  1. Yet, they signed. That’s why I doubt many will leave. Equally bad are the agents. They had to know about this and still let their “clients” sign there. Sounds like a violation of fiduciary responsibilities. Maybe they all knew and there’s a handshake agreement for the next hc?
  2. And folks want to dump sark because of the nfl…😂
  3. Give it time. It’d be great if I’m wrong. What was the usfl? Wealthy guys trying to buy the best players and it was a farce. Baseketball was mostly supposed to be funny. Pricing correctly? Rarely but let’s leave it there. Appreciate the thoughtful reply.
  4. Nothing is automatically predatory. It’s always the human running it. Ask ufc fighters how they feel. What other company in the US is authentically competitive with the ufc? Kinda my point but I don’t want a Bobby Ban so I’m muting myself.
  5. lol. I get what you’re saying but the problem is that this isn’t something one can just say to each their own. We are all affected by things like this independent of our opinion of it. Companies thrive when we look away. Okay okay. I’ll stop. You caught me at a tough time of the year when earnings start coming out and company profits are sky high while their workers struggle for basic needs and we as consumers pay higher prices for lesser products. Be well!
  6. Do a little research. It isn’t a trope. You may be cool with it but objectively it only benefits the PE company. Kills small businesses, has been key with monopolies which results in the centralization of power for a very few. No one should want a few holding the power and money. That’s how oligarchies and fascists thrive. It’s also politically agnostic. It becomes the party of green with very, very few members. Okay, stepping off the soapbox 🤣. You might support making money as a bottom line consideration but it’s wake it’s pretty well documented. 🤘🏽
  7. These are gold. Thank you for sharing. dude couldn’t turn it off if he tried
  8. Ah, the destruction of college football is almost complete. It’s ceiling with be the USFL. Its floor will be Baseketball. Equity firms and corporate America kill most things.
  9. So weighing in 2 days later helps, 😂? If you understood my perspective or had shared values, you wouldn’t have replied with your agenda. I labeled and accused no one. “Maybe it’s”. Your response is fairly revealing though. The great thing about this post is I got to add a couple to the ignore bin. Welcome to it.
  10. Nah. It’s by not introducing it. I don’t want to know anyone’s politics or any ism on a sports board. I want one place where community and commonality can occur with a singular common bond. Texas football and that’s it. We’ll disagree enough on that alone. lol. Be well.🤘🏽
  11. I’ll never understand anyone that makes politics an actual part of their identity or maybe in this case it’s just good ole fashioned misogyny/racism. 5 people felt the need to endorse it as well. This country now. Sports used to be an escape…
  12. The business part says he’d need to accept a decrease in NIL to stay here. The bigger problem is sark. He finds guys he “loves” and just sticks with them. Simon looked promising and then never got any run. If he comes back, I can’t imagine sark not playing him. Last year should have year 1 for manning. That defense was perfect for a qb on a learning curve. We probably beat OSU and Fl with that defense but he let qe come back. We do this every year on offense. He simply doesn’t play many folks. That’s why we keep missing out on receivers and having so many upper classmen with little game experience on offense. Very frustrating.
  13. There’s really not much havoc. This is a Texas fan problem trying to get into the last spot. In the past, undefeated or really strong 1 loss teams would get left out. Today they don’t. Objectively, in over half our games, we played poorly and not close to playoff level football. Period. We lost to a 4 win team in maybe our worst game in 3 years. We quit in the 4th against Ga. We don’t deserve to get in. Now, our argument to get is that we sit on the fringes and our overall resume provides a stronger argument to get in over other fringe teams. That’s fair. The goalpost moving and bias against Texas is ridiculous and frustrating but let’s stop using language that suggests we earned our way in. We lost 3 games. Crying about the schedule and who we played means we’re looking for a formula vs building a team that wants to play and beat other strong teams. We had 3 chances to win one game with fl and osu right there for the taking. We didn’t. A 2 loss Texas is in. Period. 🤘🏽
  14. Are people that take the internet as gospel? Are people that define the whole of someone with only a fraction of the full picture? are…😂
  15. Making college football watchable? Good teams playing each other vs playing chess trying to get into the playoffs? Being competitive? Enjoy challenges? 🤷🏽‍♂️
