What a dumb response

Correct. Big Eight turned into Big 12 when Texas, Texas Tech, Texas A&M and Baylor left the SWC to join the Big Eight. Remember the Southwest Conference? Also came apart over TV deals. The Athletic has a good article on this.

It looks like Barstool was causing Penn some regulatory hassles. For example, one of my favorite personalities is Barstool Big Cat. He comes on the local ESPN radio station regularly and is highly entertaining. Apparently, he is one of the main Barstool sports betting experts and his tongue-in-cheek named "Can't Lose Parlay" got them investigated by regulators in Massachusetts. But, I think PENN was mostly happy to be rid of Portnoy and all his controversy. Interestingly, it is PENN that is paying ESPN in this new partnership.

I feel inadequate.

Fox already tried with Fox Bet. They have just announced a few days ago that they are shutting it down.

Another way to think about it is these are the rules everyone else must abide by, so why not him?

Interesting question. Will ESPN push to have gambling lines on every event they have broadcast rights for? I think yes.

And your view on John Stamos is.....?

Was it a government definition? Or some other source? You specifically referenced shock at the government's definition.

You asked for the government's definition. I doubt there is a definition of extremism that does not include violence. It is the violence that makes it extreme, which I believe is part of the definition in that document.

I hearf he has applied for a trademark for "Twitter marks the spot"

Seems unfair if you ask me. The article says it will be live streamed on X. I assume that is so no one will see it? Does anyone know if DeSantis decided to run?

I always wondered about shingle replacement, too. My assumption is the sales person for the solar panels is not interested in what happens years down the line and will not offer information if not asked or will deflect if asked. The other issue I found out about recently is weight. I just finished building a house and was considering solar panels. The architect needed to know early in the process so that he could design the roof to handle the incremental weight. In talking to the builder he confirmed that no one thinks or cares about that in retrofit applications. Like all things home improvement, I assume you are swimming with the sharks on this stuff.

I think a lot of solar panels are sourced from China (not unlike the technology you used to type your response), but wind infrastructure comes from Denmark, Germany and the US. As for inefficiency, I am guessing that is very hard to agree on the right measure. What are the calculations you are referencing?

All penance suggestions should be in the realm of possible.

How do you get from "expand wind and solar power generation" to "sending billions to China, and increasing electric bills three or four times what they are now"?

I apologize in advance for this post, but... Instead of USC, UCLA, Washington or Oregon adding wrestling, is there a chance Maryland, Rutgers, Indiana, Illinois, or anyone else drops wrestling? Prior to the addition of four non-wrestling schools this probably would have been unheard of, but now that 22% of the Big Ten does not sponsor wrestling who would notice if it went to 28%? I will now accept suggestions for my penance.
