Column: NFL combine coverage getting out of hand
By Matt Masterson | Feb. 26, 2013When it comes to overhyped sporting events, nothing takes the cake quite like the NFL scouting combine.

Column: Titles are titles
By Max Sternberg | Feb. 22, 2013I hear it time after time: “College basketball’s regular season is irrelevant” or “Nothing matters until March”. Though I am usually successful in restraining myself from the onslaught of dispute I would like to unleash in response, the assertion continues to bother me. Sure, March Madness is fun, but such fun takes nothing away from the importance of the conference schedule. So please don’t change the tournament, because it is great as it is. As any coach or player would tell you, those advocating for such a change on the grounds that it renders the regular season irrelevant are completely off base.
