    SI's "Ohio State: The Program"

    Did we ever talk about this issue? I really enjoyed Wertheim's look at the various aspect of Ohio State's Fortune 500esque athletic program, from Greg Oden on down to a vendor. A lot of quick reads that contributed to an overall theme. Great enterprise journalism that wouldn't be out of place in...

    In honor of the Senior Bowl ... the Wonderlic test!

    How do you compare to legendary scholars like Vince Young, Dan Marino and Marcus Vick? Give it a shot (I got this off an NFL fan site, but supposedly it's pretty accurate - the two missing questions are these weird geometry questions that supposedly everyone gets wrong anyway. Answers to...

    Story of the year so far?

    Telander calls out "immature Bears."

    This is a couple of weeks old, but I just heard about it. Apparently Rick Telander felt threatened by the Bears in the locker room, and wrote about it. I can't decide if the players are idiots, Telander is a thin-skinned wussy, or a little bit of both...

    Funny stuff from Jeff Passan's column

    I think we've all been in these situations, where athletes are just totally talking out of their ass or saying what they think the writers want to hear: http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=AlmWxUxxvOFPvJzOMkrATCU5nYcB?slug=jp-3series102506&prov=yhoo&type=lgns So, naturally, the Tigers found...

    Buster Olney's blog?

    I've heard some talk on here about it, but I've never read it because I'm not an "Insider." Worth the price? Apparently Olney links to various baseball stories around the country, etc., etc.? And he seems to be pretty much the most informed baseball writer out there, right?

    Better coach: Charlie Weis or Ty Willingham?

    While pre-season national title darling Notre Dame has stumbled and bumbled its way to a lucky 6-1 mark, setting itself up for another BCS embarrassment, Washington is nicely putting the horrors of the last two years behind it. Which has got to make you wonder - in the long run, did Notre Dame...

    Toughest college programs to cover

    In honor of the FWAA delivering its directories last night, I was flipping through and wondering about this. Thoughts: 1. Penn State - Maybe you get players, maybe you don't this week. You never know. Plus, at a public university, the head coach's salary is a closely guarded secret. 2. Notre...

    How long before Notre Dame really gets in trouble?

    This seems innocuous, kind of like the Leinart or Jarrett situations last year, but it seems like it's one thing or another out of that place right now (Zbikowski said, "You're watching 'Sports Dogs' on Channel X!"): http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/news/story?id=2554795

    How much do you spend on clips?

    I'm sure there have been dozens of threads like this, but just wondering, because it seems to get expensive ... I usually buy a binder, put photocopies of the stories (at 6 cents a page) in cover sheets (which are expensive), and put projects/enterprise stuff in a report cover separate from the...

    Do you ever miss school?

    Not the beer bonging, bar-hopping, pot-smoking and frequent casual sex. Of course we all miss that. But saw kids start to saunter around today at the local university today and thought, "Damn, crazy as it sounds, I'd rather be going to a discussion on Kant or turning in a paper this morning...

    "Is this game critical? No. Is it big? Yes. And it is big, mostly, in regards to the psyche of the Tigers." The Tigers, BTW, are 4 1/2 games ahead of the White Sox as of this posting.

    "Click"

    I know it's getting lambasted by critics, mostly for trying to work flatulence and loose skin jokes into a sentimental drama, but when you get past some of the immaturity, damn, that was a pretty intense movie (saw it last night). People keep comparing it to "It's a Wonderful Life" and "A...
