Nitt Links Is Turning 50

If you buy something from an SB Nation link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

49 "episodes" ago Nitt Links was just a small list of links, 5 comments (3 of which were "Bleacher Report sucks") and overall a little sad. Now we've got this down to a science and I'm proud to be the one to welcome you to the site each morning. It's been fun. Anyway, enough hugs and trust-falls. Since the sky hasn't fallen over the weekend we're going to have a little bit of fun after the jump.

FWIW, today is Men's Basketball media day. I'm sure something will be up later with all sorts of DeChellis qoutes for you to...comment on.

Penn State-Indiana Game to Help Support THON

A portion of ticket revenue from the Penn State-Indiana football game next month will help support the Penn State Interfraternity Council/Panhellenic Dance Marathon. This is an older story, but with student ticket sales for that game starting today it's a good reminder.
