LSU fans are already 30 minutes south of Oxford.

Are they going to check out the saw mills in Bruce, MS (which, coincidentally, sits at the geographic center of the SEC school campuses... move the SEC HQ and championship game to Bruce)?
Honestly, for meaningful early employment and pay/benefits with minimal debt, going to a community college and learning a trade is not a bad option for the majority of kids.

Did you never play LIFE as a kid?
The Black Sox come to mind and that lasted 100+ yrs before reinstatement.

The gambling world is much more advanced in 2026.

Ban him and all of the same ilk that jeopardize the already shaky ground of current athletics at all levels.

Or, put Pete Rose in the HoF

Oklahoma is Jim Thorpe. Arguably one of the best if not the best athlete in history

This. The man was the purest athlete to ever walk the earth and play organized sports.

Guy dominated and basically gave Hitler the middle finger

With wrong sized borrowed shoes because his were stolen.
They all do it. I genuinely don't care. We don't have to like it; it is the wild west and rules don't apply. The inmates are running the asylum, and the sport is worse off for it.

re: Worst cities in SEC states

Going to Memphis this weekend. Just have to know where to be and not to be.

Jackson is the shittiest city in the south. I hate stopping for gas there.

Bham is much worse than Montgomery, as is Mobile. I'd even add Decatur over Montgomery for AL shitholes.
Honestly, air it out and shine light on the new era mold. It may do some good.
It was a bitch move by UF. Bad look. Kids are taught to act better no matter the context. It is just a damn ball game after all.

No I’m saying Lane is a fricking pussy

Lane 100% could have Ed O'd that kid. But, for what? It just gives these dumbass viral wannabe douches what they want.

Lane acts like a petulant child and a lot of it is for brand and production. But, he took personal time away from his day to give this kid a moment and got a shite return.

People just genuinely suck nowadays, and others wonder why famous people would rather just blow people off in public than expose themselves to this trash.

Maybe too much of a baseball purist but they are more of a mockery to baseball

Pretty sure pure baseball is not the aim.

It is the BB version of the Globetrotters. It's just entertainment with athletic skill involved.

Don't try to compare it to the actual game.
I hate the Bham area, but Hoover isn't a bad host site.
"All sports"

I am of the mindset that "all sports" are not the same. If there isn't a competitive athletic element with an offense and a defense that can affect the other contestant(s), is it really a sport or just an athletic achievement?
quote:

Just depends on age and where you grew up/live.

Lot of truth there. For instance, I hate any success that UTk athletics may have. I couldn't care less about AU. And, actually find myself pulling for them more often than not, especially given how awful their football became. Maybe a Russian is the answer. But, frick UTk in general.

Fans of each are really pretty decent. I just hate that stupid orange school. Nothing personal.
quote:

Other coaches aren't signing a full team of 23+ year old

Then, that is their loss.

What was IU's avg player age in CFB this year?

If the rules allow it, get over it or change the rules.

Adapt or die... or, just grumble and hate from the corner because that works.
quote:

the dirtiest sport on the planet

That would be boxing or horse racing
If people don't like the rules, they should lobby to change the rules.

It is a multi-million dollar business. Those that want to stay in it and excel will leverage the loopholes to give them an advantage.

Half the things Saban did at Bama to sustain a competitive advantage were things he preached against as bad for the sport. You don't have to like it, but it is a part of the game.
