I would also have no problem with being able to sue, for example, when this kind of thing happens, if the kid in question had the freedom to seek...
I'm not saying that what Newton may have done in this case is right. But you're talking about criminalizing the breaking of a sports...
Sure, it would stop it. So would shooting a few of these folks. But what country exactly do you live in sir? It amazes me how many people are...
You would think that. I live right in the middle of ACC country, and the we-wanna-be-football-powers yearning is palpable. Every year the...
I think I read something the other day about Texas having its own Longhorns network and ESPN agreeing to televise it. That's millions of...
Holy Cow! Imagine the uproar in the ACC, after the ACC virtually destroyed the Big East, to lose FSU to the SEC! (Also, what that would do to...
Interesting column by Rick Telander: Cash and carry Heisman? :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Rick Telander "It's not a simple vote anymore, if it ever...

SMU received the death penalty for recruiting violations in 1987. SMU was banned from fielding a team and their season cancelled in '87, and the...
I think the obvious. I think that if a guy holds himself to be a Christian preacher, with all that implies, and somebody falsely accuses his son...
There you go. The books want the bets split 50/50, and they make their money on the vig. They hate unknowns. But I think people made a mistake...
Timeline clarification from MSU, posted on ESPN 20 minutes ago: Mississippi State contacted SEC office - SEC Blog - ESPN
Read that Georgia has gotten a ton of action at +8.5, and the game is now being pulled off the boards.
Good point, but the UNC situation was different. Butch Davis couldn't very well argue innocence when it was his own players with their Twitter...
I would normally find it hard to believe myself, but you have to understand how deep the hatred between Bama and Auburn really is. The Saban era...
Here's where it gets hairy. So far, if Newton is guilty, what he has done is the breaking of NCAA by-laws. Which of course carries no legal...
Come on. Why would you believe that the SEC got off its collective behind, and warned schools about this? I would think that if the SEC indeed,...
