  1. splain me how domer's 50 million nbc deal split 18 ways is worth it to the b1g or sec? domer is going to want a full share PLUS 50% of their incremental add they are going to have to feel pain in the form of a sec/b1g boycott by the 11 teams cancelling their current contracts and waterboarding nbc this presser is going to be goald
  2. for the good of the game so we can get on with the expansion, i hope you are right, it's where they belong, and they could balance the add with syracuse, or drop rutgers or corn
  3. that is 100% aggy delusion of agency you will give us this, and you will not have that, we will let you do this, we will not let you do that after what just happened on sunday, and with the disclosure yesterday of this "top 12 MOU", how can these fuckwads believe for a second that the b1g and sec, the leagues and the the teams, how any of them want anything to do with domer, much less expand and broaden the tentacles of their special rules rights and privileges?
  4. 1000% of the b1g people i know say the b1g will never take domer - the b1g tried twice before 1950 - domer said no twice it's the opposite of coveting domer - the b1g loathes them
  5. hicks ignored the mls dallas franchise opportunity and made all of us involved in the early days very sad then the hunts bought it and made it a tax shelter that would have been the end of the tragedy until hick's 'purchase' of pool which has turned out to be the worst global soccer investment by a us citizen to date hicks and gillett took over liverpool using a leveraged buyout that saddled the club with £472.5 million in debt that almost put pool in to administration the protests were large, loud, and ugly the slogan used by the supporters was "here before you, here after you, here despite you" thank you, tom for the '99 stanley cup and that's all i have to say about that
  6. OR to which i would add: "if aggy runs out of time at home against miami, and miami loses to ohio state by less than 25, then aggy beat Texas" texags will produce some flavor of copium previously undiscovered by science
  7. that's a no-win proposition for them - they get nothing from crushing them byu are fcs-terrible fraud-tastic another half-dozen or so bowl opt-outs and we are in business on the bowl season bonfire burn it down
  8. it won't cost a dime surprise nuclear first strike declaration of sovereign immunity terms: get back to us when you have joined a conference; fbs games scheduled against you will be invisible in all stats, and those games will be considered exhibitions de-platformed erased free
  9. their AD's statements are tripling down in the wrong direction the pope needs to give them some religion and make a proclamation of capitulation: the b1g will take domer or else, and get the orange man to sign off on it let it be written and done
  10. and we played 0u for 96 years before joining the same conference, clemson/cock, uga/wreck, there are plenty of "just as important" long-term non-conference games DOMER ARE NOT SPECIAL and it's time to take the training wheels off - fucking wage war on their independence or kick them the fuck out of college football - go join the cfl
  11. Andrea AdelsonDec 7, 2025, 03:36 PM ET Close ACC reporter. Joined ESPN.com in 2010. Graduate of the University of Florida. Notre Dame athletic director Pete Bevacqua told ESPN that the program is in utter disbelief and shock after being left out of the 12-team College Football Playoff on Sunday. As a result, the Fighting Irish said the team has made the decision to not participate in a bowl game this season. "As a team, we've decided to withdraw our name from consideration for a bowl game following the 2025 season," said a statement credited to the 2025 Notre Dame Football Team. "We appreciate all the support from our families and fans, and we're hoping to bring the 12th national title to South Bend in 2026." The Irish had been ranked in the top 10 of every CFP rankings release until Sunday, when they were placed No. 11 and were the first team out. Miami, which beat Notre Dame in Week 1, moved ahead of the Irish in the final rankings to take the final at-large berth. Bevacqua expressed frustration with the entire process, telling ESPN's Jen Lada that the team felt as if it had the rug pulled out from under them, in part because they believed they were well situated to make the field because of where it had been previously ranked. In the first CFP rankings release on Nov. 4, Notre Dame was No. 10 and Miami was No. 18. The Irish moved up to No. 9 for a few weeks before dropping back to No. 10 last week. Miami had slowly moved up the rankings and was No. 12 last week. Bevacqua told ESPN that any rankings ahead of the final ones are a "farce and total waste of time." Adding to the confusion for Notre Dame was that neither they nor Miami played this weekend. CFP selection committee chair Hunter Yurachek said Miami's 27-24 head-to-head victory against Notre Dame on Aug. 31 wasn't a deciding factor until the Hurricanes jumped BYU in the CFP rankings and were evaluated side-by-side with the Irish. Yurachek also said he encouraged committee members on Saturday night to go back and watch the Notre Dame-Miami game from Labor Day weekend. "Once we moved Miami ahead of BYU, then we had that side-by-side comparison that everybody had been hungering for," Yurachek said. "You look at those two teams on paper, and they are almost equal in their schedule strength, their common opponents, the results against common opponents. "But the one metric we had to fall back on, again, was the head to head." Notre Dame and Miami finished with the same 10-2 records and had similar results against common opponents. As part of a memorandum of understanding signed last year that guarantees that the field will have at least 12 teams in 2026 and beyond, Notre Dame would be guaranteed a spot if it finishes in the top 12 starting next year. By not making it this year, Notre Dame lost out on a $4 million payday for just making the field. All 12 schools that make the CFP receive that amount, but the difference is that the Fighting Irish, as an independent, doesn't have to split it with conference members. In addition, under a deal agreed to in March, there will be guaranteed CFP spots for the conference champions from the ACC, Big Ten, SEC and Big 12 and the highest-ranked Group of 5 champion, sources told ESPN. If that had been in place for this season, ACC champion Duke would have made the field and Sun Belt champ James Madison, a second Group of 5 representative, would have been left out. Alabama pushed past Notre Dame last week to No. 9 and did not drop after losing 28-7 in the the SEC championship game to Georgia, staying in the 12-team field. "Their strength of schedule was the highest in the top 11, and felt like in spite of their performance yesterday in the conference championship, they deserve to stay within that nine spot," Yurachek said. ESPN's Heather Dinich contributed to this report.
  12. after standing down midweek it would be unlike cdc to do anything right now while the iron is hot as i posted elsewhere there are a dozen-odd sec/b1g teams with current domer contracts and the best move, the right move, would be a surprise attack where all of the schools, without consultation with their conferences, launch a nuclear first strike in a combined press release announcing the cancellation of all of the contracts effective immediately, with no announced terms of contract restoration, and no mention whatsoever of domer's celebration of special-ness de-platform domer
  13. no shit who fucking signed this "MOU" ?????? it reeks of aggy declaring our first game back would be at pyle a year before the schedule was announced for this year they are just declaring it to be so, publishing their terms of reality which everyone will abide because THEY ARE FUCKING SPECIAL it is time to wage war on the golden calf
  14. you really think freeman made this decision? the xtweet makes it crystal it came down from above.... "as a team"..... "thank our families"...... that's madison-avenue-crafted spin the seniors were fired by text at 9am.... the way the rest of corporate america works now
  15. who is going to have the balls to fine domer for holding practice whenever the fuck they want?
