Re: LSU fan site re Auburn-most interesting thread ever

Actually, that sounds like the exploitative Victorian society out of a Dickens novel. I always thought communism is about having the economically-exploited working class proletariat--the major producer of wealth in society--revolt against the rent-seeking, capitalistic bourgeoisie in order to creat...

Re: LSU fan site re Auburn-most interesting thread ever

I don't support a price ceiling. Let them go pro if they want to make money and are good at what they do. European soccer has solved this problem, imho. The best part of college sports is that the money doesn't do all the talking. School is about getting an education, not making a buck. (unless you...

Correct it was set up as part of a cartel to prevent payments to athletes while allowing payments to college administrators and coaches and provide scholarships for athletes in sports that do not b...

NCAA is socialist, etc...

What I find hard to believe is that there are so many un-ethical football families willing to take money, knowing it's against the law and not one questioning where that money is coming from. Is society that corrupt already? First, taking money to play football is not against the law. I personally ...

Re: 2011 Season Opener

I wouldn't mind Neb to start but only if the game were at home or at a neutral site. What I really want is for the Utah-Col game moved up to the third week and the BYU-Utah game and Col-CSU games moved to Nov 26. It would open up another early game to schedule a BCS team or an easy win. They could d...
