Scott Frost said he had seen the movie before. He meant he watched his Nebraska football team make the same mistakes they did in too many games and he just witnessed it again as his team lost the season opener at Illinois. The post-game presser was a repeat of others for Frost where he tried to find the positives and remain optimistic but knows the critics are louder. He is now 12-21 at Nebraska. Scott Frost once told longtime TV sports anchor Pat Clarke and myself when he was at UCF that he had two homes. He viewed Orlando and Lincoln as his homes and that if he failed at UCF he could always go back home to Nebraska. But if he left UCF and then failed at Nebraska he would have no place to call home. That is sad because there is no place like home. Frost battles issues on the field and off with an NCAA investigation and an impatient fan base that expected a contending team by year four. To me, it's simple in one big area. Frost found McKenzie Milton for UCF. He thought Adrian Martinez would be his McKenzie Milton at Nebraska. I know McKenzie Milton and Adrian Martinez ain't no McKenzie Milton and Scott Frost may have to find a new place to call home if things don't get better quickly...Took part in a fantasy football draft on Saturday and it happened within the first three minutes. What happened? Someone screams out "what's the wifi password" followed by "I can't log on to that link you sent"...Maybe the PGA Tour needs the Brooks Koepka-Bryson DeChambeau rivalry and maybe Bryson should expect someone in the rivalry to be the villain. But things boiled over after DeChambeau missed a putt on the sixth-playoff hole at the BMW Championship and lost to Patrick Cantlay. After shaking hands with the winner, Bryson began a long walk back to the scoring tent. He stopped briefly to hand his hat to a wanting fan and then kept walking until he heard someone scream out "Great job, Brooksie!". DeChambeau turned and confronted the fan. After a brief comment back, DeChambeau continued his walk to the scoring tent. Fans are a part of every sport and golf is benefitting its fans and their return to the sport but we are asking for trouble in a sport where fans are so close to players and this situation could have gotten ugly. DeChambeau was the hulk everyone loved a few months back at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and five-plus months later he seems to have become the most hated golfer on the tour not named Patrick Reed...YouTube star beats former UFC fighter in a boxing match and that's supposed to be a big deal?...The Dolphins appear to have an interest in trading for DeShaun Watson. No one can question the football talents of Watson but his many issues off the field makes you question any team interested in Watson. Stephen Ross owns the Dolphins and would owe all the press conference answers if his team pulls the trigger on a deal for a player with 22 women accusing DeShaun Watson with unacceptable behavior-not one but 22...The Big XII may want BYU for football only. They may want UCF and Cincinnati. They may even want Boise State. But it all boils down to this. What does ESPN and FOX think and how much are those brands worth along with the remaining eight. The rest of all this is just noise. Expansion committees and statements by a commissioner mean nothing. It's always about the money...I love to watch cooking shows. I pick up tips and recipes and love seeing how great foods are made. I love Guy Fieri and his "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives." I just once want to watch the show where he visits a restaurant and goes to taste the dish prepared and says "I'm gonna be honest. I don't like it. Not that good. Taste bland. Do you have anything else?"...
