I think he made First Team All Big Ten and was 3rd Team All American? Sure, I think one more year would benefit him, but there's a lot of question marks next year for the basketball team. Kris may not be Keegan, but he is a specimen and has the frame. I assume he is dialing in his game and...

I still go back to being a traditionalist so change has been tough. Manfred is about finding ways to get the casual fan back to the ball park. Most fans realize the game has not changed much since it's inception. I do like that the games are shorter. But anyone who knows baseball, knows the...

What are you guys' thoughts on the extra inning runner at second? I dislike it. I see why in some ways with saving arms, but to me, I am a traditionalist and that's part of the game. I also just shake my head at some of the crazy things they are trying in the minors. Has me shaking my head.

"Pito" always had slow starts blamed on cooler temps in Chicago. I loved him and the Sox always had a great line of first basemen from Big Frank to Konerko to Abreu and now hopefully Vaughn. I'm moving on from Abreu. He had a good run of 9 years with the Sox and it just never panned out. In some...

I'm still pissed my Chicago White Sox let Jose Abreu walk. But I have tried to move on. I wasn't happy with their off season and I was worried about their pitching in general. I think Lynn bounces back. Cease will do Cy Young things. Giolito hasn't convinced me he has figured it out, and Kopech...

I also read somewhere that she volunteers at some food pantry in the area. Apparently, they wanted to pay her, but has declined. I get she is making alot of money, but I also think this gives you a bit more of the perspective of the person, Caitlyn Clark.

I can't remember where I was reading this article, but there was talk that CC has her senior year and COVID year left and she has left the door open to come back both years. At first, I thought, "Why? Go to the WNBA and make your money." Although I was unaware of the disparity with...

She also commented she is doing this "for all little girls like her." What does that mean? Brash, trash talking Diva types that lack respect for others and the game? It doesn't help that she is very dismissive of the criticism of her antics. No insight to an alternative perspective. Just a big...

I see ESPN interviewed Reece and the taunting was brought up. Of course, right off the bat, the commentator immediately reinforced how unfair the portrayal of her was and backlash. And right on cue, Reece made mention of race and how she is going to be "unapologetically me". So, I guess...

It's sad that the NCAA women's basketball final is being overshadowed by all this and the race card is being thrown around. Viewership was up and broke records. A platform was cemented to a level that women's basketball has never seen before. That is what we should be celebrating. AND that our...

The fourth foul/technical was huge. Clark mentioned in the post game that it did affect her driving, but also, she made mention that LSU also seemed to keep someone in the lane to stop her drives. Mulky made mention to this as well stating she knew that Clark would get her looks from behind the...

This debate is blowing up all over on social media. I think the comparisons everyone is talking about is the "You Can't See Me" motion. I will be the first to say, if you are going to dish it out, you best be ready to take it. Hence, why I don't really like any of it from any player including...

Petras was a miss in recruiting. Wasn't he a 4 or 5 star recruit out of California? I will admit that one fault of KF he tends to be loyal to the bone with starters. Take away some of the offensive woes of the line and play calling, and Petras just didn't seem to develop or get to that next...

Sadly, DJ has a striking resemblance to Aaron and with being such a polarizing figure along with his transgressions, I'm sure DJ struggled to escape the shadow of his brother. He left Iowa and I think he left football all together and started a roofing business if I remember correctly. I cannot...

Throw in how this will boost recruiting and with the transfer portal looming big in how teams retool, who knows what next year and the year after bring. Imagine being a player getting the chance to play with a player of the caliber of Clark? Say a Hailey Van Lith, who has ties to Clark for a...

Big Ten represented the tournament very well! Even with Indiana going down early, having 3 teams in the Final Four is a big statement.

It's been disheartening to see our O-line struggle the last couple years. What was once a strength has now become a glaring weakness. Is it players playing out of position? Youth? Technique? Or is it we are not getting the players we used to? Maybe it's Barnett? I am struggling find the right...

Good examples. I forget that JBo did take the point along with Connor. Mike Gessell!! Man, I forgot about him! He was solid!

I was almost physically sick watching Lee lose. I can only image how crushing of a blow this was to him mentally. There was some criticism about Lee medically forfeiting after the loss. I wish he could have came back to wrestle, but I am not going to question Brands or speak to that. What I...

My memory might be escaping me, but come to think of it, under Fran, I don't think we have had a really effective point guard. In the past it's been more of a "by committee" point guard. We've seen Touissant, CMc, JBo, Uhlis, Perkins, and even Bowen. Is it the offense or the philosophy? We...
