My cousin played independent baseball until last season and he’s pushing 30. If he wasn’t my cousin I would share all of the cringey posts about being a “professional baseball player.” He also recently announced his “retirement” on instagram. It has gotten to a point where I feel bad for him because all of my other extended family members rip on him behind his back.
It should be mandatory Ohio State plays one Friday night road game a year in October. This game fucked. Also when we first saw a glimpse of Thanos’s ability running down field as a giant.
I was talking with my wife about which game to attend this year (we usually hit only one). It will be Michigan if I can get tickets. If not, Nebraska or Iowa are the next home options. We may road trip to Penn State this year.
Penn State was a lot more fun and less hostile than I was expecting. Probably helped that it was a noon kick
Chuck'd by 43 days fam ;) EDIT: And--in case you're wondering--no, it was not worth the time looking up that old post of mine. Have a great weekend friends

ALPHA DOG: TAVIEN ST. CLAIR, OHIO STATE COMMIT St. Clair currently ranks as the No. 2 quarterback in the class of 2025 for 247Sports, but Sunday's performance could serve as a launching point in his path to the No. 1 overall spot. We loved the jump St. Clair made between his sophomore and junior seasons, and after watching him go through drill after drill in a rather demanding setting, we're even more excited about his trajectory. From start to finish, St. Clair was the most consistent quarterback of the bunch – and it really wasn't even close. Not only did he punch his ticket to this summer's Elite 11 Finals, but he earned compliment after compliment from the coaches working the camp. The Ohio State commit was accurate to all three levels and made a number of high-level tosses look relatively effortless. He didn't struggle when asked to slide left or right and he looked in complete control of his body when asked to roll or sprint out. What also stood out about St. Clair were his mechanics. He's got a smooth, repeatable stroke and is able to generate plenty of power without needing much of a build up. What was even more encouraging about the throwing sessions is the fact that St. Clair, who has college-ready size, displayed the ability to layer the football. St. Clair is coming off a junior campaign at Bellefontaine (Ohio) in which he completed just over 70 percent of his passes for a school-record 3,083 yards and a school-record 37 touchdowns. He remains rock solid on his pledge to the Buckeyes and is the type of prospect that has a chance to eventually push others in what is already one of college football's deepest quarterbacks rooms.
Wish he would have had any interest at all in coming to Ohio State, but it seems like he never really gave them a look. Sucks.
seems like he was heading there from the get go unfortunately, like maybe they even forced the current Bama kicker out.
Considering Parker was his coach, think Fielding was pretty good last year. St Clair is the perfect recruit, absolute stud that loves Ohio State and will wait his turn. Famous last words
Between the three boys we had 8 lacrosse games, 3 soccer games, a flag football game and baseball practice this weekend.
Looking around at what’s left in the portal, we were pretty lucky to find Simmons in the second portal last year.
Meh. College athletics anymore is strictly a business, especially to the players. Most of them view things through a professional lens. To me, this is no different than someone leaving the Red Sox to go to the Yankees. Fans think it is the person being a traitor, but it's just a business decision for the player.
I agree for most sports. Football is different because you’d literally be signing up to beat the shit out of your old friends. And if you’re good enough to get a Michigan offer, you’re good enough to get offers from other strong programs that allow you to avoid this situation.
