Hopefully you don’t mind Brad Berry sitting on your face! Woohoo!

TCoS!

I like the irony of self admitting snowflakes not being able to endure cold weather.

It’s all right there in the tea leaves.

that about sums it up from the beginning, it's the idea of a small vocal minority that the names are offensive. Along with woke white people.

For some reason I kept picturing Jennifer Garner while reading the article.

I'd rather have you in charge than have 6,000 categories each with one post each, as suggested above.

Reminds me of a house impeachment inquiry.

The Roughriders being from North Dakota and spending time in North Dakota...the original fake news.

I believe they’re just discussing if they want to sweep together after the game.

Have they thought of trying the on button?

The discussion was about scholarship athletes, and making the comparison of the total value of their scholarships broken down into $/hr. I questioned bison73's assertion that a student athlete is "on the clock 24/7" on road trips. He later clarified his point. When he was comparing student athletes pay to less than minimum wage, I made the statement about hourly employees not going on business trips. I did not realize I needed to repeat the comparison everyone here knew we were referring to about minimum wage, no experience type employees in my statement. I wrongly assumed most people here would be able to comprehend the conversation we were having. Apparently one slow person could not. No one was talking about consultants (because it makes no sense; student athletes are not free agents playing for different universities from week to week) until you got involved without regard to the subject matter being discussed. By not following along with the actual conversation being had, you were basically making the assertion consultancy is similar to a student athlete signing and committing to a university. To me, it's absurd. But if you would like to explain how professional consultancy is similar to 18 year olds signing on to play sports at universities in exchange for scholarships, I'll listen and keep an open mind.

I had no idea scholarship athletes were considered consultants. Thanks for clearing that up.

If you were paid hourly to sleep, then kudos to you. The original point (which has been lost thanks to resident bison troll slowhand picking out one sentence of mine and throwing this conversation off the rails), I was trying to making was I don't think it's fair to include every hour of the day spent on a road game trip when computing what a scholarship athlete's per hour "pay" amounts to. Here's the quote from bison73 I was originally responding to: On 1/20 at 10:37pm bison73 wrote "away games you're on the clock 24/7."
