Kenny Payne did not get his fifth win of the year last night. Kentucky is seven days away. Also! Big Ben’s Steelers lament, Joe Kelly’s Hall of Fame thought, and is getting suspended a backdoor to load management?
Joe’s Notes: Hope for Chicago State
Chicago State has a path to relevance, and all it took was one big win. Also: The redshirt/restraining order mess, Ohtani’s opt-out, Hoskins vs. Bellinger, and some miscellany.
Today’s Best Bets: Wednesday, December 13th
We’re trying something stupid; and we caught an FCS break.
Joe’s Notes: The Alexandria Wizards
A proposal to keep teams from fleeing to the suburbs. Also: the FSU “lawsuit,” the transfer lawsuit, and the Dodgers’ Sisyphean pursuit of triumph.
Stu’s Notes: Sean Stellato’s Existence, and What It Implies About Taylor Swift
The NFL might be rigged. Also: Heinous act draws NBA ejection, Draymond struck a man, Juwan Howard might’ve been set up, and Louisville is being Louisville.
Today’s Best Bets: Tuesday, December 12th
From Cedar Falls to Frisco.
Stu’s Notes: Great Athletes Who’ve Worn Number 99

Today’s Best Bets: Monday, December 11th
Monday Night Football, finding some college basketball, and a first crack at the latest FCS markets.
Stu’s Notes: Michigan, Michigan State, Scandal, and the NIT
“He can hit.” Also: Andy Enfield & LeBron James; Adam Silver & Lebron James; whether Zion needs Moriah Mills; Joe Kelly’s new number; and the Ottawa Senators.
