Tailgating Policy, Part I
SFN will have a lot more to say on this quickly boiling topic later. For now, I will direct you to this excellent, thorough piece from our blogging friends at RAWFS. In short, I think this is the worst kind of administrative nonsense – a solution in search of a problem. I’ve been going to […]
Collegetowns & The Grumble Test

Koren’s Problems Aren’t Alone
Very sad. (Link) Minnesota Vikings receiver Koren Robinson was in jail Wednesday on suspicion of drunken driving, a newspaper reported. Sgt. Loren Jansen of the St. Peter Police Department told the St. Paul Pioneer Press that Robinson was arrested around 10:46 p.m. Tuesday for “driving while impaired.” At least Koren isn’t alone on the police […]

Mario in Spotlight; Rivers Era Begins (Updated 8/13; 10am)

Regardless, we couldn’t ignore this great piece in the Houston Chronicle today. On the practice fields of Reliant Park, Texans rookie […]
