Column: College football keeps its head in the sand and winds up with a silly scandal

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 20:15:33 GMT

Those absurd signs they hold up on the sidelines — displaying everything from emojis to superheroes to Bluto from “Animal House” — show just how far college football is behind the times.Which makes the signal-stealing scandal at Michigan seem downright quaint.And so unnecessary.College football, which rakes in billions and billions of dollars like an insatiable Pac-Man (also coming to a sideline sign near you, we presume), should simply follow the NFL’s longstanding method of sending in plays.If the quarterback and a defensive player on each team had an electronic device in their helmets, we wouldn’t be dealing with this nonsense.The coaches would simply send in their calls through good ol’ technology, which actually dates to the mid-1950s when a pair of Ohio inventors came to innovative Cleveland NFL coach Paul Brown with a radio receiver they had developed. Instead, college football wound up with a thoroughly avoidable mess on its money-grubbing hands as Michigan, the ...

Megan Rapinoe and Ali Krieger wrapping up careers facing each other for NWSL title

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 20:15:33 GMT

The National Women’s Soccer League couldn’t have scripted a better championship game matchup. OL Reign’s Megan Rapinoe and Gotham FC’s Ali Krieger will face off in the final professional match for both of the veteran stars on Saturday night in San Diego.

We’ve played in the biggest games together, played in world championship games together while the president was tweeting at us, so I feel in this moment we’re just happy to be together,” Rapinoe said. “I think we both wish each other so well. We’re so happy and proud of each other.”Rapinoe announced before this summer’s Women’s World Cup that she was stepping away from the game after a career that included two World Cup titles, an Olympic gold medal and an Olympic bronze.At the 2019 World Cup in France, Rapinoe scored six goals, inc...
