Sash! posted:Probably $0. $90 million barely registers on a budget to a major university. Penn State had total operating revenue of $107m and expenses of $88m in 2009-2010. So athletics generated $19m. $21m were to pay salaries of all the athletic department. Alright that makes sense. I just hated the professors, and I don't imagine I'm the only one who had them, who basically went off on a spiel during class about how much the football coach made and how it was a total disgrace to the university. Nevermind that enrollment was in a freefall and the 1st President of the college plagiarized to get his job and the next one was a close friend of Rod Blagojevitch, it was the Basketball program and the tier-2 football program that was to blame! Like it seemed like they had a personal vendetta against sports and couldn't believe that not everyone else hated them like they did. I also had really cool professors who liked sports and my parents are both professors and they like them too, but wasting class time and students money to spend half the class bitching that you aren't paid enough really rubbed me the wrong way.

quote:"My son and I were talking about him the other day. He is really good at turning around the insults of sneering and mean people in sports and he’s good at foiling their efforts to create destructive divisions among him and other players." This is somewhat true except he doesn't actually try to foil anybody he just is just oblivious and good-natured.

The Incredible Ed posted:TFF needs to band together and make starter jackets a thing again. 4th grade was rad. My parents used to work for Champion who used to do 90s College and NFL apparel. And they would tell me stories about how a strict Catholic high school was accidentally sent South Carolina Gamecocks Jerseys, and how Lou Holtz called my mother because the Notre Dame jerseys were the wrong color. The worst was the machine that put the logos on the clothing was for some reason set up by color of the team, well somehow the Atlanta alternate was set as just "Black" so this was around the time the Raiders were the bad boys of the NFL and demand for Raiders stuff was high so the machine printed just a poo poo ton of Falcons memorabilia that wouldn't sell and for awhile there wasn't a goddamn scrap of fabric with the Raiders logo in the whole store!

Holy poo poo: http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-10-most-confusing-things-about-football-to-outsider/ Those are certainly some funny observations!  Cracked is the same site that refused Febreeze's fan comics which were pretty clever and drawn well. Cracked paid money for this article.

"Suck it up dutchess." by BelizePats was a truly rare and amazing retort. I can't get it out of my head. Whatever shred of an argument you had is now forfeit because you were rightly called out as acting like a dutchess by some guy presumably in Belize. That moderator must now live out his life in shame.

All I know is the Rochester University Yellow Jackets will gently caress you up at Badminton. They have their own tournament to just cordially invite folks to come on up and get their rear end beat.

HarlanHell posted:To be fair she was a complete embarrassment. She couldn't even kick it 20 yards in the air. If you look at her form in the video you can tell that the injury is just a lame excuse. She was out there for her fifteen minutes nothing more. Its a real shame too because the first woman at the NFL combine should have been a milestone. I mostly feel sad for real female athletes who could of gone out there and not made a complete joke of the process. It took her like over 20 seconds to even get the ball on the tee, but what really was annoying was the self-promotion she was doing the whole time and the fact that she had soccer experience not football experience.

With all these posts with Uncle Cletus posting his racist/political poo poo that really doesn't have to do with football, I feel it is time to read something rather endearing from a rural source in a football post from another forum.  I can't do this man's self-written biography justice but suffice to say he describes himself as a "hard working everyman." Forget what the so-called experts are saying because this man is coming out with his own 13 bold predictions about the 2013 NFL season. Among some of the bolder predictions (with extra bold added for emphasis) quote:The New England Patriots will not win the AFC East. quote:The Cleveland Browns will win the AFC North. quote:Alex Smith will continue to impress and lead the Kansas City Chiefs back to the playoffs. quote:The Miami Dolphins will win the AFC East. If you don't love this dude then you will after reading this. quote:Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys will miss the playoffs yet again. Also RG3, Russell Wilson,Colin Kaepernick rule and "are the truth" EJ Manuel is a franchise QB and his team (the Texans) are going to gently caress up the Seahawks and win the superbowl. I hope every one of his predictions comes true. I hope that New England is caught in the middle of their gimmicky crap like trying to snap the ball in 2 seconds while all the refs backs are turned and that JJ Watt sniffs out the play and powerbombs Brady. I want to see Chud and Norm marching triumphantly into the sunset and climbing over the broken bodies of Steelers,Ravens, and Bengals players. I'd love it if the AFC West wasn't a poo poo show and instead the Chiefs just continued to hound and torment the Broncos at every turn and grind away at them. Finally when they inevitably choke I want the Cowboys not just embarrassed but exposed nationally as not America's team but a fraudulent version of a terrible Canadian basketball team. This man is a visionary who believes in a better football than even the football we watch. pasaluki fucked around with this message at 09:50 on Aug 9, 2013 |

After Adolphus Washington is arrested for bringing in a gun to an Ohio water park:quote:Just adds more creedence to my belief that all Silverbacks should be caged and the Bills Silverbacks especially! It needs to be written into their contract and explained to them it is for their own protection. Their accomodations or cages can be much more luxurious than the general silverback population cages. The Bills Silverback cages can be fitted out with elaborate tree swings and a grotto to simulate a Lagoon effect in the middle of the Jungle, pipe in loud rap music and jungle sounds in the background so they feel at home. Then supply them with all kinds of balls and toys and fur coats and feather hats to wear and ship in female silverbacks from the Gen Pop cage so they can play drug pimps while waiting for their Sunday release! Brandon can make buck charging the fans to come and watch them play in their lagoon and provide bananas and oranges to toss to them to make it more fan interactive. Admit it you all would race to get in line for that show and throw a couple of bananas and oranges like a good loyal fan! Just another revenue source for the Bills provided by the hardest working and most clever front office marketing huckster in the NFL! How do you think the NFLPA union is going to accept Russ newest marketing idea?
