    MLB: So, the “Cleveland Guardians”…

    They should've went all in....."Guardians of the Cuyahoga"......Chris Pratt could come in and learn to play first base since he couldn't throw anymore, and be all witty/clever while his dead mom provides a stellar soundtrack.

    Why Now?

    Can't even remember where I read this in the past 3 days, but someone estimated the payouts to every SEC school after the addition of OU and Texas at $80 million per year. In 2018, 2019, and 2020, Big 12 payout was around $37-38 million each year. If the long term plan is to lure Ohio State...

    The Big 12 AD meeting Thursday night

    Agreed. The next time we hear from JP should be when the path forward is crystal clear and he's put us in the best position possible.

    The Big 12 AD meeting Thursday night

    In that scenario, do the math: SEC + OU + Texas=16 teams ACC + Notre Dame + West Virginia=16 teams Pac-12 would need 4 Big 10 would need 2 7 teams left in the ruins of the Big 12, plus any other schools that may be attractive for any number of reasons (BYU/Cincinnati/UCF/Boise St/UNLV) for 6...

    Agreed....TCU and Baylor would be looking at Conference USA or the AAC....I'd feel bad for TCU.

    So what's the best case medium term scenario for ISU right now? IMO it's not an intact Big 12 with Texas and OU still in the league; just going to hold the conference hostage again in 5 years. Get a pile of money out of Texas/OU for leaving and a Big 10 invite? I say medium term because their...

    COLUMN: What happens to Iowa State if the Big 12 implodes?

    Once enough of the right football programs realize that the NCAA and its regulations are no longer in their best interest or even necessary, they'll just run their own league and make their own rules.

    Agreed, the money is too good....but there is one way that it could happen; if the 13 other schools in your conference kept you in the dark on purpose while they were courting the batshit crazy ex-conference mate that you ran away from years ago and still can't stand.

    Report: OU & Texas reach out to join SEC

    If that's the case, Big 12 needs to see if A&M wants to come back.....entire leadership of a conference member left out of the conversation for 6 months? And now they are supposed to welcome the reason they left for the SEC in the first place? Ask them, Missouri, Arkansas, Nebraska, and...

    Do I really have to explain the concept of quality to you? You can make money money off of less product if people are willing to pay more for the product because it's better.....how many Ford Fusions would a dealer have to sell to equal 1 Porsche?

    If they can get $40 from 1 million customers, or $5 from 6 million customers, which would a business chose? SEC doesn't give two ***** about overall health of college football; they care about making as much money as possible off of their brand. Improve the brand, improve the bottom line.

    I agree. NIL has essentially rendered the NCAA obsolete when it comes to football....hell they don't even run the championship now. Imagine you are an AD at Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Florida....and see that affiliation with the NCAA and it's rules no longer have to apply....why wouldn't you, at...

    Our family found out the hard way that medical helicopter costs aren't covered by healthcare insurance........~$45k for a half hour flight. Insurance companies will cover anything they think they can turn a profit on, and base everything on that factor alone.
