With March Madness around the corner, I wanted to shine a light on one of the places that makes college basketball special: Rose Hill Gym. Fordham men's basketball has stunk for 30 years but Rose Hill should be a bucket list destination for any college hoops fan. www.si.com/college-bask...

College Basketball’s Overlooked Gem Turns 100

Fordham’s Rose Hill Gym is the oldest on-campus arena in Division I basketball, hosting Army barracks, concerts and legendary athletes in its storied history.

Mizzou is for real. Hardy is an incredible back and that defense can be ferocious. But Ty Simpson is so good. This fourth-down throw late in the fourth was flawless.

Bobby Football @robpaul.bsky.social · 1d

Just absolutely absurd ball placement from Ty Simpson on fourth down. Might be the best throw of his Alabama career

Trevor Lawrence says he panicked when he fell before getting up to score game-winning TD

"I was just gonna throw it out of bounds to stop the clock, but there was really no one around me so I made a play," Lawrence said.

Cam Schlittler is the only pitcher in MLB postseason history with 8+ scoreless innings, 12+ strikeouts and no walks.

The only other pitcher with 8+ IP, 12+ K’s and no walks in a playoff game was Tom Seaver in Game 1 of the 1973 NLCS, per @stathead.com. (Seaver took the complete-game loss.)

Cam Schlittler was throwing 90 in A-ball two years ago. He had a 5.21 ERA in 5 games. Look at him now.

It's not a surprise why pitchers prize velocity so heavily, or why it's so much harder to hit when they do.

I went to the Yankee game on Saturday when Schlittler pitched last and the standing ovation when he left (after 7 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 9 K, 1 BB) was me and like four old guys. Glad they’re on their feet for him now.

Connelly Early is an IRA-ass name. That guy was on a hunger strike with Bobby Sands.

Crypto billionaire Brock Pierce, speaking at Fraunces Tavern in downtown Manhattan alongside Rev. Al Cockfield, says he's launching the "draft Eric back campaign" to try to get Eric Adams back in the mayoral race.

Joe Davis just said Croke Park has hosted “mostly *soccer* and Gaelic football.” Borderline sacrilege! www.si.com/nfl/steelers...

There’s No Better International Venue for the Steelers Than Croke Park

When Pittsburgh faces the Vikings in the NFL’s first regular-season game in Ireland, it’ll do so in a historic venue that the Rooney family helped renovate.

Cool story from @dangartland.bsky.social on the stadium in Ireland that’ll host Steelers-Vikings on Sunday, and his family connection to it. I learned a lot from this one.

Dan Gartland @dangartland.bsky.social · 18d

Easily my favorite story I've ever written. On Croke Park in Dublin, its place in Irish culture and history, the wonderful sport of hurling—and oh yeah, the NFL being played there this weekend. www.si.com/nfl/steelers...

The video for this story also turned out incredibly well. Really proud of how this series has turned out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XesP...
