  1. My issue is with ads that cover content. Ads that are within content do not cause a problem for me. Here is an example on my Surface running Chrome. It looks like I can click on "Go to topic listing" or "Next unread topic" at the bottom of the page, but because there is a transparent ad over the top, I cannot (see the feint line at the top edge of the previously clickable element). The Nike ad between post for me is not a problem. The Nike ad covering the bottom and the jtv ad covering content for me is a problem. On my Samsung S24+ running Chrome the ads cover even more of the content. There the ads will take up almost half the page. While I understand the need to sell ads to support a site that is free for the users, it has been my habit to not visit sites that have this type of ad experience.
  2. Thank you, @Husker_Du As for me, the ads are so prevelant that I cannot post using one of my phones. After clearing my cookies the site wants to know if I want to use Chrome or Tapatalk. But the choice buttons are covered by an ad so that they are not accessible. And the site is not accessible until I make a choice. Happy to give @BobDole some time to tweak.
  3. I was thinking about that, too. I will give it some time first.
  4. Go condescend somewhere else. If you have something to say, say it. But say it fast, I am this close to dropping this site due to the unbearable ad experience.
  5. Don't forget the time he must spend in the editing studio given the high quality of his IG posts.
  6. It could be more Jimmy-ish. I coulda said he wins three more. And then use his MFOR victory at the Soldier Salute as proof.
  7. AJ says he has three years of eligibility. I say, perhaps. But let's assume he has three years left. Does he win 3 more? 2? 1? None? As for me, I will say none. He has 3 matches in the last two and a half years, in which he looked like a blood round guy. No one gets better at wrestling by not wrestling. I think his window has closed.
  8. Amen. Especially when you see the confirmed numbers thrown around for football. It would be hard for me to believe there is much NIL budget at collectives for wrestling.
  9. Wait, Spencer is ducking high school kids? We need to revoke the Freakin'.
  10. Chance? Sure. Good chance? Not so sure.
  11. and an NCAA title and a Hodge Trophy
  12. How do you score the Mesenbrink match? Does PSU lose a team point for the still-beating heart meal display?
  13. One of their best in a long time.
  14. But where would the data come from?
  15. And did he win a national runner up at the CBU opening tri?
  16. Only if the Committee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement grants him an Olympic Redshirt for last season. Though it appears most of these cases are heard by their staff, rather than the full committee. From their meeting minutes: Review of cases decided from August 1, 2023, through March 31, 2024. The committee reviewed cases staff processed during the 2023-24 academic year. The committee noted the overall increase in cases being submitted since the 2020-21 academic year. Specifically, in each of the last two academic years, there has been over a 33% increase in total cases submitted. The committee specifically noted the 180% increase in season-of-competition waivers since the 2022-23 academic year. The committee noted that staff approves over 77% of submitted cases and half of the approved cases were decided as a flexible decision. Of the 42 cases appealed to the committee, the committee affirmed staff on 88% of cases. The committee noted staff’s decisions overwhelmingly align with the committee’s approach to waivers and student-athlete reinstatement cases.
  17. Only if we complain enough. @BobDole you're killing us.
  18. Just started today. It is brutal.
  19. What are you talking about. They are the same. Neither is playing football.
  20. with free transfer and NIL, they are all contract years
  21. Totally out of control. And yes, it is a new thing. It was not this way yesterday.
  22. Douchey Wall Street guys is definitely a thing, but the drugs element is way less of a thing than it used to be, certainly no more of a thing than on Main Street.
  23. Yeah, it was so extreme, such an over-reaction, so weird, and so public. Hard to go to your AD and argue for the guy. And forget about wasting precious NIL resources there.
