    This was well done. Like the Larry Nassar story, it's shocking and infuriating how many victims piled up over so many years. Really courageous of the many athletes who sat down for painful interviews. The recent OSU administrations have continued to fight legal claims even as the school soars into the stratosphere of athletic and financial success. Jim Jordan is as awful as we already knew.

  2. They can't come out and say "Iowa can't make the CFP without help" or "We need to keep Charleston Southern on our schedule" so instead we get weeks of posturing. Neither B1G (4 guaranteed spots) nor SEC (stay at 8 conf games) has a good argument. At least at this point we're basically having a stare down over whether Iowa or South Carolina makes it in a certain year. Not a ton of money involved either way.

  3. Sappy finale but I guess they know their audience. Same reason they were always brief and vague about the Gilead revolution and takeover. Viewers like us on this board would be into that but the show is about the women and their struggle.

  4. 16 of the Eagles' 17 games next season will be against teams who voted to ban the tush push. Of the nine teams that voted with the Eagles, only Detroit is on their 2025 schedule. Seems like they lobbied mostly non-west AFC teams who could force the AFC West (plus Buffalo) to face the tush push and maybe hurt their wild card chances a little bit.

    Watched this too

    Plausible, but pretty cliche at times

      Hide contents

    Whole family survives - the daughter just happens to get off the first plane that easily, and then is one of, what, 3 survivors when the entire plane was hit by a tsunami

    Brother of the Thai tsunami girl being killed was pretty duh, saw that coming

     

    LOL your spoiler is why I turned it off early

    Spoiler

    Plane slams into a mountain, like 15 minutes later a bunch of survivors are already hanging out at the hospital

     

  6. ^ Same here. I think TWD got so bad, and I stayed with it so long, that it hastened my abandonment of this series. There's probably some really good parts happening, given the acting and cinematography, but not worth enduring even 1-2 weekly scenes that are TWD redux

  7. 1 seeds: Auburn

    8 seeds: Miss St

    9 seeds: Baylor, Creighton, OU

    14 seeds: Lipscomb, Montana, Troy, UNC Wilmington

    15 seeds: Bryant, Omaha, Robert Morris, Wofford

    16 seeds: Alabama St, Norfolk, SIUE and the winner of American/Mt St Mary
