  1. First day off of harvest since September 10th. Apple orchard followed by local distillery. She’s at the age where 4 weeks ushers in a whole new phase.
  2. That’s not what Project Rudy is proposing FWIW.
  3. RIOT BOWL BITCHES https://youtu.be/rnZWvKh7Ch4?si=XXLzW8z1Zjn0wtWo
  4. It’s just Campbell, specifically. But our fanbase will do literally anything he wants. As we should.
  5. Exactly. Texas would still be in the SEC, and they would get more money than they do now. What changes is that the Big 12 and ACC are guaranteed to still be included, and the mid-low tier Big 10/SEC schools no longer make the same as the blue bloods. The only reason anyone here should be opposed to project Rudy is if they want the Big 12 and ACC schools to be kicked out of major college football. The only schools that would stand to lose anything are the Purdues of the world, and even then they’d see no change from a fan perspective
  6. I’ve always appreciated how all of Pittsburgh’s pro teams use the same color scheme.
  7. The thing I read had the top tier schools making way more than they do now. The league commissioners will fight it tooth and nail. It renders Sankey gloriously irrelevant. The whole current conference model, really, which is great. The schools who would lose are the Big 10/SEC remoras who would be on a similar tier to the Big 12 and ACC. The blue bloods make more than they do now and the 12/ACC ensure inclusion.
  8. Seems like a good deal for you guys
  9. I think the only schools that will have any problem with this are the Big 10 and SEC clingers that have been riding the blue blood gravy train and feel that compensation is a birth right. Purdue, Mississippi State, etc. This would be a huge win for the blue bloods and the Big 12/ACC.
  10. That’s the one. My brother and SIL took us there a few years back. Stellar breakfast spot.
  11. Is that the Cuban place in south Minneapolis?

    Getting old sucks

    Yeah, I don’t have a visible bald spot yet, but I probably would by Xmas if I did nothing. Just stopping loss is good enough

    I do have a lot of spray paint...

    Anyone have experience with Rogaine? I'm 39 and had a completely full head of hair until maybe a month or two ago. At my last haircut (early September) my barber confirmed it was starting to thin on top. I still appear to have a full head, and want to keep it that way if possible. Just ordered a shot of Rogaine and curious if I completely wasted $ or not.
  15. It inadvertently rolled out of my mouth the other day, and I almost vomited.
  16. This is one of the most logical moves put out there in the last month.
  17. I like the rivalry games being spread out. Gives them a better spotlight
  18. I think the SBC is clearly #3 in the current G5 landscape, and is probably better at football than the new MWC is going to be. It's really a pretty damn entertaining league with some invested fanbases and good players. It seems like a pretty solid model for G5 football at this stage.
  19. As a fan of a Big 12 school, I'm glad it's not us adding them.
  20. That clip perfectly encapsulates why I quit listening to that podcast
  21. UNI in the MAC would be a lot of fun.
  22. I mean, I wish the entire sport would do this, but right now it would really make a ton of sense for the G5 to get together and sell their media rights as a package like the NFL. Pair off into geographically logical divisions (which would allow ALL sports to follow suit), and create some kind of season format where the G5 winner/best team plays in the 12 team playoff (you would still have early games against the larger schools). They seem to be utterly cannibalizing each other at this point for absolutely no gain at all, and I don't think it's creating a more interesting product, whereas I think we are seeing (at least while the novelty of the new matchups is there) an even more compelling product in not just the Big 10 and SEC, but definitely in the Big 12 and possibly in the ACC too. But that's more a result of consolidation with (so far) very little shedding of schools in the aggregate. The G5 is splintering into smaller factions, which seems dilutive to me.
  23. YouTubeTV has it
  24. Strongly prefer to it to ESPN+ or U
  25. The articles indicate the extra games will be on big CBS and CBSSN. They want more college hoops and the Big 12 is the best college hoops conference. They aren't doing this to push content onto an app.
