  1. I wish I could say I was surprised at how fast the discourse turned to having football is the only thing stopping many of the players from turning to lives of crime, but here we are.
  2. Hopefully we can get to the point where everyone can recognize the fucked up structure of college football is the biggest roadblock towards moving ahead at this point. Hopefully it doesn't get replaced with something just as fucked up, like when the Red's replaced the Tsar's unitary monarchy.
  3. With the sudden manifestation of this right before the season started, there was surely nothing that could have been done.
  4. Or they could do what baseball did and seriously shorten the draft and create a free agent free for all for the rest
  5. Just think if the there was some sort of organization representing the players, the schools would have someone to bargain with towards a solution instead of running progressively dumber options up a flag pole to see who salutes
  6. Also at what point are we going to start seeing draconian budget cuts at the state and local level? The right wants to scream about defunding the police, but the economy is going to do that well before the left does.
  7. They’ve already been talking about expecting to roll into Greek letters for storm names
  8. For my pure local entertainment, that should be the opener, Texas wins and then curtains
  9. Pre-allocated disaster relief funds, so if it a Hurricane squares up on someone, the money’s already spent
  10. My Trumpy co-worker just butchered saying cognitive while trying to make fun of Biden.
  11. I’m shocked a dude from Rozel Kansas allegedly used a racial slur with a dude from Pittsburg Kansas
  12. Franco is probably rolling over in his recently relocated grave.
  13. The court case on a labor strike by “amateurs” would be fascinating.
  14. Except for schools that need revenue to service debt on CapEx.
  15. Social justice stuff doesn’t bother me in the least , and I could also give a fuck if the cash stops raining on coaches and administrators too.
  16. At some point you’d think that going to an intramural and club sport model would serve the students of the university better rather than running two sports to fund other sports, which are made more expensive to run by being tied to those two sports.
  17. I don’t think fucking around and finding out with the youths is going to be a great idea on the tiktok front
  18. I can’t post anything here without sounding like a humblebrag including this.
  19. So one of my co-workers likely contracted it while partying at Nebraska’s Big Rodeo in Burwell. The main surprise is that it took him this long to get it as he has not been cautious at all. Luckily for me he has been remote since May.
  20. If you remember when everyone got Covid-19 in packing plants and meat prices got all fucky, remember that all those meat packing plant workers spent a lot of time shoulder to shoulder in sealed climate controlled facilities. Schools might not be as cold inside but there’s a lot of similarities in the amount of human contact.
  21. I say this as someone who grew up in, and works extensively with rural Americans, it’s because they’ve had smoke blown up their asses their whole lives that being rural is being a purer American than anyone else, and thus stuff doesn’t apply to them.
  22. Grade School kids will get good and fucked up too if they teacher dies from something that was spread in their classroom too.
  23. I did see where NASCAR is looking at calling off their scheduled Sunday race at TMS now, with a decision by Tuesday.
