Been listening to a lot of Bliss N Esso and @tophousetheband lately and so my Spotify weekly served up this band on my Discover Weekly. A bit on the nose but I’m here for it. (Exactly what it sounds like, bluegrass band with a rapper).

$130 for an all-session pass (7 sessions). Not a bad deal.
Average College Football playoff ticket is $2500. So that means CFP is roughly 140x the value of NCAA swimming championships, per session.
I didn't invent math don't @ me.

These were the two names I was hearing most loudly in the rumor mill. If anybody else shows up this season, it would be a surprise to me.

When I was at A&M, they built a new indoor track that was one of the best of the country. Pat Henry, A&M's track coach at the time (one of the GOATs) had them install a sprint straightaway separate from the rest of the track, right up against the spectator seating so they'd get a front row view.

Everyone remembers Jimmy Carter's Olympic boycott. But he also signed the Ted Stevens Amateur Sports Act into law. Two years apart, one of the highest and one of the lowest moments in American Olympic history.

There's a college in New York where they keep track of the individual all-time scorers in program history and I think that's awesome.

He’s 17!! Only Jordan Crooks has been faster this year at any age, and only by .09! I’m cackling!
This is the same time Tom Shields went in 2016 when he became the first man under 44 seconds in the 100 fly.

Gretchen Walsh 55.1??? Hosszu's record two months ago was 56.5. So 1.4 seconds off a 100m World Record in less than two months? And a second World Record in 30 minutes?
That's crazy talk.

Americans win the 100, Canadians win the 2 fly and Chinese win the 100 breast, which is really helping keep this shared podium thing chill.
Imagine if like...Russia and Ukraine had to share a podium step.

The top 4 in the men's 100 free at SC Worlds are all NCAA swimmers. Could this be the podium at the NCAA Championships in March?

Okay, I don't like the flag-planting either, but whichever commissioner said it said it best: Coaches just need to handle this by teaching their athletes to be better. We don't need all kind of rules regulating it, and sure as shit don't need it to be A FRIGGIN' FELONY.
A GOP Ohio lawmaker introduced the O.H.I.O. Sportsmanship Act, which would make it a felony to plant a flag in the center of Ohio Stadium
Lawmaker wants to make flag planting illegal at Ohio Stadium after Michigan fight
The move comes after a fight broke out between Ohio State University and Michigan players after the Wolverines tried to plant a flag on OSU's field.
