As have I, Mr Braincase. I just don't believe most to be complete kings in the brotherhood of idiocy.
In this salvo, I'm simply calling what I believe to be a spade a spade. If I'm wrong, so be it.

Word. I don't get why people take all this shit so seriously.

It's not like any of us are out there playing the games.

I'm not super familiar with Wickedson's body of postin' work, but he seems kind of like a KU version of Hamas. That's a pretty okay thing to be imho.

Also, that should put a stop to B12 expansion for a while, right? At least long enough for Memphis, Louisville, and Cincinnati to be in the same conference again for one beautiful year? And, ideally, long enough to give Memphis time to inject horse steroids into its football program and go to the B12 with UL in 2018?

... please?

Who knows....

from CBS Sportsline article:
This new deal is based on a 10-team league and sources said it could be worth even more per school if the Big 12 expands to 11 or 12 teams.

Sounds good to me. Unless somehow the Big 12 could get ND.

I like how the Big 12 is now "saved" because of this new deal, yet two schools left and four more teams tried to leave after last year's mega FOX deal - which also was supposedly meant to save the conference after the Nubs and Buffs left.

The Big 12 is "saved" until texass decides it can get a better deal somewhere else. That's been the underlying truth since the league was formed.

kchero · 03-14-2012, 07:44 AM

It is certainly good news for the Big 12. I suppose the wild card is and will always be Texas. If they ever decide to defect or go independent the whole thing may possibly crash. Nonetheless, a good dose of stability for some of our Big 12 neighbors. With that being said, I am still pleased with Mizzou's move to the SEC. With all the drama occuring, I think it was wise to get out.

I hesitate to start this up again, but you do realize that Missouri is directly responsible for a lot of the drama, right?

lol, I know right.

Also...I wonder if ever in the history of college athletics has a conference had two teams leave and then not even a full year later the conference lands a TV media deal that actually increases the revenue per school.

Jesus. You're a freaking broken record.

Enough already.

And you're a ****ing idiot, but that's been well established.

Don't post dumbass shit like "YAY THE BIG 12 IS SAVED!!111" if you don't want to be called out for being a complete ****ing moron.

I never posted anything resembling "yay, the Big 12 is saved"

I never believed the Big 12 was in trouble. I've documented this well throughout the last 2 years or whenever any of this began.

So you're "calling me out" only comes off as pathetic.

Fly butterfly, fly... The SEC is waiting.

And that's why you are a ****ing idiot.

The Big 12 IS in trouble, and always will be until texass decides to leave.

Sure you can replace them with some nobody school, but then the conference becomes a mid-major and significantly less valuable.

No other major conference is at risk of falling to shambles based on the actions of one egomaniac school. This TV deal changes nothing.
