Just know this about the 15-30-40 game scoring system in tennis. No one was trying to be cute or super complicated for the sake of appearing smart. Back in the day, before there were scoreboards and big screens, tennis games were scored using a pocket watch, hence the quarter hours making up the sco...

Great match and tournament. Medvedev went for the early knockout and was a couple points from breaking Sinner’s serve in the third set, which would’ve sealed it. Pretty much a role reversal of his semifinal match with Zverev. The longer the match went on, the worse it was going to be for Meddy. Now ...

Yes, sadly Jannik Sinner was an infant the last time an American male won a grand slam.

L45B

I’m secretly hoping you’re right Bat. I like Sinner and especially like what Cahill has done for his game. Him winning Sunday really makes things interesting for the year, and would add another true contender to the men’s dynamic, which is currently dominated by Djoker, an upcoming Alcaraz, and “occ...

I called my shots and was wrong on both. I stayed up and watched the end of the Sinner vs Djokovic match, only caught the end of the Medvedev vs Zverev match early in the morning east coast. Djokovic never even sniffed a break point on Sinner’s serve. Totally owned him. He is finally playing elite s...

17th seed, and got rolled in straight sets in the 2nd round. Disappointing result for him. Tiafoe playing at a high level, especially at Grand Slams, has its long list of dependencies. For one, he needs a loud crowd behind him or else he plays with little fire or purpose. Which pretty much rules ou...

The only American left, T. Fritz, will get rolled by NoVax. This didn’t quite happen. Fritz had two set points in the 1st set (lost in a tiebreaker), won the second but then got taken down the rest of the way. This was a far better showing than their quarterfinal match at the US Open in September (...

That seems to be the consensus amongst Tide fans. THE fan base is now convinced Sayin will be following Downs to Columbus and that leaves a possibility to convince Proctor also. I think tOSU will be preseason #1 next fall (not that it matters). But the o-line is still the weakest link. Proctor would...

Boom. Snatched him away after all. Watch out for the Buckeyes next fall. Thanks Sam

Looking to snatch Sayin next…

Go easy on Karine Jean. She probably forgot that the Lions don’t play home football games in a Pontiac anymore.

Proctor to Iowa.

tOSU would gladly take Downs so you don’t have to watch him play at Georgia.

I’ll c&p from the other thread but …

1. Last time Bama hired a coach out of the state of Washington, it did not go well

2. DeBoer has a familiar ring to it… hmmm.. sounds kinda like DuBose

L45B

Forgot to include DuBose in that list.

Or DeBoer. Close enough

Bama should give a hard look at:

Bobby Williams
Lame Kiffin
Coach O
Urban
Mike Shula

(while tOSU and others raid their cabinet)

Harbaugh’s a moron. UW can’t stop Edwards or Corum, it’s 4th &3, just load up and power up the middle until they stop you. Michigan’s receivers are the least talented in the playoff. Now UW is in the game. Would love to see TCUN step on their own dicks and cling to that 1/2 ‘97 title for a few m...

Solid take.

L45B

Hey Sam— Buckeyes just picked up your center who was f’ing up all those snaps against TCUN. Nonetheless he’s probably better than anyone we have on our line right now. Ryan Day is plucking some good transfers at the last minute, will be interesting come fall.

L45B

They moved the game to Houston because LA sucks. Fuck LA for the demise of the PAC. The Fuskies take this one fairly easily. Michigan hasn't played a team with an offense like this. They simply don't have the speed to stay with the PAC . Thoughts? The last 4-team CFP ends like it started— with a Bi...

I hear you, yet from the other side of the wall, Jayduck. scUM’s secondary is pretty damn good but I’m hoping Penix has a field day Monday night. I think UW having their running back in the lineup will be important for balance. I see the cheaters winning this but praying I’m dead wrong. Rewatching t...

Sticking with the topic at hand, I think that lefty Michael Penix is gonna torch scUM’s secondary on Monday.

FSU should have gotten in over TCUN, whose offense was more abysmal against Iowa (with their starting QB) than FSU’s offense was against Louisville (with their 3rd stringer). Anyone who watched the B1G championship saw that TCUN’s offense could not go the length of the field to score TDs. Took a nic...

Spot on, Sam! I thought Hairball would get off easy playing FSU but prefer the matchup with Bama. I think it’ll be three in a row semifinal losses for TCUN.

No chance the SEC gets left out. FSU needed to blow out Louisville. They’re gonna get punished for injuries, which is tragic but unfortunate when there’s five power conferences and four slots. Here’s how it will shake out. Hairball won’t want to play an SEC team in their backyard on a fast track (i...

Arizona and ASU As we reminisce the end of the Pac with Bill Walton, here’s some food for thought. Arizona State made it to the Rose Bowl twice in its time as a conference member, in ‘86 and ‘96 seasons. Head coach John Cooper won the Rose Bowl in both of those seasons (following losses to underdog...

Rack your take Jay! Looking forward to the Buckeyes’ visit to Eugene next year. It’s more fun when those games are rare and thus valued as a big deal. Conference realignment will ultimately dilute the rarity of these matchups and turns the regular season into college basketball— essentially worthles...
