    B10 makes both semi's. OSU isn't a big surprise, but Oregon's collapse was something. PSU is a surprise to me. They had little in the way of quality wins. But they punched their ticket and will face the winner today between Georgia and Notre Dame. I'd be stunned if Notre Dame keeps it close...

    Some exhales of relief from the polling folks. B10 is justifying their rankings at the moment. Alabama justified not being in the playoff. Still possible to have an all "SEC" final though.

    NFL 2024-2025 Season

    Got to wonder, if there was no Patriots, would there even be a Chiefs? The Patriots were a surprise because they managed to win 3 in 4, in an era where that wasn't thought to be possible any more with free agency the way it is. And they did so with relatively little top shelf talent. Then they...

    Puhlease! Try growing up in New England and going to college in NYC and having only the Jets or Giants to watch on Sunday unless there was a bye week.

    OSU loses to TN, the fans will probably be burning down the stadium because OSU lost, not because of a flag.

    Cowboys fans feel better when they think about this and the Jets. Jets fans console themselves by thinking of the Browns. The Browns fans are currently in denial about how they are just one change away from making a deep playoff run next year.

    Probably shouldn't be planting flags after winning a first round playoff game, unless you are a massive underdog.

    If memory serves, I thought that was on Fox Soccer Plus. Maybe even FS2, back in the day. Always sucks when someone owns the rights and doesn't broadcast it... or did and then stopped. Fox used to be so much better with the niche sports. Discovery took the Champions League and stuffed it behind...

    Australia sports programming is a bear time zone wise! I think I remember catching some of the Super 12 or whatever it was called back in the days of Setanta Sports. Cricket, the test matches (currently Australia v India) start around 8 PM and by the time you wake up, they are done for the day...

    Appears the Patriots won't be in the playoffs this year. Neither will the Browns. Well, at least the Pats don't have the QB in for tens of millions a season. Indeed, the NFL's biggest sin is you need to be a lawyer to know all the rules. I've been watching for decades and sometimes I don't know...

    OTA USB stopped working on Hopper 3

    I've had something similar. Works, doesn't work, works, doesn't work. The module is cool and not particularly warm. Not much to fiddle with. I've had it only twoish years probably. I know the antenna is fine as the split to the new TV is fine. In fact the tuner in that is much better...

    The first ever NCAA Football Playoff Bracket challenge. link SEC final replay for the Title. I'll be glad to be wrong and see the Big Ten run wild on the playoff. It is just that their schedules were silly.

    Playoff thoughts. The Big 10 have three teams in the first round. They go 3-0, they at least can silence the legit criticism regarding their schedules and whether they aren't that good. They go 1-2, Big Ten looks bad. They go 0-3, we start asking whether it is time to stop doing the AP and...

    New offers automatically unsubbing

    Yup, My Offers. I always have a collection of 1 month free deals on Flex Packs and then the usual 6 months of Dish Movies for half off. The Free Showtime is relatively new. The odd thing is they have 2 months free Showtime or 3 months Showtime half off. I've been with Dish for quite a while...

    New offers automatically unsubbing

    Always checking the offers from Dish. One thing I've noticed with the last couple is that they are defaulting the offer to turn off the add-on, instead of making the subscriber choose to turn it off after the deal is over. I like that. I'm starting a second two months Showtime for free deal...

    Seeing that College Football is already that type of industry, forever, no changes needed. Alabama shouldn't have lost to Vanderbilt. That isn't asking much.

    Indiana better win a game in the playoff to justify their ridiculous inclusion. Alabama fans demanding playoff be expanded to 24 teams and that losses can be played over.

    ...if you include passes to the Broncos! Add in 3 sacks and 11 yards rushing and he proved there is nothing he can't do. The 612 total passing yards* is a franchise record... and good thing because the rushing game was non-existent. His 6 touchdowns was also a franchise record for TD passes...

    Patriots can go 2-15 and as long as those two wins were against The Jets, that is a winning season! :) There are so many rivalries in professional sports. Just scratching the surface, in hockey, Montreal v Boston, Chicago v Detroit, Montreal v Toronto. Basketball has Boston v LA. Baseball...

    AP Rankings are out and Georgia/Alabama are the winners. I'd be quite content with Texas v Oregon in just a single game for the #1 spot. Certainly, the trouble we have is, if Alabama (3 loss Alabama including to Vanderbilt) were to win the championship, it might lead us to the philosophical...
