Congrats Buckeye Nation. Even though ND got beat as a fan I'm pretty happy with where this program is. The culture is off the charts. Players love Freeman and the staff. Different than when BK was there. They enjoy playing with and for each other. It wasn't that way with BK. I think the only thing t...

Oh Hell Mo, I don't really give a crap about winning anything.....unless it's early retirement papers......

Dumb question.....will this allow us to pick the games where the teams haven't been determined yet?

Laxplayer

Maybe, maybe not. I know I've grown a lot more impatient with people. Having grown children and grand children has mellowed me a bit. I take people for what they are and try not to react to their stupidity as much. I still get riled up once in a while but it's not really worth it. I stepped away fro...

Bummer I don't get a shot at the winnings.......

Mikey, we had a school Rio Hondo Prep with 71 boys in it beat Warren, a school with 3000+ kids for a CIF championship a couple of weeks ago. Bottom line is there is no perfect system. I give our section credit for constantly trying to make it better each year. We also have several areas with a lot o...

Lefty...a lot of people out here agree with you, however with you've exhausted your number of teams for 14 divisions you have to find teams to fill out brackets.

Laxplayer

The way it works for playoffs in So Cal is different. They've experimented with a few things over the years. What they've gone to the last 2 years is an end of the year ranking. Nobody knows what division they're in during the season. You find out after when playoff pairings are announced. They use ...

Welcome back IF......I got away for a while too but check back once in a while. Good to see some of the old timers still around.

I'm going with The Black Knights of the Hudson.

Played golf with CM at the golf stop in San Diego. Good guy. Good times.

We're all getting too old for it. I just try not to get stressed out anymore and just watch for enjoyment. Yes root for my fav teams and enjoy those I don't like losing but it's too much stressing out over. I enjoy watching kids I've covered in high school and it seems no matter what game I turn on ...

If you're in the So Cal area and get Bally's sports the TV schedule for the first few weeks is out. Tons of talent that will be attending colleges all over the country....maybe some dudes are going to your neck of the woods. 9-23 Murrieta Valley at Rancho Cucamonga 9-30 Rancho Santa Margarita at Cor...

Man, I thought Cal would occupy at least the first 20 spots.

Mikey the NIL and Portal have ruined college football. All this paying guys is bullshit. The portal is also a joke. It's free agency and the wild west. It's bad for high school players because many commit to a school with dreams of playing there, then the coach takes guys from the portal year after ...

Nope, he was a scUM fan.

You’re probably thinking of Shine, who was an IU guy.

Shine....I remember that dude.....

Shoalzie was a big Indiana fan if I remember correctly.
There's a bunch of us that still do a fantasy baseball league. Been going on for about 20 years. Some have come and gone but a few regulars from the old board are still in the league.

I've never thought to do it that way....I just come up with a word that uses a bunch of vowels, then start guessing, then by process of elimination figure it out...presently after missing one day a while ago...540 played. 98% streak is 106.

Man...what might have been.......missing the first three weeks.....had I gotten my weekly average I'd be near or at the top....Oh well, another year wasted......

Watching $C crash and burn this year was so much fun. Their fans are still the most myopic in all of CFB. I'll still root for UCLA because mdy daughter was a student athletic trainer with them two years ago and I know so many kids from So Cal that are there. Granted I know a lot that are at $C but I...

Excellent diatribe Jay....good to see you back. I'm bummed about the Pac 8-10-12 etc....going the way of the phone book. Lots of great rivalries and great games. What will become of the Rose Bowl game? Mikey, I love the new stadium at Stanford and you're right about everything. Their recruiting base...

Some of us are still around.....bummer this place went into the basement for a while...would be nice to get it back on track....

The basic knowledge of kids has sunk so low it's actually pretty sad. Kids have no idea how to research things. People where I work say kids are so good at technology...well then why can't they look something up via google? Why can't they find simple things on the internet? I teach a college career ...

I've got two years left after this one. I'll hang em up and maybe go work at a private school.

You guys have no idea how bad it is in public education with the dummying down of everything. I'm in year 35 and have never seen it this bad. We were told that our district wanted to do something called equity grading. Basically if a kid does nothing, no work, makes no effort, etc...they want us to ...

Oregon coach was an idiot for going for it on 4th down. Punt it, flip the field, make them go 80+ yards for a TD.

Laxplayer

Wondering if anyone is going to watch this game. It's on Bally Sports and it's going national so if you've got Bally sports in your area you may be getting this game. 76 guys with FBS offers. #1 and #9 nationally ranked teams....should be a good one.

Old...dude last time I saw you....you were old then......

I should go to Vegas....all 7's so far......granted it's only been two weeks......

It's been a long ass time for many of us from back in the day. Shaz, Jimmy Meds, Greg in PG, Bravefan, Buckeye_inSC, Frisco Aggie....tons of great conversations........Wish this was still a thing.
