    Can one invest in a public university??

    yeah. thats going to be the real problem.  

    I can see the private schools being able to do this, with ND being the obvious CFB crown jewel, but right behind them would be USC and then a little behind them would be Miami  and for CBB, Duke would be the top pick..

    Private schools selling shares of their teams to a hedgefund could very easily kill any advantage NIL gave the big schools

  2. like many of us, I will miss having the network that caused Aggy to rage-quit the Big 12.

    I am also going to miss the guaranteed time set aside to watch UT home volleyball, soccer, tennis, track and of course all the baseball and softball games.  But I think with the heavy expansion of ESPN+ probably 90-95% of the home games that would have been on LHN will still be viewable for streaming.

     

    The main advantage to losing LHN for most of us, is we are no longer required to have a cable/streaming/satellite provider that had LHN.  going forward, we can pick any of the multiple streaming choice options that have the ESPN packages and we all can probably save money because there are now at least 5 maybe as many as 10 different cable "like" choices that have a sports plan and we can pick the one that gives us the most channels for the least cost.

    I’m surprised the DA hasn't dropped the charges and issued an apology

    I didnt see it on the thread, but the clown cop managed to get himself admitted to the hospital with  "pain, swelling and abrasions" to his left wrist and knee 

    so, in short, the cop and his fellow blue liners realized they fucked up bad and are scrambling to do anything they can to try and prove their side of the story.

    nevermind that there is a material RELIABLE witness in Jeff Darlington who has said from the very first report this morning that Detective clown shoes "attached" himself onto the car door and tried to pull Scottie out of the car getting dragged in the process. 

    so the D.A. cant insta drop the charges just yet because the hero cop lost his pants and has a boo-boo on his knee.  It will take a few days before they can prove this idiot's actions heavily created any actual injuries he received.

    I think that more has to do with them murdering black people.

    well that, and them doing stupid fucking decisions all the time.

     

    I watched the live ESPN coverage about 25 mins ago and the reporter who watched the whole thing go down and started recording once he realized Scotty was under arrest,   and is the guy Scotty asked "for some help here" couldnt get a fucking word in with the cop. 

    There isnt a fucking notice anywhere on the yellow vest that the guy is a cop. Also important to note, the reporter is the one who from the beginning of the story claimed the cop JUMPED on the side of Scotty's car.   This fucking clown was pissed no one respected his authority

  5. pretty pissed that we as a country arent calling out Belarus straight up in the international community.

    and by call out, I mean flat out tell them, if you continue to allow a foreign power to attack a sovereign country THROUGH your country, then by extension you are saying you are no longer a country, and just a vassal state to a terrorist run country and Poland can invade and play out their 1944 Warsaw revenge fantasies.

    Maybe he was just pointing out that while it did catch on fire no doors fell off

    well that and NONE of the 10+ fucking workers even made a fucking move to either A) DQ the power...

    or B) the most obvious choice when you see a fire.... GRAB A FUCKING FIRE EXTINGUISHER

    Holy shit, 3 mins of them going: "wow, thats a cool fire in the wheelwell on a plane with people in it. its like 2 foot above my head but fuck it, its not my job to put out a fire"

  8. i dont understand why we cant just sneak in a tomahawk (or 100) that we accidentally sold to Saudia Arabia 30 years ago and ooops it found its way to Ukraine and then every fucking Russian Airbase within 1500 Km of Ukrainian territory discovers them landing all at the same time one night. 

    It seems like as long as no one attacks Moscow or St Pete with anything other than a 50lb drone, Putin and Russia are shrugging off everything else that hits them.

  9. Russian ties trying to kill Fico really doesnt make much sense. 

     

    The guy wasnt a great friend to Ukraine, and seemed to lean towards the Russian sphere of influence.   If he dies, I dont think he gets replaced by an even more Russian backing PM. I dont think the country would allow that.

    So this seems like an guy on the same political side, but pissed because Fico wasnt supporting Russian enough? '

    kind of like the guy who killed Rabin in 95 because he was pissed that Rabin was trying to create a lasting peace.

    So what happened?

     Obviously it was a cyber attack

     the FBI took the crews phones and confined them on the boat and they are all still on the boat 2 months later… did they even get to get off during controlled demolition next to them?

    For 2 months on a fucked up ship with no communication out? 
     

    Where is the findings from the investigation? I guess since they didn’t even start an investigation for a month it’s only been a month of investigation but damn. Not a peep

     

    jesus fucking christ you wackadoodle.   lemme guess WT7 was taken out by explosive demolition in your warped mind.????

