A Tri-Delt is a Tri-Delt, no matter what campus

I’m burned out on the Sampson/IU thing, so here’s some light reading which I found on Deadspin earlier tonight:

Brent Musberger, in the waning moments of Oklahoma’s 38-17 win over Missouri in the Big 12 title game, mocking the perfectly coifed Kirk Herbstreit:

“You told me West Virginia beating Pittsburgh was a sure thing. Next thing you’ll tell me is Les Miles will be the next coach of Michigan”.
OOH! Take that, buckeye breath! (If [...]

Welcome to the club Cato June!  June was arrested near Raymond James Stadium after the arresting officer “detected an odor of alcohol” on June’s breath.  June also allegedly “exhibited other clues of impairment.”  This is not June’s first brush with the law.

Hurting the ones we love - College Football update

Some games from today, and the various implications involved therein:
