Brads’ Breakdown: Ode to the four team playoff
By Alan Brads
Usually, I am a proud member of the four team playoff club. I dread next year's change to the 12 team playoff which irreparably degrades the meaningfulness of regular season games and conference championship games.

But this week, as a Buckeyes fan, I long for the 12 team College Football ...

By Anna Harmon
I wasn’t sure what to expect from the new film “The Marvels.” It looked like it could be interesting, but the previews did not really spark my interest. Marvel hasn’t put out many good movies or TV shows lately, so I wasn’t expecting much from this film. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed it and thought it was hilarious and fun to watch.
In the film, Captain Marvel (Brie Larson), Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) and Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) all have powers ...
