Dodgers/Giants are postponed:

No live sports today.

Still no Delaware State or Marist though...

https://bigten.org/news/2020/8/19/general-an-open-letter-to-the-big-ten-community.aspx Big Ten released a letter listing factors that led to the decision, stating financials did not play a factor, and assembling a "Return to Competition" task force.

Completely disagree. If people listen to Scott there was no mention of leaving the conference and he was clear in his message. The reason we clarified was because some A hole national guys take it out of context and create a fake narrative that we had to address. If the Big Ten deems it unsafe to play football, then I'm pretty sure that means they feel it's unsafe to play football whether it's against Big Ten opponents or non-conference opponents. Frost found himself in a compromising position when the Big Ten commissioner retorted and Frost doubled down.

This.

Prairie View A&M players drafted in the NBA: 1977 Rd 5 Pk 95 Marvin Jackson 1974 Rd 6 Pk 95 Lawrence Johnson 1966 Rd 10 Pk 87 Guy Manning 1962 Rd 1 Pk 3 Zelmo Beaty

I wouldn't go quite that far.

Meanwhile in Miles' office as he called recruits:

I think he's going to KU for grad school to eventually become a professor in journalism.

The 1994 Expos called. They want their World Series back.

Union Omaha gets its first goal and first ever win for the history books. And against the reigning champion of 2019. FWIW, Union Omaha is in League One (below USL Championship and MLS in the US soccer league system).

Or this part: The first time I talked with Miles after he was fired, he was driving back from North Dakota. He told me that, days after being fired, he went to see his parents. “I told them, ‘Mom, Dad, do you know who the Patriots quarterback was before Tom Brady?’ ” Miles recalled to me. “That’s who I am.” And that’s the difference. Miles sees himself as Drew Bledsoe. Hoiberg — though bashful — Brady.

Speaking of Heady:

Kelly throws a couple balls past the Astros and gets an 8-game suspension. Astros cheat their way to the World Series and has zero suspensions. Something doesn't seem right here.

I only read up to "If Hoiberg gets rid of our NCAA goose egg..." And the answer is "Yes".

MLB is "in jeopardy" with some teams postponing games already.
