Mouring the loss of the doorstop

Posted by JoeM

Both Michigan and Ohio State said today that they will stop printing their media guides for all sports. Instead, all information will be online in pdf format, which many schools already do in addition to the print version.
I’m sure there are many economical and environmental reasons to stop printing hundreds of pages of (sometimes useless) [...]

Is an athletic scholarship the same as payment?

Posted by JoeM

Like most males under the age of 35, I enjoy playing video games. And I tend to get hooked on them. When my roommate and I first got Guitar Hero II, I played so much that I lost feeling in my left middle finger. True story.
I also was temporarily addicted to NCAA Football 2007. I [...]

Paulus heading home after college … to play for SU

Posted by JoeM

For some, leaving college is just hard. Matt Leinart said as much when he decided to stay for a fifth season at USC. Personally, I spent about three weeks moping about not being a college student anymore, and it took about a year to stop longing for those days.

Posted by JoeM

What is going on with all the interest in Greg Paulus?
I doubt there are many NBA teams looking into a point guard who was benched during his senior season, even if said point guard played at Duke.

Since I already mentioned it

Posted by JoeM

Overall, the food was good. Mashed potatoes were excellent and the salad was, well, a salad. There was some New England clam chowder, but I stayed clear of that.
And then there was the roasted chicken. The skin appeared to have a little bit of seasoning on it, but the piece I grabbed had little skin, [...]

On the road

Posted by JoeM

Down here in Boston with a little under two hours to go until Pitt and Xavier start the first of two semifinal games here tonight. The doors don’t open to the paying public for about another half hour, but the media room has been open since 3 p.m.
It’s starting to fill up now and I can tell [...]

Don’t drink the water

Posted by JoeM

This is why you always read the label.
On Jan. 15, the NCAA released a note to all schools warning them about certain flavors of Vitamin Water and the possibility that some of them could cause a positive drug test. This article from the Brown Daily Herald does a nice job explaining which flavors and why. [...]

Here’s something you don’t see every day

Posted by JoeM

A series of college hockey games between St. Cloud (Minn.) State and host University of Alaska-Anchorage scheduled for this weekend are likely to be canceled due to … an erupting volcano?
Yep. Mount Redoubt, in the southern part of the state, is becoming more and more active and could erupt very soon. And if that happens, it [...]
