Clowns. Should have been playing weeks ago.
Seriously. The Commish is a major anti-Trumper.
What in the hell did Trump say to him??
Looks like some of the minor leagues are following the major league SEC! ;)
100%.
All I see is a bunch of Antifas destroying another part of my American cultural heritage.
Sports is exactly the same as Hollywood.
There won’t be any college basketball in California, Oregon and Washington this year either.
When Trump wins, there may not be any college sports out here for several years. It could happen.
There are some good folks out west, but they are (figuratively) outgunned. I pull for Oregon State, but hate University of Oregon.
If the civil war in Oregon ever goes on, the liberals better get read good at ducking real fast, because the rednecks are the one with the teeth.
Fighting Ducks aren’t really a thing except in fantasy land.
I also will pull for Washington State, and in very limited circumstances, for Washington. Of course, if I were from Washington, I’d probably think of the Huskies the way I think of the Ducks.
Football is a proxy for politics.
With that, for all of Saban’s faults, Roll Tide and Sic Semper Tyranis. (I may have the case wrong—I wrote it initially as a nominative singular but I think it should be a dative plural)
It’s PAC-12, not PAC-10. They added Utah and Colorado several years ago. Not that I care anymore.
I agree with you but the Big10 presidents apparently do not because of the draconian testing protocols they have adopted. On top of daily antigen testing, they are also requiring baseline cardiac enzyme labs, ekgs, echocardiograms, and cardiac mris for all players, coaches, and staff. Couple this with play and practice decisions based on complicated infection ratios, those in charge of the Big10 have given themselves a path not to play.
Now what about all the players their Teams to go elsewhere? I wonder what the coaches are going to say? But better yet, I wonder what the media will say when the players complain that they are no longer welcome on the Team?
Someone got the calculator out and realized how much MONEY they were leaving on the table by NOT PLAYING!
They would never have reversed without pressure from Trump
