  1. Hit a little close to home, did I? Coming from another Big Ten alum. Where's OMC or Vance? Let's compare academic stats with those goofball southern schools. ? Ole Miss doesnt count, duh. thats one of those goofy clown schools, where you either learn 1. law or 2. piling as many people into a mini cooper as possible.
  2. I still think it's all being driven by football media revenue. I don't know how the teams could come up with their own tourney and keep all these other schools out. maybe the Big Ten teams will just drop out like most of their alumni. Hit a little close to home, did I? its just that every time I see a homeless man, I think "there lies another tragic University of Indiana failure.." we're just not equipped socially to land in those posh places like Grand Rapids.

  4. that sounds like Kansas's only hope for inclusion to one of them,or strongest hope
  5. Indi-who? I prefer [expletive] on Indiana...but why are people supposed to talk about them when the topic is conference realignment??? We're not, I'm just pissed my school has become such an afterthought. Haha. No one's thought of IU since bobby choked that kid. thats not really true. I mean, no one thought of IU prior to that either. That event was perhaps only the second time since the 1970's that anyone thought of IU. I'm not sure what the other event was.
  6. all this means is that the Packers will fight through adversity and win another SB.
  7. Good bc I wasn't sure what point you were making with the alumni count anyway. Well I didn't know what your point was before that! PS, I think Minny is drunk. It's after 11am here, so I'm sure he is. just drunk on looooove..
  8. West of Puget Sound? You live in Japan? Konichiwa! No thanks. I just ate. i offa you aftanoon greetin and you spit on me!!?!?! NO SUSHI FO YOU!

  10. In total numbers? There are also exponentially more big ten alums out there bc the schools are massive (and alumnus also includes former students who don't graduate, which gives big ten schools another several hundred thousand). painting Big Ten alumns as drop-out failures is hurting my feelings, Richard. Its sooo unkind. It's not that they're all drop out failures. But if you're making an argument based on total alumni base and you're starting with numbers as skewed as ACC v big ten, I assume you're going the extra step of including people that attended those schools but didn't graduate. just say it, you have no respect for me since I live on the west side of puget sound. you've already assumed the Seattle aire-of authority.
  11. Yeah, the rumor/expectation is that um and maybe msu will drop ND entirely. I don't much care one way or the other. I like playing those schools usually but opening up those 2-3 September dates would make scheduling other quality teams infinitely easier. The big ten's insistence on playing ND in September has made it harder to play schools that will come to ND, but not when it's cold (SEC teams, primarily). but by joining the big ten and scheduling pn st, os and Michigan in November/Oct, doesn't that open up September up for those supposed wanton SEC team?

  13. So you don't think there are ACC viewers in DC due to Virginia/Maryland? Or that there will be in NYC once Syracuse goes? I sort of agree with your premise, but I'm not convinced how important/unimportant those trips really are. I dont think the ACC fans are what he's referring to, its the ND fans, or potential ND fans
  14. just cant survive with the big boys, can you? We've been trying to keep pace with Minnesota for years. But their top recruits keep staying home. Like Michael Floyd, for example. And now by joining the Big Ten they won't be able to schedule Duke @ Target Field. Bye bye Michael Floyd. What are you talking about? I'm confused to. I mean, with TCF Stadium, why would either the Gophers or Irish want to play at the Twins stadium? Its not set up for football at all, and although I'm sure both teams have athletes, I dont they would make for a very competitive baseball game. It all sounds very awkward.
  15. periods, commas, anything please.
  16. educate yourself http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Kill

  18. no one cares about Kansas anyway. heey snood, didnt see you standing there...
  19. ND to Big 10 makes all the sense in the world.
  20. ho-hum. nothing new or enlightening there
  21. Buffone is horrible. I will say that Cutler overthrew a number of receivers, and that annoyed me, but there was so much more to take away from that game... Isn't Buffone strongly backing Cutler there? I think Brenedon is commenting on Buffone's lack of humanitarian work.
  22. Doug Buffone on Cutler ""I've always thought about run the football and stuff like that, and all that crap. B.S. You better be able to throw it and score. That's where it's at. When the Bears got Cutler, the people who jump all over him are ignorant. We haven't had a quarterback like him. I'd have given my right arm to play with a quarterback like him. It comes down to those two guys. Maybe (the Packers) have better receivers, who knows, this and that, we have a shot at it. The shot is not only for this year, it's for down the road.""
