How to form a Monopoly 101 1. Pay $7.1 billion for SEC media rights 2. Pay $1.7 billion for CFP media rights 3. Use your sports broadcasting network to push talking points to sway general public 4. Air the *only* college football selection show 5. The totally unbiased committee that you pay $1.7 billion coincidentally ranks every team with a winning record in the conference that you pay Rinse and repeat

My 1st boss. My 1st "real job" driving him around DC, chasing him down hallways, waiting outside the west wing. He dedicated his life to helping the poor of my home state of WV & our nation. With staggering generational wealth, he didn't have to. A lesson for today's billionaires
John D. “Jay” Rockefeller IV, an heir to a vast oil fortune and a liberal Democrat who entered politics in his adopted home state of West Virginia, serving as governor and a five-term U.S. senator, died Friday. He was 89. wapo.st/4ABt3Pl

Fifth - As governor, Gina Hinojosa, a Democrat, will have the power to replace university board members across the state. One of the seats that will become open in January: the one held by Texas Tech's Cody Campbell. frontofficesports.com/articl…

West Virginia is #1 on our Hall of Fame board: 17 NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL Hall of Famers from a state of 1.8 million people. Pennsylvania has 103. Alaska, Maine, Nevada and Wyoming have none. Where does your state land?

Over four decades ago, our newspaper got a behind-the-scenes look at the finishing touches of what is now Milan Puskar Stadium in 1980 with a vibrant first-year coach Don Nehlen. Check out these photos! #WVU

The 24 team CFB Playoff reinforces one thing: I'm glad I retired in '25. I'm sure the television entity behind this decision and the gambling community will be thrilled with the latest news. CFB has morphed into a chaotic, lawless version of the NFL. Enjoy at your own risk.

Seeing some tweets arguing about whether the new press secretary can rightfully be called a lawyer or an attorney absent admission to the bar. I've always taken the position such individuals should enjoy an alternate designation, such as, e.g., "lawster"

The rumor I always heard was Duke and UNC. But UVA being another academic snob school makes sense.

Been training to do this since he was 5yrs old. The game means everything to him.....
One thing that makes Michael Hawkins Jr. so special is his ability to shift direction w/o losing speed. That might be the single most impressive thing he can do. That turns a 5 yard run into a house call!

Dear State of Virginia. I present to you Bill Danoff, Co-Writer of "Take Me Home, Country Roads". ..."you know, it's about WEST VIRGINIA. It's a small place. Maybe it will be a small hit. Maybe it will be a hit in WEST VIRGINIA." I rest my case. Also, suck it.

One of the most impressive things I seen from going to the WVU scrimmage yesterday was Coach Tricket and the physicality from the Offensive Line. Really impressive group. Top to bottom with a phenomenal coach!!!!!!!
