Yankees suck, Rangers suck, Knicks suck.

This place is kicking!

/was hoping to find a MNF discussion

Redskins @ Vikings?

Anyone?

Since there is no NCAA thread today, I'd like to note how my team (the OSU Beavers) has been hosed by incompetent officiating for 3 of the last 4 games. Already, the officials and replay booth have "given" a huge reception to OSU's opponents, either because they flat-out do not know the rules of NCAA football, they're blind, or they're just stupid.
Two of the last three games were almost lost as a direct result of terrible officiating. This one... well, in spite of that call, the D didn't look super on that first drive.

We won, and our QB play made me forget about the officiating for the mostpart.

Wow, Oregon was amazing today. That was a shock.

Funny, though, the Pac10 teams have done fine, save Arizona State (who looked no better than they did against Oregon or USC). Even UCLA, who I expected to get killed, should have pulled it out.

In spite of the egg ASU laid, the conference should end up with another win. Oregon State didn't have the best offensive game (once again, thank you, quarterbacks), but their defense was absolutely lights-out for the final three quarters against a Maryland team that has been extremely strong in bowls under Captain (sizeofa)Planet. Oregon, really, had the defining game, because I didn't expect them to do that to USF, who was EXTREMELY strong throughout the year.

Scheduling the BCS game for Monday instead of today (or even better on the second) is severely lame.

I guess the NY/NJ teams didn't get a Super Bowl bounce. Since the big game the Knicks, Nets, Rangers and Islanders have lost to the Clippers, Lakers, Kings, and Ducks respectively.

Football withdrawal is rough.

Where's my gratuitous President's Day sporting event?

Did anyone catch this? In halftime of the UK-UT game today, there was a piece on how Indiana is adjusting to life without Kelvin Samson. It was done by Dick Enberg, and got the whole puff-piece treatment, complete with a montage of Samson leaving the court to the tune of a song by James Blunt (or some pussy like that) called "Goodbye".

Look, guys, it's not that the reason he is no longer coach of Indiana is that he had cancer or died in a plane crash or something. He is no longer coach of Indiana because he is a cheating piece of shiat.
