2007 was superior to this mediocre product we're seeing now
Michigan is a mess lol
Unfortunately It's crashing bad, internationally. Domestic will have to do most of the lifting

If tweet fails to load, click here.Just got out. I'm actually surprised how much I enjoyed that. It's a fun time at the movies. I took a group of buddies who don't know a thing about Clayface, and they all had fun. Give this one a chance
The drinker liked it
Good to see Netflix moving quickly this time

Ten years ago, yes, he would've been a great choice. But he's 50 now. Way too old
I don't think he's interested. His name has never come up in any reports from the trades
Miami is positioning itself to join another conference or go independent

If tweet fails to load, click here. quote:
In a dark, slimly fitted suit, peering through black spectacles and moving with the suave befitting of the U itself, Echevarria (pronounced ehchuh-vah-reeuh) makes no apologies for his present position: The University of Miami refuses to accept the current status quo as a member of the second class in the growing caste system within college athletics.
And if anyone questions him, Echevarria has a simple retort: It's just business.
"We are proud members of the ACC. If the economics were even, we wouldn't be having any of these conversations," he told Yahoo Sports in an interview this week. "Thing is, we sit in the second tier. It's a reason we don't get a vote on the 24-team playoff and the Big Ten and SEC do."
quote:
This, he says, is why Miami is now positioning itself for a move into college athletics's top financial and social stratosphere, the SEC and Big Ten; why the school (and several others in the ACC) has been forced to explore aspects of football independence; and why the university, despite rebuke from congressional lawmakers and those connected to the White House, is fighting against a federal bill that stands to prevent further realignment in the industry.
"You cannot lock us into a conference," he says, flatly.
"The fact is that we won about every game you could win last year and maxed out in revenue in our current [ACC] sharing model. And we made the same amount of money as other institutions [in the Big Ten and SEC] whose football programs operate at different levels of investment and performance."
If projections are accurate, Echevarria says, the Big Ten and SEC, already distributing an average of $25 million more to each of their schools than the ACC, will almost double their edge when they renegotiate their television contracts in 2030 — the year that the SEC may execute a look-in clause with ESPN and when the Big Ten's current media rights deal expires.
