This is the definition of cancel culture.

#Cubs on Thursday: 12 runs on 17 hits #Cubs in their last three games (Fri-Sun): Two runs on eight hits

At the moment; NC State plays ONE home game against a ranked team, this season: NORTHERN ILLINOIS

Yeah, real tough start to the year for Ohio State! Akron AND Western Michigan

NFL Rookie QBs today have been brutal.

I started Baker Mayfield over Trevor Lawrence. I am an intelligent mammal.

Jayden Daniels was by far the most impressive rookie QB today.

Baker Mayfield career QBR in season opening starts: ‘19: 64.1 ‘20: 65.0 ‘21: 97.5 ‘22: 84.6 ‘23: 94.4 TODAY: 146.4

As of now, #Purdue football plays FOUR of its final FIVE home games against ranked opponents: vs. #18 Notre Dame on 9/14 vs. #23 Nebraska on 9/28 vs. #9 Oregon on 10/18 vs. #8 Penn State on 11/16 At the same time, ONE of Purdue’s SIX road games is against a ranked opponent.

Every major conference’s non-conference record vs. ranked opponents, through two weeks: Big Ten (2-1) SEC (3-4) Big 12 (2-3) ACC (0-2) **Notre Dame is a Power 4 opponent**

Notre Dame fans that want Marcus Freeman fired are wrong. When Notre Dame lost to Marshall in his first home game as HC, the Irish won nine of their next 11 games, including four victories over top 20 teams. Watch how ND responds against Purdue, and for the rest of the year.

Jake Moody now leads the #Jets, 20-13.

Top 5 opening week rushing yards leaders: 1. Joe Mixon (159) 2, Jordan Mason (147) 3. J.K. Dobbins (135) 4. Lamar Jackson (122) 5. Rhamondre Stevenson (120)

#NIU RB Antario Brown has caught four passes this season: vs. WIU: 33-yard catch 12-yard catch @ Notre Dame: 83-yard TD catch 43-yard catch

Tough start for the AFC South and AFC North.
