  1. okay they are lincoln park whoever that is the crowd was.... relieved when they finished
  2. genie is not going back in the bottle - we're staying at 12 or going to 16 - ccgs not going away top 4 ccg winners have to get a bye AND host their first game 5 through 16 could play an opening round - but that is 6 games producing 3 winners leaving 7 standing - derp therefore 5/6/7/8 also have to get a bye - but to make the top 4 'more valuable' 5/6/7/8 should 'host' at the indoor stadium equidistant to their opponent - the 'host' gets 80% of the tickets for 24 hours before their opponents can buy more than 20 proceed with quarter/semi bowl rotations from there - otherwise as posted 5 is the most valuable - miss your ccg - get an extra week of rest - and still get a home game?
  3. proposal: all p4 adopt a zero-tolerance fcs policy :: no fcs opponents at all 3-loss p4 teams can get in to a 16 if all p4 2-loss teams ranked 16th or higher are already in
  4. so he's fixing the holes..... okay then
  5. from someone that works at senior levels inside ticketmaster: the company contracted by fifa is https://www.secutix.com/ they have done euros and other tournaments but no one in the us ticket sale/resale/disti industry knows anything about them at all no one in the us ticket industry has any knowledge of secutix' prior presence in the us at all as in, installed on zero phones today in north america, 1 year out what could go wrong?
  6. sure you say that and when argentina roll in to the semi at the deathstar and the us is already out and the tickets are only 2k each for the lower bowl you will change your tune
  7. that depends on the type of load i know you guys up in iowa are in to some kinky shit but your point is taken and agreed teams who lose 3rd games to teams with sub-.500 league records shouldn't be in the top 16 anyway.... ESPECIALLY if they are playing an fcs scrimmage game they SHOULD be penalized for losing a 3rd game when one of their wins is fcs i just hope the "conference shot callers" (anchor bama creamsicle gatah uga) put an end to this fcs bullshit once and for all they should all be embarrassed for taking the purchased win not our standard not theirs either
  8. "I appreciate Mike's work in taking a holistic view of what changes need to be made so that we have a baseball program that meets our high standards." what the fuck does that even mean? i just read 15 definitions for and uses of the words 'holistic view' i can't find a way to use any of them to add color to or function as an adjective to the words "changes need to be made" that sentence is SiD fabricated gobbledygook - it's literally made-up bullshit alberts is a fucking moron maybe you found it that could be it
  9. snakey is wasting a grand opportunity "our schools that call the shots will force an embargo on fcs games on all of the other league members" "all the rest of you other leagues, what are you going to do for us?" ignore all of the other topics put the easiest one on the table and see what happens
  10. so you're saying if we did the same thing after game 2 or game 3 nothing would have happened..... right?
  11. we're going to find out real fast what the league intends for this series if florida is allowed to put oil's big 3 on their butts then it will be an even series and go 6 or 7 if not, oil in 5, with florida castrated and sacrificed for the canadian title
  12. at the end of game 1 every oilstain on the ice took a star down and pinned them league action? none did we play it the right way and not retaliate? yes but that's what we're up against there are 2 standards
  13. for avoidance of doubt, i assume the 25/26 allocation does not include benn at any number and only 5m of cap when upgrades are required is going to be more changes than "tweaks"
  14. plaintext4darkmode the “heated” situation regarding the SEC I guess we’re going to war,” said one Big 12 athletic director. At the center of this brewing battle is a memorandum of understanding that the 11-member CFP governing board — the 10 FBS conferences and Notre Dame — authorized last spring. The document grants format decision-making powers starting in 2026 to the SEC and Big Ten — a move to keep the two goliaths from separating to form their own playoff. According to most who have viewed the memorandum, the agreement grants the Big Ten and SEC control over the format but directs them to have “meaningful consultation” and collect “input” from the other conferences and TV partner, ESPN. Have they satisfied the agreement’s language to hold “meaningful consultation?” Some do not believe so and have sought legal counsel over the validity of the document. Other things that Dellenger is reporting? The new CFP model is a 5+11 model, which would award 5 auto bids for conference champions and 11 at-large bids, but no one wants this as long as the SEC stays at 8 conference games. The SEC coaches favor the 4-4-2-2-1+3 model (4 auto bids for SEC & Big Ten, 2 auto bids for Big 12 & ACC, 1 bid to the Group of Six and 3 at-large bids). The regulation of NIL by Deloitte sounds like a disaster (or lawsuit) waiting to happen: The officials from the Deloitte-run clearinghouse “NIL Go” — the centerpiece of the new enforcement entity, dubbed the “College Sports Commission” — is sharing data with coaches and athletic directors, including that 70% of past deals from booster collectives would have been denied. Deloitte also shared that about 80% of NIL deals with public companies were valued at less than $10,000 and 99% of those deals were valued at less than $100,000 — figures that suggest the clearinghouse threatens to significantly curtail the millions of dollars that collectives are distributing to athletes. 8w7A0dY.png CBS Sports’ John Talty on the frustration with reform regarding the transfer portal and the Power Four want to force the Big Ten and SEC agree to a 65% of the power on rule-making. Currently, the Power Four conferences are pushing for a weighted vote that would give them 65 percent of the power on rule-making committees. Even that amount, which would give the Power Four conferences significantly more power than they have now, still comes with risk. One high-ranking source said there are concerns that all it takes is one conference not voting with the others — or even ceasing to exist altogether if there’s further realignment and consolidation — to prevent approval for solutions. Sankey said Monday that he’d like to see that weighted vote go up to at leas 68 percent to avoid some of those issues. Multiple Big Ten and SEC sources have expressed extreme frustration to CBS Sports about being unable to push through changes because smaller conferences won’t support it. The transfer portal situation has been especially frustrating that the conferences that would seemingly benefit from not having a spring transfer portal window won’t go for it just because the SEC and others want it. The SEC’s representatives on those committees have made those arguments to no avail, according to sources. When you have conferences that didn’t hesitate to fully fund the $20.5 million cap and others that won’t spend a dollar on revenue sharing voting on the same issues, you can see how it can go awry quickly. The SEC’s success, in particular, has seemed to hurt its ability to make rule changes when smaller conferences question its motives. “It’s really hard to be playing in a championship setting and having to deal with it, but when I brought that up as a complaint or problem it was told to me, ‘There’s no crying from the yacht,'” Smart said. “If you’re going to play in these environments you have to be willing to do that. Now it’s we can’t do that.” Smart believes the implementation committee, which includes two athletic directors from each power conference, will ultimately have say over the transfer portal dinich
  15. gird your loins fifa announce dynamic pricing for next summer https://originalfootball.substack.com/p/the-price-of-passion-fifas-dynamic

  18. jim nill has done a spectacular job but he is 67 the core of this team is signed for several years do you tear it down with a new gm? another great year, another sad ending
  19. what's the story with this woman singing both anthems game after game after game after game
  20. 1. changing the day of an away game to give us a short week, working with the broadcast partner that fucked us before a hundred times and is disparaging us in this circumstance 2. a 3-hour change to the start of a homegame for the health and safety of 108,000 people when it has zero economic impact on our league and our current broadcast partner how ya'll are able to conflate and contrast these 2 entirely different circumstances is beyond me
  21. why would i want to do that? it's easier to bitch here and hope someone with agency or influence reads this on the other hand i do know 3 people who have had calls returned by cdc so maybe i will try that it's 3:58pm and 0u sux
