Megyn Kelly, who arrived at Fox News 12 years ago as a television news neophyte but rose to become one of its two biggest stars, has decided to leave the network to take on a broad new role at NBC News for an undisclosed salary, NBC announced Tuesday afternoon.
The NBC News chairman, Andrew Lack, wooed Ms. Kelly away from Fox News by offering her a triple role in which she will host her own daytime news and discussion program, anchor an in-depth Sunday night news show and take regular part in the network’s special political programming and other big-event coverage.

OPEN THREAD!
Got some good games coming up today so lets get started:
 #17 Florida |
 |
1:00 PM |
Its the Panhandle Red Neck U versus The Corn Fed Flyover Farmers. FL is a 2.5 point favorite. This is a battle of defenses. I think FL can cover.
 #15 Western Michigan |
 #8 Wisconsin |
1:00 PM |
Please, WMU does not deserve to be in this game. W is a 8 point favorite and will best this spread.
 #9 USC |
 #5 Penn State |
5:00 PM |
I am VERY impressed by what Coach Franklin and his staff have done with the program at PSU. They have managed to mostly get past the pedophilia ring that JoePA ran in the locker room and most of the Happy Valley Zombies are not pining for boy-rape facilitator JoePa anymore. Sure, there are some who still pray daily to his likeness, but most of them have come to their senses.Every wonder why Sandusky never got offers from the pros or other colleges, it was an open secret that he raped boys, and JoePa, mister accountability and ‘always do the right thing’, failed in his most important and most defining test. He let it happen. Burn in hell Paterno, you hypocrite.
USC is a 7 point favorite, nope, PSU covers and just might win outright. And I hope they do.
 #14 Auburn |
 #7 Oklahoma |
8:30 PM |
OU is a 3 point favorite, they cover and more. That OU offense is really good and I don’t think that AU’s D can hang for 60 minutes.

And so the new year begins. Resolutions, anyone? In keeping with responsible climate change protocols, I’ll recycle mine from last year – eat better, cut out sugar (easier to do now that Starbucks has wound down the availability of the Cranberry Bliss Bar) and write more (and more better). That last one sometimes is able to last almost till the end of January.
It’s the last week of the NFL, of a season that started off with political asshattery and ended with injury agony. Jack del Rio has been catching a lot of heat this week for the pass playcall that sent Derek Carr onto a surgeon’s table and my son into a screaming fit. But let’s see what McGloin can pull off this week against Denver. When he QB’d last, there was entirely different makeup and mindset to that offense.
I’d like to see the Titans pull out a win today, just for Mr. Mariotta. I doubt either he or Mr. Carr have left the hospital so they’re watching, guys. Win it for them.
And the Browns finally picked up a win. Can they make it two in a row. It’s the Steelers, guys. I wish you well, but I am sadly a realist.
So, to enjoy if you’re taking down the tree today and finishing off the last of the eggnog (is it me, or does eggnog lose its penache after December 25th?), here’s your playcard:
The Games (everybody plays a divison rival today. Heavy intensity)
Ravens @ Bengals

Bills @ Jets
Cowboys @ Eagles
Browns @ Steelers
Panthers @ Buccaneers
Texans @ Titans
Saints @ Falcons
