College football wants to shorten games but passes on most obvious fix.
1. My colleague, Ross Dellenger, broke the news Monday that college football is considering rules changes to shorten the length of games.
I was shocked to read in Dellenger’s column that the average length of a college football game last season was 3 hours and 21 minutes. That’s up from 3 hours and 16 minutes in 2018. I would’ve guessed the average length was at least 3 hours and 45 minutes.

Beverley has chosen to come back home. So what does this mean for the Chicago Bulls’ season?
At 26-33 – a record that currently has them two games out of play-in contention – the Chicago Bulls have been one of the NBA’s biggest disappointments as the No. 11 seed in the Eastern Conference. After a 2021-22 campaign that saw the team go 46-36, finishing sixth in the East and securing their first playoff berth since 2017, many presumed the team would take another step forward this season.

Nick Saban is the greatest college football coach of all-time. The 71-year-old has won the most national championships of anybody to grace the sport, 11 conference titles between the SEC and the MAC, and has won 210 more games than he has lost.
Saban’s excellence cannot be understated, but credit should also be given to his assistant coaches. Alabama, each and every year, assembles one of the top staffs in the nation. Those coaches often move on to other opportunities, by nature of the success in Tuscaloosa, but their roles with the program are crucial to the entire picture.
The All-Pro wide receiver bluntly tells Philadelphia to pay his quarterback.
The Eagles put together one of the best seasons in the franchise’s history this season and after coming up short of a Super Bowl win, they’re tasked with trying to keep the band together. There are several question marks going into the offseason for Philadelphia, but the priority for the team should be signing quarterback Jalen Hurts to a long-term extension, according to one of his teammates.
Boston broke its 106-year-old franchise wins record and won the World Series that year.
Five years have now lapsed since the Red Sox’s controversial 2018 World Series title. Most of the key contributors from that team have scattered throughout the major leagues, including Dodgers outfielder (and ’18 AL MVP) Mookie Betts.
Even manager Alex Cora, seemingly disgraced as a result of the sign-stealing scandal, has returned from exile to pilot Boston the past two seasons.
