  1. I agree....but I also feel it's inevitable. I would add, the reasoning used is a good one. If the NCAA is not allowed to enforce their own rules regarding gambling, then they are basically on life support.
  2. One question is how hard will the SECSPN Network try to keep them from doing this? Once one conference does it, how quickly will others follow?
  3. For those of us in the football world, that is a pace of 5.05 seconds for the 40. And there are 44 40s in a mile.
  4. At a pace of 16.2 miles per hour……incredible.
  5. Good God you are ridiculous with this passive BS.....stop putting words into my comments that are not there. I am VERY intentional about the words I use, and did not in any way shape or form imply such thing. And keep other politics off this part of the site.
  6. That you willingly fail to understand anything regarding the topic and just stick to your own beliefs, and the bigotry inherent in those beliefs and the current alternatives is your problem.
  7. That's a lot of money
  8. Entertaining segment to listen to.
  9. Update on Sorsby
  10. Just leaving this here for more evidence.
  11. I have a feeling this is much more wide spread than any of the pro league commissioners care to know. As it has been said often, the leagues and the TV networks all let the gambling sites get in the front door.
  12. I cannot find this on twitter, but hopefully you don't need a facebook profile to watch this. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/18vkymLgwM/
  13. Sorsby getting a glimpse into his future….one that will likely be without him ever playing pro football.
  14. So many lies…and I don’t give a rat’s behind if you think I went too far “chief”. You are touting a system that would clearly discriminate against a significant portion of our population. You even praised a charter school in North Carolina….completely tax payer funded, that only allowed certain christians to be admitted. The term for that kind of discrimination is called bigotry…..bigot. Stop with the pathetic status quo BS. Never once have I said such a thing. But I am done with this. You are not worth this much time. This is why there is no conversation going on in your forum. You are an absolutist. You are completely right and everyone else is wrong.
  15. Liar……You have not done a thing to address any of my points. Free markets would eliminate poor performing students, as well as lower functioning special ed students who are forced by law into regular classes as well as testing, including the SAT now. then what? More of them in those charity schools you think are an effective solution? You have never countered those points. As I have been saying for those 16 years, I have never claimed to alone know how to fix education….another lie from you. But I certainly know what would work and what has not worked. But I will take my experience in the classroom any day over your ignorant stance on what needs to be done. If you minimize, ignore, or simply cannot see the obvious and countless pitfalls by having just a for profit system with some sort of charitable system, then you are being willfully ignorant and bigoted. But I also know you are ok with being those things.
  16. Playing the victim again….no, the fact is that I have tried for close to 16 years now on this forum to have this conversation. I have explained in detail each point you think you are right about and the flaws in those points. The fact is you do not care about other people, especially young people at risk. You are just not worth the time.
  17. So much willful ignorance in one post. Not even worth the time going through it.
  18. Minimal at best.......laughable. Over 16% of children in Indiana live in poverty. That is over 250,000 young people, and someone really believes charitable organizations could effectively fund that. So delusional. The lack of vision in that logic is truly pathetic. Entire communities would be left without any type of school....then what? One way or another taxpayer dollars will be needed for whatever happens to them.
  19. There are different angles of this that are even funnier.
  20. I guess one could say these were dick moves.
  21. And their last defeat only cost them $1. Interesting footnote. Kessler represented the NFL in the case against Maurice Clarett. He is basically trying to reverse the same rule he argued for to keep Clarett out.
  22. This is directly from the CBA and it will be what sinks his case From the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement, Article 6: "If a player who was not eligible for the Draft in any League Year becomes eligible after the date of the Draft, he will be eligible to be selected in a Supplemental Draft, *if the League elects to conduct such a Draft*…”
  23. Sorsby is getting bad legal advice through all of this. His attorney’s statement shows that pretty clearly. You re an idiot if you were thinking there was not going to be any review of that application.
  24. The Marlins are stepping up to help that good doggie.
