If you listen very closely, Amanda, because it took place in Austria and not Switzerland, you may hear The Sound Of Music.
Great work, Ira.
ICYMI: USC spent seven weeks looking enough like a CFP contender. Wisconsin needed one night to make the Trojans look like CFP pretenders.
Lincoln Riley mustered the fewest points of his head coaching career. And -17 rushing yards.
Five years in, what’s to show? nytimes.com/athletic/7721637…
Keep up the outstanding work, Julia!!
Dave Roberts has been the Dodgers manager for 11 seasons and his teams reached the World Series five times and have won three.
That's an incredible run!!
Good luck with your latest book, Seth.
Excited to announce I am writing a book for @HarperCollins called Lock In. It’s about sports and mental fitness. And Buddhism! Inviting all of you to take this journey with me. What do you want to know? #LockIn
Today, October 9 is John Lennon's birthday.
He would have been 86 and though not here, his music will live forever.
I'm pulling for DJ Jones to get better real soon, Ira.
Great reporting on your part and well written.
Incredibly gut-wrenching news out of Missouri: Freshman DJ Jones has been placed on a heart transplant list and remains hospitalized at Mayo Clinic.
"It’s just hard," Eli Drinkwitz said. "18-year-old with everything in front of him."

It can be said and with no reservations, Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali, were involved in the two greatest fights in boxing history.
Ebbets Field will always be a baseball palace and the former home to the Brooklyn Dodgers.
One more Brooklyn bow for the Boys in Blue.
On this date in 1957, the Dodgers played their final game at Ebbets Field and went out with a 2-0 win. ow.ly/2Ah750ZR4E8

You are doing an outstanding job, Joe, of covering the Miami Dolphins.
Your readers are fortunate that you're there, my friend.
I watched Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers, who are quite good.
This is my 13th season covering the Miami Dolphins (11th consecutive). I'm reminded how lucky I am to do the only job I've ever truly wanted - football reporting. Thank you to everyone who follows my work and supports journalism. Local news matters and I'm grateful every day for readers who value reporting, accountability and storytelling.
Happy birthday to the NFL!!
Where it all began: On September 17, 1920, football pioneers gathered in Ralph Hay’s Hupmobile showroom in Canton, Ohio, to form the American Professional Football Association, the organization that would become the NFL. This meeting laid the foundation for what would grow into America’s most popular sport. Happy Birthday to the @NFL, and here's to celebrating the visionaries who changed the game forever. profootballhof.me/4dlNC90
Congratulations to you, Ira!!
