Day 709

• The NFL has named a former head of the SEC to look into the Dan Snyder claims. ... more to see if they can get away with keeping him as owner of the Commanders.   
• The NFL will not, at present, look into Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.  ... because to do so would admit that abuse was their only real purpose.  
• MLB has officially delayed the first spring training games until March 4th, and they will try to meet next week to see if there's a prayer of a new agreement.  BEYOND no chance in Hell of that.  They basically are, right now, at death's door for the start of the regular season on time.   
• One of the new owners of the Venetian in Las Vegas MAY have ties to Jeffrey Epstein.  I'll just let that marinate in your minds.   
• The CFP has formally rejected any current plans for expansion.  Why? There's no point.  You can't have a 6-8-12 team tournament when you can't have more than maybe two relevant college football games a season -- the SEC Championship in December, and that winner playing somebody (sometimes the team they defeated a month before) for the CFP title.   
• Fuck Vince McMahon.  Double-fuck him going to Saudi Arabia this weekend.  But there's one good thing which might happen with WWE this year at WrestleMania.  The Undertaker, about five years overdue, is going to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.  To give you an idea how overdue, the most respected non-Vince wrestling Hall of Fame, Dave Meltzer's Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame, inducted Undertaker...  in 2004!
• Major gas pipeline in the Ukraine blown to bits.  Biden says it's evidence Putin is going to invade.
