Musician and (sometimes begrudgingly) loyal fan of teams that give me cardiac arrest (aka Seattle sports).

It took way, WAY longer than I ever imagined. But finally, at long last, it's here. So even if you don't care about my incessant ramblings regarding sports, feel free to give this a listen. I put much more time into this than I do Twitter, so take that for what you will.
After 5 long years, the storm has finally arrived. Minotaur's debut EP, "Tales From The Rain" is available to stream NOW on any platform of your choice! Now please, go give it a listen! After all, this is just the beginning...and there's many tales to be told.

Genuine question for G6 teams: what is the point of y'all staying in the NCAA? From a football perspective, ESPN and the powers that be have made it pretty clear you're never gonna be able to compete with the big boys. So why not just take your collective ball and leave the NCAA?
From a G6 perspective, Were going from a guaranteed 1/12 slice of a pie, To a guaranteed 1/24 piece of a pie. And fewer p4 scheduling opportunities. It’s a loss of power and influence for the G6

"We took the fan sentiment into consideration" BULL. SHIT. Because if you did, you would've never even had the conversation to expand them to begin with. Stop insulting our intelligence, Richard. Just admit you're doing this to line the pockets of you and your über rich buddies.
NEW: CFP executive director Rich Clark on fans against the 24-team College Football Playoff: "We’re aware of the fan sentiment, and that many fans aren’t in favor of expansion. That was certainly weighed into the decision and it was considered. But ultimately, we just need to make a spectacular Playoff." on3.com/news/cfp-executive-d…

Eagles, PLEASE. I beg of you. PLEASE take him off our hands.
Jedd Fisch mentioned as a strong candidate for the Eagles’ HC position. Would make a lot of sense as the Eagles GM is close friends with Fisch and they used to be roommates.

Yeah, so I no longer feel bad about the Seahawks getting destroyed by Chicago last week. Those Bears are fucking legit.

Say what you want about Fleury (a lot of it is valid) but I have a counterpoint: What exactly is he supposed to do without his starting 2 running backs to start the year, and now a third string QB?
Mike Macdonald said Drew Lock suffered an oblique injury today and his status for this coming week is up in the air. That’s what Lock was getting examined in the medical tent. Macdonald didn’t have a great feel for whether Sam Darnold (quad/rib) can get back this week.

You know it's bad when you have to use the broken Ukelele at QB.
DJ Uiagalelei has entered at QB for the Chargers.

Fucking took em long enough. I have a sneaking suspicion Whittingham is gonna stay until the end of the year, however. Sorry Wolverine fans.
Sources: Michigan has fired offensive coordinator Jason Beck.

Can I have ONE (1) football team that doesn't piss me off this weekend?

Translation: Fuck you, eat my shorts. Seriously, is Whittingham TRYING to get fired?
Kyle Whittingham on possibly replacing Jason Beck: "Not right now as I’m sitting here at this podium. At some point, you’ve got to have results. It’s a result-driven business,bottom-line business. We’ll re-evaluate everything after the season and determine best course of action."

You're at the two yard line. And you proceed to: Chuck it deep Chuck it deep Try to chuck it deep, and have to rely on home cooking to avoid a safety Why does Jedd Fisch still have a job again?

Good start, Mr. Kanzler. Now put your money where your mouth is.
New Mariners manager Jason Kanzler refers to the Astros as "the team that shall not be named" during his introductory press conference 😂

Unbeaten UCLA and 1 loss BYU are both ranked lower than 2 loss Texas and 2 loss Alabama. That shouldn't be anywhere near a true statement at this juncture in the season, and yet it is. This shit is exactly why people claim SEC bias. What a fucking joke.
First College Football Playoff Rankings IN: 1)Miami 2) Georgia 3)Utah 4) Indiana 5) Alabama 6) Kentucky 7) Texas 8) UCLA 9) BYU 10) Ole Mis 11) Notre Dame *Boise is 25th OUT 12) Ohio State 13) Tennessee 14) LSU 15) Texas Tech

Hot take that probably no one wants to hear right now: I don't think the Seahawks should fire Brian Fleury. Yes, the offense has been bad. Yes, Fleury has been a part of the issue. HOWEVER, I for one would like to see Mike MacDonald actually attempt to develop a coordinator.

There is some shady shit with these refs bro, this is already the second instance of these refs missing a blatant late hit on a Seahawk.
Bears try to execute Sam Darnold on live TV, and don’t get a flag wow

Take it from someone who watched their team lose to them in the natty, Michigan's defense that year was downright unstoppable. FSU got screwed, sure, but let's not act like they would've fared any better in the Rose Bowl than Alabama did that year.
A moment that altered Florida State’s program and Mike Norvell’s life. Who knows what happens if they reach the CFP that year and play in the Rose Bowl. What transfers and recruits they might’ve landed as a result of that accomplishment. But winning all of their games wasn’t good enough (because a certain conference had to be coddled) and FSU has since gone downhill and Norvell has been fired.
