I am curious what would be the Story IF Putin does not invade in the next week.  I'm sure it will be something about how the sanctions threats worked etc.  In reality, I'm not sure how we could be so certain he's about to invade, even if troops are moving towards jump off positions.  Obviously, I hope he doesn't, and still think he won't.

But that is more guess than judgment.  

I expect another round of negotiations shortly.  Putin may agree to hold talks somewhere.  Maybe he's all in with a pair of 3s.  How much of a concession would the West grant to forestall an invasion (or pretext of one)????

Lack of leadership again stings college football as divided interests squash playoff expansion (cbssports.com)


this article says 4 administrators were givin the assignment to come up with a plan for playoff expansion

administrators for what and who chose them

I reread several times and just couldnt figure out who these folks are

Today is one of those days that has evolved into me sleeping deep into the morning. I think that’s good, right?

I thought I'd sleep late when I retired, I hated getting up to go to work.  It wasn't the getting up part apparently.  I awoke today at 6:17 AM, fully rested.

Coffee is good.

I reread several times and just couldnt figure out who these folks are
The CFP is set to remain a four-team format through the 2025 season after the administrators who manage the postseason failed to agree on a plan to expand before the current contracts run out.

What started with an enthusiastic unveiling of a plan for a 12-team playoff last summer has come to a halt. The college sports leaders tasked with working out the details are at an impasse.

“Seems like everyone says they’re committed to expand the CFP, but it’s hard to believe that because we can’t expand the CFP,” Sun Belt Commissioner Keith Gill told The AP.

The management committee, comprised of 10 conference commissioners and Notre Dame’s athletic director, met by video conference earlier this week.
