    Falcons finally admit their mistake, waive QB/TE/WB Feleipe Franks

    He sat on his butt and collected a paycheck the last few years as a project TE. They even tried him as water boy. https://bloggingdirty.com/posts/atlanta-falcons-finally-move-on-from-arthur-smith-s-project-quarterback-01hrsneeseb1

    Two wild card games slated today with the later one, Miami at Kansas City at 8 p.m., to be held in subzero arctic conditions, making it effectively the Frozen Fish vs. the Selfish Swifties. Have you ever tried doing anything in subzero conditions? You aren't any colder after the temps drop...

    #4 Alabama vs. #1 Michigan

    The first half of a national semifinals doubleheader. Live from Pasadena ... the Roooooose Bowl. Michigan favored by 2. I'm taking Bama. (Edit: Hope a separate thread is okay with admin/mods. I figured the game deserved its own thread considering the magnitude.)

    Favorite FSU-UF moments at the Swamp

    Something to make you think a little since it removes the matchups at the Sugar Bowl and the christening of Ron Zook Field. I'll go with the obvious, the come-from-behind 32-29 thriller in '97 as well as the bludgeoning of Casey Weldon in the 14-9 slugfest of '91. Believe it or not, the loss...

    Donovan's NBA future looking uncertain

    His future in Chicago is cloudy after a 4-8 start that has onlookers already wondering if he's lost the locker room. Things have gone south since persistent knee troubles sidelined point guard Lonzo Ball a year ago. The team is mired in a shooting slump. The Bulls have made the playoffs in only...

    Dear Ben

    Want to get someone's attention? Fill their email tray with poorly worded requests to ditch an expensive, dim-witted employee. Which brings me to the point of our football coach. He's not only expensive, he's not exactly Einstein. He proved that on fourth-and-24 inches from the Florida 34...

    Dave's Not Here

    Whatever happened to the idea of simple names? Like Larry, Don, Dick? Why does everyone now have to be Oliver, Lucas, Liam? I've never heard of a Communist named Fred. I know plenty who go by Aria. What goes?

    Best College Quarterback of All Time

    The main sports forum is dominated by birthday threads and dead running backs. I thought this might help inject some needed life into the place. Tebow at #4.

    Car Buying Question

    This is a 450-hp roadster that can do 0-60 in less than 3.5, maybe quicker. A 1,000-hp version will soon follow after the 2025 intro. It features almost 50/50 weight distribution, precise handling, even better steering and an enormous number of upgrade options. It's a Porsche at an...

    Super Bowl LVII: Chiefs vs. Eagles

    The team with the advantage in running the ball, defense and (esp) turnovers wins the game most of the time, and yet the Chiefs (14-3) come in as a 1.5 favorite. I'm going with the Eagles (14-3). Plenty of storylines. Andy Reid facing the team he led for 14 seasons, MVP Patrick Mahomes vs...

    Billy the Kid

    Bright young guy, energetic, snappy buzz cut, says all the right things, is going about building in a highly organized fashion. And yet I can't get jazzed. Not yet. Am I alone? Let me know. You have coaches who build one agonizing block at a time and you have those who do fast fix. Spurrier...

    LA Rams vs. Cincinnati

    The Bengals (+4) come into the game with one of the worst regular-season records of the SB era. They’ve had one thing very much in their favor in the playoffs. A plus-5 turnover margin. I’ve got no dog in the fight. I’m picking the horny dudes.
