What should the NHL do with replay? Take the NFL's tact of reviewing every scoring play. Can still challenge for offsides and goalie interference but let's make sure that we don't have what happened with San Jose in Game 3. Penalties are a bit trickier because those are judgment calls a lot of time...

Hockey players are big time golfers, of course. You see any NHL guys pallin' around at these things...? Have you ever met, and subsequently fought, Ernie Els' crazy ass...? It depends on the time of year. I've seen a few Blackhawks playing in pro-ams when the BMW goes to Chicago. Phoenix would be a...

If you weren't in TV, what do you think you'd be doing? Is John Beilein an idiot? How can we fix college basketball bag men? If I weren't in TV, I think I'd be working for a college athletic department somewhere. Though, one of the things I had wanted to do and still have an interest in doing is co...

What are your thoughts on Ben Crane? Personally, great guy. As mentioned above, I was there when they filmed their Golf Boys video years ago and he had me over to his house and was a great host and he and I still chat a bit whenever I'm at an event that he's playing. But on the course, he's a rough...

Did Joe know? Ooooooh, loaded question time. I truly think he only knew whatever McQueary told him. It was known that he and Sandusky weren't on the best of terms near the end of Jerry's tenure but being the close-knit community that SC was in the 70's/early 80's, if he knew something was going on,...

How did you get into the golf world, generally speaking, and specifically what you do in it? I started in sports TV at ESPN when I first got out of college.

I’ve seen others do it and thought it might be fun to try so fire away. Yes, it is early - took the gf to the airport - so you early risers/workers can put some in the queue and I’ll get to them when I wake back up.

Brooks put the excitement back into the routine fly ball and got some timely bogeys by DJ on 16 and 17 to survive the mess at Bethpage.

He admitted on Feherty’s show that he is inconsistent with his prep work outside of majors. He doesn’t practice as much, he does stuff away from the course during tournament week, his team isn’t ‘consistent’. But for majors, he prepares differently by playing the week or two before, honing his pract...

Spieth and DJ both rocketing into contention this morning. Simply put, today is going to come down to whether or not Koepka decides to leave the rest of the field behind. If he shoots even par or worse, this leaderboard will get very interesting. Thru 3 holes today, he’s treating the field like Nol...
