Wilner is extremely plugged into the Pac-12, so I think his reporting is accurate, although he cautions it's not a...

    Smart home: lighting, locks, sound, cameras, and more

    Last month my wife and I purchased our first home together. I’m hoping to install a ton of smart home features around the house. I’m not completely unfamiliar with the concept, as I had several IKEA Trafri lights and outlet switches in our last apartment together. However, we only used them on...

    Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus

    A chorus of media outlets are now reporting Ronaldo to Juventus is a done deal at EUR 105,000,000. I'm still shocked by this. Ronaldo is 33 and at a age where even his younger competitors, such as Wayne Rooney, are moving away from the world's top leagues due to declining skills. Still he's the...

    #1 Florida State vs. #2 Auburn - The Final BCS Championship Game Thread

    I have never been more uncertain coming into a championship game than I am tonight. Florida State is undefeated and has dominated nearly every game, but hasn't faced the toughest opposition. Auburn has been tested, but many of its wins have been close. No outcome would surprise me. Fortunately...
