The CDL is negotiating a better revenue sharing agreement with its teams, thank God. Can we stop with this trying to ban court storming crap? This weekend just FEELS like the first weekend of March. WE'VE GOT A NEW POKEMON LEGENDS GAME!!!!!!

College basketball has reached its best time of the year and I expect similar amounts of chaos to what we've had the past few. CDL Major II qualifiers are looking pretty similar to Major I so far. HCS is still going to be dominated by the Big 3, but that doesn't mean it won't still be fun.

THE ORIOLES HAVE A NEW OWNER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats Rodger, you've gone full Manfred. Toronto Ultra is just better than everyone else.

Intro and Outro Song: Orioles Magic

The Ravens are back in the AFC Championship Game and I expect them to win, duh. I don't know how to feel about the NFC game since my heart wants one thing to happen but my brain is telling me it won't. MASSIVE Halo Infinite update next week. HCS 2024 looks really good. The Paramount show just has to come along and kill the vibes, doesn't it? CDL Major I is going to be a Champs rematch, you heard it here first.

All but one of the NFL Wild Card games were complete and total blowouts, but I have some hope for the divisional round. Sledge decided to take a massive hammer (pun very much intended) to the entire meta right before the first Major of the season. I love you college basketball, please keep this up for the next two months.

CDL picks (w/odds):

The fifth year (or sixth depending on if you count the few months at The Light) of the Mash Up is here and oh boy so much has happened. Nick Saban and Bill Belichick both less than 24 hours from each other. The National Championship and CFP were both really fun. The NFL Playoffs seem like they'll be a little chalky this year. I don't know what the heck is going on in the CDL in the early going of the season. College basketball always starts to show off in January, I can smell March in the air.

Oh. My. God. The Liberty Flames are going to the Fiesta Bowl. FSU got totally screwed. The CDL made a lot of mistakes but I am still excited for a new season. Halo S2 actually looks...good? The Orioles might get sold. GTA VI looks INSANE. My most likely very wrong Game Awards Predictions

Liberty has a chance at a NY6 Bowl after just five years. The CFP selection is going to be absolutely insane, at least I hope so. NO MORE SBMM IN PUUBS AND NO MORE SNAKING IN THE CDL!!!! LAG finally announced their roster, only took them until a week before the season starts. Liberty basketball is really good and I think this season is going to be fun.

I expected to be a lot happier with CoD than I currently am. College basketball is back and I have a wild prediction. What is CFP Committee smoking? This Michigan cheating thing has gotten totally out of control. It's time for Maryland to move on from Locksley.

Intro Song: Call of Duty MW3 Main Theme

Outro Song: Fan the Flames

Congrats Rangers, you earned it. We're getting down to the wire of the CFB season and I have no idea where it's going. The Michigan cheating thing just makes it even more confusing. DON'T FALL FOR IT COMMANDERS FANS! JOSH HARRIS HAS NOTHING TO OFFER YOU BUT FALSE HOPE! The CDL season starts in five weeks and we still don't know 25% of the league's rosters.
