Maybe he is the last of the old guard to lead the church. I disagreed with a lot of things he did (and did not do) and said, but he deserved a LOT of credit for being humble enought to retire; the first in 600 years to have done so. In my mind, that took a lot of courage on his part to actually do that. https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2022/12/31/pope-benedict-death-passionate-defender-church-and-faith/10974488002/

Georgia and Michigan win easily today. I just think Georgia is that much better than any other team this season. TCU got beat up in the conference title game. This late in the year, players do not really fully recover. I love the competitiveness in Duggan, but Michigan is a team like none they have seen this year. Georgia beats Michigan in the title game, by two scores. I think the Michigan o line will keep them in the game.

Walters created a path for so many to follow. RIP https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/barbara-walters-trailblazing-tv-icon-dies-93/story?id=41435083&fbclid=IwAR0ecF6EzFsmn0_syqG3hJPxSbyC-PNYnNUsHfan44-SmSn52e4_zMu_6-k

It was a HORRIBLE read by Buchner. he looked at the receiver the entire time....had time to scan the field, and see that safety. he would have also seen the receiver to his right that had a big size advantage on the CB.

That was awesome....thanks for sharing.

The Legend, Pele passes at the age of 82; what an incredible ambassador for the game of soccer. RIP https://www.espn.com/sports/soccer/story/_/id/29013931/legendary-life-brazilian-fifa-soccer-pele-photos

lol...rumors here are fine. They are all pros and paid very well.

Could probably afford to be a bit pickier. I am not sure there are many assets Houston or Indy have that would really improve a team.

This goes back to a point that has been mentioned often; the real recuiting starts after kids commit.

Thanks for the heads up...It must have slipped passed me.

The conversation is well under way here: We want to stick with current HS players here on the main page.

Going into this weekend, the Packers chances were slim for even staying alive in the playoff race. Everything that had to happen this weekend happened lol. As Lloyd Christmas would say......so you're telling me there's a chance?

This may be the biggest problem in all that has happened. There are things the NCAA could do to control this type of thing.

No question about that......there are many adults who don't really think it means much either.

The real recruiting begins at the point a kid commits. It eliminates a lot of programs who made offers that did not really have a chance of landing a recruit. They find out what schools were serious about their offers, and now, who comes with the best offer. Kids also know full well that they can easily back out of commitments.

Yes it is

Just had a conversation with a friend about that very thing. Trying to keep the guys you have on the roster becomes a bigger deal as well.

Wasn't it Saban who claimed that NIL and the transfer portal would ruin the game? My claim was that at least NIL money made legal what he had been doing for years.

We were brought up getting puzzles for Christmas. Just a few years ago, I bought a bunch for the family; the plan is to rotate them through. I still enjoy doing them, but have had a couple whoppers lately that were not as much fun.

There is that too

A guy with godzilla as his profile picture telling someone to grow up.....sorry, had to chuckle at that. 🤣

Do you think BC has room on campus now to build a home stadium? Not sure about zoning issues, but the current spot listed on google maps as the soccer practice field looks to be big enough. I am not sure about the possibility of putting a stadium where the current soccer field is, or if there is room for putting a combined field/stadium in either spot.

But WHO is Mary?????
