But it's the DARKEST DAY!

 

[TideEngineer08]

Yeah, sanctimonious doesn't even begin to describe it. Not to wax political here, believe me, but it's becoming more and more apparent that there divides in this country that simply cannot be bridged. I don't know what that means for our future, but I don't believe it's good.

Or my alma mater, to be honest.

Oh how it warmed my heart to see how her pathetically hypocritical ass got savaged in the replies.

She tried ~walking it back, but um, sorry hunnee, too late...

 

[bamamc1]

Well, I’m glad we get to see Harbaugh lose to Ohio State again lol.

 

[BamaNation]

i think that last game can be cancelled if you lose a game due to positive tests.Check this out. Saying this decision is worse than molesting children, she has lost her mind. keep in mind she's on the northwestern board of directors. https://www.elevenwarriors.com/foru...amen-holy-shnikees-shes-big-mad-at-the-big-10

and that is quite possibly the worst take on sports in her long, sanctimonious, 'what is she even talking about?' "sports" columnist career.

Given the current climate, shouldn't she be/get canceled now?

It's worse than that. She mentions the four major sex scandals in the big 10 and still says this is worse than molesting small children. I'm speechless.

Five reasons Big10 changed it's mind.
1 thru 4: Money
5: medical stuff

It’s remarkable that the Big Ten reversal comes just in time for the league to still participate in the full college football season. It’s widely believed around the league that the Big Ten will still be able to play both its lucrative conference title game and still be considered for the College Football Playoff.

This proved a huge motivator for those who helped will this reversal, as the elite teams — Ohio State, Penn State and Michigan — used this carrot as a way to keep many of the top players like OSU’s Justin Fields, Penn State’s Pat Freiermuth and Michigan’s Kwity Paye from declaring for the NFL draft. If the Big Ten had played in the spring, as it originally planned, it’s unlikely that those stars and many others would have played this season.

The preservation is also a financial boon for the Big Ten, which has programs looking at tens of millions in losses this season. (Ticket revenue is worth nearly $60 million at a school like Ohio State.) The Big Ten reportedly received $66 million in payouts from the College Football Playoff last year, which equates to more than $4.5 million per schools.

5 reasons why the Big Ten reversed course on fall football season

With the news finally official about the Big Ten’s return, here are five reasons why the conference made the decision to bring fall football back.

It’s when I see columns/comments like this that I’m glad I’ve never heard of some of these people.
Any of you ever raised or been around bantam chickens? They are smaller chickens, but the rooster struts his self-importance for all he’s worth from dawn to dusk. Never takes a daylight moment off. It’s hilarious and instructive to watch. I see this behavior more and more with people who try to opine on football. Gotta try to make a living I guess, but her’s is one more byline I’ll skip over.

Dude, the comments on that are comedy GOLD! Some are crude, but still highly entertaining!

Christine Brennan lost all credibility on any issue when she let her "all men are rapists" life philosophy allow her to drag the Duke lacrosse team through the mud based on assumption and ignorance. Let's be blunt: a GUY who did the reverse ("the reason I know they were innocent is because EVIDENCE and common sense"), he'd still not be writing anywhere - and people like Brennan would have been the cause.

There's a reason Brennan - who in her younger days was a decently attractive woman - has never married. It's called the Bat Spit Crazy theory.

She's also one of those Big 10 fans who graduated from Northwestern but latched onto the "conference" because it was a way of feeling superior to all those rednecks down south. My God, her venom for Southerners comes through loud and clear in that very article.

Just remember lady:
1) Delta is ready when you are
2) NOBODY leaves down south to retire up north - and it ain't just because of the weather.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Plus it will end up being 9 straight weeks. I don't care what conference you are in, 9 straight weeks is pretty rough.

I'm thinking BYU only playing eight weeks in a row is why they were able to go unbeaten in 1984.

Not denying that. However, I believe 11 games in 13 weeks in the sec would be rougher. Thats what...approx 140 plays for both the offense and defense. 140 more collisions for O and D linemen. That many more hits for ball handlers...that many more plays for starters to get injured. I'm just comparing it for playoff/championship game reasons. I don't see how allowing a conf that plays 2 games less into the playoffs is "fair".

This isn't non-sports - let's keep it on football or it will end up there...

Looks like the MAC is going to change their minds too.
