Concerned Citizen posted:Yeah, I think it's pretty key to not look at only the most profitable programs. For example, all athletics programs in Virginia at public universities operate at a loss. 12% of all fees, on average, go to athletics. Even VCU's Men's Basketball team, which is a successful program that regularly makes it to March Madness, operates at a substantial loss. And now they're building a $25 million practice facility to recruit more talent. Nationally, only 23 Division I schools have profitable athletics departments. The biggest problem with these programs is that they reinvest so much money back into the programs. Operating expenses are so high because it's an arms race to attract the best players and the best coaches. The coaches and program administrators are massively overpaid. Even if the systems pay for themselves at some schools, that's only going to last until they start losing and after that the costs of maintaining the system overwhelm the returns in a couple of years. Football programs pay for themselves in the same sense that every movie fails to turn a profit and every billionaire pays his taxes. Just because you can make numbers work on paper doesn't make those numbers reflect reality.

Three Olives posted:What is really amazing is seeing the power that Fox News has. Fiorina was nothing in the debate but Fox News declared her the clear winner, let her visit the big boy table during the debate and all of a sudden she is viable despite basically having nothing going for her and nothing policy wise that really sets her apart. Suffolk came out with an Iowa poll where she's at 7% which meshes with the PPP one putting her at 10%. FOX basically just invited her to the big boy's debate to be the anti-Hillary, but she's also the perfect anti-Trump. They'll get into it over which of them bankrupted the most companies and then that'll become a debate over which holes Fiorina is currently bleeding out of.

No, PPP always does stuff like that, and it's actually kind of useful as a control in order to put the other numbers you're getting back in context. We now know that 7% +- MoE that were polled have a functioning sense of humor.

For example, here's PPP in 2013 trying to figure out what or who are more popular than Congress.PPP posted:Now the news is not all bad for Congress. It's at least still more popular than serial killers (56/18 over Charles Manson), foreign enemies (51/22 over Syria, 49/28 over Vladimir Putin), and controversial celebrities (46/31 over Miley Cyrus, 42/33 over Honey Boo Boo, and 40/36 over Lindsey Lohan).

So far, every candidate except Jim Gilmore has qualified for the two CNN debates on September 16. The debates will be split between the top ten and the rest of the field, but unlike the Fox debates they'll be broadcast back-to-back.
