The Sicatoka

Well played.

It'd be nice to not see 2-0 other guys like the last couple games.

In a two-game series: If you get a W and an OTW you won 1.55 games that weekend. If you get a W and an OTL you won 1.45 games that weekend.

I'm saying, how would they give anything but profits? They have to pay suppliers, cover overhead, and make payroll. Now what their overhead is could get the ol' stink-eye. (Are they paying "heat" or "floor space" to REA?)

So was the other team, yet you didn't and they did.

Well, um, ... yeah. After they pay suppliers for goods and then sell the goods and pay their employees ... The question should be is the Shop paying for space/utilities to REA.

Change normally comes from the very top or the very bottom.

Well that came out of the Blue Wilderness.

Likely. Why? March Madness. If you don't let the P5 dominate college football they could break off entirely and go their own way. They'd take football ... and the high number of eyeballs (TV dollars) that is March Madness. The Gonzagas and Marquettes and DePauls of the world (no FB) would be completely screwed thus they'll put up with the SEC shoving around NCAA football.

Let's hope we've learned our lesson and are ready this time when change comes, presents itself, and happens with or without us.

And the contract renegotiations (in 2025, for television and FBS playoffs) are screaming towards us.

That opens all the angles you mention: It becomes pricing and overhead and reporting games.

Anthony Moe-Tucker's Twitter bio-blast: "5’11 215lb RB/LB/dt/de #8 ranked MN ATH 4.58 40. #2 ranked 220 wrestler class 2A. Kasson Mantorville High School"

I'm a tad confused ... NDSU plays say 8 home FB game at 20k tix per --> 160k UND plays say 20 home MIH game at 12k tix per --> 240k With that UND lead in primary gate sports, how is NDSU claiming more tix sold? Is NDSU really selling that many more hoop stubs? Really?

Vade cum Deo.

Needed a name -- thought is was Kuksa; it was Arnell.

In Fargodome, probably a decade ago by now, a UND safety was hit in the back of the legs by an NDSU player unnecessarily. It was a pure blind clip. It ended a career. Help me out with a name, and better, the video showing the iffy hit.

USU: Total implosion after 1st quarter (UND lost 2nd, 3rd, 4th qtrs by 41-3) NDSU: the fourth down call (could've said general clock management) SIU: No real alternative as FG kicker? Really? There's a backup at every other position. Western: No clue it was 4th not 1st down after Otis run at end of 1st half with seconds left inside the 10 MoiSt: Play calling when up 11 and six to play

Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.

That's why I asked if the vax-fired WasSU coach had a fully guaranteed contract ... including if he took another job after termination.

The < lost in transmission > you say.

My problem with 3x3: Does basketball go 3x3 in OT? In hoop 3x3 is considered a completely different game. Why are we playing a different game to decide the outcome of the first?

You can't see Judd Caulfield scored 18:10 into the first in this? https://fightinghawks.com/sports/mens-ice-hockey/stats/2021-22/penn-state/boxscore/12179

My head went to 6-2 (L to USU and NDSU). I say USU because of their WR speed and NDSU because I believe their staff went hyper-conservative on offense when they saw their defense had control of the game (see: ten points) and didn't want or need to put much on film for their future opponents. Then again, a Saban staff might have found a way to grab one of those two games.

I hate having to say it.
