ESPN - You have officially lost me
Apparently I'm going to sound like some bitter old man by writing this post, but sadly at 40 years old I guess that is the role I'm about to play. ESPN - Really? Remember when espn was about showing sports and sports highlights? Well, I do. Now it's all shows of professional arguing and condemnation when anyone in sports does anything that is viewed as "wrong." And I don't mean the wrong as in a pro athlete commits a crime or hits a woman. I mean stuff that isn't wrong but you get burned at the stake for. Latest example - Jimbo Fisher. I'm not even much of a fan of college football, but Fisher who coaches Texas A&M grabbed a player by the face mask to tell him something and get his point across after the player did something questionable. When I say grabbed his face mask....I'm not talking he yanked it, whipped the kids head around or any of that. He grabbed it straight on as he and the player walked up to each other and pulled him a closer to get his point across. The talking heads on espn unanimously flamed him for being completely in the wrong and how that should never happen, yada yada. Are you kidding me? What the hell happened to sports in the U.S. I'm tired of the media dictating what is right or wrong and how things should be done.

10 SCR CONTEST-1 DAY LEFT TO ENTER
My NCAA football 7-11 challenge is looking like it could go down to the final 2. Final 2 days, final 2 contestants. That's because there are ONLY 2 SIGNED UP. I probably put it out too early. I take the blame for that. I had just started on scorum and I didn't have the 10 SCR for the prize. BUT I DO NOW. There is 2 days left before this post pays out, so you can still enter. The original post explains the rules, here: https://scorum.com/en-us/amfootball/@kryptokeeper/the-ncaa-football-7-11-challenge-1. You don't have to know much about american football to win. Just pick a number between 0 and 11, put that number in a reply to EITHER THIS POST OR THE ORIGINAL POST. Also, in case of a tie, put total number of points combined for the Eastern Illinois vs Arkansas game on 1 Sep 2018. That's all there is to it. Since only bamamama and myself have entered, I have a good chance to keep my SCR. Although, come to think of it, when was the last time Arkansas beat Alabama? Maybe I don't have such a good chance after all. Anyway, so what-the-hell am I doing huh? If I wanted to win my own SCR, I wouldn't have made a contest. Now come on and enter. Won't take but a minute.
