    Who the fuck is this guy?

    pac12 expansion.jpg

    Used to be with the Jets.

    Doubled down, so his 15 minutes of fame probably end tomorrow afternoon:

    I tried checking some message boards.  Claims to be ISU fan and Des Moines journo but nothing on his tweets today in ISU's realignment thread.  247 writer for FSU said 2 hours ago that he hasn't heard any rumblings and nothing seems imminent with the Pac.  'Strong' expansion candidate SD St doesn't even have a 247 message board...

    In other news reported by that Flagstaff 'journo' who tweeted this morning AZ, WA, and Utah to B12:

    @name having no visible relation to the claimed name is always a good sign.

    From a blue check:

    Boise St Jobs Corps coming across as maybe not an optimal academic, cultural fit...

  3. Pretty wild having a simultaneous double squeeze play from cars and motorbikes.  Pretty sure I heard, "Dammit Chloe!" out of Jack Bauer.

    Loved seeing JV grab the yellow, but thought for sure TP would soon grab it back.  Then after JV kept holding it and making this a good race, unexpectedly I started rooting for TP to win it back for Paris.  But that sportsmanship move today by JV changed that.

    Obviously HOF caliber pitchers are an exception. Safe to say Javier is not close to that. He’s having a good year and had what will undoubtably be the best start of his career last time out. It doesn’t mean he’s going to get shelled today or anything but the yanks will touch him up for some runs. Stanton’s going deep, he was hot going into break and then was ASG mvp.

    Who's on first, what's on second?

    1. AZ/Colorado want out
    2. Big 12 says bring Oregon/Washington
    3. Oregon/Washington say, "We Big Ten Bitches!"
    4. Big Ten Says "no you're not"
    5. Utah says, "We're totally Big Ten, right?   Guys?  Right?!"
    6. Oregon/Washington tell the Pac they want more money
    7. See #1

    AZ and Utah know that they could end up like ORSU and WSU, easily left out by the B12 should the Pac breakup.  ASU is in a market 5 times the size of Tucson and BYU is already in the B12, so their best chance of getting an invite is to act now and be the first dominoes to fall.

    That said, message boarders should Google "Inertia".  Any $$$ difference between future Pac and future B12 is likely not significant enough to warrant the upheaval of a conference jump.  Probably other factors would have to swing the decision.

    Interesting development...no mention of CU or ASU.  Haven't seen UDub mentioned w/o Oregon until now:

     

     

    Gotta save the 16th spot for Notre Dame.  This is why that SidelinesShowBob129613623 report is wrong.

    Naw, Pepperdine will save the Pac.

    He's really fighting the fight for Cal and Stanford.  

    Looks like Wilner thinks they may need a landing spot, in the last few weeks he ditched his long time twitter avatar of Fauci's face on the Heisman.

    That Ainias Smith was scheduled to represent aggy tomorrow at SEC Media Days really is the Chef's kiss.

    He bailed out, so the onus is on Ainias to still show?

    Full on bargaining and moving towards acceptance...

     

     

    Maybe the B12 going for just 6 is being polite and respecting California's preference, since they're pretty much all on CA's boycott list.

  10. Tom Rinaldi, for the 100th time in the broadcast, asking Stanton to tell the story of how he hit his home run to where he may have sat in the stands once growing up.  Except this time, in Rinaldi style, he hit it to the exact seat where he would always sit on his grandpapa's lap at Dodgers games, the seat where grandpapa had caught home runs from Jackie Robinson, and the seat where his grandpapa died in from cancer exactly 10 years ago to the day.
