    Jess Settles...

    I like it when they are silent after a big play. Just hear the crowd for few seconds. Then they chime in. Something that Tony Romo needs to learn.

    Liberty Bowl postgame thread

    The faking taking a knee before half was a bush league play. I think it should be banned. It is similiar to faking a slide by a runner. It happened few years ago in ACC title game. The runner faked a slide and kept on running. The NCAA banned it a few weeks later. If the defensive lineman...

    HS BB & SB

    Varsity contests both softball and baseball. Umpire will work behind the plate. We won't have the balls. They will be kept by the defensive team. Players can't go to there mouth or the ball is dead and then it is thrown out to be sanitized. I do both sports and it will be interesting for sure.
