    Yeah most websites like these have a partnership with something like Google Ads and what you see is generated based on your computers cookies. You could have been looking up something specific like Gators schedule or recruiting. Or even something generic like college football, and the algorithm found the ad it thought would best get you to click and buy.

    Before last night he had like 8 carries for 18 yards. He is on the outside looking in. EDIT: Not sure if he would be one of the 10 practice squad players either. From what I understand the minimum on that is $7.6k a week, times 17 weeks = $129k...still a great living for the average American.

    I give Taggart a lot of credit. He has leveraged a sub par playing career and a relationship with the Harbaughs into a top 10 coaching position. His career record is 47-50, he has never won a bowl game, and the best his team has finished is second in its division. He has personality, can really sell himself and seems to be a decent recruiter. But has there ever been a hire at a major program like this that had achieved so little?

    No its not. This isn't the NFL this is college football. The drop off from Frost to the guy they got can't be understated. Frost is a generational coach IMO. Herpes was an OC who ran up the score against a bunch of 4-8 teams. They scored 3 points against Purdue, people forget that. And thats before you get to the talent they lost on the field. The WR who is playing in the NFL, the one armed wonder on defense, a CB who was picked in the first round. Honestly with the right breaks I can see them as a 1 loss team, but I can also see them dropping 3-4 games. And if Milton or Killins get hurt I think they are a 6-6 team.

    I agree, I'm just speculating on the future. I dont think the answer is longer courses, I think its bigger penalties for missing. Koepka isnt trying to miss, but he knows the advantage of 30-40 yards outweighs a rough approach, or a scramble. As tech improves and guys get stronger, I'm not sure its great for golf to see three and a half football field drives if they end up on the cart path half the time. May just be me

    The man who won (and doing it pretty regularly now) says fairways don't matter, if you carry 310+ a wedge out of the rough is better than a 7 or 8 out of the fairway. I tend to believe his results, driving accuracy of 56% or 163rd on tour, 5th best scoring average. If the trend continues they may have to "Kopeka Proof" the courses.

    He had a few additional plays that I think the stats bailed him out on. That first game there was a bad exchange that didnt go against him. He also dropped a pitch that the Titans recovered, which didnt go against him. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/0ap3000000882940/Marlon-Mack-drops-toss-from-Brissett-Kevin-Byard-hops-on-fumble-at-4-yard-line

    Most likely his 1 shot to become a "feature" back in todays NFL. Hope he can figure out the fumbleitis and become a bit more consistent at turning the 2 and 10 into 2 and 6.

    They may not be losing subscribers but they are losing viewership around anything that isn't a live sporting event. Regardless of which way they lean, I don't even bother with Sportcenter anymore because I don't even get the lame highlight package we used to. Anecdotally this story is repeated thousands of times on any sports platform, ranging from Barstool to Youtube. Advertisers hear this and do not want to pay for time slots that have no one watching.

    I think Q has proved people wrong his whole life, and I don't see this opportunity being any different.

    I know he has a young one to provide for. Do whatever it takes to get on a squad. Return kicks, play safety, waterboy...even practice squad players are making 6 figures...

    Yeah and to be honest I don't love NBC production on anything. The game on Golf channel didn't show the first lightning goal, they cut to commercial after an icing call instead of doing the split screen commercial.

    With the War on I4 being played in Tampa this year they had to do something to boost attendance. Smart.

    I can see UCF missing a bowl game with how up and down they get. I guess Navy could make the playoffs and thus play in 2 "bowl" games, but I doubt thats what they meant.

    Its about a 30% gap right now. So $50k canada money would be $38k usd....def not great and would make a difference. A few years ago it was pretty close (maybe even inverted?), but dollar has strengthened in that market. I think when I went to Niagara in 2013 it was 1:1 or I was actually losing a penny or two...probably picked the worst time to visit Canada ever.

    If that is the average than they are well above the median salary. The only reason they would need a second job is if they are trying to live a baller life style off of $80k.

    The most popular annual tournament in the world, the UEFA Champions League, has broadcasts on Facebook.

    This was just a list of schools that have had a lot of success in college basketball

    It looks like all three have done nothing but help their stock this weekend.

    Yeah Peterson is the man. Two years ago he said all of this nonsense would happen in Canada and people called him a loon. He can get too reliant on the Bible and is more of a pure Capitalist than I prefer but he brings a reasoned and intelligent discussion to just about every topic.

    I'm sorry where is the scoreboard for what the cheerleaders do at football games? 29 years of football and I must have been missing an integral part of the game.

    The Sun Dolls and USF Cheerleaders are removed from the games? https://www.yahoo.com/gma/grid-girls-speak-against-formula-1s-decision-ban-231803061--abc-news-topstories.html

    I have to give you credit. As a deep sleeper cell it took you over 13 years to come out of the closet as a UCF troll but alas the last 3 months have proved it.

    I was curious how the reception would be in todays PC, CTE culture. I personally thought he was going to go full WWE with it but they are really playing it a different way. While the press conference was woefully uninformative and lame, the branding can absolutely work. The extreme will just focus on the football instead of the gimmicks. I personally hope they tack all of the innovative ideas people have thrown out to make the game better, and create a product that is viable. This would give more opportunity for fringe players to make a buck, push the NFL to do better, and create an entertainment platform in the sports lull between the Super Bowl and the NHL playoffs.

    Yes. Vince is just financing it not making up the rules. They are planning it for 2 years before they play, not 2 months. There is a very conservative base of people who have fled the NFL for many reasons and he is looking to capitilize on this market. I still think it should be an U25 league and he should go after top prospects from the NCAA.
