you mean "Oops I Crapped My Pants"I can feel it now. At some time in the next few years I will go to some venue to watch a listed streamed or telecast Buff football game and up will pop "Live from Wilkes-Barre, PA, the Eastern semi-finals of the senior division Pro-Am Indoor Pickleball Challenge brought to you by Growlies Pet Foods and Whoopsies Adult Diapers". As sure as the f'ing Sun sets in the west.....
I’m not a virgin.the only thing that will solve all of this is a tribute to the Football Gods.
it must be worthy of their attention.
i propose ritual human sacrifice and i have narrowed it down to several candidates.
you know who you are.
That guy doesn't know his asshole from his mouth.
They’ve been .500 or above 3 of the last 5 seasons.Disluke. ASU has a garbage hockey program. OTOH, it will make for four easy wins every year for DU, so that’s something, I guess.
****tier towns with ****tier weatherThough I don't know many here who would object to Lincoln, Champaign, Iowa City, West Lafayette and East Lansing.
Mouthbreathers with Flip PhonesIf streaming is such a big deal why hasn't the SEC gone all in on Amazon or Apple?
Why did they sign with ESPN/ABC ?
I saw them headline a show at the Iowa State Fair in '06Mouthbreathers with Flip Phones
I'd join that league just to watch a team coached by Prime whip one coached by Melvin.****tier towns with ****tier weather
based upon their interactions with others, i am pretty sure we have several here to choose from.I’m not a virgin.
The NBA loses Billions on the WNBA. Average Attendance is 5,000 per night and that is being generous since there is an average of three thousand free seats/giveaways. Ratings/Viewership: the NBA average game is 14M viewers while the WNBA viewership is 390,000. The WNBA salaries are relatively high compared to what the WNBA league brings in, yet the athletes want private flights, hotels, food budget, enhanced security to match what the NBA players bring in. Granted they don't make NBA type salaries, they have to make that overseas; The American Hockey League (not the NHL, talking the American hockey farm system) has slightly better attendance than the WNBA.
The quality of talent/play has somewhat increased over the years in the WNBA but when you don't have an audience and the NBA is losing so much money to keep that league afloat, it is challenging to justify the players requests.
You and I will be pushing up daisies..I don't care if I have a diaper on the next time the Buffs have a winning season. Same way I thought in 86-87 after so many years of bad football, I bought my first season tickets for the 88 season I still thought I was going to live forever.I can feel it now.

Have you seen them? No, of course you haven’t. They’re terrible.They’ve been .500 or above 3 of the last 5 seasons.
Happy Anniversary
That post was from 2022.I'm not clear what the real message is here
Certainly the PAC 12 hasn't had representation without negotiation authority engaged with potential partners?
PAC leading the way again. Smaller payout in the future? Hell the PAC is just ahead of it time.I haven't had TV for 15 years. It is going to die soon, and sports will have to adapt to the smaller payouts on streaming
I’m hoping to not be wearing diapers AND/OR eating pet food the next time the Buffs are over .500…..it’s a modest goal. Go Prime. God bless Mark Hatcher and the resurgent Buffs of the mid-to-late 80s. The start of some great times for sure.You and I will be pushing up daisies..I don't care if I have a diaper on the next time the Buffs have a winning season.

I am curious how this season goes. But I do know one thing you should know. As bad as you might have been recently you have no clue the depths to which a football team can sink. Seriously.

Thx. Missed thatThat post was from 2022.
Maybe. Maybe they knew it might trouble coming as the dollar amounts keep rising and thought a former insider might help them. To me $60m seems cheap for 7 games that you know a lot of Boomers will tune in for. Does each game sell $10-12m in advertising? Or is it just a good loss leader for NBC? Its inconsistent not having a game each Saturday.I can’t imagine ND would hire the former NBC sports exec (and former ND player) as AD without knowing they’re a priority to remain with NBC, but you never know. I think the networks and conferences are milking this thing for one last contract before it all gets blown up with streaming in 6-7 years.
What NBC really wants is Notre Dame in the B1G and priority rights to also televise most of its road & neutral games.Maybe.

NBC is really pushing Peacock having already hid the best EPL games there, some Big Ten games, and now the NFL wild card game. Will NBC want the ND games on Peacock too? The negotiations between the two might come down to that.
I could see the B1G agreeing to that to get the last major property left in the wild into the conference.What NBC really wants is Notre Dame in the B1G and priority rights to also televise most of its road & neutral games.
