  1. My pussy doesn’t hurt because I disagree with you. Grow the fuck up.
  2. He’s explicitly denying that it’s pay for play. Yes, as I wrote earlier, it’s a legal structure designed to obscure reality. That doesn’t change what we all know to be the reality. Well, almost all of us.
  3. Their playing on the team is the sine qua non of the deal and any other view is purposefully obtuse. Illegal based on what law? An illegal contract, why, exactly?
  4. You’re begging the question. Why is there no entitlement to lemonade when the deal was predicated on getting lemonade? Look, you can spin it and narrow it and whatever, but they’re getting paid solely because they’re on the team.
  5. How many deals are you signing with people who aren’t “players?”
  6. You absolutely are entitled to the lemonade. It was part of the inducement for buying the cup. It’s like saying you’re not entitled to a free item on a BOGO promotion. It’s literally part of the sales pitch. It absolutely is pay for play. It’s simply structured for deniability. They’re not getting the money because their dazzling personalities are going to bring in customers or attract people to a cause. They’re getting the money because they’re playing.
  7. That’s fair. Thanks. So I guess those surrounding Ole Miss would divvy up their land.
  8. What are the rules behind this map? Say Kentucky beats Ole Miss. Then what?
  9. College football has been a game of whose ringers are better than someone else’s ringers for more than 100 years. It’s only grown more popular.
  10. I understand the argument. Let’s say Texas wins out all the way to the playoff final. UGA loses to Texas and Tennessee but gets in as an at large and wins to make the final. Texas is 15-0 with a win over UGA. UGA is 13-2 with a previous loss to Texas. Play the championship game or not? Or Texas finishes 12-0 and UGA is second in the conference at 11-1. Play the championship game or not? If an unbeaten team is set up to play a team with a loss in the national championship game, just cancel it? Or only cancel it if they’ve already played? There are no perfect solutions.
  11. If I’m promised free lemonade for buying the cup and I buy the cup and don’t get the lemonade, that’s problematic. But I’m not explicitly selling lemonade. I’m not saying this guy is right or wrong or a shithead or not. I’m saying it’s a specious argument to say it isn’t pay for play because it isn’t explicitly structured as such. It very clearly is money being delivered because someone is playing.
  12. You’re the one doing the legal gymnastics. No, it isn’t explicitly pay for play. But it clearly is pay for play. It’s a legal structure purposefully designed to obscure reality. If the health code prevented me from selling lemonade, but I sold cups for $5 and gave away the lemonade for free, I’m not explicitly selling lemonade. But we all know what the reality is.
  13. I can’t even ponder the possibility of his going to ND and beating the Aggies’ asses next season. It’s too much.
  14. Then “playing OU probably isn’t going to help them.” That was one of the two possibilities.
  15. Not hard to figure out who’s on the opponent’s turf. “Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?”
  16. Many of those players weren’t signed as of 1/4/2006.
  17. They’ll play emotional. Texas will play with emotion. Texas is going to beat their asses physically, mentally, schematically, and totally.
  18. JFC, I’m an “autist” with a limited bag of sarcasm and obscure references humor and even my sense of humor is more refined than his. Yes, I realize I’m opening myself to feedback but I’m going to pretend like I don’t understand it and just ignore it.
  19. Yes, there was lots of downside. Texas beats Florida and Alabama and it’s a different scenario. He sealed his fate with trying to replicate Alabama without an Alabama roster in a state that doesn’t play Alabama football in high school. He easily could have won three titles in five years, but, well, he didn’t. And he went out as a petty, paycheck stealing bitch. I think I missed two games during his tenure, and I’m more than ready for Sarkisian to step past him as #2 at Texas and give DKR a damned good run for #1.
  20. I’m old, old. Like being the only Longhorn fan in a rural-ass redneck peckerwood corduroy FFA jacket-wearing shithole middle school when Akins was out with a knee injury in 1975. Don’t even get into the FedEx years. Texas needs to ground and pound until they don’t make a fucking sound, imo. What keeps it from being Aggie-like is that going juggernaut over their mangled corpses is that the win won’t be a salve for accomplishing fuck-all else, like it’s always been for them. It’s not either/or. Fuck them up and accomplish bigger goals.
  21. That’s worlds away from mailing it in. What he did after losing the game he expected to win against Alabama is mailing it in.
