Rich Rodriguez: Some Michigan players 'felt a sense of entitlement': He was implementing a spread-option offense, while working mostly with players recruited for a pro-style scheme, and said he just needed time.

Will U-M embrace Fab 5?: If it is indeed true that time heals all wounds, then the University of Michigan athletic department should have no qualms about welcoming back members of the Fab Five and other basketball standouts from the late 1990s inside the Crisler Center next year.

Runner carries injured foe half mile to help in middle of race: "I didn't think about my race, I knew I needed to stop and help him," Ripley said in the school district release. "It was something I would expect my other teammates to do. I'm nothing special; I was just in the right place at the right time." In today's "Everyman For Himself" society, its nice to hear stories like this.

61-year-old Vietnam vet makes the cut as a small-college kicker: What a great story. Be nice to know his stats/skill level at that age.

Bears refuse to bend to new kickoff rule, told by league to stop mid-game: How far will the NFL go to ruin tradition, with this rule teams like Oakland will never have to cover a kick off.

NY was a bad situation for him, and I don't see another NFL team issuing a High school type playbook like Denver did, he needs to accept the fact that QB is not an option like many players do, and then he can possibly have a good pro career, and continue be loved and to spread his message.

This should not be an issue for Stern, this is a team issue. If the Lakers don't want this strategy used against them then fix it! Its just like in baseball, it your pitching staff cant compete with a hitter and you keep walking him, you dont get to change the strike zone because your pitcher cant beat him.

I find myself watching the game I love a little less as time go's on and I think this idea, if implemented, will push me over the edge.

@beaverboard: I agree, I remember when Texas, Nebraska, OKL and the "BIG 8" were powerfull, Bo & Woody would have problems with this.

RIGHT cixelsyd, No one benefited more from the "steroid era" than the Yankees. They should wear green pinstripes.

There is no way they dig up this horrible skeleton, lets just work on replacing those banners with new ones.

If its true that U of Florida is afraid of FSU joining the SEC that seems crazy not to ad a powerfull school if you can. thats why I think the Big 10 is better off with NE than Mizzou & were courting N.D. forever.

It is sad the obscene amounts of money the NCAA and its schools make off these young men, but like a lot of others, he felt it was worth the risk and took the chance.

I agree with lil_brown_bat, she is far too young to go through this. As a Michigan/Big Ten fan & SEC hater I tip my hat to the Best Ever.

Atheist,..Nfl player's contract's are not garenteed, meaning players do not get to leave without a trade or buyout. They would have to sit out at least a season, but owners can dump players at anytime for any reason! Not quite fair as you think.

Penalties for what? this is not an NCAA issue, this had nothing to do with the football team or athletic program itself, Sandusky has not been employed by the school in a long time. He was just granted permision to use the facilities for his so called "Youth Program."

I'm curious how they enforce any ban on a sporting event like this, do they place an id chip under your skin?lol I've never seen posters at entrances before, how is this done?

This a scary condition, in my paternal family I've lost Two Aunts & Two Uncles at relatively young ages & as a child I remember being poked with needles on a regular basis, which now I know was to test me for this disease. It just slowly destroys your body.

Is it just me, or is everyone ignoring Pat Lee's ejection? Good luck finding any news on it, typical media/fan bias BS.

Goodell wants your team to sign Tim Tebow
beaverboard: "Somebody should have been able to stop that Tebow-led unit."
I recall a declining team and coach who lost to appalachian state in 07 did just that in a Bowl game played in the state of FL.
