My son went 3-for-3 with a 3-run double and got his very first game ball after our win today. Now we’re going to see “Field of Dreams” on the big screen in Pittsburgh. Phenomenal Father’s Day with my boy.

Check out my column and see if you could do what I mention at the beginning. I’ll bet you could!!!! 😂
This week in PSU Point-Counterpoint, Neil and Cory were asked what they’re most looking forward to as Big Ten play begins for the Nittany Lions. 🔗@neilrudel altoonamirror.com/sports/psu… 🔗@corygiger altoonamirror.com/sports/psu… 📸AP

Now that we have two games under Matt Campbell’s belt, we asked Neil and Cory what they’re most optimistic and pessimistic about so far in this week's PSU Point-Counterpoint. 🔗@NeilRudel : tiny.cc/6rna101 🔗@coryGiger: tiny.cc/arna101 📸AP

As far as press conferences today go, this one was far worse. What Franklin did is obnoxious. But that’s it. Seeing Arch laugh about a video where a woman gets slapped — even if it is AI — is disgusting. This is a pathetic look for him, Texas, college football and our society.
“I saw the AI Edit of (Sark) slapping Holly Rowe.” I asked Arch Manning if he’d seen any edits on TikTok or Twitter after the game, and his answer is gold.

I tweeted about it earlier. Ripped Franklin for always needing everything to be about him. Then I deleted the tweet. Because I don’t want to rip him every time he does something wacky. He’s low-hanging fruit in that regard. But yeah … on this one, he just looks dumb.

It wasn’t 28-3 in the Super Bowl, but short of that, what we just saw was about as improbable of a comeback as I’ve ever seen in sports. For Ohio State of all teams to melt down like that … just wow. Incredible comeback by Texas.

Penn State is solid team. That’s it. Nothing great. Nothing terrible. If it were any other season, this would have 8-4 or maybe even 7-5 written all over it. With this schedule, 9 or 10 wins is doable. But we probably shouldn’t expect Lions to look overly impressive along way.

Hahahahaha. This is funny and wild and sad and … maybe even true!
The way the calendar year in college football has gone so far, is it really that implausible to imagine WMU finding some judge somewhere to somehow declare them the winner?

They looked like they were ready to play football from the start. Instead of mucking around for most of the first half trying to “‘make adjustments” because they weren’t ready to begin with.
Replying to @CoryGiger
Giger, the score aside, they looked better coached, more organized in the first quarter than at any point last year, and more organized than the last several years

A+++ debut for Matt Campbell at Penn State. Impressive game in all phases, players and coaches alike.

So weird. It’s like, hey, let’s try to throw a lot. And score. And throw some more. And keep scoring. What is all this? 😂 😂

#Hokies football coach James Franklin is now addressing the BOV. Talked about investment and potential in the football program. Acknowledges VT is in the process of playing catch-up. "If nothing changes, nothing will change."

The WNBA looks small and immature and absolutely insane for refusing to define what a woman is. Yeah, I’ll die on this hill. I don’t support Enes Kanter. But I support the idea that sometimes it takes crazy actions to finally get people to stop acting ignorant.
I love you Cory. You know I do. This is a weird hill to keep dying on. Nobody is saying WNBA players can defeat an NBA player. If anything, Kanter looks small and immature arguing from the stands.

Why they gotta do @EnesFreedom wrong and eject him? Hell, just let him go on the court and decide this once and for all. Because when he goes out there & scores 70 points with 50 rebounds, everybody would see truly just how much the WNBA is filled with insane thoughts and ideas.
Enes Kanter GOT INTO IT with a WNBA player and was KICKED OUT the arena 😳

Quick analysis: Drew Allar can do a few things but still has a light year to go. Will Howard should be cut, because no way Steelers can keep four QBs. Maybe he goes on IR or something. Bottom line, Mason Rudolph was the biggest winner for the Steelers tonight.

Drew Allar out here making James Franklin look really bad. Hey, I’ll admit I’ve never been sold on Allar. But hopefully all he really needed was to get away from Franklin’s bullshit offense.

Shut him down for the season. Seriously. The Pirates are done. Skenes is obviously dealing with something — arm, weight, mechanics, mental, holding back on purpose, whatever. It does nobody any good for long haul to keep running him out there to further diminish his health/value.
Paul Skenes threw just 65 pitches in five innings tonight against the Marlins, allowing one earned run while striking out four, walking one and allowing five hits He never reached 97 MPH on any pitch

You have to fight crazy with crazy. The WNBA is filled with crazy people. So, here’s the crazy result. I present to you the single greatest interview in the history of sports. Dude doesn’t waffle at all. Straight face. Dead serious. We live in craaaaaazy times.
