    New record crowd for a woman's sporting event: Nebraska volleyball

    I've lived in Omaha for the last 5 years. It's remarkable how much people care about women's volleyball in Nebraska. After college football, it's arguably the biggest sport. You could make a case for men's college basketball with Creighton or college baseball since the College WS is here, but...

    Burrow has most playoff wins for QB in Bengals history with 4. We were so spoiled for 20 yrs.

    The Game Goat Thread: Wk. 18 @ Buffalo

    Cam Achord. Special Teams were bad last year and worse this year. This was the worst ST game I can recall.

    Red Sox sign Justin Turner

    We have nearly as many Dodgers players (Hernandez, Jansen, Turner) as Red Sox players (Barnes, Brasier, Devers, Sale) from the 2018 World Series on the current roster.

    Who Will Be the 2023 Opening Day Starter?

    I know it's only Dec 16. Will Sale be healthy? If not, is Pivetta up next? Rodon, among others, is off the table. Below are the 2023 ZiPS Projections, as of Nov 28: Whitlock 2.9 Sale 2.6 Bello 2.2 Pivetta 1.9 Paxton 1.6 Every other projected starter is below 1 fWAR.

    CFB Coaching Carousel

    Have lived in Omaha since 2018 and can second this take. Nebraska football is everything here--I don't even know what's second in the state; it might be college women's volleyball, if not Creighton men's basketball--and the fans just want the feeling of winning again.

    NFL Reporter John Clayton has died at 67

    RIP, I always enjoyed him on ESPN. Do I remember correctly that he thought Bledsoe should start over Brady in the Rams SB?

    Brian Flores suing NFL, Giants over "sham" Rooney rule - "mistakenly" (?) sent Belichick text may be linchpin

    Who knows what offers Flores received or might have received, but joining the staff of the only Black head coach--or, in any event, one of the only minority HCs--in the NFL while suing the NFL for discrimination seems like a meaningful choice.

    Brian Flores suing NFL, Giants over "sham" Rooney rule - "mistakenly" (?) sent Belichick text may be linchpin

    I'm assuming Belichick accidentally texted Flores instead of Daboll. I'm also assuming Belichick is embarrassed and/or annoyed that the texts are public, but he's neither the one who did something seriously wrong nor the one who stands to win or lose in a major way. If Flores believes the...

    2022 coaching carousel

    People have mentioned Flores rejoining the Pats staff, which many feel is unlikely. What about Judge: would there be interest on either side? New England just had its worst Special Teams season by DVOA since Parcells.

    Pearl Jammin' with Grandpa, the Bill Simmons Thread

    Even this he stole from Kornheiser, though I think many in this forum believe Simmons takes himself more seriously than he does. With the exception of the occasional dip into race relations, public health, etc., it's an entertainment podcast.

    Sox sign Wacha

    Maybe I'm missing something, @Diamond Don Aase. It looks like you're cherry picking players from a large set to prove a point, but what that point is, I don't know. If you think the free agent cost of one fWAR win is less than 7M, or if you think Wacha is a bad choice for 1/7M, I'd be interested...
