We’ve gone from bad to average. Last year, there were a ton of awful teams and a few good ones. Now we have a few good, a few awful, and a whole bunch in the middle that appear to be indistinguishable from each other. This makes it very challenging for fan bases. Does...

Know your role. If you hung around Nashville last week, you were pretty certain that the rest of the world had missed the memo and Vanderbilt, not ‘Bama, was the undisputed best team in the world. By the time there were 5 minutes left in the first quarter, the record...

My turn to weigh in on the national anthem protests…Let’s go back to what started all this. Collin Kaepernick decided to kneel during the playing of the national anthem before his San Francisco 49ers started a game last year. He said he was protesting the...

That sinking feeling when you know you are with a total loser – how else can you describe a college team from the school you went to dropping a game to a severely inferior opponent? The Charlotte 49ers made the greatest claim to “worst team in America” in amazing...

The NFL is a lot harder to pick than college. I only managed to pick 7 games correctly. And of course, one has to guard against the temptation to overreact. You will likely, however, see some overreaction in this week’s picks. I tried. Really.Houston at Cincinnati...
