I will never be a Buckeye fan, but Ryan Day and his team turned it on in the post-season so good for them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Last Add Ryan Day:<\/strong> I went into the post-game expecting ESPN to ask Day how he felt about beating the first African\/Asian American HC to make it to the college football national championship.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, I got Reece Davis and Scott Van Pelt&#8217;s discussion on faith affecting the Ohio State football players. Avoiding the low-hanging fruit of saying it was just for victory, but to a really nuanced sharing of the life-changing impact of faith across the OSU campus beyond football.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It was the most interesting thing I&#8217;ve seen on ESPN in 30 years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>***<br \/>\nThe Dodgers&#8217; signing of Roki Sasaki does not upset me as a Mets fan\u2026or as a baseball fan.<\/p>\n<p>All these whiners about financial unfairness weren&#8217;t whining when the Yankees and Red Sox were doing it twenty years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the Dodgers didn&#8217;t tell the Padres to waste all their capital on a series of bad contracts with questionable talent.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_87527\" style=\"width: 844px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-87527\" class=\"size-full wp-image-87527\" src=\"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/RamViewMVS.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"834\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/RamViewMVS.jpeg 834w, https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/RamViewMVS-400x240.jpeg 400w, https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/RamViewMVS-70x42.jpeg 70w, https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/RamViewMVS-768x460.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/RamViewMVS-150x90.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 834px) 100vw, 834px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-87527\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Monday-Wednesday-Friday at 5PM&#8230;on YouTube.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>***<br \/>\nCurious to see who Detroit Lions HC Dan Campbell brings in to replace Ben Johnson at OC.<\/p>\n<p>Campbell and GM Brad Holmes should already have a call out to Robert Saleh to replace Aaron Glenn at DC when the time comes.<\/p>\n<p>***<br \/>\n<strong>Note to Rams Fans:<\/strong> Two things are going to come out of this post-season for running back Kyren Williams.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>1.)\u2014He&#8217;ll do the work to quell the fumbling issue and have a great 2025. I believe he&#8217;s that kind of a player.<\/p>\n<p>2.)\u2014The fumbling issue means the Rams won&#8217;t be pressured to extend him before the end of his fourth year (the last of his rookie contract).<\/p>\n<p>***<br \/>\nThe Mets are not serious about contending if they can&#8217;t find a way to bring Pete Alonso back.<\/p>\n<p>***<br \/>\nCan I ask about commitment here? The Lakers were off Monday night. Tuesday night, they have a home game against the basketball team formerly known as the Bullets. In the interim, LeBron flies to Atlanta to watch the college football national championship.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you can say he&#8217;s earned the right to do that. Fine, but don&#8217;t tell me he&#8217;s committed to the Lakers in 2024-2025.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d be hacked if I were a teammate, coach, general manager, or owner.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the Lakers are only a half-game away from being in the play-in tourney. You don&#8217;t have to be Nostradamus to see them making the playoffs, getting bounced, and the same off-season narrative starting all over again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note to Jeanie Buss:<\/strong> You no longer have the chips to play this game.
