    The ratio of 'gossip' to 'journalism' has remained fixed since the beginning of time. Today there's more of both - to which we all have much better access - than at any time in human history.

    I knew it was going to be a disaster when Schap was on camera, and it was in front of the IMG Academy in Bradenton.

    He had to be absolutely furious when it came out that "Softball Katie" was getting the on-camera interview.

    Going back over every Notre Dame game tape that Te'o played it appears that Manti bought the play action fake every time.

    That's the flaw of the Diacco no crease defense. LB's susceptible to false keys.

    This is just pitiful.

    Can there be a bigger waste of time than Twitter? (well, other than posting here.)
