Do you plan on watching and/or betting on the race?

I normally watch, but do not bet. Might watch some of the earlier races, but I do not watch solid thru the whole day.

Hey guys. Dumb question as I’ve lost track with travel and other things. When do single game tickets for both home and away go on sale for season ticket holders. Need to buy some more and I feel bad texting my guy at 6pm

I was watching the Olympic Relay Qualifying this weekend on Peacock. 12 countries qualified at the event and then they fill in the other 2 thru the world rankings. Since 16 or higher was the number they kept talking about the US was going to likely be qualified anyway, but they qualified thru this meet. The US 4X400 Mixed, 4X100 men's and women's and the women's 4X400 won the meet. The 4X400 men's won the qualifying heat they were in, but got DQ'ed as one of the runners moved out of the spot he was place by the judge when the field was 200 meters away. They had to do a second qualifying race on Day 2, so was not in the final.

Okay now for my question. The 100 meters runners had white tape they placed on the track after measuring a distance going heel/toe from as spot on what looked like was the exterior lane line. What was they measuring? The handoff zone is already marked on the track, so that was not it.

Thanks if someone knows.

Hey there, fellow inhabitants of this crazy planet! NCBUFF here, accompanied by Oliver, the self-proclaimed Master Feline of the Universe.

So, picture this: I'm on my 82nd lap around the sun, aiming for more laps if the creek don’t rise and ruin the party. But wait, hold onto your hats, because here comes the plot twist! My blood tests recently had me sweating bullets, thinking I might have to say goodbye to my Keytruda lifeline. Turns out, my kidneys are acting like they're auditioning for a trampoline show, bouncing all over the place with their levels. Apparently, I've got 45% kidney damage, thanks to a chemo cocktail from way back when. Who knew chemo could be so rude?

Now, instead of swirling wine like a pro, I'm chugging water like it's the latest health craze. It's like a sommelier's worst nightmare, but hey, I'll take it over kidney damage any day! And speaking of unexpected talents, I've become a regular at the acupuncture clinic, trying to keep my anxiety, fatigue, and rogue kidneys in check. Who knew poking needles could be so therapeutic?

But wait, there's more! My swallowing abilities decided to go on vacation without me, leaving me to choke on food like a newbie at a hot dog eating contest. Cue the panic! Thankfully, a Speech Pathologist is riding to the rescue, and I'm seeing them faster than you can say "Heimlich maneuver."

In the midst of all this chaos, art has become my saving grace. I'm gearing up for a gallery event, ready to show off my creations like a proud parent at a talent show.

Oh, and did I mention Oliver, my furry sidekick? He's been a bit feisty lately, probably because I'm smelling like all kinds of funky with my wonky blood values. Cats, am I right? One minute they're cuddling, the next they're treating your hand like a chew toy.

Now, onto the less glamorous part: medical bills. They're piling up faster than I can say "ouch," and it's like playing a never-ending game of financial whack-a-mole. If you've got a spare dollar or two rattling around in your pocket, consider tossing it my way. Every little bit helps, and I promise to shower you with gratitude that'll warm your heart faster than a microwave burrito. My current unpaid copays balance is $4,750. WOW!

Thanks for being awesome, folks. Your support means the world to me, Oliver, and my ever-dwindling bank account.

Blessings, Craig (NCBUFF)

He’ll have two seasons of remaining eligibility with the Buffs.

Understanding that not everyone was available, and also that it’s a work in progress with all the additional transfers coming in, can someone please list the starting O and D in the spring game last Saturday?

"Just win baby!" and Voilà, all this goes away.

While we’ve been watching the mass exodus of CU players to the portal (17 at last count,) CU fans have been saying “College football can’t sustain this,” and “This is crazy. It’s NIL-driven.” That’s been the chorus on this board, and also on other CU forums and among CU fans in general.

Now, let’s talk a little reality.

I had asked Nikki and our Rivals mods how CU compares so far with other schools with player losses during this Spring portal opening, but heard no reply. So, I put some numbers together by myself, and they’re sobering. Totally sobering.

We’re sitting here as CU fans in a bubble with our 17 players who have jumped in the spring portal. Why? Because CU is a total outlier. Other than Houston (15 spring portal losses so far,) not one P4 team I checked has half that many. Here’s what things look like nationally and in the Big-12 so far with spring portal losses:

Spring Portal Losses, Key National Teams:
Zero: Clemson, Florida, UVA
One: Oregon, UCLA, Tennessee
Two: Ohio St, Michigan, UNC, PSU, Georgia, Nebraska, Wisconsin
Three: Auburn, USC
Four: A&M
Five: Va Tech, Miami
Six: Texas, Washington
Seven: LSU

Spring Portal Losses, Big-12 Teams:
Zero: Oklahoma St
One: WVU, Baylor
Two: KSU, ISU
Three: TCU, BYU, ASU, Arizona
Four: Texas Tech
Five: UCF, KU
Six: Cincy
Seven: Utah
Fifteen: Houston
Seventeen: CU

Many CU fans have been saying that the portal is devasting teams, that recruiting out of high school just means losing players the following year, and that college football can’t sustain this. But let’s come back to reality. College football is ruled by a combination of ESPN/FOX and a small contingent of something like six power-brand schools – Ohio State, Georgia, Texas, Michigan, USC, and PSU, and maybe a few others. Add all of the spring portal losses for those six schools, the total sum, and you still don’t have the losses experienced by just one -- the Colorado Buffaloes.

Oh, we can tell ourselves that the Buffs haven’t been losing that many starters, real contributors. But we’re back-peddling, looking for excuses. The reality is that the shock and pain and dismay around CU as we’ve seen another mass portal exit has not been experienced by the powers of college football during the spring portal.

With our current coach, we’ve bought ourselves into a football revolving door that other schools have avoided, even with NIL. As Coach Prime University (nobody calls Bama “DeBoer U,” or The Ohio State “Ryan Day U”) we’ve given up continuity and connection for chaos. A total annual free-agency. That's what's not sustainable.

The bottom line: Yes, we can expect some tweaking of the portal and NIL among power schools (the basketball schools want it,) but it won’t be driven by the football bluebloods, and it’ll focus more on NIL than on the portal. The football portal is CU’s issue. Sanders wants to win before his kids leave, and he's willing to re-stock with cast-offs from other schools to try to get there. But the portal and spring portal exits, is hardly noticeable in Gainesville, Columbus, State College, College Station, Ann Arbor, or Tuscaloosa. It's not a huge issue other than in Boulder, Colorado.
