The doctor couldn’t drain my knee because it has coagulated. They tried three times. I have a Frankenknee. Nick and I try to figure out if this WikiLeaks story can be put into a sports context.

SIGN UP FOR THE FREE DARKO PARTY TOMORROW NIGHT IN NYC. Nick’s back and we talk a little about my knee which is about as gross as one could imagine at this point. MRI Friday and I find out the results today. When will I be off the DL? We tackle the BCS standings and [...]

Cook, after all, built MGoBlog on his own and made it his career. Could MGoBlog work now? Could the site start now and thrive like [...]
