The Sabanization Of College Football Is A Total Bummer
Yesterday we lauded San Diego State's Rocky Long for potentially eschewing the kick (field goals or punts) in fourth-down situations, a strategic move that's become something of a totem in the advanced football stats discussion.

The Red Sox lost a baseball game last night, dropping their record to three games below .500, and you know what that means, don't you?

Grand Quarterback Pronouncements Based On A Few Preseason Drives
