Home opener from Morrone being played before a friends and family crowd.

His social media claims a 4.45.

I turned it on expecting to see a game from Detroit. Who knew that FC Motown is a USL Two team from Newark? Athletic only played about 20% of its regular lineup.

CT United FC, which is 2-1 in MLSNP, finally announced locations for some of its home games. As some speculated, they will play their opener on April 11th at Morrone Stadium. They will also play their next two home games in Storrs. Five summer games are scheduled for Yale's Reese Stadium...

He's from Middletown, NJ, not Delaware. He was apparently on his way to IMG Academy for a PG year, which is why he visited for Junior Day in February. Either he's a late qualifier or the coaches took another look and decided to get him now before he could take that 4.47 on a test drive in...

No. They have signed a full roster of players and coaches (with UConn alum Shavar Thomas as HC) and based on online videos appear to be having scrimmages with other minor league (allegedly including a scheduled scrimmage with Athletic) and college squads. They are scheduled to play their first...

Only saw the end of the game. After Fagnano was sacked in the end zone and fumbled for a defensive touchdown I was cringing. Then he led a surgical drive down the field with a lot of it being on the ground but he also completed passes in critical situations. He may well have gotten himself...

"Fully invested in football" implies that there is a saturation point where all meaningful investments have been made and money can be safely allocated elsewhere. I see no evidence that exists. Football programs can and will always spend everything they can get. Behind the scenes I'm sure...

Not that anything is expected in this annual free agent portal era, but does he have two or three years of eligibility? Toledo listed him as a RS Sophomore but his bio says that he only played in 3 games in 2024 at West Virginia, retaining his freshman eligibility.

This is a complete over-reaction. I've been to a half-dozen major league ballparks, several NHL teams and other locations that use this method. It has worked every time. More important than my limited sample size, those teams combine to sell more than 10 million tickets per year. If it...

It should. It cost more than $1B about 15 years ago (probably closer to $1.5B in today’s $$).

Kind of hard to be taken seriously climbing on a high horse to justify hatred of a league when you are willing to join them when it is convenient for you. Hockey is obviously not even remotely as important as football, but ND still has made a major investment in it (ask the Compton family) and...

Well, except for men's hockey.

This is correct. That’s why you’ll see that the vast majority of academy portal entrants are sophomores.

If anyone wants to see the BC-SU game (and that's a real question) there are tickets available for $4 on Stubhub.
