\u201cHow marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be!\u201d<\/strong><\/span> Kick it!<\/p>\n I always root for San Diego State because I like Brian Dutcher\u2026but after all the whining about North Carolina being in the tourney, I was happy the Tar Heels won.<\/p>\n You have to wonder how some people keep their jobs in sports media. Anyone saying the Rams signing of Davante Adams was bad is clueless.<\/p>\n Adams is signed for two years at 44 million, but only 26 of those rocks are guaranteed. So, with just a little observation and effort, you can see it is a one-year deal that hamstrings neither the team nor the player if things go bad.<\/p>\n It’s a brilliant deal.<\/p>\n Staying on the Rams, I don’t know how the Chargers let Poona Ford change locker rooms at SoFi\u2026<\/p>\n I’ve wanted to share this for a few weeks, but if they can find health and keep it, the Lakers are a threat this year.<\/p>\n Luka Doncic is less than Jordan, and LeBron James\u2014not fat dogging a groin injury\u2014is more than Pippen.<\/p>\n I’m not a Dodgers fan, but I am curious about what is happening with Mookie Betts.<\/p>\n How many games does Mike Trout play for the Angels this year? More than 125 or less?<\/p>\n If the WNBA is signing up replacement players, let me know\u2026 I have a 70% miss rate inside the paint.<\/p>\n Trump would have an easier time scoring in Canada than the Aztecs did against North Carolina on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n Going to Buffalo Wild Wings on Thursday to watch the tourney\u2026but it hasn’t been the same since they got rid of their sliders.<\/p>\n Greatest NCAA tourney game I ever saw? Louisville-Houston, Final Four 1983\u2026I was rooting for the Cardinals<\/p>\n Happiest I’ve been after an NCAA tourney game? Villanova over Georgetown in the 1985 finals\u2026Marquette over North Carolina in 1977 was pretty good as well.<\/p>\n In his latest mock, NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah has Sheduer Sanders going third overall to the New York Giants\u2026Ashton Jeanty going to the Raiders at #6\u2026Arizona wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan going to the Bolts at #22\u2026and Ole Miss cornerback Trey Amos going to the Rams at #26\u2026<\/p>\n I’m good with Amos\u2026 I’d also be good with a trade out of the first round.<\/p>\n Last thought on the NFL\u2026The Cincinnati Bengals had Joe Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins last season, and they missed the playoffs. They have them all back this coming season for more money\u2026 what will be different?<\/p>\n Burrow, Chase, and Higgins combined are over 33% of the Bengals salary cap in 2025<\/p>\n Always glad when there is more football, so I’m glad that APU is bringing back football. But honestly, the decision to move up to D-2 wasn’t that long ago.<\/p>\n I know the argument was about travel, yet they had to know that when they made the move in 2012. Dixie State in St. George, Utah, was the opponent then.<\/p>\n Either they weren’t all in, or they just made a terrible decision. It seems apparent that they’re into D-2 with a D-3\/NAIA mindset.<\/p>\n My other thought was, okay, drop football and then put all your capital into the basketball program like Cal Baptist did\u2026But they didn’t even do that.<\/p>\n A lot of people are happy, great. Football is back! But I see a missed opportunity for Zu Nation.<\/p>\n The Dude abides\u2026<\/p>\n 1,231 By Joe Torosian \u201cHow marvelous! How wonderful!
