frick that. He doesn't deserve the privilege to be on Team USA.

Rip him off and let someone more deserving, who actually loves the USA have his place.

He can go ski for Canada or Iran or some such place. I'm sure they'll take him.

Because all legitimate sports should be subdivided into men’s and women’s competitions

Why, specifically when there’s no competitive advantage as you claim here?

There are no separate divisions in competitive chess, egames, some sailing and shooting competitions.

You didn’t really answer my question.

Well, no one is forcing them. Don’t fund them and kick them off the team.

Let them go play for a real autocratic regime and see what happens when they complain.

Something I find remarkable is that all the die-hard followers of Hayek's "The Road to Serfdom" always fail to acknowledge his understanding that many environmental issues constitute "negative externalities" that the market cannot regulate alone, hence the need for government or societal interventions and protections.

---

And there we have it!

Why is it that Environmentalism of this sort almost always entails expanded government intervention?

While I don’t fully accept the standard Econ 101 framing of negative externalities, let’s grant for the sake of argument that they exist. Even then, the central issue is not merely whether costs must be allocated, but who is best positioned to do so under conditions of limited knowledge and imperfect incentives.

Given that both markets and governments face information and incentive problems, why should we expect centralized regulators—who are also susceptible to capture and epistemic limits—to outperform more decentralized mechanisms in addressing these issues?”

There’s a dozen people on here that I honestly don’t know how they decide what to eat for breakfast without Trump telling them.

These kind of comments are beyond ironic considering how in lock step progressive sheep follow their pied pipers.

Good thing for him it's just all about the paychecks to players now, can't imagine how many of those kids would want to play for a man like that

A man like what? He was an Ole Miss legend in line for a statue in Oxford a few short month ago.

---

students enrolled and under contract at a different university

---

In general, are these players actually under contract?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the particular player at Clemson had not signed any kind of a deal - he had just applied for and was granted financial aid.

Score more than the other team

You do realize #1 is relatively to the given year, right?

The two rankings have no relationship to each other, only relative to the other classes in that year.

This ruling is going to be a test to see whether Clarence Thomas rejects his textual roots and adopts the living document method.

In this case, what is the fair meaning of the phrase 'subject to the jurisdiction'?

Do you admit to any potential ambiguity there, and if so how would you resolve it?
