The moment it becomes minor league football the shine is removed. Forever. And they know it.

Which is why, once again, there should be death to the NCAA. Adopt the Euro sports academy model.

Those higher education admin salaries aren't going to pay themselves. Athletics departments are an effect, not a cause.

The difference between Russia and USA steroids is the same as the economy: In Russia, everything in a person's day-to-day life is state-mandated. In America, everything in a person's day-to-day life is mandated by privatized companies. Both have athletes are that running hot. It's just a difference of how they arrive at the same endpoint. I previously used the Nike Oregon Project as an example. Sure, it wasn't state mandated but if you were anyone who wanted to be someone in track & field or distance running then you were at NOP and if they told you to put something in your body then you did it no questions asked. Just a difference of the mechanisms of capitalism versus authoritarian socialism.

Back when men were men and people actually attended tournaments like Farrell to knock others out and didn’t withdraw if they were sent to the consis.

Ummmm... how does your wife know how big NHS's is?

@BobDole plz halp

Nothing creates comradery like a week of sprawl drills

At least your company is not cheap and doesn't force you into PowerBI or Domo. Or SAS if you're an ancient actuary...

I like to think of it like the Righteous Gemstones: Brooks is Eli and AJ is Baby Billy. Both are full of shit and will end up on infomercials.

Russia out, AINal in

He's had 23 years to figure that out and the only thing he learned was a head pinch. He has always been dependent upon being bigger and stronger than his opponents but now that everyone is an adult the field has caught up. Having the largest neck and skull only goes so far. I stand by my opinion that he wouldn't finish higher than 8th and may likely not place if he switched to FS.

I don't write him off for the lack of FS exposure. I write him off because Parris, Hendrickson, Davison, and Kerkvliet are grown-ass men now and would run a chugga chugga choo choo train double through the big boy. Stalling is not allowed in FS like it is in folk.

If he switches to freestyle then he would just be Dom Bradley 2.0 so he should stick with greco and very seriously consider training outside of the US.

So hear me out on this… if you give asterisk and extrapolate the last 5/10/15/20 years on top of the all time result wouldn’t that deliver a desired result from the recent results populus? It’s going to help some programs (such as SDSU and Rutgers and maybe ND), while also heavily devestating historical programs that have recently dipped (Oklahoma as a potential example). But it delivers the recency bias that the inevitable 57 pages of homer posts will ask for. It’s almost like you expect people to *read* for the me-now internet slurpers

The fragmentation won't be that bad so not sure how you would end up overbalkanizing? You're describing a limited scenario for anything 16 seed and under. My shocking hypothesis is that that Cael*/ PSU run will throw out the weirdest curve.

What top 15 team do you think will outperform their projected preseason point total the most +%? Illinois or NC State. Obviously NC State will finish higher, but you are asking +%. Both will narrowly edge out tOSU according to your criteria. What top 15 team do you think will underperform their projected preseason point total the most -%? Mizzou will narrowly edge out Oklahoma who has no right being ranked in the top 15

Weird way to spell "bribe Thomas Bach" but okay See above.

The real team race is the runner-up trophy everyone chased along the way.

Texas and Silicon Valley + NorCal are 100% interchangeable if you are comfortable swapping Patagonia vests and cowboy cosplay.

Disavow if true.

It was a whole human more than "just" 60 pounds. He said he lost 200 and was still 15 over when they pulled the plug. You do the math...
