A not-so-good Ball State team beat Kent State yesterday at Kent. Lots of mediocrity in the MAC this year.

NLRB files for an injunction against the PG on behalf of the NewsGuild, which already has a favorable ruling from the full NLRB board. Meanwhile, the other unions go back to court Jan. 8 on their injunction. NLRB seeks injunction for striking Post-Gazette newsroom workers

They might have settled their lawsuit, but the Block brothers are still in disagreement. John now wants to handle negotiations himself (but it's not his call). This from the strike website...

The only way this makes sense for Toledo and NIU is if the rest of the MAC were to drop to FCS. Otherwise, the only logical move up for those two schools would be to the American ... and I'm not so sure that is even a good move at this point.

As soon as the MAC builds some momentum with Northern Illinois' victory over Notre Dame and Toledo's romp over Miss State, both trip up. NIU falls to Buffalo in OT, while UToledo squanders a lead at Western Kentucky. Simply put, the MAC is a league that can't have good things. Especially...

When UMass announced it was going to the MAC, there was some chatter that the MAC might take UConn for football only, with the caveat that a scheduling arrangement be made for 3-5 men's and women's basketball games annually -- including games MAC teams would host. Toledo's attendance in women's...

The NLRB formally files for a 10-J injunction. If successful, this puts the expired contract back into effect and will force the P-G to pay damages. It's not something the NLRB does often...

UPDATE: Outage has to do with an AP upgrade. Thought it was local, but it seems to be more widespread. Anyone else have AP wire loss since just before 8 p.m Eastern? We haven't gotten anything new on our main feed, our photo wire, or AP Newsroom...

AP never updated its U.S. Open graphic after Rahm pulled out. Lists him as a player to watch.

Grab the popcorn ... the Block brothers are going to court for control of the company. Family feud: Lawsuit says Post-Gazette publisher wants to sell paper as brothers clash

NLRB weighs in. PG could face a 10-J injunction, which would be a big win for the Guild. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Is In Some Hot Water

Longtime Toledo coach Tricia Cullop in final talks to become head coach at Miami-Coral Gables. Won a WNIT title a few years back, led Toledo to a MAC title and first-round upset of Iowa State a year ago and reached the WNIT quarterfinals this year. Toledo also has one of the top 30 home...

Toledo, the regular-season MAC champ for the fourth straight year, does its annual choke job at the conference tournament against the usual suspect, Kent State. Of the four straight regular-season titles, they only make the conference title game once.

The paper I worked at in the former Freedom chain (RIP) had some blowout Christmas parties. I've worked in three chains since. Maybe one holiday party between them in nearly two decades. And I had to miss it since I was on the desk that night.

An update from the negotiations side of things. Long story short: The NLRB doesn't move quickly. One year after walking out, workers at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette remain on strike

Copeland's former son-in-law wanted to be the next Robert Schuller, right down to the medallion, and tried to do so in the United Methodist Church. That did not end well... Following departure of controversial pastor, Epworth United Methodist tries to rebuild

The local Triple-A team has cut off all pregame access, both locker room and BP. Really cuts back on the amount of feature work that can be done ... and, in turn, coverage.

That's a very interesting take. And relevant. The Blocks are being represented by King and Ballow, which was involved in that baseball strike as one of the firms representing the owners.

Guild wins big in front of administrative law judge, who rules the company acted illegally when it imposed a contract.

Allan Block and his wife, Susan, show their true colors.
