  1. Lulz. I'm sure it will all work out, and costs wont spiral out of control, because obviously AD's will be every bit as disciplined in an arms race as pro sports GMs. It may work out at Texas, because of our revenue generation and CDC being an elite AD, but coming up with enough coin to pay these players will fuck over a lot of schools. And if they cant come up with the money, it will fall back on the collectives and we're back to the same place except with a greater tie in between schools and collectives. NIL as implemented today is a complete fucking joke, and I see nothing that indicates the coming years will be any better. Tennessee jacking up fees 10% is just the start. At least the pros dont let you switch teams every year, and have some semblance of a salary cap.
  2. That certainly explains why the head coach is on the phone explaining what payments will and will not be made.
  3. Why would UNLV be paying anything? I thought NIL could not come from a university?
  4. I bought a stonk and calls on a company called Poet Technologies months ago. Calls were expiring in Oct, so I had a set sell order when they doubled my price. It hit yesterday and sold in the morning. If I still held them, my 100% gain would be a 200% gain. Still no real revenue, but they are announcing a ton of "design wins" Just holding shares. Long term leaps are still fairly cheap, so I will wait for the recent surge to fall back down, and probably buy some Jan 27 calls. This one is as stonky as they get.
  5. I think Glacier NP might be my favorite place in the country. Back to back years Ive hit it up in late sept after the crowds are largely gone. Last year it was snowing/sleeting over logan pass on Going to the sun road. Today was 70 degrees. VID_20240924_161024.mp4 Staying in a VRBO cabin outside of Bigfork on Echo Lake. Like the lake is 30 feet from my balcony. About $150/night after all fees and shit. About a 50 minute drive to the west entrance. But even the drives up here are worth it.
  6. Fuck that clown. They can Parkinson's his ass in prison. He's been a dumb piece of shit his whole life. Oh, but sure could play football....
  7. That's debatable
  8. shitcanning a first time head coach 3 games into his career seems aggressive even for Tepper.
  9. I got a combined 1 pt out of Andrews/Shaheed/Fairbairn and somehow still eeked out a win (thanks to Allen and K Williams). but I got stomped in my other league by putting up a whopping 70 pts. I thought Stroud was gonna be a difference maker, lulz.
  10. I'd take Daniels over Trevor Lawrence right now. Factor in he's 3 games into his rookie contract and Lawrence is three games into his 5 year/$255M contract, and its a f'n no brainer.
  11. It would explain his passion for meat
  12. I was curious as well. This year there will be 4 weeks with two MNF games. It made some sense when the games are staggered by 2-3 hours, but this year they always start about 1 hour apart. Who the fuck knows why they thought that was a good idea. I'm sure it translates to more money, but I doubt the total audience is that much greater.
  13. These NFL celebrations are so f'n ridiculous. Hamlin just had a pick of Lawrence with a return to the ~40 yard line, and next thing you know there were like 15 Bills posing in the endzone like they just won the game. Edit- I just backed up to the play and there were 17 bills in the end zone celebrating a pick. So 6 guys came off the bench to celebrate. Fuck that and get off my lawn.
  14. Its impressive that they have tied the commerce website directly to real time inventory, and it looks like stock levels are getting dangerously low. Act fast or Trump wont be able to take your rube money.
  15. I have no excuses. I put my fate in the hands of a f'n dumbass sooner. Fuck
  16. Sitting at an outdoor bar in MT. Didn't think I could talk the bartender into this,but here I am And yeah....it's 60 degrees at 7pm
  17. I'd rather hear mr. brownstone Hey guys...you won't believe how low my sack hangs.
  18. That brings Rhule's record against ranked teams at Nebraska to 0-4. After going 0-11 at Baylor, and 2-5 at Temple. Most overrated coach in cfb.
  19. That's like 1/3 of present day Bert
  20. Not for me....fuck Nebraska.
  21. So I made it up to Teddy Roosevelt NP and it's pretty awesome. But it is in the middle of fucking nowhere. Now I'm sitting in a bar in Dickinson ND. About 45 oil patch dudes eating steak and drinking, and like 4 chicks who won't pay for a drink all night. Pretty funny scene actually.
  22. That's just the dollup of Trump's shit on the tip of Sean O'Brien's nose
