## Resource

The aftermath of Michigan vs. Western Michigan is pure theater. A phantom second stole the Broncos’ win, and now the MAC, the NCAA, Russ Kavalhuna, and the Coaches Poll all want credit for noticing too late. Jason rips the cover-up: Michigan keeps the ranking, Western Michigan gets seven votes, and everyone pretends nothing correctable happened. All the pressure is on New England coach Mike Vrabel tonight as the Patriots open the new NFL season at Seattle — Vrabel’s first game after his controversial offseason. Then, Jason and Pastor Anthony go at Edgerrin James after the Hall of Famer called his son Jizzle — nickname, parenting, and culture collide. Jason’s Closing Argument unloads on Deion Sanders and the Coach Prime brand. ➢​​Today's Sponsors Help save babies by supporting PreBorn, where just $28 provides a life-saving ultrasound.
