I think they will dip but be back. NIL and transfer portal will kill them this year but will also help them build again. There are a lot of Mark Gronowski's out there looking for their chance to prove they can do it at the next level.

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.”

Today, at a time of unprecedented income & wealth inequality, his words ring truer than ever.

Nike Founder Phil Knight Announces Record-Breaking Political Donation Nike founder Phil Knight is known for being heavily involved in Oregon athletics. The billionaire sports brand founder has given a ton of money to Oregon football, track, basketball and other sports. ...

I already stopped buying Nike products for the way they treat/treated many of their female athletes, but this just reaffirms that decision.

I think it’s primarily a function of exposure caused by their success but the ability to play close to home a few times a year can hurt. Whatever the reason I like it.

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

It’s interesting that our reaction to learning who Kirk’s shooter is and that most of the speculation about who he would be is wrong, we decide to continue to speculate.

She is in a very difficult position and the only person who can save her is Kirk. My hope is that he gets the wins record and announces his retirement so the fans can give him the positive sendoff he deserves. My fear is he gets the record and sees it as affirmation that he knows best and stays.

Kirk Ferentz is the GOAT of #Hawkeye Football coaches but even GOATs diminish their legacy when they hang on too long. He is about 3 years past when he should have hung it up.
