By Henry Abbott Yesterday, Sonny Vaccaro explained why he feels defensive about Brandon Jennings. Jennings, says Vaccaro, has endured criticism -- and perhaps was drafted artificially low -- as punishment for playing his post-high school year playing professionally in Italy, instead of paying his dues to the powers that be in NCAA basketball. The way people talked about Jennings leading up to the...
Jay Culter, Lovie Smith and Jerry Angelo have all decided to snub Bob Costas and NBC for sit-down interviews in advance of this weekend's Sunday Night Football game against the Eagles. Smith told reporters, "it's kind of time for us to play football." Costas told NBC's Chicago affiliate WMAQ : "In this particular case, I certainly don't take it personally. It's obvious that they have...
I know this my day to give predictions, and we’ll get to those. But I’ll let you know now that they’ll be brief. From time to time I ask for permission to use this space to share something personal with you. This is another one of those times. Yesterday we lost a damn good man and a damn good sportswriter. Steve Ellis of the Tallahassee Democrat covered Florida State for nearly 30...

Believe it or not, Notre Dame plays a football game tomorrow, and its Senior Day nonetheless. With all the news, rumors, and gossip about the possible coaching search, the game itself seems to have become a bit of an afterthought. Granted, a late November game against UConn with nothing really on the line is hardly a stirring matchup, but it's still the final chance for ND fans to see a number of players...

I've been a Michigan fan for two decades and I have never had a greater feeling of dread before an Ohio State game than I do for the one that will be played in Ann Arbor tomorrow. There have been times where I felt really nervous. (1997 comes to mind. The fourth quarter of that game was absolute torture. 10.75 perfect games coming down to a terrifying effort at holding onto a six-point lead with an...
