I tried to clean it up as best at possible, but if you would like to view it in paragraph form head over to Deitsch at SI (link below). As far as the staggered starting times....I love it! The only problem is trying to figure out if I even get TRU TV.
CBS, Turner set to televise all NCAA tournament games nationally (Sports Illustrated)
Seriously, does Fox not have a goal line camera? Am I watching a High School broadcast? This is embarrassing.
Joe Buck was a trending topic on Twitter after the game last night... for all the wrong reasons. My favorite tweet came from Every Day Should Be Saturday:
"Everything Joe Buck says just sounds like "I'm dead inside, my soul is full of old toenails."
Aikman just called the formation Green Bay used on its second touchdown "the big bone".
Whoever on Pittsburgh made the decision for squib kick should be fired immediately. If you want to prevent a return kick it in endzone for touchback
LIke how Dierdorf says "Tomlin will want to take a close look at this" after the Mendenhall fumble. It was five minutes ago that a huge deal was made about Tomlin being out of challenges. Dan is not good at his job.
Not football related :
"He's got a rush hour handle on that. Get to a lot of places in tight quarters." -
Clark Kellog on MD-Villanova
Not even gonna try to figure it out
