Reposting this here for anyone that hasn't had a chance (or chosen not) to read the full report from the AG regarding the Penn State/Sandusky child sex abuse scandal. I don't think people are fully grasping the gravity and atrociousness of this scandal. This could be the worst scandal in the history of college sports. There will be books and movies made about this Anyways, I am just disgusted to no end by this, and I hope all involved are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, including those who knew about this and failed to do anything (including you JoePa). I've met JoePa in person before, and this just absolutely blows my mind. I hope the judge throws the book at all involved.

Looks like Cheat Code will be taking up residence as GQ's resident NFL blogger this season. The previous editions of this have been fairly entertaining and usually include a post from the player every other week or so. Should be a good look inside J-Mac's world, and definitely gets his (and Mizzou's) name out there. [Bumped to Front Page.]

"Sean Weatherspoon, Linebacker, Atlanta Falcons They're the top seed in the NFC, but even ardent fans of the game can't name any Falcons other than Matt Ryan and Roddy White. (Most of 'em forget they still have Tony Gonzalez.) Which is odd, because Atlanta used to be home to a slew of outsized personalities, led by Michael Vick. This Falcons team, though, is as vanilla a team as you'll find. That is, of course, except for their affable young rookie linebacker, Sean Weatherspoon. He's had an injury-plagued rookie season and was banged up in Week 17 versus Carolina, but should be good to go for the Falcons Divisional Round game next weekend. This fella is always talking, always moving, always in the mix. Don't be shocked if he's the guy who steals the show on Super Bowl Media Day, and then steals the big game a few days later. "

Let's hope 'Boobie' Denmon can be to Mizzou basketball what Boobie Miles was to the Permian Panthers (well, minus the blown knee and everything).

Pretty good overview of everything that has one down so far. Should be interesting to see what the "internal investigation" yields. (my guess: nothing). This should give the Anlers some good material for morninstar at the very least.

FWIW, Matt Hinton's preview of Mizzou 2010 football season. [Bumped to front page.]
