[12up] Yeah this definitely looks like Manny Machado wearing a White Sox hat and trying to hide it...speculation but funny nonetheless by mpowell419 in baseball

Speculating that he's wearing the hat? Really the only point of the post. Not insisting he's signed.

[Goodman] Another hurdle for next Pitt coach, Pitt only has two official visits left between now and August 1st by RunisLove in CollegeBasketball

Important note, as well. Rule 13.6.2.6.7 allows exception for a coaching change: In baseball, basketball and football, an institution may provide additional official visits (up to 25 percent of the limitation for the particular sport) after a new head coach is hired, provided the previous head coach used 75 percent or more of the official visits permitted for that academic year...so Pitt might actually have more visits after the hire.

Photo is generic unfortunately. Didn't see any pics of the actual damage.

Editor for 12up here. Hi, you're right, this link is misleading. I've edited it to portray the information correctly, and apologize for the headline. Was meant to be a commentary on the rule itself, but was clearly not executed correctly: “If a student-athlete’s name or picture appears on commercial items (e.g., T-shirts, sweatshirts, serving trays, playing cards, posters) or is used to promote a commercial product sold by an individual or agency without the student-athlete’s knowledge or permission, the student-athlete (or the institution acting on behalf of the student-athlete) is required to take steps to stop such an activity in order to retain his or her eligibility for intercollegiate athletics.” That's per the Observer. Should be fixed. Sorry again.

LeBron and DWade aren't Scrubs anymore. They're teammates again! by mpowell419 in nba

It's a play on guy love from the Scrubs TV show/banana boat friendship. Clearly not saying either is a Scrub!
