Confessions of a Polluted Mindset - No Laundering Needed
My source inside the Vikings organization tell me the Vikings saved some money this week by not needing to have Sam Darnold's jersey laundered. Look, I watched a lot of Sam Darnold when he played for the Jets. I liked him coming out of college and would always tell my Giants fans friends that he would be a better quarterback than Daniel Jones. He has a strong and accurate arm when he can comfortably step into throws, When he's under pressure is when it all falls apart and the interceptions and...

2024 Corvallis Regional Set
Kevin Neri/Statesman Journal / USA TODAY NETWORK The Oregon State Baseball team got off to a slow start at the Pac-12 tournament, dropping the opener to freshman Joey Volchko and a Stanford club that got hot in pool play. That was enough to put the Beavers on the back foot of tiebreaker math and led to an early flight back to Corvallis. Fortunately, the regular season resume was enough for OSU to earn the #15 overall national seed in the tournament that truly matters, and the Beavers wi...
