Hello 79er. How goes things?

Hello others. Fried some taters and onions. Coffee.

Some pretty good football watching the last few days.

Strange. I wouldn't think being a fluffer would be that demanding.

Glad you got out of that biz though.

Yes, or 'topper'. The comic strip, Dilbert, would occasionally feature this character. Was always funny.

It's a bit of a character flaw. There was even a saying that doesn't get used much anymore that went something like this, "He'd rather tell a lie, when the truth would suit him better!"
All right guys, have a good evening.

Small school ball is refreshing, tbh. I think there will be a big market for it.


Absolutely. There was hardly anything more exciting than when Boise State first started rising to prominence and they had Peterson as their coach and a lot of motion. Lot of exciting plays. When App State had their good run in in 067 and 8, it was just a great time to go to games and we were slightly ahead of the curve as far as offense goes and our quarterback was talented. It was a blast.

Yep, and I'm sure you aren't. I'm not sure what input guys like us can have until we start voting with attendance or lack thereof and donations or lack thereof.

@JoePep.

Exactly. It almost seems quaint now to think about what some of the controversies were in the past. Cheating on grade scores. Cheating on SAT scores to get a player.
It's crazy that the people that are supposed to be in charge are the ones making all the stupid decisions and the 18 to 22-year-olds are making decisions that are good for them but don't seem wise to us. At least for the long run.
TW, You may very well be right. And I don't think it's going to be a bad loss, that's how far gone they already are. I'm not even sure of the structure of the different levels of football we have now. There is the FBS, the FCS, I think division III.

I guess one of the things in App States favor is there's probably 80 to 120 or more teams that are roughly in the same situation. Be it stadium size, student enrollment, dollars being donated, attendance to games, endowment, Rich alums. I guess at some point you have to think why are we in this league when we have zero chance of ever winning the championship. We barely have any kind of chance of getting to the tournament..
But it's not the player's fault. They're taking advantage of what's being offered to them. As crazy as it sounds, it's the NCAA who has made these decisions. And they haven't made a good decision in about 20 years. What kind of education do we think a player is getting when they are at four colleges in 4 years or five colleges in 5 years and I'm eliminating the silly covid year and Junior college decision they made last year.

but there’s certain things that I just flat out respect and things I don’t.

Shooting someone in the back is right behind slitting someone’s throat that isn’t looking. It’s the ultimate cowardice even if you are fighting an enemy. This wasn’t even an enemy. As Alexander the Great said or close to “go ahead and turn your backs to be scarred, my only scars are on my front side”. Badass mother

Hitting someone when they aren’t looking,

Stealing from someone (non-food) is despicable it makes me sick honestly.

Not telling uneducated musicians taking the short term payment is 1000000000% less than keeping their intellectual property thus royalties then somehow take the moral high ground with same said group of people.


Wow. You're practically like Gandhi, Mother Teresa, and The Dalai Lama all rolled into one.

This transfer portal shite is wild


It really is out of control. I've been having some somewhat serious discussions with friends about nil and the portal and what the future holds for colleges, especially the size of ASU. We cannot compete with big schools. I think it's going to ultimately lead to a bifurcated NCAA. Or maybe an additional bifurcation...

And I completely believe that these football players are getting less education than they did even 5 years ago. And I thought that's what was supposed to matter?
