Why I love college sports
Let me do something that almost every sports article does and start with a Joan Didion quote – “it’s easy to see the beginning of things and harder to see the ends.” This is a good life quote, but luckily it doesn’t describe college sports. Despite Diego Pavia’s best efforts, eligibility has defined the career […]

Northwestern hates fun, CU won’t play in Ryan Field
I was so excited. I was working on my accent. My mustache. My cured meat tolerance. I was reading Devil in the White City. I was going to pretend to care about baseball again.

After getting so tantalizingly close to upsetting the 17th-ranked Kansas Jayhawks for the first Q1 win of the season, fate had other plans for the Colorado Buffaloes.
