College Football: Dime Package for Championship Weekend
Some thoughts on Championship weekend. It was a wild weekend mired in controversy. 1.The committee got it wrong! Alabama has no business being in the final four! I don’t care that they only have one loss. They played no one! Ohio State deserved to get in over them. They won their conference and they had several quality wins (Michigan State, Penn State, Michigan and Wisconsin). Don’t give me the Iowa…

NFL: Dime Package for Week 13
Some thoughts on the week that was in the NFL. 1.Rob Gronkowski‘s belly flop on Tre’Davious White warranted a fine but not a suspension. That was an over the top reaction by the NFL.