     

    holding a ship and her crew after a fuckup in a port is pretty fucking common, especially if the fuckup ends up costing millions of dollars in damage esp if it cost some lives.

    If the crew of the ship (or the owners of the ship by extension), skipped safety protocols, ignored warnings, and set sail without a fully functioning ship, there are mega civil AND criminal liabilities.  basically the Captain, the chief engineer, 2nd officer, and whoever the fuck was actually driving the boat are all on the hook for manslaughter charges or worse.

    The ship's owners and insurance company are ultimately responsible for most of the reparations.  And there is a pretty good chance the ship doesnt have anywhere near enough insurance to cover the actual damages and replacement bridge costs, plus the accidental dealth payouts to those poor workers. 

    impounding the ship is the only way to have a chance to either get the max payout of the insurance company, or auction the damn thing off to get some money back. 

     

    dont believe me:

    Ever Given- the Suez Canal fuckup ship, impounded for 4 months until the insurance paid a large chunk of cash to Egypt

    MV Aman- seized by Egypt authorities for lack of diesel payment- the Captain was forced to live on the ship without food or power for FOUR FUCKING YEARS

    MV Rosus- became unseaworthy in port- the ship was seized, cargo of amonium nitrate stupidly left in a fireworks warehouse for 6 years before the 5th largest non-nuclear non-natural explosion took place in Aug 2020

  11. In Brad Owens most recent video he announced that hes selling pieces of his upcoming tournaments on poker stake at 0 markup.

     

    Not saying hes a great tourney player, but hes had some pretty big cashes in the last year.

    shes the kind of cunt that doesnt want to see kids playing "where they shouldn't" and doing something non-destructive  and then complains bitterly when "those kids" end up vandalizing the neighborhood and cars and petty theft and breakins...

  13. unless I am misreading it, you literally have zero on top, not even a pair.

    on the bottom you have the lowest possible boat. 

    yeah, you have the 5 blocker, and there is a 7 on the other board.  so both of those help vs 55 and 77 but that river 9 is the biggest worry.    

    Because 998x  99Jx  especially if they have a flush draw would almost always call the $40 on the flop.  Even more so if they had 99A (ESPECIALLY if they had 99 with the nut heart draw). since you didnt mention which card on board 1 was the non-heart.

    and that doesnt even get into someone having the other 3 with maybe an Ace and either a 7 or 9 with some combo hit for that top board like 78/ 89/ 7T/ J9 for their other cards to call the flop.  I believe there are 10 possible hand combinations that beat you on the bottom board and 2 more that tie you.

     

    If you know 2 of the guys are literally idiots who will always call with JUST a 3, or a straight on that board, then maybe its worth calling.

     

    However, playing double bomb pots where you have literally zero on 1 board and dont have close to the nuts on the other board, and you have had 3 other guys call flop/turn full pot bets and then get almost all of it in before you even act is a massive red flag.

    yeah theres like a 25% chance you win the bottom (because its still fucking hard to make a boat), which means you risk $700 to win something like $2240 plus (the 2 card combo chance of you chopping the bottom board and calling $700 to "only" win $1120). 

    Heads up thats probably a call. unless the guy is as super tight as you imply.

    But going 4 ways to showdown here. I fold. Yeah, its called gambling, not playing, but I would have to think you have better spots down the road to win that $700 easier than here

  14. I can just see the defense attorney putting up 2 straight hours of videos of this:

     

     

    Your honor and members of the jury, my client didnt train Pookie to drop bricks on people, its just that he, like all dogs, losses his FUCKING MIND when the doorbell goes off and he decided that the only way to stop it from happening was to end the threat.

    this wasnt trained, this was instinct. Defense rests.

  16. these drones are carrying claymores or some variation of a 60-81mm morter shell.   

    Both of which have a 10% or higher kill range of between 35-50m  (38-55 yards), and that number goes up the closer it gets.

    40-50 yards is the farthest "normal" range for a 12 guage. 

    I mean I guess blasting it out of the sky at 20 yards giving you a 35% change of dying is better than the 95% chance if the fucker detonates on you.. but yeesh. that math sucks either way.

    As soon as I saw Howard out there looking like he wanted to be anywhere else, I knew I'd get pissed off. I turned it off to go give my kid a bath, turned it back on and he had given up like 5 runs. Dude needs to be relegated to bullpen catcher. 

     

    all 7 runs in the 7th were earned and attributed to Howard. He got 1 out... for a smoooooth 189.00 ERA for his appearance today.
