    Why does he look like he’s taking a shit?

    Even if China pays the tariff its still an increased cost on the importer/purchaser. It's not that difficult even if you don't understand the mechanics.

    Three surlyites looking for a fourth?

    It's always pissed me off that student loan interest deduction is capped and subject to pretty low phaseout. I'd push to make it unlimited regardless of other student loan relief.

    Preventing price gouging = SOCIALISM! Telling credit card companies what to do = MAN OF THE PEOPLE! These people are hopeless and I fucking hate them.

    Mad boomer energy here. I don't like much of the modern stuff because it objectively look dumb. "Work clothes" is such a cheesy concept. It's still a game being played for its entertainment value for people getting wasted in the stands, parking lot, or on their couch. I just think there is a lot of ugly shit being worn these days.

    Blaming democrats because millions of people are too stupid to understand that republicans have fucked the economy for them every time they gain power is certainly a take. Trying to get to them is a waste of time because they are literally too stupid to convince.

    Then it was poor execution because they looked dumb as shit.

    No, the review was mixed, not enough to kill it, Carmy will do better, rely more on Syd, reconcile with Claire, get his star, series finale. I think it’s pretty obvious unless they just want to be obscurely dark with the conclusion, or cheesy like him going back to slinging sandwiches and finding peace. I sorta liked the Faks. Just more absurdity that your fat funny mechanic friend becomes a server/host at your restaurant that’s pursuing Michelin stars. We’ve already suspended belief that Richie became a pro after four days of training and a complete change in perspective, adding Fak feels like too much of a stretch.

    Powerful stuff from Obama. I don’t understand the dynamic of rallies well enough, how will his words get to the people who need to hear them? Everyone in that room is already voting for Harris.

    Oh shit he’s gonna post some angry ass truths tonight lol

    Is it your expectation that the BIG and SEC will go to unequal distributions? Because if so, there is some logic here, but not if Purdue continues making $80M same as Michigan. The money their talking about at the top is absurdly more than any plausible possibility under the current structure. I also don't see how PE would have much control over anything, the networks will still be in charge of pretty much everything, because their the ones paying. PE would just be getting their share. I do agree that the proposal seems plausible without PE money but I'm no expert on private equity.

    I agree, it's not happening, not even a conversation starter.

    I think this is just random fan fic, the Project Rudy article says that the conference structure would remain the same.

    I literally had a conversation yesterday afternoon that I saw a headline that the dome was being set up with cots for emergency workers to ride out the storm and said that the roof has always looked like tissue paper and would definitely blow off. How was this not entirely expected?

    I thought voting by mail was fraud? They should probably just invalidate the republican ballots.

    Well he has a point, fentanyl used to be a poor white trash business, so they’re taking those jobs and forcing them to deal meth instead. It’s a tough time for the whites.

    No they didn't. The shithead State Superintendent and his board issued an RFP with a description that only fit this piece of shit book but there's been no response and the AG will ensure that not a dime of state money is spent on that bullshit, as would the state Supreme Court if necessary.

    "The more I watch Michael Jordan highlights the more it appears he was a below average player. Just dribbles around and throws it in the air sometimes. The Bulls must regret having drafted him." That's what these people sound like. Words without context, support, or meaning.

    I wouldn’t do “tiers” for payout purposes. Maybe for scheduling. The money would be a straight formula every year. Base pay plus rating based distribution.
  22. 'stache
    I said tv ratings would be involved so it’s essentially permanent but considers a full tank like Miami or Nebraska where people outside their own fan base eventually stop giving a shit. Also why 8? Why not 6? Or 10? The cutoff seems arbitrary especially when it says the difference between tiers is like $30-$40M. I think the formula should just straight up be largely based on tv ratings. Everyone gets a minimum annual payout, say $25% of the pot. The rest is paid out strictly on a formula of tv rating. Maybe carve out 10-15% playable based on W-L record but the primary driver should be tv ratings since that is where the money is made. Also avoids these really drastic tier differences. Miami didn’t lose prestige overnight, over time if the rating keep dropping, your payout drops accordingly over time, not all at once. The real bluebloods would never be in danger of not making a fortune.

    Programs barely have spring games anymore but open practices to avoid injuries. I doubt they'd do inter-squad scrimmages. Even the NFL is cutting back on pre-season games. At least the FCS/G6 layup games count for win loss records.
  25. 'stache
    I think one FCS and/or one G6 game per season would be fine, those schools need the money, and even the bluebloods can use a warmup game, especially if they are transitioning between QBs or other important positions.
