Ssssh, don't talk about Nebraska looking good this season lest the curse start paying attention to us again after finally being drawn away by Colorado.

Ideal state: we stay off the rankings list until, surprise! We're playing for Big 10 championship!

Starting to show the cracks I've suspected were there. Shedeur leaving the game early with an entourage should embarrass CU fans; they deserve better.

Is this start for real or am I in a fever dream?

Here for CU @ NU. Flu shot yesterday is making me feel like shit and I want to feel hype but will settle for sitting upright. gbr

Then comments calling out the unnecessary, ham-handed gendering should be expected data points.

I missed the game live, but my brother's short assessment after the game was "Colorado coaching with emotion, and not the good kind". Sums it up pretty well now that I've had the chance to watch some clips.

Yes. At the time I'm commenting, 1 out of 2 questions on the "women's" question is about the gendered nature of the question itself (50%). And 2 out of 11 on the "mens" (18%). The dataset has already been "polluted" as you describe, by the design of the questions.

Missing the obvious: how much did Pitbull pay?

Edit: $6.2 million. Which for ten years...? Idk, that seems reasonable for someone with too much money.

Thanks. Off to shop for crab meat.

 

I recently went to Boston and had crab cakes at several different restaurants and they were delicious. Don't @ me, Maryland, but they were better than anything I've had in the Baltimore and DC area. For one, The "crab" was very forward rather than the "cake" part. Like good crab meat with enough "cake" to make it hold in a patty form, and some fresh greens.

Any recipes for more Boston-style crab cakes?

Player allegiance is to their team most of the time, not a school, not a geographical region, not a fan base. If a leader who was a substantial part of what made the team "the team", then players should be able to go search out a new team.

Coaches contracts have managed to work this out. They stick out their contract or they pay (or get their next school to pay). Schools keep coaches to end of contract or they pay.

I don't want to see players limited in ways coaches aren't. They only get a few years to play college ball, while coaches get decades. Let the players take their best shots. It's crazy now because it's new, things will settle down after a couple seasons. Maybe NIL contracts start looking different to encourage players to stick around 3+ years.

Tightening up mauls and back-and-forth kicking bouts? Sounds good to me. Those things take the wind right out of games.

Seems I get my rugby news from the guardian, where else is good

I'm subscribed to Rugbydump feed and BBC Sports Rugby feed on my RSS reader. New England Free Jacks also has an RSS feed and I'm guessing most other MLR teams do as well.
