Don’t get mad, get even. Or in the case of Ohio State, get everybody you can. As the sports world shifts its focus to the end of the NFL season, college basketball, and the NBA, this is the time of the year when college football becomes an afterthought — unless you’re the folks in Columbus,…
I’m a big breakfast person, but I don’t tend to eat it in the morning. To me, the magic of runny eggs with buttered toast or a piping hot bowl of creamy steel-cut oats is best enjoyed languorously at the end of the day, not in that semi-caffeinated fog typical of a weekday morning. I…

That’s what professional athletes do, of course, it’s part of the job. But they’re also still human, and it gets hard to shut out the list that makes Djokovic the…
