HEARTBREAKING: ESPN analyst Troy Aikman became emotional during Monday Night Football while paying tribute to longtime colleague David Moulton. “He was a fighter right up until the end… he left a hole in a lot of people’s hearts. Just a good man” RIP 🥹

A “heartwarming” story where a baseball player didn’t retire because the healthcare industry is a scam ❤️
Two years ago, Jake Bauers told his agent he was retiring. His wife would return to teaching while he stayed home with their child. Three days later, she told him she was pregnant. He returned to baseball for the health insurance. Tonight, he hit the go-ahead home run in the NLCS. What a story. What a swing.

When you can show us the coaches and ADs that stay in smaller markets rather than leaving for a better opportunity, maybe people will empathize. It’s just “business” for coaches and administrators, yet loyalty is questioned with players, and “it’s all about the money.” Please.
"It's All About Money" as UCLA HC @CoachMickCronin speaks the TRUTH about Recruiting and Retainment in this clip from yesterdays @bigten Men's Basketball Media Day. Coach always keeps it real and we HEAR he flips a mean burger too!

Alexi Casilla drove in Carlos Gómez for the most exciting run in #MNTwins regular season history in the bottom of the 12th of Game 163 on this date in 2009. After falling behind, they tied it up in the bottom of the 10th off Fernando Rodney, who was still out there in the 12th.

If athletes create less value, then surely universities would be comfortable letting the free market decide, no?
This morning on ESPN's First Take, Nick Saban argued player and coach pay are "totally different markets." "That's like asking me 'Does a student's scholarship equal the professor's pay?' I mean, how much value does a coach create for a university?" 📺 💰️

More people need to call BS on this sanctimonious nonsense. John Calipari has made well over $100 million coaching basketball and left three college head-coaching jobs for other opportunities. Two programs he coached had Final Four appearances vacated. Now he’s backing PCSA to “save college sports.” Here are my questions: What is he putting on the table? A salary cap? A pay cut? Limits on his own mobility? Everybody loves shared sacrifice when their share is zero.
Just got back from a few days in DC meeting with lawmakers. The Protect College Sports Act is not perfect but we need to end this chaos now. We need stability or we will lose sports and lose opportunities for student athletes.

LSU owe brian Kelly 54 mill. Texas A&M owed jimbo 77 mil. So no one wants to cap coaches salaries to protect schools?? No, its the players fault!

College GameDay has turned into a forum for folks like Ted Cruz and Nick Saban to shill for the Protect College Sports Act. I figured someone ought to discuss just how many of their talking points are misleading or false. Gift column: nytimes.com/athletic/7591618…

Pablo Torre can obviously fight his own battles, but I can't get over how many prominent people in media downplayed, refuted, and even mocked his Clippers reporting and are now just silent on the whole thing. Massive outlets ran cover for the Clippers and now just ... move on.
