this video shows the play from the snap. So if the official clock started at the full 9 seconds, it would have given the play more time than the broadcast clock.

The play before was a spike at 11 seconds so the game clock was set to 9 seconds because 2 seconds is taken off after a spike.

Yeah he's not a big guy. He played through it but got pretty beat up as the season wore on last year.

:She raised $875 million".........Safe to assume that with basically all the players in the League ardently disliking her ( go back & look back at all their comments about her during the CBA negotiations ) she did not have the players' backing. It was "stated", numerous times during those negotiations, that Clark & Reese played huge roles during those negotiations, specially in regards to improving the players traveling in charter planes as opposed to all the inconveniences in flying on regular domestic planes. They also played huge roles in improving the players hotel residences.

Of course she wasn't going to give the players everything they wanted because she knew that somebody's got to pay for it. That's the problem, the players want all the perks when the league is still being run on a budget.

Good luck making that work with a commissioner that doesn't have her eye constantly on the bottom line.
quote:

Possibly the worst commissioner I have ever seen, and I have witnessed Sankey the past few days, so that is saying something


She raised $875 million for the league. Pulling that off has got to have given her one of the best terms as commissioner in the history of sports.

She's an accountant, was a former CEO at Deloitte which is exactly what a league like that needs but of course it's something a group of women would never understand.
