Re: To the extent it comes up: Trump crap post-WH years
And if he doesn’t? Still doesn’t matter if not enforced by…anyone. Whatever criticism you want to level at the various enforcement bodies and legal jurisdictions I don't think you can accuse them of not going after Trump. He's looking at two civil trials and four criminal trials in a 12-month span.

Re: NCAA FB 2023
It’s really not that ridiculous. In the last 20 years at least 2 G5 schools probably would have gotten byes (Boise State and Cincinnati). In fact freed from having to leave a P4 school out some G5 schools might get a better chance at a bye.

Re: NCAA FB 2023
I think 99.9 percent of coaches and 80 percent of ADs would rather have a 4 seed than a 5 seed in the new format. (Though I’ll grant the 5 seed will end up winning 95+ percent of the time since it’ll usually be facing a Group Of Five school.)

Re: NFL Conference Championships week
Because OT, RB and TE are clearly the same as punter and kicker.
(That said I do hope they draft a kicker in the late rounds this year. That seems to be working for a lot of teams. Going with practice squad castoffs isn’t cutting it.)
