Winning national titles gets you paid.

It’s almost time!
Joe West getting suspended is long deserved. I’m not shedding a tear on this.
If true, this is amazing.
Very smart, guys. Well done.
I probably would have gone to a game or two if this were around when I was there.
This is NCAA levels of stupid. The North Carolina high school athletics commission should be ashamed.
I love it.
Congratulations to Justin. I knew he had a great year, but I didn’t know it was *that* good.
This was worrisome. It still feels like we’re going to have a scenario where he needs some kind of “fix” before the end of the contract.
No surprise here. Deshaun has been great for years.

Clemson’s 2017 Football Schedule
Though [I’m still basking in the glow of Clemson’s national title victory](http://ropedrop.net/2017/01/congratulations-to-the-national-champion-clemson-tigers/)), [Clemson’s 2017 schedule has been released](http://www.shakinthesouthland.com/2017/1/24/14371280/2017-clemson-football-schedule-released). After a warm-up on September 2nd against Kent State, Clemson’s welcomes Auburn on September 9th (which should give us a good idea of the 2017 Tigers).
Clemon’s ACC opener comes next and its [against Louisville on September 16](http://sports.yahoo.com/news/clemson-begins-acc-title-defense-with-trip-to-louisville-191958381.html). This is kind of a bummer since it doesn’t give Clemson much time to adjust to life without Deshuan Watson. (As a side note, [Louisville plays Carolina the week before](http://www.tarheelblog.com/2017/1/24/14373052/unc-football-2017-schedule-tar-heels-louisville-notre-dame).)
Major remaining games include at Virginia Tech on September 30, home against Florida State on November 11, and at South Carolina on November 25th.
Should be an interesting year.
I haven’t had time to fully process this. Losing Moncado feels like a blow, but Sale might be worth it? Dombrowski’s reputation, however, makes it feel like another “giving up too much of the future” to win *now* move.
Nice little feather in the cap for Mookie.

The future is bright the core of the Red Sox. Here’s hoping Dombrowski can put a complete team around them.
Make this season count, then.
“Revis Island” seems like a pretty comfortable place to be these days.
“After getting crushed in the media for 2 days, we’ve decided we should probably look into this…” – A person familiar with the matter.
And I thought JBJ was the one with the arm.
One of the benefits of the Red Sox scuffling this season has been Benintendi getting called up. He’s doing great so far.
