I’m firmly in the camp if you have to stay awake for 36 hours before kickoff so you don’t die from a blood clot you should probably skip playing that game.

I know it's nowhere near as important as Jalen Hurts' health and well-being, but this horrifying story is why I'll always root for the players get every dollar they can and every protection they can collectively bargain

Fun fact: The Cardinals have more victories (2) at SoFi Stadium through six weeks of the season than the Rams (1) and Chargers (0) combined. The Cards haven't won anywhere else.

No bigger red flag as a journalist than when powerful people or their allies start issuing prebuttals to a story you haven’t even put out. Only means you’re getting closer to valuable information

I wrote this four years ago and it still applies. The people who run college football conferences don’t get the regular season *is* the sport and rivalries are more important than the tv markets. The playoffs should be additive to that, not replacing that. Sad.

Passing yards are a capitalist construct invented to distract the proletariat from realizing their true potential.
“Playing good and playing bad, it’s a narrative,” Bo Nix said. “I think it’s honestly something we make up.” The #broncos QB said he feels like he’s playing similar to how he’s always played, but he’s just a few things away from stat line looking different.

Noah Fifita is a 5 foot 10 quarterback, and people offered him millions of dollars to leave Arizona. He stayed. Saturday he was the highest graded quarterback in college football. Here is the whole thing. He is from Huntington Beach, California, and he went to Servite High School in Anaheim. He threw for 7,273 yards and 83 touchdowns there. Both are school records. MaxPreps ranked him the eighth best high school quarterback in the country. Now look at who offered him a scholarship. Arizona. California. Colorado State. Fresno State. Hawaii. Idaho State. New Mexico. Utah State. Two of those were Power Five programs. He is 5 foot 10, and that was the whole list. He picked Arizona. He sat as a freshman. His first career touchdown pass went to Tetairoa McMillan, who had been his high school teammate. Then in Week 4 of the next season the starter, Jayden de Laura, got hurt. Fifita came in and won the game at Stanford. By the time de Laura was healthy, the job was gone. He threw 25 touchdowns and six interceptions that year and was named the Pac-12 Offensive Freshman of the Year. Against Arizona State he threw for 527 yards and five touchdowns, which is still the most in a game in Arizona history. Then the coach who recruited him left for Washington. The next season Arizona went 4 and 8 and Fifita threw 12 interceptions. That is the moment almost everybody leaves. Here is what he says about it. "They've been loyal to me, they've trusted me, so I've been loyal to them." The year after that Arizona won nine games and he threw 29 touchdowns and made first team All-Big 12. On September 19 against Northern Illinois he completed 31 of 34 passes for 325 yards and four touchdowns. One of those completions went seven yards to Isaiah Mizell and made him the leading passer in the history of the school, past Nick Foles. Mizell said he wanted to make the moment special because Fifita is his brother. Then Saturday at West Virginia. Sixteen of 23 for 341 yards and three touchdowns, including one that went 72 yards. Arizona won 52 to 31. Pro Football Focus graded that game a 93.1, the best of any quarterback in the Power Four. Away from the field he feeds people in Tucson who do not have anywhere to eat, and he coaches kids in flag football. His house is where the team goes. His younger brother Dash is a freshman linebacker there. Here is what his head coach Brent Brennan says. "Noah Fifita is the best story in college football." Everybody leaves now. He has thrown for more yards than anybody in the history of his school, and he did all of it in one uniform.
