This is EXACTLY the kind of February CFB content that I crave. Forget thinking about a season that's seven months away. I want a reminder that UNC chose to hire John Bunting over Marvin Lewis or that Arizona looked at John Mackovic's Texas tenure and said "yes, that sounds great!"

First a text from an apparel company offering Buckeye national title gear and now this. Fuck off, push notifications!

Die Zeit, a prominent German publication, titles its article: 'A Hitler salute is a Hitler salute is a Hitler salute.'

Congrats to Ohio State for surmounting the great adversity of [checks notes] their own fan base sending death threats to their head coach. Also, it’s a treat when Herbstreit lets the mask drop. www.nytimes.com/athletic/607...

So Ohio State are going to blot out the “M” in “National Champions,” right?

If Notre Dame wins this game they'll turn it into weird lore, if Ohio State wins this game some of the worst people on earth will be momentarily happy before they are reminded that they couldn't score 14 points against a 6-5 team with a QB made of potato.

No, Matt Hayes, Ohio State being denied holding calls is not "the definition of conspiracy." Words: what do they mean?

I don’t know why people are arguing about the meaning of this gesture, the Lazio eagle would know *exactly* whose arm it was supposed to land on

Odd that big British and French and Irish and Israeli news organizations have already posted stories on this, but not yet the @nytimes.com or @washingtonpost.com.

However, as any historian of this country will tell you, the 14th Amendment means only what the Supreme Court says it means and not one thing more, language and precedent notwithstanding. This is how we get the 14th Amendment applied to corporations but not Black people by the 1890s.

"Constitutional Conservatives."

Anybody who fell for “they’re just concerned about the integrity of women’s sports” is a huge dupe. A useful idiot. This was always about turning the power of the state against a marginalized minority group, which has been the GOP’s primary play as long as I have been alive.

Reading “Why Nations Fail” and listening to this. Happy Inauguration Day! overcast.fm/+ABClHh-d6-U

“We Must Have Been Out Of Our Minds” is one of the great duets. A go-to for me and Mrs. B&B. RIP.

The last minute of Northwestern-Michigan took 21 minutes

You know you’re playing against a Coach K protege when the opponent doesn’t make a field goal in overtime and takes 13 free throws. Also, they have a big white gump who looks like Mose Schrute.
