  1. We saw all we had to with the media the other day when they got mad at Donald for telling governors to "try to get ventilators yourselves" when the full quote included that they had the support of the Federal government but going directly to sellers as a State is likely faster than going through the Feds. Newsom and Cuomo have both had good things to say about the Federal response. If Donald tried to take big national lockdown action the same people who are complaining about him not taking that action now would be calling him a tyrant (literally Hitler) and not leaving any discretion to state and local leaders. It's not difficult to figure out a lot of these people only have jobs/influence if they are lamenting about The Donald. Same goes for some right leaning folks whenever a Democrat is in charge of running things. You wont find me complaining anytime the Feds give some room to the States to handle things their own way. Usually that's the best way to find what is working and what isn't anyway. New York City and Mandan should probably be handling this in different manners. Rant over. Off my soapbox.
  2. It's not uncommon for a President to have less than 50% of the vote lol, you know that right? Would be interested to see if a loser ever got over 50% of the vote though.
  3. The guy I share my "apartment" with is from Wuhan.
  4. I was just thinking how funny it was that any high school seniors basically got the last couple months of smooth sailing cancelled. College seniors....no, unless they are athletes. Feel a little bit sad for them.
  5. Didnt know the state of ND was filled with such die hard college basketball fans. Wouldn't know from looking at either schools' attendance average lmao.
  6. Outside of grand forks county... probs
  7. LSU lost some linebackers to the draft. Of the many coaches who followed him on twitter, he only followed a few back. Like 3 from LSU. Seems reasonable to believe they are the frontrunners.
  8. I'm assuming he's going to a high level P5. Certainly not Wyoming.
  9. They got a tough job no doubt
  10. I dont think they really have agendas. Teams at home generally get a few calls though I think? I dont know enough about basketball to get into that.
  11. Samuelson is a liability. Idk why they let him get stuck on the only dude UND has who can create on his own. Wouldn't call the other guys weak. After all.. they've got a pretty good track record against everyone in the conference other than SDSU. Such is life I guess.
  12. He said the officiating has been bad both ways bud.
  13. I live in a huge metro for school so...literally every day sucks lmao
  14. Class B score table cant run a shot clock properly?
  15. And like the 8th time they've played him lmao
  16. Lmao at the rebraca guy on that "dunk" I'm assuming he isnt American. Any red blooded man here would have walked off the court after that and moved to a cabin in the woods.
  17. If pitching is solid and they dont get stuck playing New York, anything is possible.
  18. President of a very large organization... I expect he is probably paid what they think he is worth. Pretty thankless job, nobody likes the NCAA itself lmao
  19. If you are good enough to skip college to play professionally then there will be a team that wants you. This isn't hard to understand guys...
  20. If you are good enough to be above going to college to play, then Europe is 10000% viable lmao what are you talking about? Is European basketball suddenly super exclusive? Every sport has established some sort of minor league or second tier version of itself at some point and guess what.... nobody watches it.
  21. Basketball does have a viable alternative and has for decades. It's called overseas leagues. I don't see how minor league basketball or football would negatively impact college sports. I am not sure minor leagues are financially viable anyway.
  22. We had lawyers from a big firm come and discuss these topics to us at my law school. The vibe they were giving off was that it is unlikely to be "free market" anytime soon.
  23. Might be a little different since football would be the one giving up titles now... personally, I think it's about money. It's very expensive to play at that level.
  24. NDSU is stuck in an awkward spot. I dont see how they can move up really. Lots of money required. Would be neat to see though. Had North and South Dakota done the smart move and just had one major public school each I think both would be in the FBS and who knows...maybe P5.
  25. I dont think he was there for Jensen, not that it matters.
