Ted Cruz being on @CollegeGameDay is a true disgrace. Shame on @espn and whoever allowed this. And thank God the Texas Longhorns fans in Austin are booing the crap out of him.

The College Football Playoff is not what makes the sport so special. Itโ€™s fall Saturdays. College football is about the pageantry, history, tradition, rivalries and campus culture. The 24-team CFP ruins the high-stakes regular season, which is the best thing about the sport.

abdullah was really down 5-1 arguably 6-0 against a pretty skilled boxer and proceeded to win 5 straight rounds and get the stoppage overcoming shit like that at 22 is why heโ€™ll be around in this sport for a long time

I know John Ossoff is probably not going to run for President in this cycle, but if he did I would delighted to see him as the Democratic nominee.
Ossoff: How weak a person do you have to be to be unable to stop someone under your own roof from disseminating neo-Nazi propaganda while you run for the Senateโ€ฆ How about this, Mike, we can shake hands on it โ€” will you commit tonight that for the remainder of this campaign โ€” it's just three weeks, Mike โ€” you won't allow any more neo-Nazi propaganda to be produced from your house? Can you make that commitment?

I know someone who got offered this fight but wasnโ€™t in shape. Shows the value of staying ready for the right opportunity
Enormous moment for late replacement Sergio Mendoza, who stops unified flyweight champion Ricardo Sandoval in Round 5. This is why we watch boxing.

There are definitely compelling arguments for Ken Paxton be favored to win in Texas. But IMO "Texas hasn't gone blue statewide since 1994, you're delusional if you think that will ever change" just isn't one of them. โ€” Before Biden won it in 2020, Georgia hadn't voted for a Democrat for president since 1992 โ€” Before Biden won it in 2020, Arizona hadn't voted for a Democrat for president since 1996 โ€” Before Obama won it in 2008, Virginia hadn't voted for a Democrat for president since 1964 โ€” Before Obama won it in 2008, North Carolina hadn't voted for a Democrat for president since 1976 Trends are trends until they break. And once those trends do finally break, we all just quickly accept the new reality โ€” like all of these states now being either perennial battleground states (Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina) or relatively safe blue states (Virginia).

Arch doesnโ€™t move the offense. He lacks the same gravity as Vince Young and Colt McCoy. The defenses donโ€™t respect him. Sark is kind of asking to be on the hot seat by rolling with this guy for the second consecutive year. Maybe try Dia Bell or someone else and save his job.

This is Archโ€™s fourth year in the program, and he became the starter in his third. Vince and Colt started in their second year, while Quinn started in his first. Your comparison is weak and you know it.

FYI.
Canelo reached out and told me heโ€™ll still fight in Riyadh this October, no matter what happens. He fears nothing. My country is home to the two Holy Mosques, land of peace, safety, rich civilization, deep history, and kind-hearted people. Thank you to everyone who checked in and showed support. Hard times reveal true friends.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿปโค๏ธ๐ŸฅŠ

If the Skydance merger sours TNT on hosting DAZN boxing, I'd reach out to USA Network for a similar collaboration... USA is expanding sports load, including Bundesliga, college football... DAZN brings boxing and soccer properties to the table....
Much like the DAZN/boxing tie up w TNT/TBS/TRU, would be cool to see combat sports get a foothold on a USA network that is increasingly dipping into the sports rights market...
