Nebraska Going Big for Conference Debut

Nebraska is known for hav­ing some of the best fans in col­lege foot­ball. When the Huskers travel to Wis­con­sin for their first Big Ten road game tomor­row, their fan base is expected to be out in full force. Even if it means hav­ing to watch the game from a local bar. Wis­con­sin ath­letic direc­tor Barry Alvarez, who played at Nebraska, said he expects as many as 30,000 Big Red faith­ful to show up, almost all of which prob­a­bly won’t even get inside Camp Ran­dall Sta­dium to see the game. Big Ten rules allot vis­it­ing teams 3,000 tick­ets for road games; Nebraska... 

Goodell: Pryor Manipulated Eligibility Rules; Suspension Upheld

Ter­relle Pryor’s five-game sus­pen­sion was upheld by NFL Com­mis­sioner Roger Good­ell on Friday. The Oak­land Raiders rookie quar­ter­back had appealed the pun­ish­ment, which was related to NCAA vio­la­tions he com­mit­ted while at Ohio State. Pryor entered the NFL sup­ple­men­tal draft instead of serv­ing a five-game ban with the Buck­eyes after being involved in a cash-for-memorabilia scan­dal that has put Ohio State under NCAA investigation. “This smacks of a cal­cu­lated effort to manip­u­late our eli­gi­bil­ity rules in a way that under­mines the integrity...

Eric Boul­lier has been cau­tious in his response to jour­nal­ists at recent races, say­ing that the team can­not wait too long for a response on who next... 

Report: Owners Move Off Demand for Hard Salary Cap, Sort Of

For the NBA play­ers union, the idea of a team-by-team hard salary cap — as is seen in the NFL and NHL — was a “blood issue.” They saw it as a way own­ers were try­ing to keep down salaries and force more non-guaranteed con­tracts. Some own­ers were insis­tent on a hard cap, and that has report­edly stalled out past negotiations. But with the 11th hour to save the start of the sea­son approach­ing, the own­ers report­edly have moved off their hard cap demand. Well, technically. Adrian Woj­narowski at Yahoo Sports broke the story (which has since been con­firmed by others). The...

Steve Staios headed to Long Island in train­ing camp on a try­out basis to prove that he can still swing it in the NHL after years in Edmon­ton and Cal­gary.

TSN’s Dar­ren Dreger reports that Staios’ con­tract with the Isles is worth $ 800,000 with bonuses that could make it worth up to $ 1.2 mil­lion.
