BOSTON (AP) — AP Source: Ivy League calls off fall sports, including football, for its eight schools. It's now sounding as this pertains to basketball as well, as they're now clarifying no sports until 1/1/21. Will other conferences now begin to slowly follow suit? https://media3.giphy.com/media/3o...

Disgusting!!

The money these professional athletes are making these days is sickening!!

Are you a socialist?

Sounds like you need to find new media sources. Or at least stop watching TV for news. I'm a news/print media snob but I don't see any TV news as "news". I see it as entertainment. I acknowledged that when I said that American media is a joke. The general public is dumb and doesn’t know this though...

That does look like a noose, IMO. But I’m not a rope tying expert. https://twitter.com/jeff_gluck/status/1276188964488003584?s=21 It does, also not a rope tying expert as I never even made it to Cub Scouts. People will see what they want to see though. I tried tying a rope like that maybe 5 months ...

Jemele Hill should charge rent for how much space she takes up in peoples minds.

Point of clarification. I believe Jemele would be the one paying the rent in this type of lessee/lessor relationship.

A shame that this kind of thing happens. Like other false media hyped accusations, it causes another wave of people to say "Yeah just like ____" and roll their eyes the next time something legitimate actually happens.

Everything you need to know is that the union blew it, again. Not sure why the players unions continue to let players and ex-players run the show.

I have my thoughts on what will happen to the upcoming season. It is a no brainer that there will be some sort of limitation of fans being able to watch live games. Besides that, how will it play out? The NBA is trying to create a bubble but that will be impossible for the NCAA. There will be a vac...

Am I off base here or does the fact this thread has only 17 replies shows that Peoria losing the tournament isn't really that big of a deal??? There are more posts on this thread than players who chose Bradley because they played in the state tournament here. 4 classes hurt excitement. Ubiquitous b...

Hmmm not admitted to Michigan as an athlete? Seems....problematic.

NCAA football coaches are a really weird bunch overall.

A blow to the Peoria ego, but the state finals was ruined when they went to 4 classes. The IHSA destroyed what was a really high level event in favor of giving out more trophies. Even when Manual made an appearance with the Damonte/Youngman team a few years back, there was just no energy at all. Bes...

Robert Morris to make it official tomorrow at 1PM ET: https://twitter.com/JonRothstein/status/1272211208020639745 And it looks like NJIT is gonna make their announcement about heading to the America East tomorrow at 11:30 AM ET. This NKU writer looks down on conference brethren. https://www.nkytrib...

I'm no TAS, but if there was ever a time to renew the series with WIU wouldn't this be it??? Home and home it so you don't have to buy them if you are concerned about paying...they should win a ton of games for the next year or two. I don't see many negatives here...thoughts? In a budget related wa...

This should be Western's most talented team ever.

Their 7 fans should enjoy it. The NCAA will have a field office setup there by 2022.

That is Cody Schindler. He is really talented with a perfect voice for play by play, IMO.

NASCAR was already struggling mightily with attendance. I guarantee you they're happy this all happened at a time when no fans are allowed and are hoping by next season this all has blown over. I think they're greatly mistaken and see attendance taking an even bigger hit. Like myself, many other fr...

There you go.

Pretty big step for them. Good time to do it though.



This deserves an award too...

https://twitter.com/espn/status/1270720836488445953 Bubba is also asking that Confederate flags be banned at NASCAR events. That seems like a reasonable request. I've never understood the fascination with the confederate flag. They lost. It is a representation of traitors who got beat. Statues of l...

Chatman was a one-time BU recruit.

Am I remembering right that he was being recruited to the spot filled by Jashon?

Sons of great coaches have always worked out so well..
