Mother Nature vs. Sports
If the coronavirus wasn’t a big enough obstacle for professional sports, wildfires are presenting additional obstacles for teams. The series between the Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres (MLB – Major League Baseball) has been moved from Seattle to San Diego because of the smoke. Don’t be surprised if there’s a change in the highly anticipated meet up between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots (NFL – National Football League). It’s been said that playing in the current conditions would be like playing in a “smoke filled bar.” WITHOUT THE BENEFITS OF THE COCKTAILS

Carolina Panthers (NFL) star running back Christian McCaffrey is hitting the newsstands on the cover of GQ Magazine…in his underwear. In his first time of almost baring it all, he no doubt went to the expert, his girlfriend Olivia Culpo. Culpo happens to be a former Miss Universe and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model.

ESPN College GameDay is headed to Louisville where 12,000 fans will be permitted to cheer their team on from the stands. Some schools aren't as lucky with the football game between North Carolina and Charlotte being cancelled due to positive COVID tests. Luckily for Oklahoma State and Tulsa, their postponed game from last week will take place this weekend. PICK YOUR BATTLES
Coaches’ corner
The Army football team was left without an opponent this Saturday after BYU was forced to postpone due to a handful of positive player COVID tests So, they did what any logical college football team would do, they took to Twitter to find a new opponent. It read like a dating profile “Undefeated, COVID negative college football team from NY looking for like minded, disciplined team for a date next Saturday…must also be COVID negative!

The Top 5 Most Ridiculous and Hilarious Traditions in College Football
These traditions are way better than the annual pilgrimage to see the Nutcracker.
Skip the customary annual ‘political debate over dinner’ holiday tradition in favor of these fun-filled favorites.

1. Remember when toilet papering a house was something you did to your worse enemy? Not at Auburn University. After a win, fans toilet paper the oaks on Toomer's Corner on campus. This tradition, that started in 1972, was stopped for three years after an Alabama fan poisoned the trees, but now it’s back. Do you think desperate college students clean it up afterward to stock their bathrooms? TWO-PLY PARTY
2. A tradition at Murray State since the late 70s, a horse nicknamed Racer One runs a lap around the field at home games after a touchdown. This tradition also comes to you from the school where after couples DTR, they hang their shoes on the Shoe Tree for luck. SOLE MATES
3. After their rival Georgia Tech discontinued their annual game, Clemson Tigers fans hit back with their wallets. They spent $2 bills stamped with the team’s signature orange tiger paw logo all over Atlanta. This 40-year tradition still remains, with Clemson fans paying with said $2 bills when traveling to away games. WAIT, SOMEONE CARRIES CASH?
4. Florida State University began a “sod cemetery” back in 1962. The team would bring back grass from their opponent’s field after a win. But now there are new rules in place. The Seminoles must be underdogs or the victory must be in a championship or bowl game to warrant a sod funeral. REST IN PEACE
5. A tradition nearly 100 years in the making is arriving via boat for a Washington Huskies football game. Then fans relive their spring break by boatgating. They party on boats and like any other tailgate there are ping pong tables, grills, TVs and of course plenty to drink. BUT WILL THERE BE SKINNY DIPPING?

3. At the University of Wisconsin – Madison (aka Wisconsin), Badgers fans work off their tailgate treats at the end of the third quarter. When the song “Jump Around” by House of Pain is played, the entire stadium literally jumps. That’s one way to bring down the house.
