I don’t try to get involved in the college sports realm of who’s guilty and innocent and who is a bit, and should be fired. I will make an exception in the Urban Meyer case because it’s more than whether a coach stays or goes. It’s an attack on white male authority that progressives and SJW’s are trying to undermine or change.
Yes Urban May have been negligent as a leader in that particular case with the former assistant. But he hasn’t been embroiled in scandals the way that some of the other coaches have been. Dock him a games pay I can support. Throw him in the Olentangy Rover or Lake Erie, I need a better reason than one incident.

Baseball trading deadline and evaluations of all teams
July 31st marked the Major League Baseball trading deadline and the point in which teams gear up for a run at a playoff berth or retool and plan for the future. Here are my grades for all 30 teams.
AL East: Baltimore traded most of the veterans that were worth something. Machado, Britton, Brach, Gausman and Schoop. Next step is get rid of Showalter and Duquette, dinosaurs from the 90’s.
Boston. Like their football brothers I don’t like the, but they made small and smart moves. Eovaldi and Kinsler will help them in their attempt to hold off the Yankees.
New York. Got help in the bullpen and starting rotation in Happ, Britton and Lynn.
Tampa. Unloaded Archer onto Pittsburgh but got Pham from St. Louis. interesting
Toronto, traded Happ but not Donaldson. They should have dealt Donaldson and or Tulowitzki in the winter. Too bad. John Gibbons will not be managing this team in February.
Al Central
Chicago, a hapless franchise owned by a guy who isn’t interested in putting money in the team.
Cleveland, got Brad Hand from San Diego and Leonys Martin from Detroit
Detroit not much
Kansas City traded Moustakas to Milwaukee
Minnesota sent Lynn to New York. Hopefully Mauer will leave the Twins after this year. His contract was an albatross.
AL West
Houston got Osuna and Maldonado. I will deal with Osuna separately
Los Angeles traded some people
Oakland made a move
Seattle got Cameron Maybin
Texas traded a reliever to Pittsburgh
