Baker Mayfield is a Panther.
Don't know how to feel, but I do know the media is going to be insufferable either way.

Re: Off Topic VIII
One thing working in our favor is that it would be a very Cleveland Browns outcome for them to trade a king's ransom for star QB who gets suspended for years, then go on to watch the starter they traded away win the Super Bowl and do commercials about it for eternity.

This makes sense for football, but I absolutely hate it for basketball. The ACC is such a great basketball conference and it's going to be destroyed by realignment.

Re: Off Topic VIII
I don't really care about college sports either, but the ACC is big for NC (the state, not the university). The championship game and HQ are based here. NC is pretty much the capital of the conference, between UNC/Duke/NC State being here and Clemson and Virginia being close by.

Re: Off Topic VIII
College sports were ruined by money a long time ago. They're circling the drain at this point.
Why not just follow sport leagues where at least there's no idiotic pretense that it isn't all about the money? I'm allergic to BS, so I have little desire to humor that nonsense.

Re: Off Topic VIII
Andy Roddick's at the US Open and the broadcast has shown him a few times...rocking a Hornets hat
I listened to a podcast that had Gordon Hayward on as a guest a few weeks back and he was talking about being at Wimbledon rooting his buddy John Isner on...maybe he's friends with Roddick as well.
