Incredible Final Four. The closest thing to a Blue Blood is... a Miami program that has been trying to claw back to that status for 20 years? Love it.

“The Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl sponsored by Fresh Pet” is a series of words Pynchon or DeLillo could only dream of.

Tremendous look inside the coach/agent sausage factory (yes I am catching up on CFB articles at 11 pm on Christmas Eve)
College football coaching salaries are unreal. This agent stays grounded.
Clint Dowdle, a former protege of Jimmy Sexton, is making a name for himself by keeping it real in a world of weirdness and wealth.

And a column on the outsized outcry over letting the G6 participate in the playoff. In normal years, 50 percent of FBS is fighting for 8 percent of the bracket. And yet that's too much for some people who conveniently forget all the other blowouts. bit.ly/4ayohIB
Think Blowouts Make the College Football Playoff a Joke? It May Be Selective Memory
Tulane and James Madison’s admission to the 12-team bracket—and subsequent elimination—were unfairly scrutinized while past playoff results were ignored.

The sideline Keegan Michael Key spot felt forced, but in this house we support more quirky consumer brand bowl games over B2B companies and defense contractors.

1. The history of the CFP is littered with blowouts just as bad as this Oregon-JMU game but between top four teams
2. Whatever changes they make as a "result of today's games" they were probably just going to do anyway.

Glad to see Bama thought their playoff selection was as preposterous as I did. Protest noted, Tide. You can start playing anytime.

I wrote my way through it on the meltdown over the Mets offseason, which has mostly topped out at a sort of abstracted melancholy for me. Includes an exclusive never-before-seen anecdote of me crying at summer camp when they traded Mookie Wilson. defector.com/theyre-outta...
