This was absurdly unrealistic. AC Slater had a wrestling scholarship offer from Iowa. Do you have any idea how tough an Iowa wrestler is? Zack Morris is never, ever getting up from an Iowa wrestler's takedown. twitter.com/wiretaup/statu…

Clark sees the court so well that sometimes she sees her teammates are open and gets them the ball before they realize they're open and they're taken by surprise when the ball comes to them.

Good: The women's national championship game tips off at 3 p.m. on a Sunday.
Bad: The men's national championship game tips off at 9:20 p.m. on a Monday.

Iowa-UConn drew 14.2 million viewers. That's more than every NBA Finals game and every World Series game of the last four years. Caitlin Clark's star power is incredible.

Marcus Spears just said on ESPN that the Bills' Super Bowl window is closed. That's nonsense. Of course this Bills team could win the Super Bowl.

These trade terms show the Bills were eager to move on from Diggs. This isn't some incredible haul of draft picks. This is, 'Let's unload him for the first halfway decent offer we get.' twitter.com/DMRussini/stat…

12.3 million viewers for LSU-Iowa last night. Massive. For perspective, the five games of last year's NBA Finals averaged 11.6 million viewers.

15.1 million viewers for an Elite Eight game is an enormous audience. Last year's most-watched NBA Finals game got 13.1 million viewers. Even in the NIL era, college athletes are severely underpaid relative to the revenue they're bringing in. twitter.com/SportsTVRating…

It's so weird how sometimes in college basketball they'll halt the game for five minutes to examine a replay from every angle and other times they'll just shrug and say, 'The refs didn't see it and they guessed wrong, whatcha gonna do?'

This is a New York Times columnist quoting an NPR reporter, neither of whom seem to have applied the basic common sense that would have told them 30,000 trucks would clog hundreds of miles of roads. twitter.com/NickKristof/st…

I'm excited about this rule change. I don't think we'll ever see another Super Bowl without a kickoff return. That's a good thing for the sport. twitter.com/ProFootballTal…

Politics is awash in money. This is unseemly. In a world where our choices are Biden or Trump, Biden is easily the better choice, but we shouldn't pretend it's healthy for our democracy that rich people buy exclusive access to presidents. twitter.com/seungminkim/st…
