What? Fake money going down makes you stop believing in the earnings power of companies? da frick
Maybe not the earnings power of companies, but in what their stock price represents, sure. There is manipulation.
Fake money doesn’t reach 3.5 trillion in value and gain institutional adoption. It’s worth considering what has happened since October and especially the last 48 hours. Of course its flaws are weighed heavily right now.

This drop is making me lose confidence not just in crypto but in stocks or any other asset period. Basically all markets in general.
I understand the lack of intrinsic value argument. But did we just decide that in the last week as a society? This is Black Swan territory. There’s not even a hint of support. We all just collectively decided that we’re done with it.
At this point I’m riding to zero.

There’s a reason they blew up the sport via NIL/portal, and this is it. The sport had to break the containment the South had on it. There was just too much potential to lock it all up in one region, and the only way to break that was to upend it.
Coincidentally, immediately after that happens, the conference with the most unlocked eyeball numbers reels off 3 in a row by its biggest brands, and one of the losingest programs of all time who also just happens to have the largest living alumni base won the whole damn thing with an arguable GOAT team.
You couldn’t script it any better if you were negotiating media contracts.
The SEC had to decline in order to unlock a gold mine. It’s going exactly as planned. Even better. USC or Oregon is primed to win it all next year and continue the realization of the sport monetarily.

We have a true playoff now where teams have to win on the field against teams from other conferences.
Were national title games in the BCS era and semifinals in the 4 team era not played against teams from other conferences? Do those games not count? Are all titles prior to 12 teams nulll and void? Were they played at all?
quote:
Who knows how many SEC teams would have won in the past under a true playoff system.
Mathematically, adding more teams decreases the chance of a particular team from a particular conference winning the title because every time a game is played there is a chance to lose. So, yes, it is mathematically less likely that an SEC team wins it all in all of those years. That is just basic math. But we didn’t have a 12-team playoff then.

There are other explanations for this, though. Correlation is not causation.

The level of shenanigans and paying within the SEC was at the institutional level, embraced by the member universities themselves. No other conference comes close.
Where is the proof of this? The entire argument is non-falsifiable anti-SEC fodder. “They were only good cause they cheated” is loser talk.

Let's see whether the SEC can win it in a system where you have to earn it on the field.
Those championship games weren’t played?

Football is becoming a much more cerebral game and the South is lacking in that department, especially in the high school ranks.
Can’t just roll a ball out on the field and out-athlete folks anymore.

They play more sound, fundamental, physical football. SEC got high on the hog. We have a long way to go to match the physicality of either of those teams tonight but the Big-10 plays that way every weekend.
IU has more heart, guts, balls, dog, and every single other intangible you can possibly have in a team at any one time.
They are remarkable and a case study in coaching going forward.

Unreal how IU just makes it happen when they need it. Never seen a team quite like them.
If the throw had been on I think the call it. WR was looking the other way for the ball. Still should’ve been a hold IMO.
Beck has plenty of time to throw. Miami needs to score here quickly and get as many possessions as possible to end this game.
Miami line is big but they are getting handled.
It’s wild. I watched this Miami Oline dominate Ohio State.
Indiana will be studied for a long time.

Miami ain’t keeping up. Beck is due for a shite performance. Hes about to start pressing.
Start talking about the GOAT team.

That PI call was the game.

Our conference commissioner like an idiot went along with it
Sankey is a New Yorker btw.

The B1G literally brought in NIL with the portal to sabotage the SEC roster building. That immediately liquidated half a decade if roster building overnight and allowed them to out spend immediately to win.
Correct. They took a wrecking ball to the sport to undo the stranglehold the South (not just the SEC) had on the sport. Sankey signed off on it.
The #2 sport in the country still had national interest left on the table and they were intent on capturing it. But it had to open the gates for the rest of the country to Southern talent.
Hate it for him but that passion for the game is what got him there.
