Get ready, because it's college football season! Here's what you need to know ahead of kickoff, plus news and notes about Serena's catsuit and the latest on Urban Meyer.
229 Days
It’s been 229 days since a college football game was played. Saturday’s five-game lineup isn’t juice but it’s still football. Predictions for first head coach fired, freshmen who could contend for Heisman and which top teams could lose in Week 1, and D.J. Durkin is in more trouble thanks to new revelations in a sexual assault case
"Respect the Game"
French Tennis Federation president Bernard Giudicelli is an idiot for saying that Serena Williams’s attire is inappropriate and she’ll be banned from the French Open. Giudicelli should "respect the game" by removing himself from it.
Urban is sorry
Two full days after a bizarre press conference, Urban Meyer apologized to Courtney Smith and her children. The statement appears to show that despite memory issues, he does indeed remember the press conference. Also, former Ohio State quarterback Kirk Herbstreit discussed the Buckeyes’ report, calling it a "head scratcher."
Angela Martin is very interested
A company in Minneapolis is offering "fur-ternity leave" for new pet adopters.
Faces in the crowd are priceless
Immediately after the bell in a Premier Boxing Champions event on Friday night, Curtis Harper walked out of the ring.
