Multi-millionaire married to a supermodel gives away car that he "owned" for all of fifteen minutes. Gee, stop the presses, fs4l, that's quite a story!

Did I miss the Stanley Cup banner-raising in Boston last June? Back on topic...sure looked like Dean has renounced all things UND this past weekend.

I've watched a lot of red paint dry over the years - especially 1997, 1998, 2002, and 2008!

http://unothegateway.com/fear-the-fish/ The story of how the fish and the Mavboni came about...and yes, the fish idea was borrowed from Alaska-Anchorage...

BU goal at 19:37 of the 2nd...that one hurts.

Buzzed driving is drunk driving!

Dave Bergman, known for the hidden-ball trick at 1B and a member of the 1984 World Series champion Detroit Tigers, has died. He was 61. http://www.freep.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2015/02/02/detroit-tigers-dave-bergman/22755701/ I was and am a Tigers fan. That 1984 season was incredible in so many ways and there were so many great players on that team. A 9-0 start to the season and 35-5 after 40 games - just wow. Bergman's walk-off 3-run homer against the Blue Jays in early June of that season was a key moment for that team. So many great players - Chet Lemon, Larry Herndon, Darrell Evans, Kirk Gibson, Dan Petry, Jack Morris, Willie Hernandez, Lance Parrish, Aurelio Lopez...it's a travesty that Lou Whitaker and Alan Trammell are not in the Hall of Fame. A damn MLB travesty. Rest in peace, Dave Bergman. And thanks for the memories of that magical season at Tiger Stadium. It's hard to believe it was 30 years ago.

ESPN's 30 for 30 episode this Sunday is "Of Miracles and Men." The preview asks the question "what if...the miracle we remember is the game they want to forget." I bet it'll be interesting.

Saw Rob Grobkowski on Jimmy Kimmel's show last night. Seriously, he HAS to be Ogre's son. The guy is a moron.

I love sports as much as the next guy - probably moreso - but citizens should be outraged at the amount of money put into these ventures. As long as fans continue to fill the stands, owners will hold them hostage when they think a stadium upgrade is in order. Football is the one that really kills me. A couple of meaningless exhibition games, 8 regular season games, and maybe a home playoff game or two. At whatever cost is necessary, I guess.

Joe Robbie Stadium? Pro Player Park? Pro Player Stadium? Dolphins Stadium? Dolphin Stadium? Land Shark Stadium? Update? How about just changing the name again?

Nope. Check out what happened in 1978... http://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/2015/02/01/beanpot-semifinal-games-postponed-tuesday/hFhf8pWqK8v9D6LMDilwRJ/story.html

Harvard vs BU and Northeastern vs BC postponed until tomorrow. Should be great Beanpot. If Harvard and Northeastern win, do the Gophers get moved to the 7:00pm game anyways?

Atlanta's new stadium is projected to cost 1.2 billion dollars. And in 20 years, they'll want another one.

Wee-ooh wee-ooh wee-ooh. I'm calling Sicatoka!

Aren't the Georgia Dome and Turner Field only 20 or so years old?

If Holl gets 2:00 for high sticking Rocco, the Sioux get a 5 x 3 power play for almost 2:00 in OT and .6 never happens.

UNO Saturday thread? For a second there, I thought I was in Daily Boston Bruins News.
-
"Winning" with an asterisk. The game is officially a tie, although Wisconsin gained an extra point in the B10 standings.
-
Seattle STILL had to score a touchdown after that...by driving 50 or so yards. We're talking 3 chances to score a TD from about a foot out. Hell, Goon should gotten a carry on 2nd down before that pass should have been attempted.
-
Has anyone else seen this "greatest Super Bowl catches ever" that they've been showing since last night on ESPN? #5 Butch Johnson of the Cowboys against the Broncos in Super Bowl XII...just wow. He holds the ball for a millisecond and it's a TD. Unreal.
-
If Cliff Avril doesn't get injured, Seattle wins that game. Their defense was not the same after he left the game.

An NBA player can tell if a hoop is "too tight" or there isn't any give to it...an MLB ballplayer can tell if a bat is one ounce lighter or heavier than his usual bat..but I'm supposed to believe that a guy who has thrown a football since he was 5 years old can't tell the difference between 13.5 PSI vs 11.5? C'mon!
