    RIP, Eva Marie Saint, 102

    She played a minor role very well in Nothing in Common, starring Tom Hanks and Jackie Gleason., Gleason's last movie. Her characters always displayed a dignity that seemed to be as much her as her acting.

    Steve Jones says it's fixable

    Supposedly very NIL budget in the country has risen the last two years. We would need a relative spending comparison not absolute comparison to be fair to each side

    Don't blame Campbell

    IF we spend as much as anyone else, why did we lose all those top recruits to USC, Notre Dame, and Oregon last year (and this year)? Wait, it must have been all the titles they won in the last few years...uh wait, it must be....IT"S ANOUT THE CASH. Even the BW writers say we are not spending...

    FC/OT: New York Times 100 Best TV Shows of 21st Century.

    I'm happy Justified made the list...I wish Persons of Interest or The Blacklist had as those were two fun and creative watches. (OK they were not as good as the Great British Baking Show,,lol). The omission of 24 is a true national crisis. I wish they would have one more season of...

    College Football Playoff to consider new "Penn State rule": strength of conference schedule

    It's not chicken feed, but 6th or 7th in the Big 10 is "meh". We will likely never outspend Oregon, OSU, Indiana, or USC, and like it or not, that puts us at a relative disadvantage.

    College Football Playoff to consider new "Penn State rule": strength of conference schedule

    Penn State would benefit more than others if the playoff was expanded to 24 teams, particularly if the PSU NIL spend continues to be "meh". Schools like Iowa would as well. Given how many teams are in the Big 10, it will be tough to be in the top 4 year after year unless massive NIL $ are...

    Fc Ernie Accorsi died. Great Gm

    Ernie also was very good friends with Unitas. He wrote the questions used in Diner for the Colts quiz...for the younger folks reading this, you may want to check out that very good movie....particularly the popcorn eating scene in the movie.

    I'm flipping

    Grunk makes throws as a redshirt sophomore in his 11th (?) start that are extremely good. He can lead a running back on a flat throw as good as anyone in college today. Vegas has not caught on to how good his overall game is at this point, and Va Tech bets have been lock city. We needed Rocco...

    Roadtrip. Which game is most fun?

    Are the Miss State folks allowed to bring their cowbells to that game..if so, stay away. Of course, that brings to mind the Saturday Night cowbell skit, which is an all-timer.

    Ok. I guess it could be done maybe. But is there a better live album?

    When I saw this headline, I was thinking that after reading the thread, my reply will have to be "no, it's live at the Fillmore East". Thank you my brother for having such great musical taste. And why Lord, did you have to take Duane at such a young age? Can you imagine what heights this...

    OT: TMB Movie Club - Use this thread for feature films in theaters or streaming....

    I have been watching Lucky on Apple. 5 episodes in --what an enjoyable watch. Good acting, good action, fast moving. I recommend it--you will spin thru the episodes and enjoy the ride.

    Revive old question. With USC/ND rivalry returning

    I do not agree with scheduling a "50-50" win-loss non conference opponent and here is why: The typical Big 10 schedule will have us playing four or more 50-50 games in a typical year (2026 schedule is not typical). Plus our recruiting talent does not match up with the 3-5 top Big 10 teams on a...

    OSU to earn $17M from JPMorgan sponsorship that includes jersey patches

    Based on that list two sum out: US Steel and Hershey. National brands based in PA. Of course, if it was Hershey, and PSU blew a lead, the conclusion would be "they melted". US Steel on a lineman--that works
