I've never seen a Canadian Tuxedo look so good.

Well, if we're being technical, only two people signed that document on or before the 4th.

The Second Day of July 1776 will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. . . . It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires, and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more. - John Adams The fathers weren't entirely sold on today as the birth of the country.

I'm not saying it won't happen...sometimes it's good to go out on a limb, even if you're the one doing the sawing.

What's your reputation before this call? When you push all your chips into the pot, no one cares when it's $1.50.

I'll hold off on the Grothe comparisons until he's done half of what Matt did.

So no pictures of boobs and what not?

He's no Mike Bianchi.

Nope, never have, will put it on the list. I swear on Amarri Jackson's TD pass you won't be disappointed.

I take it you've seen When it Was a Game? Best baseball documentary, hands down.

Greg's twitter.

You do realize Wake has been to a bowl 4/7 years, including a conference title and Orange Bowl game? If that's dead weight, what are we?

How dare you defame the 2 good people in the state of New Jersey!!! 2? With Gandolfini dying, who's left? Kevin Smith turned into an ******* when he got too fat to fit in an airplane seat.

Maybe getting a dedicated blog was part of the $1.4 billion contract we turned down.

Was WKU something special in the past to be resurrected? I think all he did was make them a top 70 program.

That's flat out wrong. The NFL does not have more balance than baseball. Look it up. • Baseball has had five different World Series champs the past five seasons. • The NFL has had one team win three of the past five Super Bowls. • Baseball has had six different teams win the World Series the past 10 seasons, and 13 different teams reach the World Series. • The NFL has had seven different teams win the Super Bowl the past 10 seasons, and 14 different teams reach the Super Bowl. • The National League has had eight different champions the past eight seasons. (Cut from an article, not quite up to date, but you get the point) http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=schoenfield/060329 Look up financial balance between clubs. Find out the revenue of the highest and lowest NFL clubs. Then compare that to the highest and lowest MLB clubs (say the Yankees and Rays). It is shocking. The NFL has a big advantage in this regard. They play 16 games per year vs 162. Makes it more reasonable to have a national TV contract. But the real reason is that some smart guy many years ago (I think it was Rozell but no longer remember) convinced all the owners that TV revenue should always be split evenly amongst the clubs. It didn't seem like a big deal at the time, but now that is the largest source of revenue. MLB got smarter, and did the same thing with Internet media rights. That money has been growing significantly over the years. But local TV numbers are still staggering. The Rays and Braves get something like a few million per year, while the Yankees and Dodgers get hundreds of millions per year. The numbers aren't even close, and won't be in the forseeable future. And yet in spite of all that, the NFL isn't any more competitive.

Houston and Seattle have been more successful than the Dodgers and Cubs in the last 15 years. In fact, Seattle had 116 wins in season during that time. Pittsburgh gutted their system and have been on the upswing for 3 years, currently giving them the best record in baseball. KC is hurting, I'll give you that. But what makes you think they can never rebound?

I think you mean relevant "information"

And I just wasted more space.

I hastily wrote that post.

Haste or waste?

There are MLB teams that will never be competitive. It's has been a miracle that the Rays have. Name one. In today's market? Seattle Houston Kansas City Pittsburgh None of those cities will have sustained success. Define "sustained" success.

I don't like it either. I can no longer count on any new information when this thread updates. I will cry a river now. This thread is 99% worthless, 1% announcement Louisville and Rutgers are leaving.
