And you are too old for the internet. Delusional would be putting it mildly.

Correct.
If I had more say within Texas athletics I would force a lot of people to answer some tough questions
Starting with Shaka Smart.
Vandy is my school so I have other things to worry about

Clearly this is why you were sporting an Arkansas logo yesterday.

I wouldn't mind the trolling that much... it is the off season after all. But its the ignorance of how the world works that scares me. Please tell me you have not produced offspring.

Thanks for the "SEC level" lesson on economics. I needed a good laugh and you guys sure delivered.

Just a suggestion - find a good junior college and take some more economics classes. Start over and you might understand it the second time through.

The Southeastern Conference isn't a planned economy. It is not "the living and breathing definition of capitalism." It is a not-for-profit corporation chartered to handle the administration of select aspects of the operations of the athletics departments of the SEC member schools.

I knew SEC member schools had weak academics, but supposedly being college educated and not understanding the difference between corporate structure and an economic system is just sad.

If you believe the SEC is not-for-profit... well then you should not bogart all the high quality weed my friend.

Again, find a good junior college and take a few economics classes. Tax exempt since 1959.

SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE

FYI - The NFL and the New York Stock Exchange were non-profit corporations for decades.

By which, if you could understand what I was saying, if you believe the SEC is not for making the most money it possibly could... then don't go to a community college.

They won't accept you.

Have you considered a career as an organ donor?

The SEC is all about profit.

Just so I get the details correct, you did get your understanding of economics from classes you took at the Univ of Arkansas, correct? I want to make sure I get the institution correct when I tell the story.

Cool story bro

The idea that each and every university should should get the equal amount is pure Marxism

I see why Arkansas would be against that considering they never finished much higher than 3rd in the division

Look. I get it. You created another account and this is your last ditch attempt to troll me.

If your biggest slur you can sling the way of my university is that I scoffed at the idea that the SEC is not about making the most money they can... fine. Fire away.

I am duly chastised. Truly this is the lowest moment of my life and I shall for ever writhe in agony over your burning wit carried out over multiple accounts so you can argue with yourself.

You have defeated me with your rapier wit. I may, or may not, kill myself over the vast shame I feel now.

That having been said. Son, you really need to get laid. You are going to kill yourself before you hit 22 at this rate.

99.9999% of Joe Fan base have no knowledge of the non profit aspect.. prepare for brain splatter among the recipients.

Introduce some examples for the class on programs that turn a % of profit back to the university and of course those that borrow from the university.

I don't post on any board under any name other than this one and never have. You should know that by now.

And I did not slur you in any way. I was merely trying to confirm your understanding of economics was a product of the education you received at the University of Arkansas. When I share what you posted earlier, I want to get the school correct.
