Cutting spending would be nice. Something I am sure you find abhorrent.

lol, really? Please expound on this.

Yesterday Mr. Mayfield sent out a tweet "thanking all the Cleveland fans". Does that sound like a QB who is comfortable with his future with the franchise?

Agreed. The passage of the 16th amendment was an act of greed and avarice.

Bingo.

No, but they must all have a similar modus operandi. What is it that according to you is making them want to try and "run the school"?

https://deadspin.com/baseball-is-back-but-the-dh-is-everywhere-and-that-s-1848642336 I'm not a huge baseball fan, but I am a purist when it comes to the game. This is a travesty, the abomination that is the DH should have stayed in the inferior American League.

So I take it you would not be the kind of Notre Dame alum/fan/booster to help fund an NIL Collective? You could make a return on your investment. BTW, here is what appears to be the most comprehensive list of current NIL Collectives I could find on the internet: https://businessofcollegesports.com/tracker-university-specific-nil-collectives

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-senate-approves-bill-that-would-make-daylight-savings-time-permanent-2023-2022-03-15/ While I agree we should stop changing clocks twice a year, IMHO we should stay on standard time, not daylight savings time. Staying on DST would mean here in Indiana during the winter months sunrise would not be until 9-9:30am. As a "morning person" this would really stink. And it stays light enough in the summer months without DST.

So who exactly are these parents who are "trying to run the school?"

If the cost to repair a high school football field is that prohibitive then don't host the game. It is that simple. Or maybe host a bake sale or spaghetti dinner night where all the proceeds to go into the football field repair fund.

Part of the challenge and character of the game. You have to remember the origins of football were in rugby, which was designed to be a simulation of war. The battlefield, aka, the football field, could be a nice mowed surface or pockmarked mudhole. Helps coaching staffs and players to be prepared. Unfortunately there are those who want to eliminate any variable they can from the game, and the growth of artificial turf is one of the results.

It's not that hard.

Thank you. So how many NIL Collectives have formed at Notre Dame?

Can you please elaborate on a couple of those paths?

So "athletic excellence" is now part of most universities' mission statement?

Hmm, I have known a number of homeschooled children that were intelligent, socially adjusted, and were able to get admitted to respected colleges and universities. Just because you would be to lazy to homeschool doesn't mean others are. And why shouldn't parents have some control over their children's education?

Record-breaking NIL contract will have the NCAA pocket-watching again: https://deadspin.com/record-breaking-nil-contract-will-have-the-ncaa-pocket-1848648039

Looks to be true, according the the AP: https://apnews.com/article/super-bowl-tampa-bay-buccaneers-tom-brady-nfl-sports-f6d646a9109b591183836fbf593c0f2b Probably got tired of fielding calls from most every other NFL franchise wanting him to play for them.

So the bookie down the street operating out of his garage, or the big weekly poker game in Steve's basement, those are illegal. Got it.

Congrats to the Hoosiers for all but sealing at least an at-large bid in the big dance with a 65-63 win over Illinois.
