    Yes. That's it. I'm addicted to Live Auctioneers. They have a host of auction types, including coins and currency, collectibles, jewelry, estate, military, petroliana, vintage signs, sports memorabilia... The clock ticking down typically is the remaining time before the auction begins...

    @Ale Xander Yeah, these are trials and typically are not a big draw. That said, with Penn State's recent national championship and MANY Lion alumni (David Taylor, Zane Retheford, Vincenzo Joseph, Nick Lee, Jason Nolf, others) and NLWC (Nittany Lion Wrestling Club) members (Kyle Snyder, Kyle...

    If you were a ballplayer...

    This was at Penn State in the mid '70s. I had a friend who was really into the game and had visions of setting up a national professional league. I mean, this guy was all in. He started off by setting up a competitive league on campus and I guess he attracted maybe 200 players, perhaps 20 of...

    I was a collegiate air hockey champion. I don't think I could be any better than that. Although I was actually a very good Frisbee golf player as well in its earliest, earliest years.

    Impressive Penn State win. First team to ever crown 2 four-time winners in the same year. Set new team point record (172.5), to break Iowa's record of 170 set in 1997.

    I'd have to dive deep to find that. Iowa set the team point record in 1998 with 170 points vs. runner-up Oklahoma State's 113-1/2, a 67-1/2 point margin. Both of those marks are in jeopardy.

    College Name-Image-Likeness (NIL)

    View: https://youtu.be/E-Gmjbq7Hzo?si=nedB2asHJaYeQG0q Having now listened to Nick Saban, I wonder if an option might be to revise the NIL-transfer portal dynamic. If, as Saban seems to suggest, players are going to follow the money and highest bidder, and use the transfer portal to leverage...
