USC actually has more international students (mostly from Asia) than any university in the country. USC defnitely has an good reputation in Asia.

Not doubting what you're saying. There is definitely an 'asian' connection with the California schools. Just saying that "Stanford" and "Berkely" usually have a higher brand name regardless of what is reality.

Correct. But the Asian countries love their baseball and Olympic sports, and the PAC usually performs well in those sports (not so much baseball this year, but you get what I'm saying). So yeah, there could be a lot of Asian eyes watching a PAC-12 network.

Yep, and I alluded to that.

Since TrollflyinthePAC jerks off to how many people responds to his topics everyone should just ignore the troll.

I hate China as much as any American. But from what my Banker Friends tell me, Singapore right now is the place to be. But right now China is taking over even more so then Singapore and is BOOMING and is where all the money is shifting to. China = the new money center. Putting down China's wealth, right now, is foolish if you know Banking or know what you are talking about...

Most banker friends I know agree that you either want to be in New York, London, or Tokyo, and if you're anywhere else then you aren't playing in the big leagues.

China is not the new big money center, they still trade nearly all of their stocks in those 3 cities. They have a lot of amassed wealth because of dirt cheap labor bordering on slavery working for nationalized companies, but the real economies are the ones that are buying their bargain basement products despite poor quality and materials (remember the lead paint in children's toys and the Chinese drywall?). They are however being smart with their wealth and putting it into T-bonds of other countries that will pay them off in the long run and they are investing in infrastructure like bridges and dams, unlike the Arab nations. However, it will take them a century or two at this pace to have enough infrastructure to support a billion people across 3500 miles in east to west distance and over 3.7 million square miles. Of course, by that point they will have at least 2 billion people, and so they may still have 80% of their population living in abject poverty.

1) Not to mention, currently the most rich
2) In the PAC, we are like Ivy league Schools
3) And we control the Countries first and most famous of bowls
4) The PAC is the most Stable

Ok, No problem.

1)It is a fact that at this second in time, the PAC-12 has the largest TV Contract written. It it set to begin this summer, but the contract was already written a long time ago and is currently the most wealthy of all Conferences. This fact cannot in any way be disputed as I have spelled it out. It may be true that in time, the SEC may overtake us within a year, but that is to be argued of the intents and plans of such Conferences where they plan to be 2 years out or such... But right now, this moment in time, the PAC-12 has very well secured the most wealthy of TV media deals. FACT!

2)Stanford has been ranked #3 or #4 in the Nation and is Strongly considered to be a rare Ivy league School but yet existing in D-1 and participating in D-1 sports. It is the only one of it's kind in that way with blending of Academics and College Sports to the highest of levels. Just recently Stanford won the Directors cup, a culmination of points, being #1 for all Athletic Programs in D-1. I may not call us the very best Conference because the Ivy league comes up. But we are like them in many ways, but even more then them value and support big time sporting operations. To use that phrase was not my own idea. It is others who have compared us to them. But for all the D-1 Conferences, we are indeed like them in many ways academically...

3)In PAC country, we have 2 BCS Bowls in the Rose Bowl and Fiesta. But even more special is the fact that we invented the very first Bowl game, the RB, or before that was called, the Tournament East West. The idea of pitting a school from another Conference against each other at seasons end in a final game was something new. And we pit the best. In time, other "Bowls" would copy us. Even the term, "Super Bowl" is borrowed from us. And not too long ago, the RB was the it game, far exceeding the Super Bowl even, in attention and Standing. It is true that we entered into a Contract with the Big Ten quite some time ago. But that is US, inviting THEM to join us. It is our bowl. We just picked them when we did because they were the best Conference to play during then. To debate the RB being the first, and us having Control over our own bowl and event and Stadium is simply a pathetic joke to attempt...

4)Until the changing of the PAC-10 with adding Colorado and Utah and switching it to the PAC-12, our Conference had been the longest in the Country to go without a change in any way. Not to mention our long, Stable History but I can also call it stable for the fact that we have the currently most richest TV Contracts.

You have only 4 posts now. Your very first post under this name was directed to me. You are clearly an alter.

Get a life...

You seem to believe everything your so called friends say. Perhaps it's time you learned and thought on your own.
