I’d buy that if they actually went to court and established precedence that they can but then didn’t expel I’d buy it.

This whole thing was to show that they didnt have to go to court to have the muscle. The conference sets the rules, dare to go against them and you could be out regardless of some random judge's decision. That is why it went from zero to "we are voting to kick you out" in 5 seconds. Nip it in the bud and show who is in control.

Note how quickly Texas Tech shut its mouth about Sorsby once the conference united against them. Not the same scenario by any means, but the hand that feeds usually doesnt lose.

Stu’s Wife in The Hangover

She was girlfriend, thus the whole conflict over the Holocaust ring with Jade. Terrible lady but Stu cutting her loose was fantastic.

I just wrapped season 1 and am starting season 2. Both my wife and I enjoy this one. One thing that does seem forced to me is the amount of profanity that Morgan Freeman spews. I am no prude at all, but it seems like they wrote the character for Samuel Jackson and then pivoted to Freeman. It just doesnt sound natural coming out of his mouth ha.

That Moore to Moore connection in 1990 was damn good. I thought Herman Moore was going to be the next big WR in the NFL (and I dont give a crap about UVA).

Other than Skubal who we know will be a Dodger.

While I dont think our ownership group that cares more about the rest of their portfolio than the Braves will be in the bidding, if the rumors surrounding Walter are true, the Dodgers might be looking for a new owner which would likely keep them out of that bidding.

Yep. Its a control thing. All that $ and still have the sickness to have someone be submissive or dominant. I'm betting the later.

I think we are severely overthinking this. Kraft was likely on his way to the airport, checked his watch, realized he had a free hour, saw a rub and tug and told his limo driver to make a stop. York likely had afternoon activities and found someone that fit his schedule.

Is it stupid and should these folks have advisors telling them better and/or arranging it for them? Sure, but at the end of the day, the most undefeated object on earth flexed again and somebody acted dumb to get it. Water is wet.

They did a nice job of not even touching the whole Baby Jane Doe thing. My wife swears Robby took her home.

Then why make a policy that would elongate both the bag check process (lines likely 3x as long) on the front end and the bag retrieval process on the back end? Unless airlines throw massive resources at this to support it on both ends, that is the result. Sure they could charge for the carry on, but unless it is a universal decision, every business traveler (who they cater to, that is their biggest $ maker) will just flock to another airline.

They took a good thing and thought multiplying it was the answer. Jordan drops used to cause people to save up and go wait in line to buy them. It was an event. Now LBJ, Giannis, Luka, Tatum, Zion, Ja, and Devin Booker all have signature shoes. Nobody gives a crap.

They are lucky they have the agreements with the sports leagues as well as the top collegiate programs outside of a few. I dont have a strong opinion on Nike, but that would change the second UGA decided to go with Adidas or Under Armour. Oh hell no, have you seen the crap they put out? That new fly Nike polo for a new season was a thing. However, just like they did with their running shoes, they are opening the door for Onward and others to poach that market. They didnt see the fact that things changed and people will pay $150 for shoes or more than $70 for a comfortable polo. I try not to, but surveying the amount of Hokas, Rhobacks, etc out there, a hell of a lot of people will.

I got a $450 speeding ticket in Dublin 20 years ago for doing 12-13 over.

The stretch from Macon to Dublin, particularly the Twiggs County area is a cash cow for the state patrol. As someone who (sadly) drives that way often, I have to set my cruise control and just bear with it.
