People hoping to attend the ACC Tournament can get in for the price of a cold domestic beer.
The ACC Tournament is underway at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., and the ticket prices are outrageously cheap.
Tickets for the early session (Florida State/Virginia Tech and Notre Dame and Wake Forest) and the late session (NC State/Syracuse and Boston College/Clemson) are as cheap as $4 on StubHub as of publication.
That’s comical for a conference that prides itself as being a basketball power.

Michigan–Ohio State remains one of college football’s most heated rivalries.
It isn’t every day that you see someone make the jump directly from the Buckeyes to the Wolverines, but new Michigan coach Sherrone Moore reportedly dipped into Ryan Day’s staff to fill an assistant opening and is expected to hire away running backs coach Tony Alford, ESPN’s Pete Thamel reports. FootballScoop first reported that Alford was Michigan’s target for the job.

In the same month former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce called it quits on a legendary career, Philly nabbed top running back Saquon Barkley in free agency.
That made the newly-retired Kelce feel some type of way, and he shared his honest reaction to the Barkley signing on Wednesday’s episode of New Heights.
The Philadelphia legend told his brother, Travis Kelce, that everyone asked him the same question after the Barkley news broke—namely, whether he was sure he wanted to retire.

Viktor Hovland typically keeps his tone neutral and his comments brief when asked about the state of professional golf and the PGA Tour. But that all changed in December when the Norwegian went on the record to dispel rumors of his departure to LIV Golf and criticize PGA Tour management. At a press conference ahead of the Players Championship, he once again took a firm stance on the matter.
In the wake of Xander Schauffele’s criticism of PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan, Hovland was asked where his confidence levels stand with the Tour’s current leadership. While the No.

For whatever reason more and more pro teams are inviting magicians into their clubhouse and locker rooms during training camp or  spring training.
I don’t know how or why this started… but I am a fan.
A bunch of teams have done it in recent years, including the New York Jets, who played magician’s assistant on last year’s edition of Hard Knocks.

The date was September 30th, 2007.
And for Hall of Fame pitcher Tom Glavine – it brings back haunting memories; ones that New York Mets fans still won’t let him forget. 
The Mets, who were favorites in the National League leading into the playoff race that year, began fading towards the end of the season and found themselves in a must-win season finale against the lowly Florida Marlins. 
The Mets and their salivating fan base could taste the playoffs – they just had to get through that final game. The Mets went with one of their top pitchers in Glavine. Although his 4.

Which NFL teams got better in free agency? Who got worse? Let’s dive in.
When 12:01 p.m. hit on Monday afternoon, the legal tampering window was blasted open and NFL free agency got underway. Teams were wheeling and dealing, spending wild amounts of money through the first two days. NFL Network’s Gregg Rosenthal made a list of the top 101 free agents before the league year started, and this is the state of the list now:

New league year is almost here. Only 5 of my original top 25 free agents and 31 of the top 101 are unaccounted for.

Maybe Jerry Jones has some masterful and stunning surprise that he’ll unveil for everyone when the NFL’s new league year starts at 4 p.m. on Wednesday.
Maybe he’ll show us he spent the past few weeks extending quarterback Dak Prescott’s contract, locking up defensive anchor Micah Parsons for years, and doing the same with WR1 CeeDee Lamb. Maybe the Dallas Cowboys owner, general manager and wonderful money-making mastermind, will do all this work in time for the Cowboys to enter free agency as cowboys should:
With guns ablazin’.

From Princeton offenses, to two-post lineups, to elite individual scorers, there isn’t much the Pac-12 didn’t provide. And that gives teams confidence heading into the NCAA tournament.

College of Charleston coach Pat Kelsey’s son Johnny is an absolute menace.
Every year there are some heroes and villains that rise to the top of the NCAA Tournament field, and it looks like we’ve already found one before the play-in games have even happened.
Enter Johnny Kelsey.
The son of the Cougars head coach was picked up on the broadcast mocking the hell out of Stony Brook players Tuesday night as his dad punched an NCAA Tournament ticket.
His move? Fake crying, which seems appropriate given the fact he appears to be very young.
